We are not from here and did not realize that this was for pick up. But husband got the haddock which was excellent with the old bag fries. I got the Compo Lobster Sandwich with avocado salad and plain fries. Right off the bat the bread was soggy and falling apart and the fries were cold and flavorless. I just scrapped off the sandwich filling off the bread and ate it. There were a couple of pieces of lobster that was overcooked. There were two girls working the counter - but they have no customer service skills.

A very good lobster roll. Not a lobster salad roll, but all claw meat chunks (which is fine with me although I like both). Good amount of meat for the price. Only complaint is it is completely soaked in Mayo, a lighter touch of mayo would be nice. Very nice and friendly staff.

Lobster maccaroni and cheese should not be made using velvetta or american cheese! French fries should not be served luke warm and limp, and cold lobster roll should not be served with just a piece of lettuce and mayonnaise. It's not like they were so busy either, we went at 4:30 pm, no one in the place but us. Disappointed that others have given it such good reviews. We won't be back.

Vegetarian options: I had the salmon with cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. It was amazing. They had some of the best water I have ever drank in my life. The customer service was excellent. This was a great first date. I highly recommend this place.

Delicious lobster rolls!!!
It was my first time to have lobster food and it was really good. Especially lobster sandwiches and latte, donut for dessert.It was an impressive experience for my family.When someone is looking up a good restaurant to crave some food, I'll recommend this.

I have never eaten here
Stopped in to get a takeout Lobster Roll. While it is not enormous, the quality was excellent. There were big chunks of lobster and it was juicy and very tender. I appreciated that they did not overload it with celery or chives. The lobster was cradled in one large boston lettuce leaf and the roll was perfectly toasted. It came with a little side if cole slaw. For Westport, the price was reasonable.
It wasn't lobster season when we went, but the lobster roll was actually very decent. There was lots of lobster meat inside, which was exactly as advertised; the seasoning was nicely done, and different flavors were layered on top of each other to create a wonderful taste. The only downside is that it's on the pricey end. Although we ordered takeout and only ordered a roll and a sandwich, it still averaged $30 per person.
