Best fried clams and lobster rolls in all of Maine, good tasting, cooked properly and delicious. I have tried all the local restaurants and local clam shops, by far the best.

One more stop lobster dinner before heading south out of Maine. Went with the cold lobster roll this time. Was very good. I ordered the special. Lobster roll and clam chowder. Glad I did. Clam chowder was creamy as I like it. We sat at the picnic tables outside for a little while and took the rest on the road. Bae’s onion rings were really good.

The food was hot and fresh and the service was great 😊
