Here’s an experience you’ll never forget. A lobster and seafood shack, located in Ogunquit, Maine. The name — Beach Plum Lobster Farm. The owners — Tina and Dave. They’ve been cooking up these tasty crustaceans for over twenty years. While it’s primarily a spot for takeout, they do offer picnic tables for those who can’t wait to get crackin’. If you’re planning a trip to Maine, here’s why you must stop at Beach Plum Lobster Farm.
Best Value and Best Flavor

Ever had a bite of lobster that was so rubbery that it felt like your jaw was getting a workout? You won’t run into that problem at Beach Plum Farm. Their lobster is cooked to supple perfection.
With each tender bite you get a swash of salty lobster juice that tastes like the ocean — that’s because the water Tina and Dave boil their lobsters in is in fact, seawater. Not only does it enhance the flavor, but it takes the meaning of locally sourced ingredients to a whole new level. Forget about butter — with lobster this succulent, they practically melt themselves.
Welcoming to Tourists and Locals Alike

This place even reels in the locals, where owners are on a first name basis with their regular customers. It feels like walking up to a backyard lobster bake, except these neighbors you actually like. And the food is way better.
They Know Their Seafood

It’s all about knowledgable service. Owners Tina and Dave share a love for the business that’s deeper than the briny seas. It’s felt within minutes of meeting them, and tasted within seconds of that first bite of lobster. It goes without saying — food prepared with passion just tastes better.

Ever heard the saying, “less is more?” Well it’s true — what makes Beach Plum Farm a cut above the rest is that they deliver consistent, flavorful lobster. You’re not going to find that at a restaurant with 50 items on the menu.
Fast, Convenient, Dinner To-Go

Why go out for an overpriced meal when you could eat a tastier, less expensive lobster dinner at home? Break out the stretchy pants and plop yourself down on the couch, because this is gourmet without being grandiose.

It’s not just about what’s on your plate but what’s in your heart. A dish is only as good as the experience it’s served alongside with, and the food combined with the experience at Beach Plum Farm has us hooked. These little details tend to get overlooked by the restaurant industry, but at Beach Plum Farm, they’re what make this place the shipshape landmark it is today.
