One of our favorite restaurants, The Back Eddy in Westport, Massachusetts, is open for the 2025 season!

On the waterfront on the Westport River, they’ve been serving fantastic fresh seafood for years.

When the weather gets warmer, they open top their outdoor seating area, which includes a long dock with extra seating, a grill, and an outdoor bar. It’s the place to be in the summertime.

We’ve been friends with the staff of the Back Eddy for many years. We even brought our daughter, Ava, to the Back Eddy and sat her baby basket at the bar when she was only 11 days old! She’s been a regular ever since.

You know a place is great when the staff returns year after year, and though this place gets incredibly busy in the summer months, it’s clear that the staff are friends, and they treat their customers as friends as well. We were there recently for opening weekend, and it was as if long lost friends saw each other for the first time…hugs all around.

The menu offers variety with weekly specials, and I’ve probably had everything on the menu at least three times over the years. Nothing disappoints.

If you’re in the neighborhood of Horseneck Beach in Westport, Massachusetts this summer, you owe it to yourself to stop at The Back Eddy for for, cocktails, and fun in the sun!
