This place has great food, and a great fun atmosphere. An excellent location to take guests when people are coming from out of town. The dinner menu has all the standard seafood fair, all delicious, plus some very unique items!

The Lobster Trap is a bit of an institution, and its reputation is well deserved. We kept it simple and ordered steamers and 1 1/4 lb lobsters. It was a classic order, and we were satisfied with everything. The wine and beer selection is good. The wait staff is friendly and attentive. Prices were a touch steep, but not out of control. If you can get a window seat the water views are nice. I am sure it gets super crowded in season but we were seated immediately for a mid-week lunch in Nov. it’s nice that they are open year round.

We were on vacation in Cape Cod. I wanted to eat out and get lobster and a crab cake. We looked on line to find a restaurant with good reviews and chose the Lobster Trap. We were not disappointed. The lobster and the crab cake were so delicious. The lobster came with potato wedges and green beans. My daughter ordered the baked cod and mashed potatoes. She also added a side of shrimp. We both enjoyed our meal and would definitely go back if we were to ever visit Cape Cod Massachusetts again.

When it comes to fresh-tasting seafood, I mean COME ON! This place knocks it out of the park.
I was visiting from Maryland and drove from Leominster to the Cape based on a Yelp review. While I have a bit of buyer’s remorse from that long drive (since I didn’t get a chance to actually enjoy the scenery – just the dark ), I can’t say I regret the food.
For context, I’m a Maryland transplant from Cali (a coastal kid if you will lol). Maryland is the home of the crab, but I’ll admit, I donnnnno know. I might need to do a little more hands-on research before I decide who really does seafood best – especially crab lol.
I ordered the clam chowder and the lobster roll. Just a heads up: that roll was $40 buckaroos – phew, but it was absolutely worth it. The lobster was falling out of the bun, and it was hearty. The only thing I would do different is remove the lettuce, it doesn’t need it – it is a star on the roll all on its own. My total was $57.57 before tip.
Oh! The restaurant was VERY clean, which genuinely impressed me. Outside, you still get that seasonal “by-the-sea” smell (you know the one), but the restaurant somehow keeps it completely out of the space. That’s impressive, because that smell often has a way of following you in.
The restaurant itself is well lit, like a beacon of light after driving through that dark stretch of town. We had no trouble parking, though I can tell it fills up fast. Spaces are limited, so carpool if you can.
The service was great, relaxed, approachable, and balanced. Our waitress didn’t hover, she did not pull the disappearing act either. Her timing was juuuuust right lol. (As I wrote that, I thought, “who am I, a reviewer from the Three Bears story” lol). I think at a certain hour they also let guests seat themselves in the dining room. Any other time they have very sweet staff to welcome you in.
Side note: I think that front area, is where you can purchase your own seafood that you can cook at home.
When I come back, and I will return, I’m definitely trying a Bloody Mary and one of their fun-sounding cocktails. And honestly, probably that lobster roll again. Oh, and the crab cake. Sorry, Maryland, I need to see if the Cape does it better lol.
Thank you for everything!

I have been going here all my life. Classic Cape Cod dining. Seafood is so fresh. Water Views are lovely.
Super crowded in summer but all great Cape restaurants are like that.

We came here on a Saturday night around 7 PM — it was incredibly busy. We were told the wait would be 35–40 minutes, but it ended up being just under an hour. Honestly, the wait didn’t feel that long since we grabbed drinks from the bar and hung out outside, which had a great atmosphere.
We were eventually seated at a high table by the river, which was comfortable and had a nice view. Service was solid. The fried seafood was just okay — nothing special — but the swordfish sandwich was really good, and the drinks were even better. I had one with guava juice that was amazing, and my girlfriend got a mudslide that was delicious (and strong!). By the time we got home, we were definitely feeling it — in a good way.
Next time, I’d probably skip the fried platter and go for a lobster or shrimp roll — or try the tuna pad Thai. Overall, fun spot with great vibes and drinks.

This was well worth the stop, the service was lovely great staff. Enjoyed my meal with my daughter we had a blast would recommend. The food was amazing and the dollar shuck oysters was a steal. If you want fresh sea food I would say this is the place!

Nothing but good things to say: lobster roll, onion rings, calamari, even sushi was top notch. Place was crowded but service was attentive. Everything was expertly done, so well we went back for lunch the next day. Looking forward to coming back!

Best lobster roll in the area! And don’t forget the swordfish sandwich and the local oysters. Lovely spot and view on the bay.

We’ve been coming here for well over a decade probably almost 20 years in the last year or so the food has really gone downhill drastically. We ordered a favorite of ours the calamari and it was very heavy battered and really greasy. They used to make a delightful Asian infusion with sweet chili sauce but now it’s fried hot peppers and calamari they put aoli on top of it which makes it even more Gracie just felt yucky after eating it it tasted like grease. We ordered the fish tacos as an entree and it was just soggy and had pretty much raw cabbage it was lukewarm. We ordered the grilled salmon and it had a slatter of brown sauce on it which didn’t taste good. Presentation and taste is mediocre at best we won’t be returning for a while. Picture is fish taco, it should have color. Add some cilantro in red cabbage and maybe pineapple to give it some color just blah blah blah and it was covered in mayonnaise sauce whatever they use.
