Downeast Lobster Pound - Trenton

First time eating lobster and I am so glad it was here. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was AMAZING and so was the atmosphere. I would definitely recommend.

We loved Downeast and stopped in twice in the same day. Nothing fancy, but reasonably priced lobster and a convenient location if you're coming or going from Acadia or Bar Harbor. The blueberry pie was also very good. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20

This is the place to go for lobster! Skip Bar Harbor’s ridiculously overpriced options and get fresh, delicious lobster dishes at Downeast Lobster Pound! We got a single steamer lobster, a lobster roll, and the New England clam chowder. Everything was amazing and super fresh. They pre crack the steamer lobsters for you, which made it pretty easy to get all the meat out without too much fuss or mess. The clam chowder was also very tasty they hit that perfect consistency of thick and creamy without it being gloopy or too heavy. Be aware this is a no frills place. If you’re looking for cozy or chic dining, go to Bar Harbor. You place your order at the counter and then go sit until your food is ready to pick up. There is a nice open/partially wind shielded upstairs deck as well as a little inside area. It was plenty comfortable to eat and hang out.

Can't get fresher lobster at better prices. Unique local feel. Service: Dine in Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Lobster Bisque, Lobster Dinner

While touring around Bar Harbor and Acadia I had driven past this place. Really wanted a lobster for dinner. Their sign said $14.99 for a lobster. Bar Harbor everywhere was over $30. I mean, it's a boiled lobster. Nothing fancy. I ended up stopping here twice! Very unassuming place, kind of hole in the wall vibe. You order downstairs at the fish market. Then go upstairs to the bar. Two fantastic bartenders. (As a solo traveler I usually sit at the bar. met some locals and other travelers. When your pager goes off you go down to get your food, bring it back upstairs to enjoy. It was awesome. Again, I just had a boiled lobster, so can't speak to other items on the menu, but my lobster were perfectly cooked!! Loved this place and if I lived around here it would become my spot! Thanks for two great evenings!!
