Aunt Carrie's is a seafood restaurant in the Point Judith neighborhood of Narragansett, Rhode Island, opened in 1920 by Carrie and Ulysses Cooper. In 1994, Carrie's grandson Bill died; since then, his wife and now their two daughters run the restaurant.[1]
Family legend claims that the clam cake was invented here when Carrie Cooper added fresh clams to the corn fritters.[2][3]
Diners, Drive-ins and Dives featured the shack on October 29, 2012.[2][4][5] Taste of America on the Travel Channel also featured Aunt Carrie's.[6]
In 2013, Fodor's wrote about Aunt Carrie's in its guidebook, saying "its peerless location and unpretentious atmosphere are the main draws, along with comfortable favorites like clam cakes, steamers, and fish-and-chips."[7]
