Both halves of a Maine summer.
Lobster dinners on one side, two dozen soft-serve flavors on the other. One family-run takeout window in Bass Harbor.
Lobster off the boat
Whole steamed Maine lobster with corn, butter and coleslaw. Lobster rolls hand-picked, served hot buttered or cold with mayo. Haddock, whole-belly clams, scallops and chowder out of the fryer and kettle.
Pure roadside takeout: order at the window, carry your tray to a picnic table under the tent.
“The food was GREAT! Had flavor, cooked good, nice people.”

Soft serve off the swirl
About two dozen soft-serve flavors in rotation, Dragon's Blood to tiramisu, plus classic Maine hard serve in cones and cups.
The house stunt is the Ice Cream Nachos: waffle-cone chips buried under soft serve, hot fudge, brownie chunks and candy.
And homemade wild Maine blueberry pie, with a crust one reviewer called perfect and flaky.
“The homemade blueberry pie is ABSOLUTELY mouthwatering delicious!!!”
