About The Happy Clam Shack

The Happy Clam Shack is a charming roadside stand that offers a delightful seaside Maine vibe, enhanced by beautiful flowering trees and ample outdoor seating. Known for its generous portions, the restaurant features a standout hot lobster roll, praised for its fresh and chunky lobster meat, which many consider the best on their New England trip. Guests also enjoy the clam chowder, corn on the cob, and blueberry pie, with the clam steamers receiving positive feedback as well. While some diners found the clams to be lacking in flavor, the friendly and helpful staff add to the overall pleasant experience. Visitors should note that GPS may misdirect them, so it’s best to enter from the main road.
