It has become Mother’s Day tradition that my son takes me to Chef Bob’s for the Lobster Roll . It was a stunning day & there were a few others in line when we arrived. The line moved quickly & their menu is easy to read & decide what you want before getting to the window. I ordered a traditional lobster roll with coleslaw & my son ordered the Connecticut lobster roll also with coleslaw.

We found a picnic table spot to sit with a delightful view. The atmosphere at Red Leg Brewing is a constant hum of conversations & children laughing as they run all around. It’s the best vibe!! Once our buzzer went off, our food was up at the window. There’s nothing better than a Chef Bobs Lobstah Roll! The flavor is amazing, the portion is large and the coleslaw this visit had a little extra goodness!!! I’m sure I’ll be back before next Mother’s Day, if I could eat her every day I would!!! Keep it up!!!

The lobster portions are kind of small for the price, but still tasty and overall, not too bad! The atmosphere of the container beer garden spot is the best. The two lobster tacos for $20 were small but yummy.

First time trying a lobster roll. Decided on a classic, since I want the real deal. Even got extra lobster! Absolutely, positively, the best lobster I’ve ever had. So buttery and cooked to perfection. For those complaining about price, not sure if you noticed, but mom and pop businesses are being price gouged just like us. Lobster is not cheap. I’m willing to spend more money at Bob’s than Red Lobster. Kudos.

The lobster roll was comparable to Massachusetts rolls. It was really good. The fish and chips want New England style, it was mid west style. Heavy flavored on the batter. A bit on the greasy side (the fish itself was good). A bit on the expensive side for what you get.

Took the family in to the new Lobstah Trap. I just got back from Boston and figured I would show the kids the type of food I ate while I was on the East Coast. Pretty good variety. Enjoyed the meal. Kids liked the Lobster Mac and cheese the best. The seafood tots were a big hit as well. The lobster grilled cheese was the second favorite. I will go back.

I have seen this place a few times and finally decided to try it. Let me tell you, this place is AWESOME!! Homemade chips were a nice touch, the seafood tots were way better than I imagined and will be ordering them everytime now. I got the popular Connecticut lobster roll and was very impressed! It had amazing flavor but not so much as to over power the taste of the lobster at all! Seriously the best lobster roll I have ever had and super fresh! My friends got the other lobster roll that comes warm with butter (didn’t get a picture) but they loved it! Definitely going back and stopping everytime I see there food truck for a snack!! 10/10 must try!!!

Growing up near the sea coast in New England, I would wait impatiently for the summer to come and with it the opening up of the seasonal clam shacks. These small restaurants were usually only a tiny building with a kitchen and a few employees. You parked your car or walked up from the beach, went up to a window, ordered your clam roll then waited until your name was called to pick up your freshly fried whole belly clams. You could sit at picnic tables outside and enjoy the sea breeze or just sit along the rocky shore.
When I walked into Chef Bob’s Lobstah Trap for the first time I was immediately swept back to those balmy summer days. The interior is decorated to bring to mind the outside of a clam shack, including the picnic tables that are actually quite comfy. At the window you will find a dry erase board telling you where the fresh, not frozen, seafood was flown in from. You can get some Maine or Canadian lobster, tender and sweet. Get a traditional lobster roll, delicately seasoned and stuffed to overflowing in a buttery split top hot dog bun. Or try some clams from Essex, home of the original fried clam. Though the clams from the Ipswich river, a little ways up the road, are just as tasty. Try them steamed or get some whole belly clams fried to perfection with a light crunchy coating.
Speaking of fried to perfection, I judge a seafood place by how well they can cook scallops. When I tried Chef Bob’s fried scallops I knew I was in good hands. The outside was crisp while the scallop was cooked through, without being over done, and melted in my mouth like butter. If you’ve never had a correctly fried scallop, I would suggest going to The Lobstah Trap just for that experience alone. They can be found in the pile of food on the Fisherman’s combo. A dish that can easily be shared with a friend. Or you can keep it all for yourself and try to pretend you’re not enjoying every morsel.
The sides at The Lobstah Trap are worth swooning over, as well. House made chips that should be sold by the bag. Coleslaw that is light on the mayo and heavy on the crunch and flavor. Even the tartar sauce is full of complex flavor that adds to the delicate flavor of the seafood, instead of just being a gloppy condiment.
If you want to drag along your seafood adverse friends, fear not. The mac n cheese is homemade and the chicken is treated with the same care as the fresh seafood.
Unlike the seasonal clam shacks in New England, Chef Bob’s Lobstah Trap can be enjoyed all year long. You can also follow his food truck around for your lobster roll fix.
Oh, and if the recipe for his tartar sauce goes missing, I swear it wasn’t me.

As a big fan of the food truck, I had been really looking forward to finally going to this location, and I was not disappointed. The Lobster Roll was perfect (like always), the fried Whole Belly Clams were absolutely amazing, and the Mac and Cheese was just phenomenal. Wonderful beer selection, and the whole staff was very nice and helpful. There was a huge line when we arrived, but they tore through it faster than I expected. Food came out very quickly, and there was no quality issues.

Ignore all the 1 star haters, if you look at their profile, they only come here to complain. This place is legit, and very quickly worked out any Grand Opening issues.

I grew up in New Bedford, MA, so it was really exciting to find a seafood restaurant in Colorado that is not only owned by someone from Mass but gets their seafood imported from New England. I haven’t been back home in almost 10 years, and this was the best seafood I’ve had since! It’s hard to find haddock (the best fish) in general, but all the seafood here tasted so fresh despite being nowhere near the ocean. All the meat had its own flavor that you just don’t get from local grocery store seafood, and the lobster roll was hefty on the meat and did not disappoint! It’s quite pricey compared to back home, but considering the food is imported, I think the prices were fair. It’s still cheaper than bland Red Lobster food
Even the atmosphere was very much like restaurants back home, so it was really cool to see that out here in Colorado! I would definitely recommend the clam chowder, clam cakes, and fried haddock!

Wow! And I mean WOW! The traditional lobster roll was amazing and off the hook, but the warm butter lobster roll was just as excellent and perfect!!!

The onion rings with their house sauce were wonderful and the Sea Tots were a seafood sensation satisfying snack for 2.

The Beach Comber drink went well with everything with a nice cherry accent.

We will be back… Soon… Oh ya, we will be back!
