We had another wonderful meal here today. Service was just a bit slow, but it was quite busy. They have a good beverage list (beer, wine, etc.). The menu has many options as well. Our meals were delivered hot and tasted great. The fries are really very good.

After a great lunch we where heading back to the condo discussing founding a lobster pound when came upon the Maine Lobster Outlet. After a quick (legal) U-Turn we when in to find some beautiful lobsters and other seafood (scallops, clams, shrimp and oysters). In short we walked out very happy with a pound of picked lobster meet and some calm chowder. Good prices and service. Now just decide what to made.

We stayed just up the street at an inn and this place was recommended. It was a short walk and we got right in and sat outside (they are first come first served). There were heaters on the porch so although it was chilly, we were plenty warm. The service was great, very personable. I had a seasonal sangria to drink. It was awesome. Not overly sweet which can be the case sometimes with sangria. We got a plantain chip app that was delicious. I had the wasabi tuna meal and my partner had the fish ad chips. We both agreed it was some of the best f/c we've ever had! After dinner we had a boozy coffee drink and shared the cheesecake which is made a local bakery. The blueberry compote was outstanding! The owner also happened to be outside on the porch chatting with customers and even brought out blankets for guests sitting outside. Game changer! He was very nice and personable as well. Our only hangup was that there was not a hot coffee drink on the menu so we asked them for a decaf with 2 different liquors and were charged $22 :( Overall a great spot that we will definitely revisit when in the area!Thank you for the review! We love sitting outside as often as we can and we love that our guests do too! We're so glad you enjoyed your visit with us and hope to see you back soon!

Knowing we were visiting York,Me. I checked restaurant reviews ,we decided to try Fishermanâs Dock. Let me start by saying , âGo no furtherâ to find your meal.The food here is a 5 star rating . The other two people choose clam chowder Lobster and steamers .( I tried my wifeâs and can tell you ,both chowder and steamers were excellent. My self I decided on the seafood platter, wow ; Fried clams, scallops, shrimp and fish . This platter is huge and was cooked right. The service is also awesome,they continually check to make sure customers are happy. We did not have to wait to sit, but upon leaving around 5:15 noticed long line outside. This is a restaurant worth driving to eat.Notice picture

A perfect place for a reception after a wedding up the street in York (Congregational Church that was picture perfect). Service was excellent and food very good. No A/C so pretty warm if in the middle of the summer. Function hall was plenty large enough for this reception of 150+. We're sorry it was a little toasty the day of your visit! Generally the fans keep things quite breezy and cool. Glad you enjoyed the reception and hope you'll have the opportunity to come see us again.

I went to the Shearwater for the first time and sat at the bar. It was late afternoon and quiet, with about a half-dozen people. I took advantage of their happy hour and got a generic white wine. The complementary cheese, crackers and grapes off to the side were a nice touch. I also ordered the fried oyster appetizer, which was good but could have been more generous. When I got the bill, I was surprised to be told that there was a 20% 'service charge' added on, based on what the 'real' cost of the wine would have been without the discount. A tip is supposed to be voluntary and based on the service received. I've never seen this done anywhere else. I can understand it if there's a special function or a large dining group, but during happy hour? It's a tacky thing to do.

My husband and I stopped at the Lobster Cover for lunch and as soon as we sat down I wanted to go but he was hungry :(. The flies were abundant and busy which for a restaurant isn't a good sign. After placing our order of a beer, soda, native steamed mussels and a lobster roll we were given a small basket of stale bread. My husbands soda came quickly and I finally after 5 minutes flagged down our waitress for my beer, which she forgot about. The mussels arrived but were in more of a water broth, I think someone drank the white wine they were supposed to be cooked in. They lacked flavor of any kind, just bland with boiled down onion chunks and tomatoes. The lobster roll was smothered in mayo :( such a pity to ruin the lobster with that amount of mayo. All in all a waste of a meal and money. The saving grace was my beer and the fries on the lobster roll plate, but I kept thinking how many flies might have already tasted them.As we left we noticed some customers being served on the outdoor deck, funny because that's where I wanted to sit but was told it was closed:(

I love this place, the lobsters are huge and kept in live wells, not tanks, less stress for them. We got two dozen and cooked them up within an hour. Absolutely amazing flavor, plenty of meat. The people were very kind and efficient.
