One of the Best New Hampshire Clam Stands Has Announced Opening Day for 2026 Season
This time of year makes New Englanders so happy for so many reasons. The daffodils are sprouting out from their Winter beds, the birds chirp in the morning and Ceal's in Seabrook makes their announcement that they will open soon.
This NH Clam Shack Has Been Women Owned for Four Generations
Ceal's is female owned and has been that way for four generations. The original owner didn't want to rely on a man for her money, God love her. At that time to even think that there was another way other than to bat your eyes at a man, is to be applauded.

Ceal's announced their opening day on their Facebook page.
Opening weekend is Friday, May 22nd at 4:30pm and I bet there will be a line! After that, their weekend hours will be:
- Fridays, 4:30 - 8pm
- Saturdays 11:30a - 8pm
- Sundays: 11:30 - 7pm
They are located just up the road from Hampton at 54 River Street, Seabrook Beach, NH.
Some comments on their Facebook page really each the sentiment of anyone you talk to about Ceal's:
Wish you opened sooner. Love your clams. My favorite place for years. I can't wait!
Remember when you go to Ceal's, make sure you get the onion rings. Their clams are amazing, there is no doubt, but the onion rings are sometimes the craving that I am looking for and no other place can match 'em. Holy moly, they're good.
