We were a group of eight and decided to answer that age old question of what is the best lobster roll? The one made with a mayo base or the one made with the butter base. We ordered a whole bunch of them and we wound up in a tie, and the only thing that was agreed-upon was that these lobster rolls were out of this world delicious! Can't wait to go back and hit it again, but boy was that a treat. #stevensleavin read more

Footbridge Lobster - Seafood Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

I was so hyped from all the 5-star reviews,, I was really looking forward to trying this joint. The verdict is a 3, very pricey, small portion, I got a lobster roll and a belly clam plate for $68. If you're in York Beach, the other better option is Bob's Clam Hut. Food quality is superb, bigger portion and a reasonable priced menu. read more

I love lobster rolls but I had the scallop roll which absolutely blew me away and also the clam roll was outstanding so amazing I'm going back again tomorrow read more

As much as I wanted to try a lobster roll, I couldn't justify spending $25 to find out if I like lobster. Instead, I played it safe with fish and chips. At $22, it was definitely a more expensive fish and chips than I'm used but it was fresh and tasty. The fish and the fries were both perfectly crispy. The only thing that was a bit of a disappointment was that the tartar sauce was prepackaged and not homemade. Still good but I guess I just expected a bit more for the price. The restaurant is more of a shack with an order window in the front. There are a few tables scattered around the shopping area but definitely not a lot of seating. At least the setting is absolutely beautiful though. read more

Footbridge Lobster - Seafood Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

Ok still the best lobster roll in the area now surpassing Bobs. Tons of fresh meat. This time we added twin steamed lobsters. Super fresh tasting. Food is 5 stars. Where you chow down is a different story, a few picnic tables to your right but no umbrellas - super hot in the direct sun. So no ambiance. Not their fault, Perkins cove needs to add seating for their customers. read more

Went there today for the lobster roll. It was so good we went back an hour later and got another one! Super cool vibe and very fast service. Highly recommend read more

What a nice little spot down in Perkins cove. We just happen to wonder up on this great place... that's a lie... I researched it! Just like the other 24 lobster shacks! But that's here nor there. Lobster roll- great toasted bun with the right amount of butter and mayo. The sign says "from my boat to you" the owner caught the lobsters that morning.. that's pretty fresh! Excellent roll over all definitely a must get. Lobster BLT... large strips of bacon, big slices of tomato, lettuce, mayo, on a great toasted slice of bread... what could be better? Add freaking lobster to it! Why not! The blt was amazing. Just wish I had some extra butter to pour on the lobster before eating the sandwich! Dinner special x2 - 2 one pound steamed lobsters with an ear of corn and side of butter.... 17.95... can you believe that... 17.95... my wife said we will take 2. I love that woman! So we got 4 lobsters and went and ate on a bench watching the sunset. Go by here and tell them Blake sent you! read more

We were recommended this little establishment by 2 different locals and boy oh boy! It did not disappoint at all! We had to go back a 2nd time to enjoy the freshest lobster literally pulled from the boat to go into our bellies. The owner works so hard for his clients and you can totally feel that he cares immensely about his product that he serves. If you want to support local...this is THE place to grab your lobster roll and steamed lobster to eat along the pier or take back home. Thank you for the yummy dinners! read more

Absolutely wonderful. This is Maine af. The first impression was the guy working the cashier at the stand, possibly the owner; super super super patient and friendly. This guy had a line the size of an 18 wheeler outside and was still calm as a monk. They suggested we get the butter and mayo rolls, let me tell you, probably the best lobster roll I've had. They say 5oz they probably gave me 7 ;) these rolls are hardy. I'm 6'5 280 and was satisfied. The fries are epic as well. The ambiance here is windows 11 wallpaper material. Overall you can't make this place any better, it's absolutely perfect. Will 1000% go back next time I'm in the area. read more

Footbridge Lobster - Lobster rolls - Seafood Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

