These people are amazing - my lobster roll was so loaded with meat, it kept trying to fall over and spill all over the plate! And it was utterly delicious! Be forewarned - once you try their roll, everyone else’s will disappoint!

Cute outdoor atmosphere. Just okay lobster preparation. Obviously because of the area, it’s quite touristy… and yes we were on vacation too :) Very disappointed by the ladies working there…very rude attitude which honestly compromised the dining experience

The lobster was absolutely delicious! Plenty of picnic tables with umbrellas for dining.

Awesome place, excellent food, definitely make it a stop when near Bar Harbor. Patty was very kind and explained how to eat everything!

I think people come for their fresh lobster, but had their roasted corn and cotija salad with shrimp and it was so fresh and delicious!

What a great place, with even better people. Truly the friendliest people we met on our travels through Maine. The soft shell lobster was the best we’ve ever had. And the blueberry pie was the cherry on top - truly a slice of heaven. Can’t say enough good things about this place and the people!

Low key place just off the main road and reasonably priced compared to some other options in the area.

Wonderful small New England clam shack. Plenty of outdoor seating and parking. (No indoor dining) This was one of our highlight lobster rolls in Maine. Their lobster was fresh and succulent, corn on the cob was so fresh and yummy, I almost thought she cut it off out back just to cook it for me! I also bought a piece of blueberry pie to eat later. BEST SLICE OF BB PIE IN MY LIFE!

We had a couple of lobster rolls while we were in Bar Harbor and this was our first stop on the way into town. By far the BEST lobster roll we had on our trip!!!!

We ordered the Lazy Lobster Roll (hot lobster roll) and it was outstanding—easily the best lobster roll we’ve had in Maine. Fresh, flavorful, and packed with lobster. Honestly, I’d drive all the way back to Bar Harbor just to have it again. We also tried the lobster bisque and the clam chowder. The bisque had a generous amount of lobster but the base itself lacked flavor. The clam chowder was tasty but very thin compared to others we’ve had. That said, the lobster roll alone makes this place worth it. At $45 it’s on the expensive side, but with the portion and quality, it felt worth every penny. I’d come back for that roll again and again.
