Chicken Restaurants in Massachusetts
When Guy Fieri brought the Triple D crew to Massachusetts in 2010, he uncovered a gem in the heart of Salem that proved the Bay State knows its way around chicken. The Lobster Shanty, despite its seafood-forward name, impressed Fieri with its bold chicken preparations that had locals lining up for more, earning a solid 4.3-star rating from devoted fans.
Massachusetts may not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of legendary chicken joints, but this Salem standout showed that New England’s culinary scene extends far beyond clam chowder and lobster rolls. Unfortunately, like many beloved spots featured on the show, The Lobster Shanty has since closed its doors, making it a bittersweet reminder of the fleeting nature of restaurant life. For those who experienced it during its run, the memories of Guy’s visit and those unforgettable chicken dishes live on as part of Flavortown history in the Commonwealth.
