Burke's Seafood is a family owned and operated Mom & Pop Seafood shop patronized by numerous North Quincy locals that has been open in the neighborhood for 30 years without changing hands. Owners Dick & Margaret Burke run the operation and greet their customers by name. Dick buys whole, fresh fish daily and fillets the catch by hand for retail sale in their fishmonger capacity. They have salmon, tuna, haddock, scallops, and loads of fresh, live lobsters. Margaret oversees the kitchen, where they serve cooked seafood dishes, including New England favorites like steamed lobster and their hand made stuffed quahogs. They also make their own delicious clam chowder, and serve a host of fried seafood offerings, from clams to scallops to fish & chips. Family combo platters combining their various offerings are also available, as is their Lobster Boil in a Can. As of spring 2009, Burke's is set to increase its seating capacity substantially as it takes over a vacant space next door. This will allow for up to 19 diners to eat inside the establishment. During seasonable weather, they also offer some outdoor seating. Forthcoming promotions for this expansion and their 30th anniversary in business will be announced soon.