Ufff... it really hurts me to post an "average" rating for Footbridge Lobster, but seriously, my experience was just ho-hum at best. It was late in the afternoon in mid-October when I walked up after spending time in Perkins Cove. I was in the mood of a good chowder like I usually get at the Village Market and well... I'll just get a cup since I am here. The cup that I ordered was warmed up in a microwave, contained maybe a thimble full of clams and had a great butter sheen at the top of the surface. I was so disappointed! Granted, it was late in the afternoon, so supply might have been "low" but after having about half, I threw it out and ended up going to Village Market anyway! The guy working there was incredibly nice and chatty, but I overpaid for a cup of hot cream and conversation. There are plenty of other locations in Ogunquit, so you might want to move this place down the list of "to-dos". Oh, the lobster roll prices are insane here... that tip is on the house. read more

Not much more needs to be said, best lobster of the entire trip. Great service, great food, and a great place to just walk around eating your delicious food on the go. I don't think you could be any closer to the water or happier with their food. A+ read more

It's not summer until I've been to Footbridge Lobster! I always get the lobster roll, which comes with chips. It's a hefty potion of lobster! The roll is always perfectly toasted. It's a walk up counter so finding a spot to sit can be challenging on busy days, but there are plenty of benches around. I usually walk to the start of the Marginal Way to enjoy an ocean view with my lobster roll. read more

Lobster roll is where it's at!! This is a new front runner for us for lobster rolls against the clam shack in Kennebunkport (which is closed for the season already). Get BOTH Mayo and butter. We came here twice in a week. First time our rolls came with lemon and a bit more butter. 10/10. Fries were good too. Second time no lemons were served and less butter on the rolls. 9/10. read more

Super fresh lobster - caught right in the morning! The worker here was super awesome in recommending what to get and informing us of how they catch their lobsters. Exactly what we are looking for: a small lobster shack with enthusiastic people that really care about their food. The lobster roll is a good size, the bun is toasted and buttered, and for how fresh it was, the price here is a lot cheaper compared to other lobster roll places! read more

Footbridge Lobster - Lobster Roll and Coleslaw (ig: tmfoodies) - Seafood Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

We stumbled upon this place after taking a nice stroll around Ogunquit and walked the nice trail pathway along the beach. After seeing the special of the day of twin lobsters (2 one-pound lobsters) and an ear of corn for only $18, I was sold. They take your order pretty quickly and I found out later that you can specify which gender lobster you prefer. This place was pretty popular as I saw several people placing orders in the early evening around 5:30 pm. After waiting 20ish minutes (it can take a while), the lobsters came out hot with a side of butter to dip in with a side of corn. The lobster was pretty freaking tasty with plump and moist meat. The corn was pretty tasty as well. Definitely worth the price. They also have a menu of various items including lobster rolls, fries, onion rings, and drinks. Would definitely recommend as a snack or as a meal! read more

So I had read really great reviews and I really wanted to like this place. Here for the day. We either ordered the lobster roll with onion rings or fries. Pros: lobster was plentiful. Bun was good.he Negatives: asked for lobster warm with butter. Wa7s tepid at best. Butter was all in roll...none on lobster. Large pieces of meat...most were tender...some were tough and stringy. Big pieces. Couldn't pick up the roll. No knives. Nowhere to sit. Had to balance it on our laps sitting on a bench in the hot sun. Expensive -$32 roll...sides were like 6.95 and $8.95. Beer was $6.75. $50 lunch...way too much. I would not repeat eat here. read more

Delicious lobster roll with fries. Chowder was also yummy. Strictly take out place- Not much parking, but if you go with another person they can circle around while you wait for your food to be ready or call ahead and place before. But totally worth it!!! read more

I haven't had a fresh lobster roll in probably 10 years, so I had a lot of high expectations for this rare treat! It didn't disappoint. The one bummer was that there's no seating; there are two picnic tables nearby, both of which were occupied; my mom and I had to perch on a nearby bench in brisk weather. But I'll definitely be back; just so so DO delicious. read more

Best lobster rolls we have had between Ogunquit and Portland! If you have not tried it is a must!

