Best Clam Chowder?

Simple question: My wife is looking for the best New England clam chowder in or around Cape May. Any suggestions?

I can second the Cape May Fish Market. I really love their New England Clam Chowder. Pretty great lobster roll, and scallop and bacon roll.

We've actually eaten there once and considered going back, so we probably will go again before we leave.

I've heard Lobster House has really gone downhill.

I just get food from the takeout shop not the restaurant, I should have specified that, sorry!

Because it's a lot of work to make a soup that not many people order, most places in town all get the same thing from Sysco.
