The Fish House Grill just celebrated 25 years on the town pier. Both tourists and locals love to hang out at the bar. Try one of our specialty cocktails while you nibble on Buffalo Scallops or Shrimp — a Fish House original.
Get your Maine lobster, fish tacos, or cedar-planked salmon or watch oysters getting shucked at the raw bar.
Not in the mood for fish? We also serve steak, Buffalo ribs, chicken and pasta. And we’ve always got hotdogs and Mac & Cheese for the kids.
There’s plenty of seating, so reservations aren’t necessary, except for parties of 8 or more. Feel free to call ahead at (207) 288-2886 for priority seating.

I really enjoyed this meal! I had the New England Lobster bake with Lobster, Clams, mussels, corn and potatoes. Everything was fresh and tasty! We also enjoyed the fresh calamari and Bacon Wrapped Scallops with Maple. The blueberry pie and blueberry crumple were also great!

We had a great time here. The seating is great as you are on the pier, even if it’s windy a bit.

Staff was nice food was good. My husband had the lobster roll and fries. He liked it. I had the fish tacos. I ate one it was good but couldn’t eat the second. I prefer my fish fried with tarter sauce lol but the tacos weren’t bad just trying something new! Had the real ale, great beer.

Food not good. Piles of chips covering most of the plate. No seasoning on the fish at all for the fish tacos and they put lettuce at the bottom of the taco under cooked fish which is a no-no for any hot food. That’s cooking 101. Haddock sandwich was like a McDonald’s fish filet. Calamari was small pieces and greasy. Chowder was good but needed lots of salt and pepper. Disappointed in the food. Manager did discount the check which is why I’m rating a 1+ because this was not worth it. I should have known when it was not crowded and other places were there must be something wrong. Will not be back and don’t recommend.

We enjoyed the meal very much. The FHG has a great menu, and we enjoyed the chowder, the fish tacos and the Maine mussels. The portions were generous and the food was tasty. Love the garlic butter nage the mussels were happily soaking in. As well, the people at the next table were greatly enjoying a very generous lobster roll and crab rolls. All in all, a very pleasant experience.

Rude Host is running down the restaurant at a prime location down the drain. Such unprofessional person as Host is a repulsive to tourist. Yak!!! Don’t waste your money! plenty to other nice places with good food. Sorry thus restaurant was empty and it certainly because the Host was turning away coustomer.

The staff was friendly but seemed like they were short staffed. The view of the bay was very pleasant. The food was mostly very good. I did not like ” the potatoes ” as they were just boiled potatoes with parsley on them. I tried to add butter, and then that failed, hot sauce….it was absolute fail. I would have been pleased with fries. I forgot to take a pic of my seafood stuffed haddock and it was delicious. The steamers were very good!
