"I want to first say Thank You for the amazing experience! My girlfriend recommended this place which I’ve driven by so many times but have never gone in. Some nice features is that they are located across from Alewife Station which gives access to the redline. It also is located right at the start of route 2 and alewife parkway for even more convenience. There are multiple parking lots outside which means no hassle to find parking! The occasion was my 22nd birthday and we decided to go and have seafood here at Summer Shack! The hostess’s were very kind as they sat us further away from what seemed to be a work party at the bar section that were a bit loud. I find this courteous to the guests as it shows respect to parties who would prefer to avoid larger crowds. The drinks were great and the appetizers were delicious! We started off with clams and oysters both on the half shell. All the raw seafood was FRESH and flavorful! I’ve always been a seafood guy and it was my special day so I got a 1 1/2 pound lobster which was full of meat! For the people who are like “it’s too much work to get the meat out and it’s too messy” please, just order off the kids menu if you want to complain. Some of us enjoy the excitement in eating lobster. For dessert, i got a slice of cheesecake with a candle to blow out on top which was an amazing touch! We also had a youngster with us which they provided coloring paper and extra napkins which is another thumbs up for me! I would like to thank the Summer Shack staff for such an amazing 22nd birthday experience and would highly recommend for any celebration or just a night out! Look forward to coming back! best regards, Benjamin P."

"I worked here in 2021 and several things happened. 1. I got into a minor car accident while backing up my car to head out on a delivery. My car hit a car that was owned by the family running the neighboring store. They were very nice and understanding about it. The parking area behind the shops is absolutely horrid to pull in and out of. Theres no parking lines, there’s dumpsters in weird places, and blind spots all over. I had several other near-collisions during the three months I worked there. When I was exchanging insurance info with the owner of the car I backed into, the owner of the Cottage came outside and yelled at me for standing around talking to people when I was supposed to be going to deliver a pizza. When I explained what just happened, she asked me to just give the pizza to the other driver so he could deliver it. No consideration for the accident or for me. 2. I had some kind of weird stalker situation going on. Someone came to the shop while I was out on a delivery and told one of the owners that I was “suicidal on Instagram” this was completely false. I don’t know who knew where I worked or why this person would tell my bosses that I was having thoughts of harming myself, but the boss refused to tell me who came in and said that about me. So now I don’t know who the crazy stalker is. 3. I quit two weeks after the car accident when another delivery driver almost hit me head-on while he was leaving and I was entering the parking lot. The food is okay. It’s not bad. But working here was unpleasant. The woman who owns this place is extremely bad tempered and rude."
