Reviews for Beal's Lobster Pier in Southwest Harbor, ME
8/12/2022 I was trying different lobster places throughout Maine and I wanted to try one that had been around a long time. ... Beal?s was a great spot! The view from my seat was fantastic! The lobster roll was delicious and full of lobster meat. I hada blueberry soda with it as well as a slice of blueberry pie. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend stopping here for abite to eat. They have fresh lobsters in a tank to choose from when you order. The staff was friendly and service was fast! Read more
This is truly the Maine experience you expect when you travel here. The lobster meal was great as well as a ?fun mess?. Bring... your appetite, it won?t disappoint. The manager was very friendly, and the crew provided an informative explanation from lobstercatching that morning to the cooking pot and your dinner plate. Memorable Experience ???? Read more
The GOAT! Been here 4-5x. The lobster could not be fresher - really feels like saltwater. Lots of gluten free options if you... have an allergy - including fried food. If you?re coming you must get the lobster bites - I?ve never seen them anywhere else andthey?re flavorful and delicious. They?ve got different butters and flavors for lobster rolls if you?re looking to branch out,but all the classics are perfect as well. Never had a dish that was less than 11/10. Great drink options and views as well!! Read more
Tonight we went to Beal's for lobster. The lobster 1 1/2 lb was delicious. We got the corn, coleslaw, and corn bread with... dinner. Sat on the deck overlooking the Southwest Harbor. Sunset. Lobster. Summer vacation in Maine. Read more
Within 5 minutes of arriving to a line of 20+ people, the owner came out to give everyone the ?lay of the land.? That included... pointing out the bar for those who wanted a beverage while waiting and apologizing in advance for any issues as they were, likeeveryone, short staffed. They didn?t appear short staffed, the line moved quickly, and everyone was friendly and helpful.Couldn?t have been a better experience. A bit pricey, but totally worth it for the food, the view, and the service. Read more
We went here back in august 2018 and then again in September 2021. Their menu is definitely full of delicious selection however... it definitely has become a tourist trap and the prices are a bit over the top. There are other alternatives but we gave themanother chance this time because their food is yummy. We ordered lobster rolls, a seafood platter that included scallops, shrimpand fries etc. There?s plenty of seating and they serve alcohol as well but if you?re on a budget then skip this spot.

The place was great for the whole family! I ended up with the turf and surf and was glad I opted to get it. As always lobster... was going but the sirloin tips were awesome!!! Outside dining on the pier and the kids enjoyed watching the crabs over the edgewalking around and fighting. We got there right before a crowd so it was nice. They assign seats and you order at the counterbefore sitting down. They weigh the food in front of you so you can see what you are getting. Great experience! Last time weonly got burgers but seafood was definitely on the menu this time around. My oldest got the lobster BLAT and loved it! Read more
Nice but I was underwhelmed. I really wanted to like it but my BLT with lobster didn?t have any lobster in it. The $40 lobster... was decent sized (2lb) but definitely paying for the scenery. We enjoyed paying less on a roadside lobster grab and go spot. Read more
