On our way to Portland we stopped for the afternoon in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. After some searching the night before for a stop over with lobster we settled on the Lobster Shack at Two Lights. The Yelp reviews were either raving or bitching about parking and tourists so we rolled the dice. Before lunch we stopped at Fort Williams Park to see the shore and the Portland Head Lighthouse. After getting our feet wet it was on to lunch.
The Lobster Shack at Two Lights
As I mentioned before, the Yelp reviews were either glorious or horrendous. The complaints mainly centered on the parking situation, long lines and tourists. Well we were tourists, we found a parking spot and only waited 10 minutes. Granted this was a Tuesday afternoon but nothing to complain about. The lobsters were soft shell which neither Julie or I have had. They were much easier to get the meat out of but were somewhat smaller than the day before. Instead of corn we went with fries and everything was great. What was amazing was the view. The Lobster Shack at Two Points literally sits on the cost of the Atlantic. We climbed down a rocking hill and sat on the shore for the afternoon. The lobster and the view is what everyone on Yelp was swearing by and it was justified. Like Chauncey Creek, Two Points was BYOB so I polished off a couple of Ipswich Summer Ales on the edge of the continent.
