Of Lobster Rolls, Chilled Shrimp and More - New England Lobster Market & Eatery [Thoughts + Pics]

Update:

Stopped by New England Lobster Market & Eatery again since we were passing through and forgot to research out other places to eat for lunch. :sweat_smile:

They had plenty of Live Lobsters to choose from (our friends decided to try the 1 pound and 1.5 pound Lobsters, steamed (they loved it).

Crab Manhattan Soup:

This tasted pretty close to a Manhattan Clam Chowder, except instead of Clams, they used Crab. It was less briny than a standard Manhattan, but still quite tasty and warming on this chilly day. :slight_smile:

House Salad (S):

Dungeness Crab Sandwich:

I saw this last time and wanted to order it, but we had to try their famous Lobster Roll first. The Dungeness Crab Sandwich arrives on toasted, pan-seared Bread (like a Patty Melt), slightly oily, but crisped and tasty. They serve plenty of Dungeness Crab Meat inside, and it tasted fresh, lightly (inherently) sweet, briny, and delicious. :slight_smile:

The Chips were so-so, tasting like they were lukewarm and made a bit earlier. The Slaw was lightly sweet, creamy and fine.

Crab Nachos:

The Housemade Potato Chips here were warmer / more crisp (probably a newer batch as this arrived last). The Dungeness Crab, Black Beans and Creamy Garlic Sauce made this as tasty as our last visit.

Overall, I think it’s a solid place to stop by if you’re in the mood for fresh, Steamed Live Lobster (by the pound), and they make solid Lobster Rolls and a tasty Dungeness Crab Sandwich. :slight_smile:
