The Mark Clam Bar
If it seems like the red-and-white checkered accessories and breezy, homemade-looking shack were made to be posted, well…they probably were. It will look good on your feed, but the food is satisfying on its own—this not-so-humble shack is serving up fresh lobster rolls with cherry tomatoes and kicky sriracha mayo and baked littleneck clams with garlic butter and BBQ sauce, along with roadside sides like corn with lime and crispy hand-cut fries.
We love it for a long, late summer lunch, when you can sip a Bloody Mary, which is served here either with or without an oyster and caviar, or an Aperol spritz. And for dessert, a simple farmstand 'bowl of strawberries' is reimagined with berry sorbet, honey brioche and a lime meringue. That'll cost $21—this is almost the Hamptons, after all.
The drinks: Kick back with a Montauk Summer Ale or treat yourself to an outrageously extravagant $45 Bloody Mary.

The Chase's Mark Labbett shares dating fears in heartbreaking admission
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Mark Labbett has opened up about his deeply personal dating struggles, admitting he's remained "single for most of his life" and describing himself as "quite a late developer." The 59-year-old, who's become a household name on The Chase since 2009, has now signed up for the upcoming series of Celebs Go Dating on Channel 4. Known as 'The Beast' on the ITV show, Mark, who recently had a health scare, stands as one of the original 'Chasers' alongside Shaun Wallace. Later on, fans saw Anne Hegerty, Paul Sinha, Jenny Ryan and Darragh Ennis join the team. Following his rise to fame on the ITV quiz programme, Mark has also captured public attention through his remarkable weight loss transformation, and has recently been romantically linked with showbiz presenter Hayley Palmer. (Image: ITV) In an exclusive conversation with Express Online, Mark candidly discussed his involvement in the dating programme and reflected on his romantic experiences during his younger days, reports the Express. "I've never done television like this before, so it was a chance to branch out a little bit and see what it's like on the other side of the TV business, and I think it's fair to say it was a real eye opener," Mark confessed. "In fairness, I've been single most of my life, and you get very comfortable about being single, so I'm trying to put it in words. It's a new experience. I thought, 'Let's give it a try.'" (Image: Channel 4) When pressed about his very first romantic encounter, Mark disclosed: "Going back to Oxford [University] because I was quite a late developer, and let's just say it didn't last long, and we'll leave it at that." Before joining the programme, Mark had been in a relationship with entertainment presenter Hayley Palmer. The duo shared an intense year-long romance but shocked fans when they revealed their separation mere days before reaching their one-year milestone. Mark allegedly terminated their relationship via telephone call, which Hayley described as "really hard." (Image: ITV) The former pair had made an appearance on Loose Women just days prior to Mark ending things during a brief three-minute conversation in May 2024. Hayley previously told MailOnline, "I never thought in a million years he'd go on a dating show after such a painful and public breakup." "I genuinely wish him well. I am excited for him to start a new chapter in his life, just like I am." The new series of Celebs Go Dating launches at 9pm on E4.

The Chase star Mark Labbett 'wants contract changed' after gruelling filming schedule
The Chase star Mark Labbett has revealed that following his stint on Celebs Go Dating and the gruelling hours, there's one thing he's going to change in his TV contracts. Mark Labbett has revealed that he got 'frustrated' on the set of Celebs Go Dating amid the show's long filming hours, leading to him apologising to his co-stars for bursts of anger on set. The Chase star told Mirror that despite having spent 16 years on television, he found himself struggling with the demands of filming reality TV, which is much less structured than the quiz show he's used to. "I'm used to being in a pre-planned environment on The Chase, where timings are strict, but reality TV can go on for longer and the days end up ending later than you think," he explains. "For me, the one thing I found was that you need a social battery recharge, and as someone on the spectrum, that's something I really need," continues Mark. He previously shared that he believes he is on the autism spectrum but hasn't had a confirmed diagnosis. It comes after filming for the show was halted as Mark was hit on a health scare on set. Admitting that the long hours got the better of him, the trivia whiz - who is also known as The Beast - continues, "I got quite grumpy on set. I did apologise to everyone, but, in the future, I'd definitely have it in my contract that I need breaks to have a nap and recharge." "I'm very used to doing The Chase where it runs like clockwork, but coming into a location-based reality show where timing is a lot more flexible, like I said, I got moody. I'm also diabetic, so, I wear a glucose monitor and on one of the nights, my glucose level went off the scale," says Mark, as his co-star Kerry Katona interjects, "And Mark went off the scale too!" "Yeah, I did. And I did apologise to everyone afterwards, but, I realised that maybe that's happening in my personal life also - when I can lose it a little. So, that was a learning curve." The couple split in May 2024, just a week after celebrating their one year anniversary. P rior to his relationship with Hayley, Mark was married for seven years to Katie Labbett, and shares son Lawrence, who was born in 2018, with her. The former couple, who discovered they are second cousins years into the relationship, parted ways in 2020.

