Cool Like an Islander recommendation #4

This is another one I will have to scan in later, ignore the graphic. I discovered this problem when making my craft faire list -- some of the coolest places do not have websites!

Larsen's Fish Market in Menempsha is one of the best places to get seafood on the Island. One side faces the street and the other side is the dock where the big fishing boats like the Unicorn tie up. Very fresh.

When you hear certain names on the Island you know that person is from a family who has been there for generations upon generations. Mayhew, Whiting, and Larsen are a few of these. Having a T-Shirt that says Larsen on it... there you go. Instant piece of the community.

One of the best things about the fish market (besides the people running it, who are awesome and well loved and respected in the community) is that they will cook up certain items like Lobster, Steamers, Stuffed Quahogs, or raw bar right there for you and you can take it over to the beach and watch the sunset. After that take a walk down to the Galley, across from the Homeport Restaurant, and get a softserve ice cream cone with jimmies. Life does not get much better than this. (via Trip Advisor)
