Dining Outside the Home: Schaefer’s Spouter Tavern in Mystic, Connecticut! For perfect al fresco dining in the heart of Mystic Seaport Museum’s seafaring village, choose a table outside under the trees. Take a breath of fresh air as you gaze at the flagship, Charles W. Morgan, an American wooden whaling ship built in 1841. She’s a National Historic Landmark, you know, now docked in Chubb’s Wharf. That’s quite a view. But back to the tavern. For those who may not be familiar, the tavern is named after one mentioned in Melville’s “Moby Dick”. The Museum re-created it as a working exhibit in 1956. As for lunch, I highly recommend the Lobster Roll, served on a split bun with chunks of fresh lobster meat practically overflowing onto the plate. Add a bottle of Mystic River IPA for a mild, earthy, citrus flavor that will go down like a welcome treat for the palate.

I visited there many years ago and enjoyed everything about it with a girl-friend. Just recently a relative told me about just having gone there and thought it was so cool and the restaurant had some great menu items! Now I want to visit again after getting two indicators!
Thank you Gail! 🌿🌱🍃🍅 🤗

He was there on business and I am retired, so it was a working vacation. We loved it and want to go back. Unfortunately, our June trip was cancelled due to covid-19.

I’m feeling the same pain of cancelled plans. Hopefully, we’ll all be gallivanting around again soon.
