My second review of this unique offering in Lowell VT. Small eatery, you can drive by it if you're not watching for it. They did an amazing job staying open during the hard times of social distancing during the hard pandemic period and provided great outdoor car service. It's easier now, their prices have increased very slightly but they still provide great food at very reasonable prices. We have been back many times since my first review and their food quality is still terrific. I feel that their seafood offerings are very reasonably priced compared to going to the coast and it's has proven to be prepared much better than what we received in Maine at a much lower cost. I'm totally hooked on their shrimp poor boy. Hubbies fried scallops, fried whole belly clams or fried oysters have always been cooked and served properly. Very generous portions. We see the Cajun as our "go to" for a seafood place in Vermont. You can eat eat in the dining room, outside at one of their tables or in your vehicle. It can be very busy there, rightly so. Bring your appetite! read more

Nothing like it used to be. Went father's day the special was steak and lobster, lobster was beyond dry and very "fishy" steak was not steak but more like stew meat. Only flavor in the chicken tenders was grease. Will not be going there again read more

Right on 100, this is a great place to grab a quick lunch or snack, lots of food options, my wife loved the cold lobster roll. Outside dining or take away. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Definitely recommend for a quick easy bite or ice cream. Their Maple Creamy is delicious! read more

First can i say. AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! This staff is so sweet and nice oh my god. The time for our food may have been 20-30 minutes but i'm pretty sure it's because the food is fresh. Place is usually busy and pretty expensive but food is worth it. big portions of food. the place is very nice and windows are open so nice breeze! Overall my eating is a 9.8/10 Awesome place definitely recommend! read more

Cajun's Snack Bar - Seafood Near Me - Lowell, Vermont

Since moving to the area a year ago, so many people have asked if we've been to Cajun's yet. We finally gave it a try last weekend, and after all the build-up it was a pretty big disappointment. Lettuce, huge pieces of tomato, grated cheese and large fried chicken chunks do not make a taco salad. That was the strangest thing. My son ordered a cheeseburger, and it literally consisted of nothing more. Just a burger with cheese on a bun. No lettuce. No tomato or onion slices. No sauce. Perhaps you have to ask for the things that normally come on a burger? The onion rings and fried mushrooms were excessively greasy, as if the oil hadn't been hot enough. Otherwise, they would have been good. My grandson's poutine fries had the same problem. Way too greasy. We had such high hopes, but Cajun's just didn't live up to the hype. When I shared our experience with a few people, they all said the same thing - "yeah, Cajun's has gone downhill in the last few years." read more

Dine in area is limited seats. They prioritize take away first than dine in customers. I guess all their foods are fried but it tastes good.they have this alligator meal which is kinda exotic if you think of it. read more

Being from the gulf coast I truly appreciated hearing there was a place for Cajun food in Vermont! We drove a little over an hour and I'm so glad we did! The crawfish tails were delicious as was the lobster roll and the onion rings! Worth a drive and it's a cute set up too. Lots of 4 wheelers grabbing a quick b read more

This is the best "secret " of northern vt! It's a slice of the south up north. Great people, and you know it's good when there is no parking. It's loud, it's locals, it's a must have every summer read more

We ordered ahead, went inside to get the food, the nice girl told us to go to the window, but never told the window girl we arrive, so we waited and waited and waited, and received cold food. The chicken strips looked like they were cooked with buttermik coating and burnt, and I threw up hem out. My wife's whole belly clams were missing half their bellies. The fries were only ok because they were cold. Not pleasant and my stomach hurts me all night. Not a pleasant experience since we drove almost an hour to get there. read more

Food was delicious, they give you a lot for the price. We had to wait awhile for the food, but it was so worth it.

Cajuns is the standard for fresh seafood and authentic Cajun in the area. 5 stars! The Owners are terrific as well!

