    Amazing little place, on Main Street but still easy to miss unless you are looking right at it. A favorite with the locals, and just one meal there will make that obvious. Others have talked about the size of the portions, but even more importantly is the quality of the food. We had the Haddock Burger with Fries, and the Haddock Platter, also with Fries and Slaw. If eating in your car is your thing, take the time to drive across the street into the parking lots behind and across from the Machias River General Store. There you can watch the goings on at the Bad Little Falls Park - depending upon the time of year and season, folks will be casting their nets across the Falls. That spectacle, combined with the terrific food served to you by the skilled staff, will be well worth your visit. Recommended!

    We stayed at the "Machias River Inn" and had planned to eat breakfast at the nearby "Helen's" but it was closed.

By their own choice, the restaurant will serve patrons drinks on their rooftop deck, but not food. We stayed for a drink, after advising them that our disappointment could have been prevented if their website (and other internet sites) had been clear about their policies. Take note, they might like dogs, but the claims of dog-friendliness are over-rated.

Grab a paper menu, find a table and when you're ready go up to the bar to order your food. The wait staff brings your food to your table when it's ready. I've had many lobster rolls and this was def one of the best I've had. First of all it was huge. The lobster was in chunks it was not chopped up. It was perfectly seasoned with some mayo but not overpowering so you can truly savor the fresh lobster. It came with a bag of chips. To be honest I didn't care for them as the roll was the main event here. Initially I thought I couldn't finish it because it was so big but I was in lobster roll heaven and didn't stop eating until every bit of this lobster roll was gone. No regrets. Definitely the BEST lobster roll in Lubec. I have tried many and there is no doubt. After we ate we sat on one of the cute couches in the restaurant to have one drink and chat. Such a cozy vibe!
