My mom and I stopped in for lunch today after shopping at the outlet stores. We decided to split the Admiral's Platter, which was comprised of fried haddock, bay scallops, shrimp and clam strips, accompanied by french fries and creamy cole slaw. While the plate was a good size to share, the food was just ok. Mom and I agreed that the haddock was the best part of the dish. The clam strips were good, but not terribly crunchy, and the scallops and shrimp were both tiny. The french fries were a bit soggy and flavorless. The cole slaw was good. The staff was friendly and helpful, but the food was mediocre. It's a reasonably priced restaurant to grab an ok meal in the area. read more

Great food for a fair price! We came in for the wicked cheep twin lobsters on Thursdays - what a great deal! Andre was our server and was awesome, honestly made the night for us. Cute lil vibe inside quiet music so easy to talk to everyone at the table. Chowder was a last min add neither of us regretted. read more

Our routine has been to stop in for lunch after driving up the coast from our state. We generally get here right at lunch opening. Today we were seated right away and contacted by the peasant server quickly. Decided to try the fried haddock sandwich. Got one as listed with sourdough bread and we wanted to switch out the bread for something else. They only had a hamburger bun to swap so we went with that. Sandwich was very tasty, the sourdough tasted like a toasted sandwich bread which was nice. Also had a cup of clam chowder. Rich and creamy and very tasty. read more

Weathervane Seafood Restaurant - Steamed clams! - Seafood Near Me - Kittery, Maine

This was good, not great. I can only judge on my one visit. I had shrimp cocktail and the clam chowder. The shrimp were chilled and properly cooked, but there was barely any cocktail sauce to dip them in - it comes in the base of the glass. The clam chowder was decent but mine didn't have many clams. Maybe it was just the luck of the ladle. My friends had the fish chowder and fish and chips which they seemed to enjoy. The fish and chips looked crispy, not greasy. Definitely a good spot to stop for lunch if you were just over looking at the Kittery Trading Post. It's literally just across the street and they have plenty of seating. Our server was pleasant, but we had to chase her down for the check. read more

We ate here many years ago and stopped here again for lunch. Comfortable atmosphere, friendly attentive waitress, nice menu. We ordered the fish chowder made with haddock, fish and chips and grilled salmon with an apple maple glaze. Everything was tasty, came hot hot, plated nicely. Great batter on the fried fish and the salmon was tender and seasoned nicely. We enjoyed our lunch. Prices on par with the area. We had a memorable meal. read more

We stopped by after a long beach day and there was no wait to sit down. Our server Tijana was very smiley and kind, and was an overall excellent server. We ordered a clam chowder bowl to share and two orders of steamers. The steamers were 1/2 lb per bucket and surprisingly had a lot of clams. They were so good and so fresh and so so worth it. The restaurant itself seemed a little dated in the inside, but will definitely come back again! read more

I've been to Weathervane every time I've been in Maine on vacation. We first came here in 2000, and the food had always been incredible. My husband and I were here last week on our anniversary trip, and I told him this is THE place for lobster. I forgot how massive the restaurant is, but it's also very charming. We split the twin lobsters and ordered broccoli and mashed potatoes as our side. I informed our waitress about my need for gluten free, and it wasn't an issue at all. (Their website claims they offer GF bread for lobster rolls.) My husband is still talking about how incredible that lobster was, and he said it was one of his favorite places we went to on our trip. We're already planning our next vacation in New England, so we will definitely be back! read more

Food is average, service is pretty good and the restaurant itself is in need of a facelift. Today I had the broiled Halibut with a side of fries. You can get the fish fried as well. The broiled version was on the bland side...I wish they offered grilled as an option but they don't. I have eaten here before and ordered the fried clams which were pretty good and serving size was very nice for the price. Overall, not overly impressed with the place. They do have a nice menu and I'm sure the fried seafood dishes are very good. My recommendation would be their fried belly clam platter. Bon appétit read more

Weathervane Seafood Restaurant - Broiled halibut sandwich - Seafood Near Me - Kittery, Maine

Hasn't changed much in the 15 years we've driven up Rte 1 in Maine. We stop out of habit or maybe tradition? Prices are high for fresh seafood. The coating on fried food is very good, light and flaky. IMO, the chowder is canned for sure and way thick. Portions are big for things like a haddock fish sandwich and most everything is loaded with fries. We split a special fried scallops and fresh whole clams dinner which came with fries and cole slaw. Asked to sub the fries with onion rings knowing there'd be a small up charge but when they said $5, we said no thank you. Whole belly clams were delicious, clean and tasty. Scallops were small. I HATE it when it seems they've cut a big beautiful sea scallop in half to give the illusion of more. Tasty but bring your wallet! read more

Decided to stop in Kittery for dinner on our way to Portland ME. We were seated right away. They have severL little sections to be seated in. We got the Lazy Man Lobster which included choice of 2 sides. I got the roasted potatoes and broccoli. The kiddo got a pizza and broccoli. Portions were large. The food was delicious. Con: it was freezing in the Restaurant. We had to dig out our sweaters from the car. And I was still cold. My hands and ears were so cold. read more

So so touristy seafood restaurant with nothing special. The lobster tails are deep fried which was a definite turn off.

