Seafood & Cones

Seafood and Cones – Route 138, Raynham, MA ⭐️ Overall: 2.5/5 🧑‍🍳 Service: 4/5 | 🍽 Food: 2/5 | 🌤 Atmosphere: 3.5/5 Visited on a Sunday afternoon around 3 p.m. Outdoor seating was available under a covered area with the walls down, which helped keep things comfortable. The place looked clean—even the restrooms—but I didn’t see the picnic tables being wiped down between guests. I did notice staff actively emptying trash, which was a plus. The staff was very friendly, and there was music playing over the speakers. However, when your name is called for pickup, it’s more like a jump scare. Everyone jumped. I ordered clam cakes and chowder. The clam cakes were great—crispy, flavorful, and generously portioned. The chowder, on the other hand, was a disappointment. It tasted like it had been made with sour milk—or maybe sour cream. I know that taste; I worked in a dairy. I took two spoonfuls. The first made me pause. The second confirmed something was off. I didn’t find a single clam in it. Whatever else was in there—possibly crab or imitation crab—it wasn’t what I came for. My wife, who has a gluten allergy, ordered the gluten-free chicken tenders. They looked undercooked at first, but it turns out the batter just doesn’t brown the same way. She said they were very good. The menu has a surprisingly large number of gluten-free options. That said, I don’t understand the $2 upcharge for something that doesn’t include gluten. Feels like getting less and paying more. We didn’t try the ice cream side of the business, and the Coke we had was flat. Later, someone we know mentioned they’d also been there and had decided not to warn us ahead of time. She had found her fries overcooked. I reminded her that with places like this, you’re often at the mercy of whoever’s running the fryer that day. Sometimes you get someone with skill; sometimes you’re just getting someone else’s food learning curve. Would I return? Personally, no. Maybe I’d try the ice cream someday if the price made sense, but overall, I’d rather just scoop my own at home. I’m not warning others away—but I can’t recommend it either. You might have a better experience.

Indoor and out door seating, all most items can be done gluten free. We had GF boom boom shrimp. The sauce was on point and the gf breading was unreal, you'd never know. Breaded and GF fish an chips were both great. Wait staff was friendly and the chef even came out to say hello and share some info on his recipes. I look forward to making this my regular spot for seafood and great ice cream.
