Cavendish Lobster Shack is what East coast travel dreams are made of. You always hear about East coast hospitality, but we didn’t experience it from any other establishment or local until we walked into this restaurant. The staff are beyond accommodating and attentive. We felt so welcomed and cared for! We got a lobster roll and the seafood chowder. -The lobster roll was great! Lots of lobster meat and the bread was perfectly toasted. The French fries are like Costco fries and if you know Costco fries then you know it was hecking good. -The seafood chowder was the best we have ever tasted (though it can be ‘heavy’ for those sensitive to salt/cream). It was SO good we ordered a second bowl even though we were already stuffed. I also LOVED their bread roll; it was a sweet bread that was deadly delicious when dipped into the chowder. We compare every lobster/seafood meal we have on our East coast trip to the Cavendish Lobster Shack and nothing measures up. We’ll definitely be coming back to Cavendish if not for the beaches then just for this place.

I’m still dreaming about this lobster roll! So filling, and every bite was fresh. Not pictured were the fries which as another review said, were exactly like Costco fries (YUM!!!!). I wish we could eat here every day of our East Coast trip.

The fish and chips at the lobster shack were amazing. I had a cup of chowder as an appetizer, which was served on time and delicious. Homemade as well. Service was prompt and food was served hot. Menu is reasonably price and offers a good selection. Highly recommend.

I absolutely love this restaurant because the food, service, and price are all perfect! The lobster I ordered was absolutely amazing. This memory is one that I won't forget. I want to express my gratitude for all the wonderful service you provided. If I ever have the opportunity to go there again, I will definitely make sure to visit.

We had a great experience at the Lobster Shack. Service was friendly and quick. The food was really good. The Seafood Chowder was very tasty. The Lobster roll was a good size..good flavor..perfectly toasted bun and the fries were better than most places. Portion sizes were appropriate for the price.We were all happy with our meal and we will return. 🙂👍

Heart of the fun filled tourist destination! This resto knows what PEI is about, delicious food and friendly & excellent service, the nautical ambiance is cozy too! Adam our server is the best! You gotta have the steamed lobster meal with PEI mussels. The best! We sure will be back again!

And the fish and chips was so good... overall I was impressed with the food... sorry I ate most of the food b4 taking pictures lol

Came back to this restaurant after a few years. First place our family went to eat in PEI after not visiting the island. The fish n chips were fabulous. Not what the usual floury and oily fish n chips you are used to, better than any other place. My mom ordered baked lobster which we never tried before and it gave a new perspective to what lobster is like. Of course we ordered the seafood chowder as well. So comforting and delicious. Can’t wait to come back again.

Wow! The BEST and freshest lobster meal around! Melt in your mouth and cooked to order! AND, we were the last official customers of the season! Adam was our server and he was AWESOME! He made the experience fantastic! Desiree was also serving us and she was awesome too! The Seafood Chowder was amazing! We went to another place after this one and it didn’t compare! Everything about our experience from service to food, was right on point! Exceeded our expectations!

First lobster dinner I've ever had and the Cavendish Lobster Shack did not disappoint. Lovely staff and service! Served with Local craft beer and Mussels! Super delicious. 🦞

My family and I came here for one purpose: to eat their lobster dinner set (and nothing else)! We ordered two steamed and two baked; latter was $2 more per set. All of us were very satisfied with the meal. Their lobsters were very fresh, the sauces were tasty, the corns were sweet, the salad came with Italian dressing, mussels were nice touch, and we were so glad that they served garlic bread instead of fries (because we have been eating too much fries)! The restaurant was relatively empty on a Friday at 1 PM. Our server was very nice and attentive to us. Overall, I would recommend this place!

Best lobster roll I've ever had!! Portion sizes were good for the prices, service was excellent. Definitely a must stop on the island for a lobster roll 🦞

My husband and I stopped by here for quick dinner while taking a break from the rides at Sandspit (next door). We wanted something quick to eat - but still yummy seafood - that we could get nearby and then return to the rides at Sandspit. This was the perfect choice! Our server, Maddy, was incredibly outgoing and friendly and made us feel super welcome, despite the fact that we came in 15 minutes before closing. My husband had the lobster roll and I had the lobster poutine. Both were incredible, but my husband rated the lobster roll as one of his “top 5 lobster rolls I’ve ever had!” because the lobster meat was diced up small (not chunky) so the flavour blended nicely with the creamy sauce. The fries in the poutine were perfectly crispy and delicious! Thanks again Maddy! We appreciated all the advice advice the island, as well.

my family and i visited pei for a week and this was by FAR the best restaurant we’d been to! the prices were reasonable, and the portions were HUGE (see the bucket of mussels below for proof). the lobster seafood chowder was a favourite (the best ever, according to my mom). i would highly recommend eating here! we’ll definitely be back in the future :)

Very friendly service and a nice quaint feel to the restaurant. A bus tour came in while we were having dinner so it got quite busy but this did not affect our service at all. The lobster meal was delicious and came with salad, muscles, corn, and lobster for a very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for a lobster dinner!

Seafood platter was absolutely perfect. My daughter got the angus burger and said it was one of the best burgers she’s ever had. Highly recommend!
