Our favorite Cape Cod Lobster Rolls

1. Popponessett Raw Bar| Mashpee

Featured on the  Phantom Gourmet, the Raw Bar was designated as having the biggest & best lobster roll from Maine to Connecticut.

“It’s truly loaded with chunks of the best lobster meat, no fillers. 2 pounds in every roll  – it’s fun to share or not! Bet you can’t eat one.”
– Debbie Regan

2. The Lobster Trap | Bourne                                                                                                                   

The Lobster Trap is a family owned and operated business that serves an elevated cuisine, in a fun and casual environment for the entire family. 

“They have the most amazing Lobster Reuben sandwich! Different than a traditional lobster roll but every bit as delicious. A real twist on an old favorite”
– Team Guthrie & Mabile

3. The Knack | Orleans

Everything is made in-house. They make their own sauces, developed specifically for each of their  sandwiches. The seafood is battered with a homemade recipe developed over sixty years ago. The onion rings are also hand-cut.

“The Knack’s lobster roll, prepared with a light lemon aioli, is delicious with big chunks of claw and tail. We order ahead, pick up our yummy lobster rolls and drive out onto the Outer Beach on the Orleans residents’ side at golden hour. We linger over appetizers, wine, enjoy the lobster rolls watch for whales, and the moon rise. It’s our heaven on earth.”
– Christine Altneu

4. Raw Bar | Hyannis

With a prime location on Ocean Street, the Hyannis Raw Bar serves both a traditional lobster roll and a hot buttered lobster roll with their famous fresh-daily lobster meat.

“By far the best! It’s fresh, massive (feeds 2 people!), and reasonable priced!”
– Catherine Baran

5. Jim’s Clam Shack | Falmouth Harbor

Waterside seafood shack on scenic Falmouth Harbor.

– Heath Coker

6. Bubala’s by the Bay | Provincetown

The lobster here is never-ending. Lobster salad sliders, lobster and soul roulade and lobster ravioli. You surely won’t leave hungry.

– Eric Clark

8. Steve & Sue’s | Hyannis
