FIVE ISLANDS LOBSTER CO. Five Islands Lobster Co. - Marcopolis

Unfortunately, like many other restaurants and small businesses, we are struggling to staff our restaurant this year.

Because of this, and in hopes of not burning out the staff we do have, we have decided to limit our hours as needed.

Monday: Fry shack/Love Nest open 11:30-3:00

Lobster building (the red building) open 11:30-8:00

From 3:00-8:00 we will be serving:

Lobster rolls

Steamed lobster

Steamed clams

Corn

Potatoes

Cole slaw

Haddock chowder

Tuesday: Lobster building 11:30-8:00

Fry shack closed

Wednesday: Closed

Thursday: Fully Open 11:30-8:00

Friday: Fully Open 11:30-8:00

Saturday: Fully Open 11:30-8:00

Sunday: Fully Open 11:30-8:00

Additionally, we will be unable to make and serve our homemade onion rings for the remainder of the season.

This decision was not made lightly and is not what we would choose but there is no other choice. Please be patient while we work through these issues.

Five Islands Lobster Co. is perched on an active fishing wharf, on the edge of Sheepscot Bay, surrounded by some of the coldest and deepest waters on the coast. Locals here know these waters produce the most delicious and sought-after lobsters to be found anywhere. Nestled in the fishing village islands of Georgetown, also known as "the prettiest harbor in Maine", Five Islands Lobster Co. stands out in a sea of dining options with the perfect combination of exceptional food and classic Maine atmosphere.

Our "Love Nest" grill serves casual fare including fried seafood baskets, grilled sandwiches and our renowned onion rings. The "Lobster" building offers live or cooked lobsters, steamers, and daily specials like mussels, along with corn on the cob and potatoes and coleslaw. And the "Ice Cream Building" proudly scoops up a wide variety of Annabelle's Ice Cream.

Our food could not be any fresher.

Lobsters are pulled straight from the surrounding waters and are never "tanked-stored". Our fried selections like haddock, shrimp, scallops and onion rings are hand-breaded, and Downeast Magazine says we have the "Best Fried Clams in Maine". Stock pots simmer house-made soups in the kitchen. Even our sauces are made here with our own recipes. Why would we top our dishes with anything else? Tartar Sauce with fresh dill and capers, Cilantro Mayo with a kick of jalapeno and lime, and Mustard Dill spread to name a few.

Not looking for seafood?

Of course we put just as much care in preparation and attention to ingredients into the rest of our menu, which includes burgers, hot dogs, chicken tenders, grilled cheese, and what many customers say is "the best steak-and-cheese sandwich around"!

Dining at Five Islands Lobster Co. is easy and casual.

Bring a cooler (we don't serve alcohol), some friends and sit back and enjoy your meal with the low rumble of the lobster boats pulling away from the dock, buoys swaying on the open sea and the distant sound of seagulls in the air. This is dinner in Maine.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu

Catching Dory: selling aquarium fish supports coastal livelihoods in Indonesia | npj Ocean Sustainability - Nature.com

Abstract The global marine aquarium trade has created new local markets across the planet, including in Indonesia, now the second-largest exporting country of marine aquarium fish in the world. Participating in the global aquarium trade has been touted as a potentially sustainable addition to fisher livelihoods, but scant data exist showing the numbers of fish coming off the reef and how those fish contribute to income. To determine how participants in the trade incorporate aquarium species in their livelihoods, we examine source-level aquarium fish collecting and trading data in the Banggai Archipelago, a region in Central Sulawesi that has become a significant source for popular aquarium, also known as ornamental, fish species. Using a sustainable livelihoods lens, we examine this data to understand how participants in the aquarium trade both contribute to as well as benefit from the trade and consider how their participation relates to emerging Blue Justice principles.
