I'm a born-and-raised New Englander (dad was from Maine), now living in the Pacific Northwest and this video REALLY made me miss visits to the coast of Maine! Thank you for sharing, and maybe inspiring a return visit soon.
Yay so happy to see the both of you again!!!🥹🫶🏼

Here is what I learned just getting back from Maine for a week. There two major styles of lobster rolls. The Maine lobster roll is going to be served cold with a toasted bun and light mayo. The Connecticut lobster roll is warm and buttery. The lobster roll from Maine is the cold lobster salad you see at the grocery stores. It is tasty but not worth buying more than once in a life unless you love cold seafood on warm bread

Cool! We prefer the warm buttery ones 🤤
Love the energy and flow if the video. Lol first Lobster Roll can take some time. I'd love to see y'all try the popovers from the Asticou and the Stadium. See which one is the best. You did well showcasing some great spots on MDI. Something that I definitely appreciate having been up here for 6 Summers.

Thank you!! ☺️ Yes, that cold lobster roll is going to take some time to get used to. 😂 Popovers are one of our new favorite things- we want to try them all! 😋 And being that you’ve been going for six summers we’ll definitely take your recommendation next time we go. Thanks, again, for watching and commenting. Means so much! 😊
Love the video More more more more
I live on an island just off the coast of bar harbor. Its always fascinating to me watching people experience my neck of the woods. Next time you're in the area you need to have an authentic lobster boil on the beach. I'd be more then happy to do that for you if its something you guys are interested in.

Are there warm lobster rolls in the city of Bar Harbor? Having such a hard time finding one.
I'm headed to Bar Harbor soon. I appreciate the hot lobster tip since I'm not that used to seafood. Have a great day!

The average price for a lobster roll should always be included in these type of videos. In Bar Harbor they go for close to 40 dollars. And it’s cold lobster on a hot dog bun that’s all. Down the road ten mins away it’s $25 -$30 for one roll. My suggestion is ordering an entire lobster platter and asking for a roll on the side. That’s about 45 dollars but comes with so much more

Hey Evan! We agree the prices should be included! That’s why we included ours 😊 thanks so much for the tip about a more affordable one down the road! We will definitely hit that up next time we go 😋

Thank you for your service. You ate the popover like a marine.
We went to coastal maine just this last May. Aside from the amazing trip we had, my experience was that the lobster roll was the biggest let down of the whole trip. I had seen so many video talking about HOW AMAZING they were...well 36 dollars later after biting into a cold soggy roll...i was beyond dissapointed. We went to one of the best known lober roll shacks too. Who wants to bite into cold, wet, chewy lobster?!? I was expecting the lobster to be freshly steamed and warm...not the case. To each their own i guess.
Heading to Baaaa Haaabah in two weeks. Will definitely try out some of these
Heading this way from New Orleans with the family in May , thanks for the recommendations. looks like I'll be dropping some cash on lobster rolls, I love them.

-Girl, it is really bad manners to shove a whole popover in your mouth and take a big bite. Break off a bite sized piece at at time.
I just came back from Bar Harbor. Was a bit disappointed with the lobster rolls. First and foremost very pricey. Even at lobster shacks. You are going to pay between 30-40 bucks for abt 4oz of lobster meat on a hot dog bun (probably a bit smaller then most hotdog buns). Second most are served cold and not warm (this preference of course). I also noticed the buns, on the inside are kinda perked up, the bread that is, giving the illusion that the buns are small but bursting with lobster meat but that’s not the case. I live in NY and I go to a restaurant out in Mattituk that makes lobster rolls that would put those in Maine to shame. Triple the size, and cheaper by a few bucks. And this restaurant not even known for lobster rolls. The whole lobster is in the roll. The Maine lobster rolls are not lacking flavor though and Bar Harbor beautiful nonetheless!

We would have to agree about them being pricey. We didn’t expect that. And after trying both hot and cold rolls we both said we preferred the hot. It sounds like you have a good lobster spot though! We may ask for more details if we make our way to NY. 😂
It wasn’t for me either.
It is so off putting that you both take a bite and then talk with your mouths full of food.
Manes food reviews is a better channel than yall, start learning from them
If you don't like lobster, I would consider you disqualified to review bar harbor food
