    Celebrity Pizza and Dairy Bar

    Published: Aug 7, 2009 · Modified: Oct 12, 2017 by Jennifer Che

    Celebrity Pizza and Dairy Bar looks like one of those seafood shacks that should belong on a beach near a seaside town somewhere. They serve 24 flavors of soft serve ice cream, pizza, sandwiches, and various types of fried seafood / lobster rolls.

    Interestingly enough, it's smack in the middle of Watertown, Massachusetts, a town about 20 minutes outside of Boston. On a nice day, you can sit at the picnic benches right outside the shack, where you can almost feel like you're at a seaside town, just without the ocean. 😛

    Some of the fried seafood at Celebrity is surprisingly good. The scallops were very sweet and lightly fried in a way that was not too greasy. The onion rings were good too. The fries were mediocre, and seemed more like a bed on which the seafood could rest than anything else. The rest of the seafood was fine, although nothing special.

    This is a great lobster roll, and a surprising value at only $11.99. The bread is nicely toasted, and they actually don't use much mayo, which keeps the sandwich pure with its fresh, sweet lobster taste. I highly enjoyed this sandwich and would order it again.
    The soft serve is solid, though not super interesting. I tried the creamsicle (orange sorbet and vanilla). The mix of the two different textures (sherbet + ice cream) threw me off guard, and I didn't like it that much. The next time I just got vanilla, which tasted no different than McDonalds but cost twice as much.

    I think what I should have done is either try one of the 24 interesting flavors or try a chocolate dipped cone, which looks kind of fun. Maybe next time.

    Two downsides of this place

    1. No public restrooms. So . . make sure you go before coming, otherwise you might be a bit uncomfortable!

    2. Cash only, although there is an ATM right inside the restaurant
    This is a fun, very reasonably priced place for lunch. If you don't feel like driving all the way to a seaside town for some fried seafood and soft serve, you can head to Watertown and get a pretty solid version of the same.