Been going here twice a year for 3 days each and have always loved their lobster rolls. Unfortunately, they are increased their price way too much for me to continue to go there. Two lobster rolls $71.42. No more choice of cole slaw or chips either. I agree that everything has gone up in price which I truly understand, but I believe they are a bit greedy here now. Went and got lobster rolls at two other places last week and they were delicious and under $30.00 with your choice of fries or salad. I know they would never get rich on us, but if others feel sthe same way as the four of us and stop going there, it will hurt their business. We will no longer be going. read more

Great place to stop for some lunch. We were early in the season and not much was open , but a local women suggested this to us . The non fish eater said the BLT was really good the bacon Cooke nice and crispy. The order of french fries was huge and they were very good . The haddock sandwich was excellent and a huge portion, enough for 2 lunches. Absolutely beautiful place to sit if you walk over the foot bridge. Perkins Cove was a really cute spot to walk around. read more

Hard review to figure out ... My lobster roll was fantastic. And the fried fish was amazing. However, the clam chowder was the worst I've EVER had. And the french fries were also the worst I've ever had. We were leaving the area after a few day long trip and wanted one last seafood meal before heading home. We tossed it up between Barnacle Billy's or this place. Barnacle Billy's serves booze but is literally shockingly overpriced and the ordering/table situation is a nightmare and confusing. So we chose Footbridge takewaway because it would be quicker and the reviews were good. (Also the sign that said 'Fresh seafood from our boat to your plate'). Lobster rolls are a dime a dozen in Maine so of course there also is a sign that says 'Maine's Best Lobster Roll' ... just as every spot has with no justification. The lobster roll was good. Lots of tail meat mixed with claw meat. You can order it with mayo or hot butter. I asked for lightly mayonnaised and it came VERY coated with mayo. Maybe I'd get it plain next time. The bun was a toasted sweetbread hot dog roll. Though there was a lot of meat, most of it spilled out of the bun and onto the tray because it was shallow. The fish and chips are very lightly coated. Almost like a chicken finger ... Not tempura fried like the British kind, and not crispy thick batter. It's kind of dusted with flour and fried, which is nice. The fish is a flaky white fish. The french fries were beyond disgusting, though honemade. One potato was literally rotton ... The fries were black and mealy. All were soggy and oily and had zero seasoning or taste. We threw them away. The clam chowder was the worst I ever had. It was totally bland and tasted of nothing but cornstarch. It was thick and had the consistency of a gravy. I'd call this potato gravy vs. clam chowder. I saw 2 bits of clam in the medium sized cup. The rest was potato ... It was so starchy tasting and way too thick not to be made with lots of cornstarch. We threw it out with the fries after a spoonful. Hard to review ... We will not go back here unless we wanted a quick lobster roll. The prices were okay for lobster rolls ... $18 but didn't come with fries. Only a small cup of Cole slaw. The fish and chips was $17 and fairly chintzy on the portion size. 2.5 small pieces of fish and a bowl of disgusting french fries. The counter staff was grizzled old fishermen who were fun to interact with and very pleasant/polite. I couldn't recommend that you eat here or not. I guess it depends what you order. We wouldn't go back but several reviewers seem to like it and the line at the stand and the small attached sit down restaurant seem to indicate it is popular. read more

Footbridge Lobster - Fish looks bigger than actual - Seafood Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

In a world where lobster rolls are lately running anywhere from 30-40 bucks - Footbridge lobster offers an amazing, can't turn it down deal. We came from a walk off the Marginal Way and noticed they offered buy one, get one lobsters. I may not get the bun but it was all about the fun of cracking one of these little guys open. We waited a bit for our food and parked ourselves at a nearby table. The meal came with a whole corn and a generous portion of melted butter. The lobster came our warm and super tender, I enjoyed the process of eating it and the hunt for all the meat. Messy, but fun! If you're looking to get your lobster fix I would 100% recommend a visit to Perkins Cove and look for the deal on the door at Footbridge Lobster. read more

Great lobster rolls! A lot of lobster meat and a big buttered roll. It was our first stop in Maine!

