Nice little place right in Lincoln, Maine. If you are looking to fancy this isn’t the place for you, but if you are looking for fresh seafood cooked perfectly this is the place. The atmosphere was great the locals there a super friendly and the service was good as well..

My wife and I with our 2yr old stayed just across the water from Charlie's in Lincoln. We saw it as we were walking around and decided to give it a go as I LOVE me some clams! We popped in and ordered some fried and stuffed clams along with some scallops. Everyone was friendly, having a few drinks and great food. It was as good as you hope any small place like it could be! Can't wait to come back on our next visit from FL while we search for land!
Kid-friendliness: Everyone in the place treated our 2yr old as if they were his Aunts and Uncles and had known him his whole life. Super friendly!

Always good service. We usually get a pound of shrimp or fish to take home and cook at least 2 or 3 times a month. Have not been disappointed yet . I am so glad we have Charlies in Lincoln.

I was surprised how small it was and the seating reminded me of McDonald's. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. We both had oysters drinks from the bar and the scallop and clam dinner and were very pleased with the taste and portion size. They also sell a wide variety of fresh seafood.

Charlie’s is slow and quaint, but you can always count on it! It’s definitely the best place to eat in town! Food is consistently good and the waitress’s are always sweet!

Quiet place, friendly staff, food fried to perfection. The French onion soup was satisfyingly cheesy, and the seafood platter was one of the best we ever

It's like a cheer's but with fresh hot lobster, or fresh baked salmon on a Caesar salad.Food is delicious, service is like I am at my aunt's house for dinner, super friendly conversation.I read the reviews before going I was a little Leary but nothing like that.

"My recent visit to Charlie’s seafood restaurant left me utterly disappointed. From the moment we walked in, the experience went downhill.Once seated, the service was slow and unresponsive. waitresses sitting down drinking on the job. It took ages for the server to take our orders, and when the food finally arrived, it was a major letdown. The seafood dishes were undercooked and lacked any freshness. It felt like they had been sitting around for a while before being served. 2 hours to be exact.To make matters worse,my meal was ice cold. It was evident that little effort went into preparing them, and they did not complement the main dishes at all.Additionally, the overall ambiance was underwhelming. The restaurant appeared outdated and poorly maintained, making it hard to enjoy the dining experience.Given the high expectations for a seafood restaurant, this visit was a complete disappointment. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a quality seafood dining experience. There are far better options out there that provide fresher and better-cooked dishes with attentive service."

1 and a half hour wait before I received raw deep fried scallops and cold mozzarella sticks. The waitress was rude and inside drinking beer lounging in a booth. No apology for the nasty food, just that they were behind.Do not eat here, unless you enjoy your food undercooked with a side of rude and unapologetic staff.
