Woodman's is an awful tourist trap—I've got a whole story on that—but their chowder, when I got it twice, was not thick at all.

Lord's Harborside-now-Hobb's used to have incredible chowder in the old, thin broth, tradition. Loaded with actual seafood rather than just potatoes and celery.

I like most chowders, though—it's like pizza to me.

*Oh! To add: Yankee Smokehouse's corn chowder is a local fave chowder.
