Our Story

Clam Haven has been a beloved part of Southern New Hampshire for over 60 years, offering fresh seafood, ice cream, and local charm. Founded by Rick Metts, it became a favorite for Derry locals and visitors. In 2020, Lisa DeSisto, a longtime Derry resident and owner of Rig A Tony’s Italian Takeout, took over. Lisa and her team proudly uphold the traditions, serving the same classic dishes and creating a welcoming spot where families can relax and enjoy a great meal.

When you visit Clam Haven, you’re stepping into a place that feels like home. From lobster rolls to burgers, sandwiches, chicken tenders, and fish dishes, there’s always something comforting to enjoy. Don’t forget the crowd-pleasing onion rings, salads, and our famous hot dog special! Whether you want a quick bite or a sit-down meal with friends and family, Clam Haven is where memories are made—over fresh seafood, a classic burger and fries, or one of our signature hot dogs.

That’s a wrap on our 2024 season, seafood lovers! 🦞 We’re officially closing up shop and trading in Seafood for Italian over at Rig A' Tony's Italian Takeout down the street. Huge thanks to everyone who cracked a claw, dunked a fry, or just stopped by to say hi this year. Can’t wait to sea you all in 2025 for even more ocean goodness! 🌊 Until next season!
