If you're looking for fresh, sweet, and very clean shellfish this is the best place to go. The customer service was very pleasant and helpful. I was staying at a airbnb near Popham Beach when I found this gem. Im so very glad I did!

The folks at the Clam Hunter are kind, pleasant, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about not only their products, but about the area as well.I've been coming to this part of the world my whole life and have *never* had a bad experience with The Clam Hunter, plus their claim of the cleanest clams around is absolutely true. I don't know what kind of mollusk magic is happening here, but I am glad to be its beneficiary.

This place was an absolute find on our recent Phippsburg vacation. Friendly person, shared lots of info about their products and the history of the business. The clams were honestly the best I have ever had; steamed for just a couple of minutes in beer ( I donated a can of 'The Thirsty Botanist' from Boothbay Brewing to the cause, another great find! ) sweet, soft and entirely grit free. Just amazing. My only regret was I only ordered a pound between us; dont be a cheapskate like me, order a pound per person, you wont regret it. And the prices are very reasonable. Also got a half dozen oysters which did not disappoint either. We will be back.

******BEST CLAMS EVER*********World famous grit free clams is what the white board on the door says, and I was curious if theyd actually be sand free. I had 30 clams, and there was not a single spec of sand! Clams are so much better when you do not need to worry about biting into sand every bite!The prices at Clam Hunter are amazing, especially since they really do have the best clams around. They are also near Bath, just a 2 minute drive into Phippsburg. Def check them out!

Absolutely fantastic oysters! If you aren’t getting your oysters or clams from here then you are missing out.

These clams were worth the 5 hour drive from Albany alone! Hadn't had steamers like these before. Recommend adding white white when steaming. Owner was very personable and proud of his business. Highly recommended!

Checked this place out for the first time after having learned of its value and recommendation from an old friend of mine. Very good selection of real Maine clams, quahogs, and oysters all fresh. Native woman who seemed delighted to talk to us from her established business from a small trailer with an old car beside.

the best steamer clams i've ever had. as other reviewers have said, they were entirely clean of sand and grit! the runestone oysters were also some of the best i've ever tasted. both were spectacularly flavorful, and reasonably priced. will definitely be back next time we are in the area. can't recommend highly enough!

Very welcoming and they are very generous of their time explaining what they do. Best clams and quahogs ever! They really care in offering a top notch product. The clams had absolutely no sand in them, thanks to the long process they carefully undertake.

Steamer clams and oysters are kept in circulated salt water tanks that not only keep the product fresh, but purge the steamers so you get clean meat and no grit. Super products.

Terry (owner) helped us decide which clams we wanted to buy (we were visiting from NH and weren't sure). His shop has a sterile-seawater cleaning system that gets all of the grit out of the clams. He's been in the business for 43 and is very knowledgeable. If you're looking for fresh local clams, oysters, or lobster to prepare at home, this is the place!

Terry and Sally have the best clams in New England. I've never gotten a quahog from them that didn't sing within a few minutes in the steam. Better than anything.

Absolutely the cleanest clams ever! Excellent selection of delicious oysters. Very nice folks. It was worth the move to Phippsburg to be in the same neighborhood.

The absolute best! 0 sand in the clams and many oyster varieties to choose from. We go every week that we are in Maine!
