This was our first time eating at Parker lighthouse. We found the service excellent and the food we had was fine. My husband really enjoyed the fish and chips. However, my clams were mediocre. The Mediterranean was generous and very tasty. I did order a latte which was not great and I did return it. I certainly will return to this restaurant at a later date when I’m in the area.
