Review of Woodman's of Essex

While visiting family in Massachusetts, we stopped by to check out Woodman’s. Mostly because they advertised having the best gluten free clam strips and fried seafood. I was skeptical. Most gluten-free breading options are subpar. But I’m happy to say it was everything I had hoped it to be and more. I got the clam strips. Not only were they a superb gluten-free breading but probably THE BEST clam strips I have EVER had in my life (even those I used to eat before having to go GF). Amazing! It was one of the highlights of my trip… I’m kind of a foodie. Simply divine!

Ps… portions are very generous.
