The Lobster Pot

John Miller

Let me start with the waitstaff is so kind and great. Everything else was horrible. We used to love coming here but the last 3 times did me in forever. Our bill was over 500 dollars for less than mediocre food. We ordered a steak, told the waitress that the last time we came the steak was so over cooked she promised it wouldn’t happen again and it came out worse than the last time. We sent it back. When the waitress came back to explain they would gladly make a new steak she replaced everyone’s butter (more than half way through the meal) and said the old butter she gave us was contaminated? Most of our party got seafood and ate a good amount of that butter. Later we found out that there was GLASS in the butter. The next day 4/5 of our guests had explosive diarrhea for over 24 hrs. It concerned me that the owner had no remorse for multiple terrible visits. Lastly, while the food was less than edible it’s bizarre that this establishment makes more than enough money to rip out the 1970s carpet that smells of mold and kitchen grease. Take the extra 5 minutes and go to the boathouse up the road for a better experience for the same price.

Nice fried clams, $20.00. Lisa my waitress was awesome! Went back for harvest salad and baked scrod with lobstah!

Nothing great. When the highlight of your meal are the complimentary cheese and crackers then you know its not gonna be good. The service is excellent however. The food is average at best. Just fry everything out of the ocean and stack it on a dish. Nice views though on the water. Decor is fine. Casual. Cocktails and wines are typical. Parking is atrocious. It's catering to the same local clientele since forever. It's really in need of an update all around. I can see how this is good if you're elderly in Bristol and u want to go have scrod and catch a breeze near the water. But if you still have tastebuds then you should go elsewhere.

As good as it gets on the water in RI. Got the lobster. My advice, get the lobster.
