Brophy Bros. has served its award-winning New England clam chowder on the Santa Barbara harbour dock since 1986, and it has become the defining version of the dish in the city: thick, cream-forward, loaded with clams and chunks of potato, with the marine air of the harbour as the seasoning no recipe can replicate. The full-length bar overlooking the marina is the traditional context.
New England clam chowder arrived in Santa Barbara via the fishing community's connections to East Coast and Pacific Northwest seafood traditions.
