My favorite place to eat lobster as you are looking at the water they came out of. True sea to table with a minimalism that has to be experienced to be appreciated. Be sure to bring your own extras and beverages.
John Murphy
Great support, the girls operating the serving post are excellent. Great food. Great views. Umbrellas to tables could be upgraded, but all in all nice experience.
Colin Nash
Best lobster in Maine. Prices are unbelievable. We drove 45 minutes to come eat here over other places. It was closed for a water problem, so we came back the next day. Thats how good this is.
Patricia Esper

Wonderful beautiful spot for lobster, steamers and corn.
Joe Ogden
Great place. Fantastic staff. Affordable for fresh, high quality lobster and clams.

My go-to place for lobster, worth every second of the 3 hour drive for me. Note... there are two places here... a larger more full-service restaurant, and the co-op. The co-op is the small building on the right when you come in the drive, at the top of the parking lot. The menu is limited... lobster, corn on the cob, and steamers. Bring your own drinks, bring a picnic of side dishes, bring your dog(s), and sit in the pier at a picnic table and have a long, lazy lunch. I think weve said this is the best lobster Ive ever had every time we go there.

Very simple set up with the best prices on the freshest lobster. $17 got a whole lobster dinner with clams, corn, and potato chips. Such a fun experience. I diidnt realize it was BYOB. Next time Ill be sure to bring a nice dry white wine to pair with my lobster.

We used to go to Shaws but they are no longer good. We found around Pond on Google. It was the best lobster wharf ever. $33 for 2 lobsters, clams, corn. BAM! Sounds like a deal to me. And you re allowed to bring whatever food you want that they don t sell, byob. We got to watch the lobster men unload their catch and load up for the next day right next to us. It was like a dinner and a show. Very friendly place. Oh and their was even a dog named Lucy and came over to say hi. Next time I m on Maine (from PA) I will be back for more delicious lobster at Round Pond.

Great service. Great food. Great view. Very reasonably priced. About 25% less than Muscongus Bay Lobster right next door for the exact same lobster dinner. I have eaten at both and greatly prefer Round Pond Lobster Co-Op because of the price and it isnt touristy looking.
