Nubbs Lobster Shack
Our casual, traditional, New England-style restaurant, Nubb's Lobster Shack, is a must-visit while at Cliff House or in the area. Enjoy a quintessential Maine experience with spectacular ocean views. Nosh on whole steamed Maine lobsters or our famous lobster rolls, or try one of the signature Nubb’s specialties such as lobster totchos, crab cakes or burgers.
Enjoy lively open seating — or sit at our 'bar with a view' while you sample local craft brews and handcrafted cocktails. Take in all that the local flavor has to offer.
In the summer season, Nubb's expands outdoors via a wall of 'open garage doors', onto the patio with picnic tables.
Our Resort pool-side food + beverage service for overnight stay guests is available through Nubb's. Also available, are private dining options such as our SeaGlobes and Captain's Table space.
