A visit to Beal's Lobster Pier is always a highlight — no matter the season.
There’s nothing like a trip to Maine in the summer – and a visit to Beal’s is a must for those looking for an authentic lobster pier experience and the freshest seafood one can find. At our working lobster pier in Southwest Harbor, Maine, you and your family will have a blast watching the boats sail in and the lobstermen unload fresh Maine lobster. Hear the creak of rope on the moorings. Catch the scent of saltwater on the breeze, and enjoy the waterfront view.
Our restaurant is closed from October to May, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy fresh from the pier lobster from Maine’s pristine coast. Even when Maine is cold enough to freeze our beards and eyelashes, we’re still hard at work to deliver live lobsters, fresh and frozen lobster meat, and more fresh Maine seafood straight to your doorstep.
eat, drink & be messy.™️
Maine has so much to offer — even in the off season.

What others say…

The best lobster rolls we've ever had. We ordered 4 classics. Everyone loved it. They used live lobster, which was so juicy and tender. It was not salty as we feared. We topped it up with some blueberry pies to share. The total came to around $40/person, which is reasonable given the high quality of the lobster. Super delicious but definitely not for anyone watching their weight. We were still full after 8 hours. It is worth breaking the diet rule for. Great place to check out if you are visiting Seawall Point. I believe that the Park bus does not stop here so you may want to drive your own vehicle.
We ordered takeout at this restaurant. It was a large order, and we didn't have an issue with something in the order missing. It didn't take long for the order to be ready either. Their lobster roll and crab roll were both delicious.

Beal's has been debated as one of the best joints for Lobster Rolls. It certainly is creative. And mine was perfect with a cup of Lobster Bisque. Depending on what side of the pier they sit you on the view improves and the warm weather Sunshine helps. All sides provide views of an active lobstering community #CarlEatsHere
