Great Place to eat! Food and Service are beyond excellent! The Seafood chowder is very good, size-wise it's average, I had as an appetizer. Anything you find on the menu you won't be disappointed!

Great seafood. I had delicious oysters, prosecco and halibut. Service is warm & friendly. They happily split the bill between 3 families.

We had a great evening at Shelter! The chef's feature (duck breast) was excellent, my girlfriend's shrimp & mussel spaghetti was also delicious! Fantastic friendly service! Cheers from Belgium.

Start with the chowder (unique style, very delicious). Continue with amazing "surf bowl" with wild salmon. Finish your food journey with warm apple pie. Let me know if you like this taste adventure.

Get a seat on the patio for spectacular views while you eat. Lots of fresh seafood, and the surf bowl can be made vegan. Great wine selection, too.

Had a chèvre chaud salad that was weirdly good. Weirdly because the salad leaves were hard to chew, but the meal was cray tasty. The TUCG apple crumble vanilla ice was awesome too. Beautiful place
