Five Islands Lobster Co

"Five Islands Lobster Co is located on Georgetown Island, the type of place where people bike to the post office in their L.L. Bean sweaters and refer to their summer house “on the island.” You can find sandwiches and fried things like onion rings and clams at the love nest grill, and whole-boiled lobsters at the lobster pound just a few feet down the wharf. The lobster roll has an ideal meat-to-bread-to-mayo-to-lettuce ratio, and the sweet, tender claws and knuckles were probably fished out of the water that morning. The chips that come with the roll are perfectly decent, but do yourself a favor and order extra sides of french fries and onion rings." - anne cruz

"If you're not in a rush, make a detour to Five Islands Lobster Co. in Georgetown, a low-key lobster shack overlooking a marina and neighboring islands." - Sophie Friedman

"McCaskey then heads up the coast, stopping at antique shops looking for the perfect quenelle spoon or antique glasses for the bar, all the while ducking in and out of lobster roll shacks. (Five Islands Lobster Co., McLoons Lobster Shack and McLaughlin’s Lobster Shack, among many, many others, can be found along Maine’s coastline.)" - Abbe Baker
