Bob Lobster Reviews
the Food is very good BUT too expensive for what you get. I ordered a Fisherman's Platter and it was like a single plate. I can go to many other places and spend a lot less for a lot more!
The people are very nice there so I wish them well! If I win the Lottery I'll be back! too $$$$$
We are visiting from Texas originally from Massachusetts. We decided to stop here and let me tell you it was amazing!!!!! We both got scallops and they were the best I have had in a long time! Can’t wait to come back!!
We ate at Bob Lobster twice in 3 days and the food was Amazing! I could’ve eaten the steamers by myself. The scallops and whole belly clams had a nice crunch to them. Not greasy like we’ve had at other places. The steamed lobster was Perfect and the Lobster roll was to die for! The lobster / corn chowder is a must! We will definitely be back!!!

Bob Lobster offers a mix of experiences, with some customers praising the delicious lobster rolls and onion rings, while others find the food to be just okay and overpriced. The portions are generous, and the staff is reported to be friendly. The restaurant offers beautiful marsh views and has a typical lobster place interior. Recent visitors noted that despite not being busy, it can sometimes take a while to get their order. The restaurant is known for its high-quality lobsters sourced from Gloucester, and customers often enjoy the clam boat, oyster boat, and 1.5lb whole lobster, which are consistently delicious. The fried food is described as not oily or greasy, and the restaurant provides tasty, fresh salads as vegetarian options. Some reviews highlight that the lobster is fresh, tender, and packed with flavor, with the lobster roll being a favorite. The shell of the lobster is soft and easy to crack, and the taste is exceptional even without added butter or lemon. Visitors also mention that the lobster is the best they have ever had, and it remains a memorable experience. Parking can be challenging, especially when busy, and layout issues make navigation difficult. Overall, Bob Lobster is appreciated for its fresh seafood, friendly service, and scenic views, though some guests find the prices high. Its interior stays true to a typical lobster place, and cleanliness is maintained to a high standard. Many find it a great stop for lobster lovers and recommend returning for the excellent lobster and pleasant atmosphere.