Place was really cool. First time having alligator bites! They were delicious!! Lobster roll and shrimp Po-boy were delicious too! Place was a little out there, but so worth it. Next time we are up that way we'll definitely be back!!! read more

First time there and it was very yummy! Had the crayfish poboy, chicken quesadilla, and jalapeño poppers. There was a lot to choose from, made ordering difficult in the best way possible. Something for everyone! Definitely going back when they open again in the spring. read more

I got the taco salad which was HUGE and full of delicious fresh veggies and chicken. A very relaxed atmosphere with picnic tables outside and a little arcade. My partner got the maple BBQ boneless chicken wings and he said they were also delicious. I recommend stopping by if you're in the area for a bite to eat. read more

Great seafood, and the fries in the poutine are excellent. It doesn't look like much but it is the real thing.

We'd read online that Cajun's prioritized take away orders, but we did not have that experience at all. Because of a google review saying so, we called first, but we received a very friendly message telling us to come on in person because they were busy and weren't able to take phone orders at that time. Boy are we glad we made the trip. Their reputation of being friendly is all true. Yes, we waited an hour for our food, but we saw how busy this place was and once we realized that each and every order is made to order...not one thing is prepared ahead of time.. we were prepared to wait. We got our drinks in advance and brought a deck of cards! The kitchen is in full view and the people who work there seem to get along, always on the move, and worked so hard. And then there is the food. We did not have an easy time choosing from the full menu. Burgers are fresh ground! Fries are hand cut! The seafood was breaded and fried right there! Fresh and delicious. We will make the trip to go again. With a deck of cards, or maybe a Frisbee to help us pass the time while we wait. It is worth it. read more

Service was quick wait was minimal Chicken Quessildia were the Best my wife ever had loaded with chicken and cheese and Fried Pickles were ok. Dining room was good size good oldies music played on the speakers I bought a T shirt from the gift area T shirt was 15$ reasonable read more

Cajun's is without a doubt a staple to summer living in the Northeast Kingdom. The Jason Burger is phenomenal, and I've never had a burger that size elsewhere. What also makes Cajun's so amazing is the family behind it. Wonderful people! read more

Can't wait for them to open every summer. Great food especially the fried clams. The only problem is it is so busy you have to wait sometimes. read more

Bbq is meant to be messy! Am I right? Yes well and this place is supreme Had the pulled pork sandwich and the sauce ran all over my hands, arms and face. But i did care. It was sooo good. Walnut brownie sunday for dessert was also good but i think the peanut sauce was missing. Smoothies were delicious too. I only know because I nabbed a coupla licks carrying it to my wife who was saving the bench. If you go, have patience. They are not terribly organized there but the food is worth the wait. They also have hamburgers, oysters, clams, alligator, crawdads, most of it fried. read more

The food was great. The burger was amazing. Seafood was very good as well. The service was prompt. Food packaged to go nicely.

This snack shack/diner has an amazing menu. The menu is large so check it out. There is a lot of fried but don't let that scare you away. Though I did not try the salad it looked healthy and well put together. I shared two plates with my brother. We did whole bellied clams and scallops. Both options came fried with close slaw. You also have the option of French fries or onion rings. Both the fries and onion rings are made in house. The price was 19.99 each. The plates were a very good size. We had left overs. There is a large ice cream menu. We were to full to try. I would eat there again. read more

Had always driven by and seen tons of cars, 4 wheelers, ATVs etc. Couldn't imagine the appeal honestly. So, stopped by today for a lobster roll and some fried clam strips withy wife. Bother came with fries. Good portions and very tasty. Worth a stop. Nice picnic table with umbrella. Clean rest room with flush toilet. read more

Worth the drive! We had recently been to Maine and were disappointed by the tasteless, overpriced food at some of the local snack bars. Low and behold, in Lowell, VT is this gem! Very reasonably priced and good quality snack bar food! The curbside ordering was easy and safe (COVID-19), and the food was plentiful and delicious - WAY better than Bob's Clam Hut in Kittery, ME (and much more affordable!) The parking lot was filled with locals on side-by-sides, covered in mud. Relaxed, warm and welcoming atmosphere. Will definitely return! We ordered a cold lobster roll (Mayo based), seafood chowder, haddock sandwich and onion rings. Lobster roll was fresh and plentiful. Haddock sandwich was big - came with tartar sauce on it and some kind of cheese (velveeta?), the chowder was thick and delicious. And the onion rings were hot and crispy. No fountain sodas due to covid, so we had bottled drinks. Left full and satisfied. read more