Our server was kind and accommodating, the atmosphere was clean and quiet around 5:30 pm on a summer Monday, and the food was delicious.

The food and service were amazing! Loved everything we ate. The calamari was delicious along with the clam chowder. I had the broiled scallops and they were cooked to perfection. My husband had a delicious burger. Everything was a treat. Our waitress was attentive but didn't hover. I highly recommend. read more

Unfortunately the service was rude, the wait was long and the food was average. I will say though on a positive note that the lobster roll was delicious! We ordered: -2 lobster rolls -fries -fried clams and shrimp -clam chowder The clam chowder was all potatoes and no clams. The broth itself tasted of just potatoes and cream. In essence, the chowder was more of a potato chowder and definitely did not have that New England flare. If the service was friendly and not rude and condescending, I would have cut this establishment a break. However, this was not the case and I will most probably not return back here ever again! read more

The Saturday to start February vacation, 2pm. Seated in under 10mins, served politely. Haddock Melt was 10/10. Hot, crispy outside, moist and flaky inside. Fries were simple but options to season were available. Coleslaw was tasty. Broiled Salmon was good, but my wife stole more of my haddock once she had some, preferring it to the salmon.. It's got a bit of a tourist trap vibe, but past that, the food was hot and good. And the service decent. Price is up compared to other restaurants, but not bad for seafood and tourist area. I don't know what it did to deserve a sub 3 average, but today's visit was a chill 5 (would prefer to be giving 4.5 but that's not an option). read more

After striking out at two other spots to get some lobster our road trip, we hit paydirt here at the weathervane seafood restaurant in Kittery! The restaurant was not overly busy, but we still sat at the bar as it's one of our more comfortable places. Both of the bartenders were very personable and friendly! As a bonus of the Cleveland Browns game was on the television as well! I appreciated our bartenders suggestions as we were really unsure what to get. I decided on the small salad with lobster and my wife the chicken Caesar wrap. We opened with an order of fried pickles as well. For our beverages, I wanted something local and the bartender recommended one of the local IPAs. I wish I could recall the name, but it was absolutely delicious! My wife decided on a Seaglass Pinot noir. Our food came out after a reasonable amount of time and was absolutely delicious! We really appreciated our bartenders information about the local area as well as their hometown. My wife and I were both very happy with the food and the service! Give them a shot, if you're in the area! read more

My boyfriend ordered the admiral platter. I skipped out as there are no vegan options whatsoever. Anyway, The French fries were cold and wet/soggy. Not even fried. They were out of clam strips and whole belly clams so he substituted bay scallops. The portion was tiny! The breading fell off every bite. Not worth the $$. $52 for one meal and an appetizer. Better places to visit for fresh seafood!! read more

Highly recommended. My burger was slightly charred (good) cooked as I requested and served on a warm plate. Including fries which were not at all greasy. I thought they were baked. Nice potato flavor. Also the little cup of coleslaw. The wife had a salad with shrimp and was quite happy. Good beer choices too. No deserts today--stuffed! There are highs and lows in food in this area so do yourself a favor and stop in. Forgot to mention that the restaurant is spacious , comfortable and quiet. read more

Ordered two lobster rolls. One hot one cold. Waited for over 35 minutes. Both were terrible but the hot one was dry and old tasting and not edible. I told the waitress and she got the manager, a rude person with no customer skills, who said the policy does not allow full refund because I had eaten more than half, which was not true. These lobster rolls are tiny.when asked to speak with her manager she said she was in charge for the day and claimed: I am leaving your table now. Do yourselves a favor and do not eat here. You will be treated as poorly as the food. read more

The Weathervane has been our go-to place whenever we've been in Kittery - for probably 30 years. Now, the only word I can use to describe it is "meh." The food is good, but not great. The prices are outrageous, but that's the case everywhere. Three of us had lunch there yesterday - one fried seafood platter, one haddock sandwich, one salad with lobster meat, two desserts. $150! That's right - One hundred fifty dollars for lunch for three people - at the Weathervane! They used to have the most delicious dinner rolls. I asked the server if she could bring some, and the response was "We don't offer rolls anymore." Well you know what? I don't go to the Weathervane anymore. read more

Seafood as it should be, though I do wonder, why every restaurant is so stingy with cole slaw. Anyways, I was leary I'd receive the stereotypical greasy fried seafood over an excessive mound of greasy fries. Not so! Perfectly cooked, generous seafood. Admiral's plate, food for [at least] two. Service was swift, without any bum's rush sense. read more

Terrible service, terrible food, took forever to get the meals. It may be in a convenient location, but it's not worth it. Never again
