Lobster Pound Restaurant

Midcoast Maine


Fresh local lobster is the name of the game at this recommended seafood joint on Lincolnville's beach, though there are plenty of other options (fishy and non-fishy). The restaurant is especially family friendly, with a kids' menu and a gift shop hawking stuffed lobsters and the like.

Lobster Pound is about 6 miles northeast of Camden.
