Often thought of as the New England clam chowder, this creamy version is well represented at places as diverse as inns and clam shacks. The Bite’s version is nicely herbed and thickened (not floury), and chock-full of hard-shell clams. Take it to the beach and eat it while looking out at Menemsha Bight.

Captain Parker’s Pub in West Yarmouth, MA has terrific white

The Bite has the best chowder we have ever had. We visit the Vineyard every summer, and must get food from The Bite several times for a successful vacation.
