Pricey, average fried food by the beach.
For a chicken sandwich and fries, it’s over $20… That’s the “order it somewhere else” price. Kind of like when you take your car in for service and they say $8k for repairs — sure, they can do it, but do they really want to? Nope.
The menu needs an overhaul. Make people want to buy from you, not walk away. You can get way better restaurant food for cheaper. I guess they survive because of their location, catching weary travelers unfamiliar with the area. Anyone local knows they’re just pedaling mediocre meals next to the Wells Beach restroom (which they guard closely, making sure no one uses “their” spots). As if it were some high-end establishment.
While ordering food, my family was awkwardly stared at for 1–2 minutes by an employee acting strangely. When I went back to the car, he gave me a long lecture about “customers only.” I just smiled and waited for him to finish, until he finally asked, “So are you getting something?” I said, “Well, yes!” He doubted me and I had to show the receipt. Then he suddenly became friendly, and so was I — but seriously, open your eyes and take people at their word. I wasn’t there to sneak in a bathroom break or steal one of their precious parking spots.
What more could you ask for?
Oh, I know… Better ketchup! They have terrible ketchup, which ruins the experience. Strange how a place that charges so much cuts corners on ketchup. Just buy Heinz. Don’t be that cheap establishment with the budget option — people have taste buds.
They do have ice cream, which is a bonus, but if it weren’t for that, they probably wouldn’t exist. The locals know better, which is why they shut down in the winter when you can’t sell sweet cream by the beach.

Hidden gem in wells beach! We have been coming to Forbes for 15+ years and it just gets better and better! Friendly service, great food and a good atmosphere! Conveniently right on the beach. Perfect for breakfast, lunch, dinner and late night ice cream cravings. You won’t be disappointed, well worth a visit!

So let me just say I have been wanting a real Maine lobster roll for many years and for my birthday this year my wonderful husband took me to the coast to get my very fist one (by the way I’m from Missouri so we don’t have real lobster rolls there.) I’m super disappointed it was over $30+ for a roll and french fries and no drink included so for the two of us he payed $73.31. In my opinion it was not worth it, it was very bland the lettuce overtook the lobster and it was a very small roll to be honest the fries tasted better. I had my hopes up for so long and now I wished he hadn’t spent the money !!!! I left the restaurant hungry that’s not supposed to happen, we even asked the locals afterwards if that was normal and they were all shocked at the price. I definitely don’t recommend this restaurant. It actually makes me sad because I have waited so long to try one

Excellent, attentive service, reasonable breakfast…even the gluten free roll was good. Staying at a local hotel and this is right on the beach. Friend had soft serve one day, another day we had clam and seafood chowder and ate overlooking the ocean…both delicious.

Saw bad reviews and chose to see for myself, glad I did. Ate there twice while in town. Great food, vacation location prices to be expected, great service and right on the beach. Definitely would recommend Forbes
