Harraseeket Lunch and Lobster Company

"When you arrive at Harraseeket Lunch and Lobster Company, an attendant will guide you into the wharf’s parking lot like you’re at Disneyland. You can order lobster rolls and clam baskets at the window, and whole steamers at the lobster pound around the building’s corner. The lobster roll here tastes sweet, and even though the bread is on the floppier side, it still has enough structural integrity to support the meat, mayo, and lettuce. The pickle slices might be hidden away at the bottom of your roll’s paper basket, but consider it a little present you get to unwrap while watching the ferry boats head towards Casco Bay." - anne cruz

"A true seafood shack of the red-beadboard-and-old-wooden-tables variety, this Freeport landmark has been operated by the Coffin Family since 1970, and not a lot has changed in that time. The Harraseeket Lunch and Lobster Company is a magnet for boaters pulling up to the dock who are seeking some of the best seafood around. There are absolutely no culinary sound barriers being broken at this restaurant, but what it does, it does extremely well. Some favorites include fried clams and lobster rolls, and the homemade desserts—especially the whoopie pies and blueberry pies—are worth a trip on their own." - Alexandra Hall
