Cabbage Island Clam Bake Island

It's one of the best excursions I've ever been on.
Wayne and Bob got around and spoke to all, as others grilled an incredible lobster/clam feast. And to top it off, it was on a beautiful island after a boat trip that allowed us to see seals, gorgeous houses, and a rocky coast meant for Norman Rockwell paintings. I'd highly recommend this trip and look forward to doing it again.

Cabbage Island Clam Bake was a great experience! My dad has been going for years and finally brought us along for the ride. The boat tour to the island was fun and relaxing with some interesting facts about the area on the way. As we pulled in you could see the staff cooking a feast on the shoreline. There was a small hiccup with table reservations but things happen. We ended up eating an incredible feast with great views of the water topped off with a nice sunset and the best blueberry cake desert thing I've ever had. The staff and owners were super friendly and accomodating as well as the many cats that roam the island. After dinner we walked off some weight with some exploring around the island. What a beautiful place! Wish we could stay longer. Altogether it was a great time and memories were made. We will definitely be back!

The booking had to be done about 3 months in advance to secure the timing and the date .Food was simple but delicious 😋. The lobsters come in one softshell and one hardahell. Please bring cash. Tea, coffee and water are served free of charge. But of you like cocktails or soda they have it on the island. It was a unique experience. I'd definitely go another time.

Wonderful experience and food! The boat ride tour through the harbor was interesting! Once we arrived, we found a seat and then we had a great server who took our drink orders and soon after brought fish chowder. Then, the horn blew and it was time to get our lunch. The line seems long but it moves so fast! They are experts at this and it is really remarkable. Lunch included 2 whole soft shell lobsters, steamers (whole belly clams) corn on the cob, a potato, a hard boiled egg, an onion and clarified butter. Water, and tea were included with the meal. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. The lobster was tender and not cooked until rubber! After we ate, a piece of blueberry cake was brought to us and it was divine! Perfect day spend on the coast of Maine. FYI: Everything is cash only; which includes a bar on the boat, and drinks and anything in the gift shop (also don’t forget to tip your server) so bring some cash on your trip.

Despite the gloomy weather, we had a wonderful time. Great staff, beautiful scenery and great food. Would recommend for families and couples.

An amazing experience, start to finish. The Bennie Alice is the boat that took us over to Cabbage Island. We enjoyed the 30-45 minute ride, despite the cloudy, drizzly day.
The meal on the island is served so efficiently. The family is very sweet and accommodating.
It started with a scrumptious bowl of clam chowder, which I would usually pass on. I am so glad I didn't. So tasty!
When the dinner bell rings, you walk a short distance to where they were steaming the food. Included was a dozen steamed clams, 2 whole lobsters (Yes, 2 lobsters per person!), corn on the cob, a potato, and onion and a hard boiled egg. That's included because the family actually uses them as a timer! (Egg timer) Of course a nice serving of drawn butter was provided to slop the lobster and clams through. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted fabulous! Water, coffee and tea was included. Beer, cocktails, wine and soda was available to purchase. My entire experience cost $79.50. My husband and I would definitely do it again.

An all-around great experience. The food the atmosphere at the hospitality. I will go again and I will recommend this to friends.

Went to cabbage island today ,it was absolutely excellent . Twin lobsters , steamed clams ,corn on the cob ,boiled egg. ,clam chowder, baked onion, blueberry cake, and all the coffee and tea you can drink . For a price they have mixed acohol drinks and beer. A great ride on a ship to cabbage island with sight seeing and a little history of Boothbay harbor town, the out islands all seem to have very diverse and interesting historys. Thrown in for your pleasure. Very interesting. You'll arrive to the island and disembark to be take

What a fantastic time! The food was excellent! The restaurant is the only thing on the small island. You need to take a boat ride out, and during the trip they show you a couple of the lighthouses in the area.

This was an experience worth every penny, every second, and every step. Got to enjoy an amazing boat ride; full of sights and glorious views. A quaint island, with an oh so humble setting, plenty of activities, and a small secret trail to the edge of the cove and eagle nests! Don't even get me started on the lobster and clam; set out with plenty of sides and all the butter you need. Don't skip this amazing treat!

Great way to spend the afternoon! Crew and food was awesome! The cake was amazing! Only thing that could have made it better was better weather. I'll definitely be coming back!!

We had such an amazing time!! This is our second time going to Cabbage Island for their clam bake and it was just as great as the first. The food is delicious and everyone is so friendly!! Definitely a must if you're ever in Boothbay Harbor!

Great food, great people, great experience. Love every moment. Highly recommended.

It's an experience!
Be open minded primitive speaking.
It's a family owned island 🏝. The family no only cook for us but they stayed with us until boarding... 💞⛵💃🌞

My wife, daughter and I had a great time at the Cabbage Island Clambake. Definitely add it to your list of things to do in Maine. The boat ride was informative and humorous (thanks, Captain Phil) and the food was delicious. You get plenty of food so make sure to bring your appetite!

Not only was the food delicious (i got chicken but was informed the lobster was some of the best my family ever had, and hot dogs were offered for kids if the rather have that) but the people were great! They checked up on us every so often to make sure we had everything we needed and when my sister scraped her leg on a rock the bartender and part owner of the island patched her up and gave her a free shirley temple to make her feel better. The boat ride was also beautiful and the captain told us about most of the islands we passed and would slow down so we could take photos. For the price you got a boat ride, a very large and nice lunch, blueberry cake, and the ability to either explore a beautiful island or play games before the trip back. Overall it was very worth it to me and i look forward to going back

This was such an awesome cruise! Our group had an amazing time & the food was excellent. Best bang for your buck'$

We booked this tour because my cousin saw a video of it on Tik Tok and it did not disappoint. This was a super fun way to spend an afternoon. All the food was super fresh. Once the food is ready they do a great job of getting it out to everyone quickly. Save room for the blueberry cake at the end. It was amazing!! I wish we were there just an hour longer so we had time to explore the island more. But it was definitely a fun day out with family of all ages.

Awesome hospitality, good food, met great people. Boat ride was fun, saw a few dolphins

Excellent adventure. Food was excellent and more than most people can eat, staff provides containers for leftovers. Staff was professional, respectful and truly cared about meeting your needs and wishes. The boat ride was very informative about Boothbay Harbor history with interesting facts about the area. Cabbage Island Clam Bake is a MUST DO when visiting Boothbay. A true taste of Maine and all it has to offer.
