The drawbridge in Perkins cove is a big draw for photographers and artists too. One of my uncles worked a billies and we’d stop in during off season for a nice meal every now and again. I was very pleasant experience sitting oceanside having a great meal. Prices are a bit high, but we didn’t go often and saved up for it. As kids, we would finish the meal early, and wander outside tO run along the rocks by marginal way, play down by the docks, etc. Was a great place to grow up
The Perkins Cove lobster shack is pretty good, too.
