Mcloons lobster shack - lobster roll - south thomaston maine
revised lobster roll rankings
1. Redâs - great flavor, ridiculous amount of lobster, pretty nice setting, location is very convenient as itâs right on Hwy 1, wait time is very long, best value
2. mcloonâs - best flavor of all the options, a good amount of lobster for the price, location is out of the way, best setting as itâs on an island where the lobstermen bring them ashore, wait time is minimal. They do offer a rolls royce version of their lobster roll for $55 with twice the amount of lobster. (as opposed to $30 for the regular size - all the places were around $30 for a lobster roll).
3. Clam Shack - kennebunkport. Flavor is excellent. Most expensive. Great setting in kennebunkport, location is convenient if youâre visiting kennebunkport, wait time is minimal
4. Nubbâs lobster shack - cape neddick - flavor is good, great setting - view of the Atlantic was gorgeous, location is out of the way unless youâre in ogunquit, wait time is minimal
5. Eventide - portland - flavor is great but itâs partly due to seasoning rather than pure flavor of the lobster, wait time is long, setting is just a street in portland, reasonably convenient location if youâre in portland - itâs several blocks from the old port, less expensive than other options but thereâs less lobster than the others
6. mabelâs lobster claw - no flavor, wait time is longer than it should be, setting is fine, pass on this one
