Fox’s Lobster House
In peak season, it can feel like a a cattle call waiting for a table in the dining room or window service on the patio. That's because you’ll be eating pre-cracked lobsters and breathing salt air on a headland that would be worth zillions in real estate terms—looking straight at Nubble Light. Fox’s has been here since 1966, and it’s obvious why: It delivers a pretty intensively “Maine” experience just a few miles across the state line. Of the two seating areas, we prefer the patio, as its menu is less expensive (albeit more limited), and it's lovely to be out in the ocean breeze. Don’t skip the blueberry pie after your meal.
