    We usually stop at Crosby's at least once every two weeks and the food has been delicious. We almost always order the same thing "half and half" fried scallops and fried clams with French fries. Today the clams were not as good because they were probably cooked in old grease but the scallops and fries were great. The prices are about average for the area. They also have some picnic tables set up for outdoor dining. We will be returning in a couple of weeks.

    We have been to Crosby's a few times. This last visit has finally got me into review mode as our experiences have been too varied. From good to not really good at all. The food is inconsistent. Lobster roll was very dry and didn't have much taste. Onion rings were plentiful, good looking but lacked ANY flavor. Service was good, through a take out window which is the norm for this area. The picnic table seating area was fairly clean (looking at you rafters, pretty dirty up there) but the tables are in big need of painting. There is good off street parking next to the picnic tables and a play area for the kids. This place gets very busy during lunch, perhaps I am ordering the wrong things....

    Vintage style walk up and order diner. Lots of options. We had the lobster roll with fries and double cheeseburger with bacon add bacon. Both were yummy! Fries are crinkle cut, thin and crispy. These were the thinnest crinkle cut I have ever had. Lots of outdoor seating options under covered patio at picnic tables or patio type deck under umbrellas. They take cards. As of 06/28/20 restrooms were closed and under renovation so if you gotta go, hit up the gas station that is right before this place.

    Little roadside drive in- outdoor picnic table seating ( or take out). Lots of seafood variety. We had the Lobster roll ($22) and Haddock small basket (13.50) that came with fries and cold slaw. Food was ok - Seafood fast food. They also had burgers and ice cream. Place was very crowded apparently a local hot spot.

    We've often wondered about this place and decided to try it for the first time yesterday. We both…read morehad been craving cheesesteaks so we each ordered a small. We considered splitting one but I like mine with lots of stuff and he prefers just mushrooms. Everybody was really friendly, the sandwiches came out really quickly and they brought them over to our table. Mine was the Bomb and had salami in it along with mushrooms onions and peppers. They were really good. We will definitely visit again and I may step on the wild side and try something different.

    I asked whether it would be okay to substitute something vegetarian, like some onions and…read moremushrooms, for the bacon. No problem, she said. After I paid, I realized that they had not only charged me full price, they had tacked on not one, but two surcharges for the veggies. Nearly ten bucks for a grilled cheese with American cheese and a few veggies? Plus nearly 8 bucks for the onion rings. When I very politely said that I wasn't happy about the "misunderstanding" about the substitution, she said that it was OKAY to substitute the vegetables, she had never said that it would be the same PRICE. Seriously? They have the right to charge what they want, but the food was nowhere near good enough to pay that much. Not even close. Not going back.

I like the Blackened Haddock Tacos and the pretzel sticks. Pro Tip: get BOTH the "beer cheese" and the "beer mustard" and get extra of both. You might have extra, but you can use the extra on sandwiches tomorrow. The extra mustard is also great with cheese and crackers as a snack. The blueberry cobbler is fantastic! The peanut butter pretzel pie did not impress my husband; he said the pretzels themselves tasted cheap, like grocery store pretzels. I have been trying to get them to add a vegetarian pasty to the menu. They have almost nothing vegetarian in there, and a Greggs style cheese and onion pasty would also be extremely traditional and surely wildly popular. PLEASE ADD A VEGETARIAN PASTY!! And/or a fish pasty, which would also be very traditional. Oooh, what about a Stargazy Pasty with leeks and cream? Now, THAT would be traditional and would certainly get some media attention. I will raise my rating to 5 stars as soon as this place adds a good vegetarian or fish Signature Entree (preferably a pasty!!). That is literally the only reason they're not getting 5 stars, that it's way too oriented towards meat eaters. (They do have a grilled cheese toasty and a vegan garden burger, so I would still go there if you are vegetarian or vegan, but keep your expectations low when it comes to selection.)