Footbridge Lobster was a solid option for a classic New England lobster roll. For $24.95, we got 5oz of fresh lobster stuffed into a split bun and a bag of Lay's potato chips. The lobster was fresh and juicy. I wasn't the one who ordered, but I heard they also have deals for 1/4 lb whole lobsters (either BOGO or for ~$30, if memory serves). The only downside to Footbridge is the lack of parking. Since this area is pretty touristy, most of the lots were full. We didn't have any luck even after circling a few times and ultimately, scarfed our lobster rolls in the car on the way home. read more

One of the best lobster rolls I've had! Super light and the lobster was cooked just right. Loved the butter/mayo combo which was just the right amount and not overly dressed. Also got the clam chowder too which was a superb classic. Parking is a little difficult but the service was quick! read more

In an area where you can find a lobster roll on every corner, these are the best of the best. Lobster rolls are always going to be absurdly expensive, but this is as close as you are going to come to getting your money's worth. I also appreciate that they will mix it in butter OR mayo (or neither), as too many places just give you a couple bites of lobster floating in a sea of mayo and call it a day. As others have mentioned, the only downside is really the lack of parking. If you are going to be in Perkins Cove for the day and paying to park anyway it's fine, but if you are just looking to get in and out for food it may not be worth it. read more

My daughter has asked me several times to join her here for lunch - well, I finally did and I am so glad! We have lived in Maine for years, and we know good seafood when we taste it. I am in no way exaggerating when I say that this was the BEST LOBSTER ROLL OF MY LIFE! The fried clams make every other fried clam I have ever had pale in comparison. Fresh, delicious, perfectly seasoned- cannot recommend enough. Friendly and efficient staff, clean kitchen - will definitely return as soon as possible! The view topped the whole experience off. I realize I am gushing, but this place is definitely " gush worthy"! read more

I'll definitely be coming back when I'm in the area! read more

Footbridge Lobster - 5 oz Lobster Roll!!! - Seafood Near Me - Ogunquit, Maine

Out of probably 30 Yelp reviews, Foot Bridge sounded like a the best place to lose my lobster roll virginity, and I think I made a great choice, not only for the food, but the setting as well. Sweet, fresh lobster, warm with butter, on a lightly toasted, tender bun...now I know what all the fuss is about! Yelper Daughter and I split one and a bowl of clam chowder, which was tasty but not life-changing. The fella behind the counter was friendly and had our food out to us in a jiffy. Foot Bridge is located on a little spit of land between two coves, among a cluster of tourist-oriented shops. It's a walk-up counter only, but there are benches nearby that look out on a gorgeous rocky cove. The only downside to this arrangement was that I really wanted a beer with my long-awaited lobster roll, but they don't allow alcohol outside. One word of warning that has NOTHING to do with Foot Bridge: the only parking is a lot where you pay at a kiosk. I was literally given a parking ticket by a woman who saw me park and walk toward the kiosk. Then the attendant in the office got an attitude with me when I complained! read more

Hands down this was the best lobster roll we've had in New England. I didn't realize 5 oz was that much meat! The bread was toasted perfectly and itself was a great consistency. It comes with a bag of plain chips. Their two-for-one lobster is a great deal at $18 but there is nowhere to sit. It was raining so we ate in the car. My only suggestion is that the server at the walk up window was actually kind of surly... smile once in a while. Service and ambience: weight: 3, 3/5 Food: weight: 1, 5/5 Rolls were $23, making it the most inexpensive lobster roll we've had. Ever. Value: weight: 1, 5/5 read more
