Lunch on the Wharf — Restaurant in Gouldsboro

Small restaurant with covered outdoor seating right on Corea harbor. Parking area is tight and limited. We did see people parking in the street in town. They have clean (and not stinky) port a potties with a hand washing station. They are open Mon-Sat 11-3. Get there early to get a seat and before they run out of food. They were busy around 1:30 on a Monday. You order at the counter, and they deliver the food to you. They were out of crab rolls – bummer! We ended up ordering lobster dinners, lobster roll, clam chowder, haddock chowder, BLT, and Chicken and cheese sandwich. The lobster dinners took about 25 minutes but they forewarned us. The dinners come with instructions on how to eat the lobster which is a nice touch. The lobster was tasty although it was pretty watery so it was ultra messy. Our sides were potato salad and Bush’s baked beans so no surprises there. The lobster roll was very good with plenty of chunks of lobster. The clam chowder and haddock chowder had good flavor but were mostly potatoes with small pieces of seafood. The BLT was ok but needed more – bacon, lettuce, tomato. The thin slice of tomato looked like an after thought. It’s served on a toasted Texas toast style bread. The Chicken and cheese sandwich tasted like, well, chicken and cheese on a thick roll. On a side note, they do not serve liquor but you can bring your own. We would return for the great atmosphere but would be more particular about what we ordered – hopefully...

Fabulous local spot for lunch. The entire restaurant is on a small wharf in the lovely working harbor of Corea. We were there in September and it was still quite busy, a very popular spot.

My husband had the long neck steamers which he says were delicious. They steam everything right out on the deck there in a larger steamer. Makes everything smell so good.

I had the Lobster BLT. What a fabulous idea. It was grilled to perfection, lots of lobster and crisp bacon, fresh lettuce and a tomato. I deconstructed my sandwhich and enjoyed everything individually.

We rounded out our meal with crispy fries and delicious cole slaw.

I love that this place is simple, authentic with amazing seafood. The prices were high, but not out of line with the area, and you get what you pay for. The quality is excellent and truly comes in fresh right off the fishermen's boats.

If you are in the area I highly recommend stopping by for an authentic Schoodic...

The perfect Maine tourist meal! Fresh caught lobster eaten outside, overlooking the Bay. Window orders, food brought to the table and enjoyed in the sun and fresh air. There is very limited indoor seating so, don't expect to get indoor seating as it's first come. A small gravel parking lot and a 25 yard walk to the dining area. It might be doable in a wheelchair with a strong person to push you but, it's not paved at all. Of all our meals out on this trip to Maine, this one stands out for the fresh seafood and great atmosphere. Our group of 5 had three lobster dinners (big 2+ pound lobsters) one plate of crab claws, one lobster roll, a lobster grilled cheese sandwich, and 3 slices of blueberry pie for dessert. Everyone was thrilled with their meal,...
