The clam chowder and clam cakes hit the spot. A good amount of clams in the chowder and the clam cakes were tasty and hot. No need to drive to Providence when Mickey G’s is right down the street.

You’ve probably strolled past Mickey G’s chowder and clam cake truck at every RI fair and festival you’ve ever attended — from Foster Old Home Days, to Woonsocket’s Autumn Fest to Johnston’s Apple Festival — without giving them much thought.(Fair food came be notoriously hit or miss, and can sometimes turn a fun lunch into an unfortunate digestive misadventure.) So as you travel from fair to festival all summer and fall, keep your eyes peeled for the best chowder and clam cakes you’re going to find. But don’t expect a gourmet meal like you get in these new foofy, snooty, trendy food trucks. Mickey G’s features old-school chowder and clam cakes the way they were supposed to be made — in mass quantity by a veteran cook with buckets of fresh clams and juice and a well-worn fry-o-later. It’s the best comfort food you are likely to find all year served in a styrofoam bowl with a plastic spoon. And keep your eye on the newspaper, too. Mickey G’s provides the chowder and clam cakes for many civic fundraisers like schools, scout troops and churches. Traditional, great, gritty, local food for a good cause. How do you beat that?
