I like this spot A LOT. I visited it multiple times during my stay last year. I have and will…read morecontinue to do so during my current visit to ANP. In short, they are the agent/broker for 300+ local fishermen...selling the freshest catch hauled in daily to the public. They always have a healthy inventory of different seafood and are open all year, which is exceptionally great for off-season travelers like me. Staff are exceptionally friendly and prices are fair. Their sales can also get you product for really cheap (for example, crab is currently 10 lbs / $20 yesterday). Another cool fact is that rare lobsters do end up here once in a while. They are obviously not for sale and will be sent to a lobster "sanctuary" that does not involve a warm bath. There was a blue lobster (1 in 2 million) and two Calico lobsters (1 in 30 million) in one of the holding tanks yesterday. This is something you won't have the opportunity to see at most (if not all) seafood markets.

If you don't know a lobster fisherman personally, chances are when you get here, you'll need to buy some lobster! Look no further than the Co-Op downtown. They're always helpful and charge the best prices I've ever seen. If they don't have exactly what you're looking for up at the main building, they'll go pull fresh lobsters for you from their docks. They also have great recommendations for other seafood you might be interested in locally (muscles, clams, crab, etc.) On Vinalhaven, your only choice is to support local, just the way it should be!

It's last week of August and this is the best deal you can get for live lobster on Mt Desert…read moreIsland. It's a lobster pier, not a restaurant so be sure you have a place to cook it at home. $6.50/lb for hardshell under 2lbs and $7/lb for hardshell 2lbs+. Jeffrey Rich is a 4th generation lobsterman and the great great grandson of founder Charles Henry "Charlie" Rich. Maurice Sr (pronounced Morris) inherited the business from Charlie and his son Maurice (Mo Jr, may he rest in peace) inherited from him. Stop by, say hello to Jeffrey and buy some of the best lobster you'll ever eat for a fraction of the price other lobster piers are offering in the area. They ship to you too so call them and place an order if you're not nearby. It's off the beaten path, but you'll pass some gorgeous scenery on beautiful winding Seawall Rd on your way there. You can try stacking rocks on the beach you'll passby, but don't take any because you'll get fined or arrested by a park ranger. Thanks C.H. Rich for the yummy grub.

FRESH Lobsters and GREAT prices!…read more We were lookin' for soft shell Lobsters or what the locals call 'shedders'. We'd just heard a great recipe, on Maine public radio, for grillin' these babies. So we were on a mission and this was THE perfect place to get some fresh yummy shellfish!! C.H. Rich is nothin' much to look at, but you're not there for the ambiance! So, don't be deterred by the run-down feel of the place. It's a working fishing warehouse with huge lobster tanks in the back. A true Maine experience ;o).

Lots of amazing staff from the guy who helps you pick your lobster, the guy who hands you your order at the counter, and the guys who make sure the dining areas are clean and ready for the next guests. Accessible restroom available for all genders and port a potty too ! The streamlined ordering process and delivery of dinner is amazing! They even circle your number to be called on the receipt! My elderly dad enjoyed the whole experience. Chairs and tables inside in their dining room, covered outdoor dining are was picnic tables with bench seating and covered patio tables with benches too. Bring a bag of trucks for the boys to play in the gravel while you wait for lobsters. Families welcome! Room for groups! We chose this place because of the many cars and reasonable prices. Would return again and again! The lobster was excellent!
