Located at the edge of Montauk Harbor, Gosman’s Topside & Inlet Cafe offers diners fresh seafood with unbeatable waterfront views. The atmosphere is casual and breezy, with an open-air deck overlooking the inlet, making it perfect for summer lunches, sunset dinners, or drinks after a beach day.
The menu focuses on classic East End seafood favorites and American coastal dishes. Start your meal with their New England Clam Chowder, creamy and rich with tender clams and potatoes, or the Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail, served chilled with a tangy cocktail sauce – both ideal appetizers on a warm day by the water.
For mains, the Lobster Roll is a must-order. Generous chunks of fresh lobster are lightly dressed in mayo and served in a toasted bun with fries – simple, fresh, and flavorful. Another popular choice is their Fried Fisherman’s Platter, which includes crispy fried shrimp, scallops, clam strips, and flounder, served with tartar sauce and coleslaw for a classic seaside feast.
If you’re in the mood for something lighter, the Grilled Tuna Sandwich is a standout, featuring a thick, perfectly seared tuna steak on a fresh roll with lettuce, tomato, and wasabi mayo. Pair your meal with a cold beer or one of their frozen cocktails like the Pina Colada for true vacation vibes.
Service at Gosman’s is friendly and efficient, keeping the laid-back, family-friendly vibe intact even during busy summer weekends. Whether you’re dining inside Topside’s nautical-themed dining room or out on the Inlet Cafe’s deck, you’ll enjoy fresh seafood and beautiful harbor views.
Gosman’s Topside & Inlet Cafe is Montauk’s go-to for classic seafood dishes, refreshing drinks, and an unbeatable waterfront ambiance, making it a must-visit for locals, tourists, and seafood lovers spending time on the East End.
