Excellent food and service. If you can't be satisfied here, then you are better suited for the filet o' fish sandwich at Mickey Dees, or Mrs. Paul's fish sticks. Lobster Trap is one of the key reasons why we visit N. Conway. Fresh Maine coast seafood served here can't be beat. More

I have a vacation place down the road and used to order take out frequently. No more. Not only has the food gone downhill, the information (prices and choice of sides) on the website - that I referred to for ordering - is different from when you order and pick up. I mentioned this to the person when I got... More

We searched out the Lobster Trap to find some good seafood in North Conway whilst on a skiing trip. It is a little off the beaten track but fairly easy to find. There was no need to book - we went on a Saturday. Good choice of traditional New England dishes such as Clam Chowder and lots of ways to... More

Great little restaurant on the outskirts of town. GPS directions got us lost but the woman we spoke with was extremely friendly and kmnowledgable and got us in the right direction! Nice cozy atmosphere. My boyfriend and I both had a Clambake for dinner. Seafood was great. We would have liked to have seen a soup or salad bar offering... More

This is the ONLY place to go for fresh seafood in the White Mt. Valley. Seafood is brought in from coastal Maine and is fresh. Not on Main street but worth the effort to find it. More

Had lunch at the Lobster Trap with friends and family. The food was great, had the lobster roll and chowder. The service was fantastic as well. We had two small children with us the staff got them coloring books and crayons and bread (which is out of this world) to keep them occupied. Would highly recommend. This is by no... More

We went on a Saturday evening with a party of 12. The food, service and atmosphere were great. The restaurant was decorated for the Holidays which added to our festive mood. All in attendance raved about their dinners. Everything from steak to seafood was purchased and the wait staff was great. They were very attentive, helpful in making decisions for... More

Have been here twice, enjoyed it both times. Was not full, got to sit by the fire both times. Last year we had the seafood Italian platter and shared it, and with the amount of pasta we even had left overs for the late night snack. Is year we tried the broiled seafood platter with lemon and garlic topping, delicious!... More
