Our Story

Where Marblehead's
best catch comes ashore

For over three decades, Driftwood has been a fixture on Marblehead's Front Street — the kind of place where regulars know the captain by name and the lobster roll arrives just as the fog lifts off the harbor.

We started with a simple belief: that the best seafood needs no pretense. Just the day's catch, a fire, and a view worth dining for. Every dish on our menu tells the story of this coast — from the rocky shores where our clams are hand-dived to the boats that bring in the day's catch before dawn.

Whether you're a lifelong Marblheader or just passing through, we promise you a meal that tastes like this town — salt-kissed, honest, and made with care.
