Best lobster roll?

Answer by:

Hi Patricia,

If lobster rolls and chowder are on your bucket list, a stop at Dave's Lobster is a must. Their menu features both traditional cold lobster rolls and my personal favourite—the hot buttered lobster roll—along with white fish chowder and strawberry shortcake.

After a morning at the beach, head across the road to Covehead Wharf and visit one of the Island's most beloved seasonal eateries, Richard's Fresh Seafood. Their famous lobster roll is packed with generous chunks of fresh lobster on a butter-toasted bun with just a touch of mayonnaise and celery. The lobster is truly the star of the show.

If your travels take you to eastern PEI, be sure to stop at the Lobster Shack in Souris. Their fresh, sweet lobster is piled high on a butter-toasted bun and served with pickles and potato chips. The waterfront setting only adds to the experience.

Whichever lobster roll you choose, you're in for a delicious taste of PEI. Enjoy!

Chef Ilona Daniel
