During a recent road trip, we pulled off the highway into the charming coastal town of Wells, Maine — a beautiful little gem with great food, friendly faces and deep history. Founded circa 1643 and incorporated in 1653, Wells is one of Maine’s oldest towns. Once a frontier settlement, then a ship‑building, farming, and fishing community, it transformed into a summer resort hot spot with rail and road access over the centuries. Today it balances heritage and tourism in a way that still feels genuine.
A Two‑Foot Lobster Roll in Wells, Maine: East Coast Foodie Travel
While there, we discovered Bull & Claw — a steakhouse and seafood experience rolled into one — and what caught our eye? The monster of all lobster rolls: the “Lobster Lover’s Lust” — two feet long, packed with fresh Maine lobster, served while we sipped Halloween‑themed cocktails and soaked in the sea‑air town vibe. The flavor hit just right, the portions were massive, and for a late‑travel lunch it carried me for hours.
Bull & Claw’s menu dives deep: from broiled lobster, maple pork chops, surf‑n‑turf plates, generous salad/soup bars to crowd‑pleasers like prime rib and fresh fried seafood. Guests consistently highlight the “country vibe” and hearty seafood offerings. One reviewer said: “This is a local staple … the entrée comes with the soup and salad bar (which looks like a boat).”
If you’re visiting Maine—or just love an unforgettable meal—plan a stop at Bull & Claw in Wells. Get the two‑foot lobster roll, chat with the staff, and enjoy the coastal charm. You’ll be full, happy, and reminiscing about it long after. Can’t wait to go back. 🦞
