"Well worth stopping at the Yodeling Clam Lobster Pound. Brenda was fun and welcoming. We were driving through town while visiting from Chicago. She cooked our lobsters after explaining the differences between soft shell and hard shells. This was my first time eating a fresh lobster and now I'm hooked! As recommended by Brenda, we took our lobsters to a local park and enjoyed ever bite!"

"Great take out lobster and clams. Just as good, the conversation with Brenda, while our seafood was steaming. Such a nice lady. She cracks the lobster shell with a wooden contraption her husband made her. First class"
