We met some friends for dinner at the Happy Clam. It was a very interesting place, right down to the working rotary phone. The menu is a mix of seafood and German dishes, which we were eager to try.

What Joe Ogden doesn't like about The Happy Clam:
We used to love this place and went there frequently. 2 visits ago we were told rudely to move our truck for the saloon parking. 2 people with us were handicapped. Then we were told the table we picked was for parties of 8. We were a party of 7. Kinda bizarre seeing that the place was pretty empty. Then, our last visit Jackie had her usual, fried clams and got very sick on the way home that lasted for days. We are do... View all feedback.
Excellent food and service! Great selection of seafood and German food. I had the baked haddock topped with crab and really liked it. Good beer selection as well.
My family and I have been visiting Tenants Harbor every summer for over 10 years and we look forward to the Happy Clam each year. It?s become a tradition for us, even more important than Marshall Point lighthouse or Drift In beach. The drinks are always cold, the food is always great, and the new bar in the back is fantastic. I highly recommend a night of Karaoke!
The german food here is outstanding! I got the crab roll and ended up not liking it very much but I took a few bites off of the other plates at my table and the german food was crazy good! Definitely go for the jeager schnitzel and then finish off with the blueberry ice cream. The staff was awesome and the chef was super nice too!

The pork was delicious, flavorful tender. The red cabbage was also delicious, the spaetzle was an unusual yellow and bland. They also had German beers. Next time we will try a seafood dish.
I had a number of restaurants flagged to try on my trip to Maine. This was not one of them. I wound up here purely by circumstance, but it was better than any of the ?recommended? restaurants at which I ate! The clam roll was phenomenal!! Great flavor and the clams had been properly cleaned, cooked, and shucked, which is more than I can say for the ?famous? Moody?s down the road. The service was super friendly and accommodating. Add The Happy Clam to your ?must visit? list!