ITV The Chase's Mark Labbett hit by health scare on Celebs Go Dating
Mark Labbett dives back into the dating pool in Celebs Go Dating. But one health-related incident led him to experience a terrifying moment behind the scenes of the C4 show. Celebs Go Dating has returned to screens for its 14th series, as the popular reality dating show gets underway. Relationship experts Anna Williamson, Dr Tara Suwinyattichaiporn and Paul C Brunson are back at the agency. And of course, not forgetting everyone's favourite receptionist, Tom Read Wilson. Among the stars seeking love on Celebs Go Dating is The Chase star Mark Labbett. "I've been single for most of my life," he admits. "I'm a little bit on the spectrum." Mark, famed for his portrayal of The Beast on ITV quiz show The Chase, confesses that interpreting human signals is far more challenging than answering quiz questions. "Facts are easy, people are complicated." A health scare related to diabetes added an extra layer of difficulty to filming for the television star, as reported by the Mirror. "One night, I had a hypoglycaemic attack," he reveals. "I might have been a bit grumpy that night. I apologised to everyone after." Mark explained that a nap on set aided his recovery. However, the real surprise came when the agents asked him to interpret social cues. "I went, 'What do you mean?,'" he recalls. "'You don't notice people's emotions when in the room? ,' and I said no. There was shock on both sides." Meanwhile, Anna Williamson was delighted to return to the Channel 4 reality series. The newest season of Celebs Go Dating has had an exotic twist, as the celebrities embark on their dating adventures with a trip to Ibiza. "Get your popcorn ready," Anna teases. "We have a 'new' agency this series. We've got amazing celebrities who are so different. They each brought such different challenges for us coaches to work on." The new series will welcome some familiar faces from the showbiz world, including Love Island's Olivia Hawkins, Too Hot To Handle's Louis Russell, The Sandman's Donna Preston, and Made In Chelsea's Sam Prince are all set to embark on their journeys alongside Mark. Joining them are television personality and autism advocate Christine McGuinness, singer and reality star Kerry Katona, who is making a comeback to the show after six years, and S Club 7's Jon Lee. "The challenge this year was trying to keep up with the celebrities and their dating prowess," Anna admits. "It was quite challenging to help some of our celebrities unlearn certain behaviours. Some of them didn't know how to even walk into a date and execute it appropriately." Anna, Tara, and Paul will be on hand once more in guiding the celebs as they navigate through their dates, spotting any detrimental patterns. "We let things play out," Anna reveals. "They feel emotional, tearful – that's part of the process. It's a very important part of the work. When we get to our vulnerable side, we start to look at what needs to be done." The journey can be difficult, especially when dealing with high-profile celebs. "With celebrities, they are typically very guarded," Anna highlights. "They've usually lost a bit of faith in the dating world because they've been burnt a lot along the way. Their dating pool tends to be smaller because they tend to date more within their celebrity been burnt by people selling stories or that haven't been dating them for genuine reasons. They can be a bit guarded and jaded." Regarding what lies ahead, Anna holds ambitious expectations for the programme. "Pete Wicks has been on three times, we may as well have Sam (Thompson) on three times," she remarks. However, her true desire is for a reunion. "I would love to do an All Stars version of Celebs Go Dating," she reveals. "Paul and I are always talking about this, because we've had so many celebrities come through our doors. We are always in touch with them."
