Chickadee has been on my list for quite some time and I’ve never been there but have only heard good things about it from trusted friends.
Around the corner from Woods Hill, there is a newish staircase feature thing-y which has a public bathroom and also an oyster bar slated for the ground floor. The last time we were there sometime towards the end of the summer it was not open yet but there was a sign in the window. I can’t remember what it said. Wonder what’s going on there.
There’s also the Nantucket Lola Burger Seaport edition but I think that’s fast casual. We walked by it but didn’t look inside. I’ve eaten at the Nantucket location and I don’t see what the fuss is all those people can’t be wrong, can they? 75 Liberty has a nice location but when we ate there 4 years ago or so it was just OK food-wise, but my ultra-wealthy BIL from Greenwich, who has the palate of a 13 year-old, loved it. Last time we went to the Seaport this summer, we got take-out from Yankee lobster. Brown-bagged beer and wine on the seaplane dock. Because that’s how we roll. I’m pretty sure that would not work for you and your out of town guests.
The Seaport deserves better places such as the Chickadees / Oak + Rowans of the world.
