Husband and I finally returned to Booth Bay, Me after probably 5 years, I must say when you snooze, you loose! I love this area and it didn’t take long to realize it. Won’t happen again! I do remember eating at Karen’s Hideaway and upon arriving at our Campground, we made a bee line the next day for an early dinner. Karen and her husband are the most nicest and kind people!! Hub and I both got large Lobster Rolls, each one with 1/2 pound of meat nestled in a buttered, toasted hot dog bun. Hub had his with light mayo, I had mine naked with drawn butter. We both had her delicious potato salad made with bacon and cheese. Very good hot fries as well. That Lobster was so perfectly cooked and so tender. We both were in Hog Heaven!! We had very little conversation because are mouths were full of lobster goodness. It was fantastic! We got a tour of the live Lobster tanks, Karen’s husband Garry even posed with two lobsters for me, he has the great gift of gab, lucky me! Other than Lobster and Crab rolls, you can get Hamburgers and Hot dogs and dinners. A great road side place to eat, many picnic tables with umbrellas to eat your food. Save yourself the aggravation of going downtown trying to find a parking spot, just pull up and plenty of parking and enjoy the fresh air and a Delish, fresh Lobster or Crab roll. Must try Karen’s, Debbie and Bob, Mich 🦞🦀🌭🍔

Friendly little lobster shack on the side of the road that offers non-seafood options for those in the group that aren't interested in lobster, scallops, clams, fish and other tasty goodies.

We got the fried seafood combo, and it was huge!!! We left way too full, but also very happy. Highly recommended!

This is the place to scratch your lobster itch. True, you can't drive through Midcoast Maine without tripping over dozens of these shacks, but if you find yourself on Rt 27 near Boothbay Harbor, skip everyone else and come here. A quick 10 minute drive from more popular spots in town, you'll avoid the long lines at other places and get (in my opinion) a superior lobster roll. Friendly folks, and it feels like you're just hanging out in Karen's back yard. Get a live lobster packed to go next door. 100% Maine.

Fish was very tasty and fried perfectly. Lady helping was very nice. Only wished they made their own tartar sauce.

Our first lobster rolls in Maine and we were not disappointed. Lots of meat, great toasted bun and served with a pineapple coleslaw that was great. Also got the French fries which were nice
And hot. Great overall experience.

Amazing food! Fresh, hot, and large amount. You must try the homemade coleslaw! Added bonus...they cook in Canola oil.

The best cheeseburger in Maine! The lobster roll was great with a side of potato salad… and those fries! We showed up 10 minutes before closing (we didn’t notice) and they were still so nice!

The owners are wonderful. She catches her own crab daily. The lobster and crab rolls were absolutely delicious and reasonably priced. This is a must stop and try.

Great roadside stand. Lobster rolls were perfect/ classic. Picnic tables outside.
The staff was very accommodating to a special request to have the meat and rolls separate for eating at a later date. Prices were good. We have returned many times.

So delicious and unique options! Cash or check only, but totally worth the drive to the nearest ATM.

The place is a nice little hideaway, with GREAT customer service. She was SUPER nice, its not a cheap food place, but the atmosphere, service, and food are worth the extra few bucks. Great menu selection. ill go there again and again everytime I'm in the area. Id love to have a place like this closer to home.

Don't let appearances deceive you! This was one of my and my husband's favorite stops during our stay. We were surprised by some of the most fair prices for lobster and crab rolls with quality that could not be beat, plus generous servings. I was also impressed by their sides. Sometimes, restaurants throw in potato salad, cole slaw etc. in as a side and it's mediocre - not Karen's. I LOVED their potato salad. I hope to come back next year and have another crab roll :)

Worth a stop on the way to Boothbay, for the lobster rolls or anything else. Great hotdogs and apparently has one awards for their hamburgers. Seats in the backyard, just bring the bug spray - even during the day.

Great seafood, great service and atmosphere is picnic tables. Many do take out. Can also get lobsters and have them cooked. Been going here for many many years.

Worth the stop. Great prices and excellent quality. Do not change a thing. Almost afraid to post a review. I kind of want it to be a secret but I also want her and her family to thrive. Get the haddock club sandwich and the naked lobster roll.

Great little hidden spot. Generous portions of lobster in their lobster roll and crab in their crab roll. It's exactly the kind of roadside spot you think of when you think of Maine.

OH......MY.....GOD!!!!! My husband got the lobster roll meal and he ate that roll with his eyes shut and enjoyed EACH......AND.....EVERY.....BITE!!! I am super picky and I got the steak bomb meal. It was fantastic and I didn't even have to add salt to give it flavor like I usually do. Ok.....now the potato salad. I just started liking potato salad and the chef said she makes hers REAL GOOD. Now usually I have to pick through the gross chunky stuff like celery and would eat just the potatoes. Well this potato salad is soooooo good I actually got to scoop up a fork full without and eat it without having to pain stakingly pick out the stuff I don't like. WHAT A FANTASTIC PLACE TO EAT!!!
Update: 15 minutes later he went back for the crab roll. He says it is all the best he has EVER had!!!!

Such an amazing place to eat seafood. Big portions that won't empty the wallet. So easy to get to, on the way into Boothbay Harbor with plenty of parking. And the owners have Lobster tanks right there, so you can grab dinner to go. You will NOT be disappointed!

Tiny little shack that you will almost pass by but you will be sad if you do. All I can review is the lobster roll, but really that is what a lot of us are out to eat. I have had lobster rolls from all over Maine and this is one of my absolute favorites! In my opinion, better than Red's. Sure it's not as big, but full of flavor, perfectly cooked and just what you are looking for in a lobster roll. You can get it regular with mayo or you can have it with drawn butter. Friendly staff and a little diamond in the rough.
