The Travelin Lobster, LLC

Really good hot lobster roll! I had the large hot lobster roll and had so much lobster that it wouldn't fit on the roll, so I just ate it out of the to-go cup. The blueberry soda is always amazing at any of these restaurants in the area. The blueberry pie was good, but smaller than other places I've tried it at. The hours are pretty limited, and you can almost always expect a wait time. We waited in line for 30 minutes just to order.

Stopped at the Travelin' Lobster on our way into Bar Harbor and it was so good! The hot roll was a little expensive but it was expected and the lobster meat that came with it was top notch.

The blueberry ale was great and the dessert is a must. We got the blueberry pie and blueberry ice cream, both of which were amazing and a must try.

Waited over a half hour both times I visited during my trip to Acadia but it was well worth it. The crab melt is the best thing I’ve eaten in a while. The lobster roll BLT was also incredible. Friendly staff with a laid-back outdoor eating area.

My wife and I had this place on our list while visiting Maine solely for the Sampler Lobster Rolls. I was surprised when I arrived as to how long the line was. But let me tell you after I received my food I quickly realized why. It was phenomenal! The lobster rolls were my favorite out of all the places I tried while being in Maine. Followed closely by The Maine Lobster Lady. The bread for the rolls were perfect and they were STUFFED with huge portions of lobster. Couldn’t have asked for a better presentation followed by flavor. My wife ordered the lobster grilled cheese and it was delicious. The icing on the cake was the lobster claw the put on top of it. I HIGHLY recommend trying this place if you have not yet before. You won’t be disappointed. 10/10

We came here twice during our trip. Simply the best whole lobster around! No frills, reasonable market pricing (changes daily). Fisherman run and owned.

DINNER
I got the 1 1/4 lb lobster dinner (comes with a whole lobster, whole corn, mussels, and melted butter). The lobster was perfectly cooked. My husband got the lobster roll sampler, they did not skimp on lobster! His favorite was the hot roll.

We also got a blueberry beer (good) and the blueberry pie with ice cream (delicious). Do not sleep on the blueberry pie! It was lovely (not too sweet, yummy blueberries, with a scoop of well made ice cream).

LUNCH
The lobster Mac and cheese was delicious. It had multiple crab claws and was very rich and creamy. We also got the crab dip, it was okay.

Line moves pretty quickly and the staff are great.

Great atmosphere and food. Had a hot roll, pretzel sticks, crab claws and a couple of drinks. It was $128 with tip for my girlfriend and I. Was very good. Parking available in a lot next to the restaurant and street parking

We didn’t try lobster anywhere else because this was the only place we needed to go! This was one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten! Fresh Hot Butter Lobster Roll. 10/10 would recommend!

We were fortunate enough to hit the Traveling Lobster the last day they were open in 2023 and we are so glad we made it. The Sampler plate of Lobster rolls was fantastic and my seafood averse spouse loved her Mac and cheese and blueberry pie a la mode. I’m not sure when we’ll get back to Maine, but if we’re within a few hours of this place we’ll drive to make it back!

This was the best lobster we had in Maine. The hot lobster rolls were to die for. I had so many claws in my sandwich besides the ones shown on top. I wish we didn’t go on our last day because I think I would have wanted to go here every day!

15 minutes outside Bar Harbor is this little gem of a lobster joint. Nothing fancy just perfectly cooked lobster, steamers or local fresh shucked oysters. Honestly the best lobster roll I’ve ever had and the portions are enormous. I would highly recommend venturing off the tourist spots and giving this a shot.

Bend me over, slap my a**, and call me Sally! That was one of the most delectable meals I’ve had in a very very long time, and definitely the best I’ve had in Maine. Best lobster roll I think I’ve ever had. And the lobster grilled cheese panini was so good. The choice of sourdough bread and havarti cheese was perfect and complemented the lobster very well. The clam chowder was perfectly seasoned. Everything was very fresh and with the volume of customers going through there, there’s no doubt that the seafood is all fresh. Decent draft beers too, big fan of the bright side and blueberry IPA. I’m telling you if you’re in the area and like lobster (or clam chowder… or crab… or anything else you see on the menu), you HAVE to give it a try. This is 100% going on the very coveted “Dan’s Good Food List” (which I just made up). I’ve been coming to a Acadia for the past 15 years and this is my first time trying this place. But now this will be a must stop place every time I’m up here.

The staff was also very nice and friendly. I went back into line again after eating my food because I want to try something else and one of the staff members noticed. You called me over to the side so I can quickly re-order and I have to wait in the line again.

YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS PLACE!

This place lives up to the reviews. Lots of fresh lobster options and delicious food. Everything was fresh and delicious. The portions of lobster were great! Definitely would not hesitate to stop here again!

Stumbled upon this lobster stand post a hike…what a wonderful surprise! Super cute stand with a side bar with barstools and picnic tables. Several different options for lobster rolls, we tried the small classic which was perfect! I had the veggie wrap with hummus and it was surprisingly good. The salad with lemon dressing and blueberries was very refreshing. Local IPA from the Atlantic Brewing company was so refreshing! I wish I could say that this is an undiscovered gem but when we drove past it on Saturday there was a long line! I can see why, so delicious!

We went back twice as a family. Excellent portion sizing for lobster rolls and reasonably priced. Overall we had Mussels, Chowder, Bisque, Lobster rolls, and of course the Blueberry Pie. It’s phenomenal, great place to go- fast service.

This was our 1st lobster roll on our trip to Maine this year and they were delicious! I had the hot (butter) roll and my wife had the classic (Mayo) roll. They were the best lobster rolls we've had so far on this trip. 😋
We placed our order and went to a picnic table with our # and out order was brought to us. Yumm!! 😍
Service was quick & friendly!

Best lobster roll I've ever had! Plenty of outdoor seating, variety of cold beers, fresh shucked oysters, and lots of lobster!

The line gets a little long, so make sure you're there at least 30 minutes before closing!

Best Lobster Roll in Bar Harbor. Ordered a Large Hot Lobster Roll. Yummmm. Giant pieces of lobster, toasted buttery roll, accompanied with salty chips. Don't forget to order a blueberry beer or soda! So good, we went back for a second visit.

Nothing to improve. I’ve probably had 30 lobster rolls in the Boston area in the last 10 years but this lobster was the freshest I’ve ever had. Super friendly staff.

Blueberry pie and blueberry ice cream…wow. Flaky crust and tasty berries. The ice cream was amazing.

Ate here twice because it was so good! Without a doubt, one of THE BEST lobster rolls I've ever eaten. I got the hot buttered roll, my guy had the cold roll (PS if you're indecisive you can get a "flight" - hot, cold & naked).
Hunks and chunks of lobster meat STUFFED into a perfectly buttery bun.
We also got a side of crab dip which was fantastic as well.
The outdoor bar atmosphere and a view of the lobster pots was fun too! I love this place.

Had the best lobster rolls here. Great claw meat and big chunks.
Better pricing that Bar Harbor restaurants. People working bar area were great - super helpful with other recommendations. Also had our favorite blueberry pie. Went 3 times over 1 week - it is that good.