I hate to seem to be swimming against the current, but I was very disappointed. Not only did we (four people) have to wait 45 minutes for our food, but the contents of my salad wrap was dry and tasteless. read more

Best snack shack in the area!! There's indoor and outdoor seating. There is an outdoor bathroom. I love the Po boys and broccoli cheese bites the most, but they also have sundaes and milk shakes! Sometimes I have had rude or less than caring waitresses but they are usually just the high school students that work there part time. read more

This place is amazing and the seafood is delicious! Lots of adventurous options to choose from as well!

Had the scallop plate.You can't get better seafood on the ocean. Prices are reasonable and food is great. Can be busy at times though it's not a secret for local people. read more

Three times the charm. Tried on a Tuesday but they were closed, then tried on a Sunday...not a place to park or stand! Told there would be an hour wait. They have quite a business. Came back on the following Wednesday at 2PM and found a seat! EVERYTHING is fried and wonderful! Husband had hot lobster sandwich with drawn butter and french fries. I had bowl of chowder and onion rings. There is a great variety of seafood which looked great but that will have to wait until next year. Lots of burgers coming out of kitchen. Outside ice cream and creemie window. More than worth the drive. Prices very fair. read more

I was driving north on Route 100 when I felt a raise in humidity and I swear there was moss in the trees, then I saw it the "Cajun Snack Shack" . It looked like a place you would find on LA 10 between Breaux Bridge and Lafayette. Being from Louisiana I was a little suspicious , ordered the Crawfish Poboy And the Natchitoches meat pie. The real deal , although a little upset, they must of stolen my Tante ( Aunt) Paulines' recipe . It was that good! True Lagniappe in the Northern Kingdom of Vermont . read more

I've eaten here a number of times and it's a great place for a casual meal. The staff is very friendly, the food is great, the prices are very reasonable, and the outdoor patio is nice to eat outside on. As long as you realize that this is not a great restaurant for a vegetarian or a formal dinner, you'll have a nice experience here. I've had burgers, fish po' boys, chicken sandwiches and sausage sandwiches here. I loved it all (except for the sausage - I wished it something more akin to Andouille). The fried alligator, fried pickles and Cajun fries were great too. read more

This little snack bar knocks it out of the park every time. I ordered the whole belly clam dinner and the clams were crispy perfection. Fries were hand cut and crunchy outside, fluffy inside. My husband and I shared a cheeseburger as well and it was perfect! This place is worth driving out of the way for. The clam dinner was a steal at $16.99. Came with cole slaw, tartar sauce and a big pile of crunchy fries. read more

Absolutely the freshest scallops I have ever had, and we are landlocked in Vermont. This will be my alternative seafood destination from now on. The coleslaw is good also. Will be returning for the lobster roll and whole bellied clams. The service is Covid safe and super nice. Really fast too. Go early before they get busy. read more

Ok, so you're in the middle of nowhere in the northeast kingdom, and you come across a snack bar that touts fresh seafood. First reaction would normally be : "Not doing that". Think again: fresh seafood, excellent lobster rolls, solid poutine, and excellent ice cream. This place is a jewel in the restaurant desolation of rural Vermont. read more

Did not like it. Girl behind the cash register was uninformed about her product, chicken was chopped and formed, and everything was so salty I couldn't eat it. Left most of my meal on the table. If I wanted a plate of deep fried, sodium drenched, mechanically separated chicken product, I could have done it cheaper at home. read more

My family lives in Vermont, and every time I visit we trek out to Cajun. Eating here is something I look forward to and dream about each time. Their food, fries and shakes are amazing. My favorite sandwich is def. The haddock sandwich. Eat here if you get the chance! Amazing! read more
