So if your taking that long drive down the old gold coast you'll find this quaint little place off 25a . Good for quick bite. Delicious crab cakes and fresh soft serve ice cream. Cold drafts and cool wine. Definitely a keeper!

Fun, roadside food stand, with an emphasis on seafood. Fried comfort classics, with picnic bench seating. Food is consistently good, excellent crab cakes, and giant butterfly shrimp. Beer batter onion rings, and fresh fries to complete the sides

Love "The❤ Shack"! The staff are like family, the food is fresh and delicious and they are dog friendly. Holly (our cairn) gets her ice water before us, this is an outdoor establishment so watch the weather. From the day they open for business until the last day, you'll find us here on weekends. Treat yourself to a fresh lobster roll, or the juiciest burger around, you won't be sorry. Tiki Bar included! FYI-casual👍

We had so much fun sitting at the bar at the shack. Food was great. Staff is friendly and welcoming. A bit pricey but great local area food.

My husband and I have been Shack fans for years; this is our second visit there this summer. We ordered a cold lobster roll, crab cakes, and fried clams. While still very good, I noticed the portion of lobster salad in the cold lobster roll was definitely smaller than last year's. The amount of whole lobster pieces was also less (most of it was ground up lobster). If you are as picky as I am w/lobster rolls (lol) it wasnt as satisfying as I expected. Crab cakes (2) were delicious, (perfectly seasoned and the right proportion of crab to bread crumbs), if a tad bit overdone. My husband's fried clams and fries were perfectly done and delicious w/crunchy coating and tender clams inside...also a smaller portion than last year. Cost: $70 Would we return? Yes, but it isn't our first choice for seafood as it has been in the past.

We had a one-day trip in Long Island and decided to have dinner there. The lobster roll, seafood quesadilla, and mussels taste great. Try their pink lemonade. It will be surprising you!

This place has been around for ever. I used to go here a lot in the late 1980's. My burger and clam chowder we're really good.

Very expensive , the food is good but I got a $32 lobster roll and the whole thing was stuffed with lettuce, with some lobster lightly sprinkled on top. I was highly disappointed. I was literally eating buttered lettuce. Saw some other dishes and the portions looked big. So maybe skip the very expensive lobster roll and go for something else. Went back to try it again, got the shrimp Caesar salad. Not really impressed, maybe I’m just ordering the wrong things. Staff is pretty rude so I won’t be going back.

The Shack looks like a fresh seafood spot, but don’t be fooled, it’s all frozen food straight off a Sysco truck. My fried shrimp were over-battered, barely cooked, and mostly breading. Six tiny pieces for $24. They pretend it’s fresh and made on-site, but it’s clearly frozen junk dropped in a fryer. Great atmosphere, terrible frozen food. Why take shortcuts when you have such a good clientele and abundant clientele.

I paid $80 for two lobster rolls, $40 each for what looked like a sample at a food festival.I blinked and thought the appetizer arrived early—turns out, that was the main dish. You’d expect something generous at that price, but these were tiny, with barely enough filling to justify half the cost. I’ve had appetizers with more substance. To those who might say “it’s about quality, not quantity I get that. But even the quality was just decent, not exceptional. When you’re charging premium prices, the food should reflect it in both flavor and portion. Unfortunately, it felt more like a case of cutting corners than offering a refined experience. Overall, it came off as cheap with their portions and value. Definitely not worth $40 a roll, and I left still hungry and disappointed.
