We arrived with the expectation of enjoying lobster rolls, but they were depleted by 1:30pm. Instead, we chose the crab roll and clam chowder, which were palatable. The restaurant exuded New England charm, and its waterfront location with a view of the bay was picturesque. While it did not exceed expectations, the establishment was endearing and served tasty food.

Wonderful location in the Fall. Clam Chowder on a cup was very generous! Crab salad sandwich offered an organic pallet for Poseidon! French fries were fresh and toastie!
The view and serenity was priceless! We are definitely coming back next year for their Lobster Roll!

Went for lunch. Your typical lobster shack. I don't mean to sound derogatory. There are great lobster shack's out there.
Right on the water, easy parking right out front during off season.
The chowder was delicious fair amount of clams and potatotes. The broth was creamy and had a very good flavor...hint of garlic possibly. The lobster roll was Maine style, grilled New England style hot dog roll and had a good amount of lobster. Wifey had tthe clam strip roll....wow, what a mountain of clam strips!
Both the lobster and clam roll came with fries.
Oh, they make their own delicious tarter sauce. Can't say I've ever had tarter sauce that tasted quite like this. Plenty of seating inside and out.

Nice location by the water. Food is okay not too many options if you don’t eat fried food. But it’s always great to go there

The food was good. Loved sitting outside and watching the sunset at Folly Cove! Very casual setting, picnic tables outside. Bonus for us was the BYOB.

A surly kid that took our order when asked if they had gluten free fried merely stated no. We ordered boiled lobster and it had so much water in it it filled the plate and the tray it came on. Lobster was a bit tough and chewy. The outdoor furniture was too dirty to use. this a place that costs the same as many places nearby. The complete lack of respect for customers and belligerent attitude are the reasons why we won’t ever return

Beautiful setting and good food, great for groups.
However The staff was so incredibly rude to us for no reason at all , it almost ruined our experience. Fortunately the seating is outside and you pick your food up inside so we were able to enjoy the ambiance.

The food was decent, the view was pretty nice, but the woman working was rude and snobby. We brought the hot sauce bottle to the table and she rudely came and grabbed it and said “thats why we have cups”. Mind you, we were the only people there…
