Summer Shack a Dispiriting, Expensive, Mid-Week Visit (Fresh Pond, Cambridge, MA)

I’m afraid the Summer Shack’s been a ghost of itself for a long time now

yep, a ghost for possibly 20 years.

Never mind…didn’t read the original post :melting_face:

I’ve eaten at the Boston location on occasion. It’s right near my office and it’s generally quiet and empty (perhaps for good reason), so it’s a nice choice for a lunch meeting. I think the food is fairly decent; certainly far from exciting or special, but consistent and IMO not bad in any way. Overpriced, possibly, but everything is at this point; and it’s at a much lower price tier than most of the other seafood places in the area. Atmosphere is meh. On balance, while I wouldn’t visit for a special occasion, I think it’s a fine choice for a quick meal in the area…and still better than Legal in just about every way, for what that’s worth.

I think I posted about a weird terrible office Christmas party there just last December? Anyways, it was weird and terrible.
