This is the real deal when it comes to lobster rolls and chowdah! Everyone is super friendly and in our opinion, it’s the best in the area. If you are looking for a must New England experience in Portsmouth, this is it. They let you sample their chowders and it’s walking distance to downtown Portsmouth as well.
Stopped in here today. They are built to push lobster rolls and chowder. I ordered a crab roll with butter. Looked like they opened a can of meat and put it on a hot dog roll and served it with a side of butter. The other order was a cheeseburger. Eat staff was punctual but not warm. I’d label this an old school tourist trap.
