They had a unique twist to the traditional lobster roll. It was a lobster sandwich instead between two toasted pieces of bread. It was pretty delicious. They give you a nice size portion of lobster meat inside of the bread. This was our first lobster experiment in Massachusetts and it was delicious!

Basically on the back of a house in residential area and you sit inside a shed in the parking lot but the lobster sandwich was pretty much worth the $32!

Had lobster sandwich & crab salad sandwich. Both obviously fresh made & huge with just toasted bread & toasted bun that did not overwhelm the filling. So good & worth the short wait.

Great open, homey restaurant.
Absolutely unassuming but that's what makes it a popular but hidden gem!! Quality and great taste.
Not a fan of Cold lobster roll but this managed to turn me into a fan!!
Surely will be back next time I'm in town. Love from TX.
Generous parking around the corner.

Awesome little Seafood restaurant and shop, serving up fresh lobster, mussels, scallops, and more. We found this spot on a lost of Massachusetts best lobster rolls and we were pleasantly surprised with the food overall. The lobster sandwhich was great and not too buttery
and the bisque was delicious and hot. Perfect place for some seafood on a cold day, I highly recommend!!

Tucked away off the beaten path, this cozy neighborhood fish market and restaurant is a hidden gem. The lobster roll was generously packed with meat, and the fresh swordfish on display looked top-notch. Definitely worth the detour—I’ll be back for more

It’s a total hole-in-the-wall, family sized picnic table seating, order at the counter from a dud with an authentic Bahstn accent place. Generous lobster portions, calamari salad was righteous.

They are closing early without noticing anywhere. When we arrived several minutes earlier they still refused to serve us
