Hello!
Just want to let everyone know we will be opening for the season on May 14th.
Our spring hours will be Friday 4-8,Saturday 11:30-8,Sunday 11:30-7.
We’ve had a late start. The new septic install has set us back a little. No worries. We start slinging clams Saturday morning. Looking forward to seeing old friends and familiar faces.

Visited Pops on Saturday, May 21st. As usual, the service, quality, and quantity of clams were excellent! Sat upstairs and enjoyed the afternoon sun and temperatures....... I can safely say the best clams anywhere!

Does anyone know what the days and hours will be beginning after Memorial Day weekend?

School is still in session, so I would anticipate they will only be open weekends until the kids are out of school.

Our spring hours are as follows.
Friday’s 4:00-8
Saturday’s 11:30-8
Sunday’s 11:30-7
These hours will continue until about the third week of June. At that time we will start our summer hours. One caveat,we will be open Memorial Day 11:30-7.
Thanks

I pray—PRAY—that Pop's keeps with the formula for the rest of my life.

I've seen soooo many businesses go bad because they lost their way, but each season Pop's is spot on—it really is the perfect mom-and-pop.

Today's seafood plate, for $35, is EXACTLY the quality and quantity I've enjoyed since we first discovered it in 2013, and every time I visit alone, with my family, or with my friends, I walk away thrilled (and full).

My only gripe: today, while apportioning the remaining eight pieces of seafood, I mistook a haddock nugget for a scallop and was disappointed to have saved it for the last bite (haddock obviously being the least interesting)!

Their little lobster roll in a buttered hot dog bun is to die for. Get two.

Went to Markey's with my bros a couple weeks ago—cost was $42 for a seafood platter WITH NO SHRIMPS! $13 for a side of shrimps and $5 for a soda = $60 + tax.

Brown's, literally across the street, is something like $10 cheaper. We were a Markey's family for 35+ years, but they've killed the goose.
