Year-Round Warren’s Lobster House In Maine Has Been Serving Up Seafood Since 1940

Maine is the kind of place that tourists visit for the food. Throughout the summer you'll see lines forming in front of lobster shacks and seafood shanties up and down the coast. But what about the rest of the year? What about those of us who put in the time to make it through a Maine winter? Don't we deserve seafood throughout the year? We say yes and this restaurant agrees!

Welcome to Warren's Lobster House in Kittery! Located right on the water, this place is a Maine-lover's dream come true.

You can't miss the sign, which extols all of the wonders that lie inside.

There's a lot to love about this local spot, including the fact that they're open all year. But we also enjoy the cozy feeling of the interior and the nautical decor.

Warren's has been around since 1940, which means that in addition to convenience and ambiance they've certainly perfected the art of Maine seafood. And the views are worth writing home about!

You might know them best from hearing about their absolutely epic salad bar. Look at this thing chock-full of veggies and toppings and sides that you'll want to fill your plate with.

And the seafood meals here are the real deal. Check out this lobster.

And then check out this lobster! Their lobster rolls are overflowing with juicy meaty goodness.

There are a variety of seafood dishes on the menu, ranging from fried to fresh.

And we love that it feels just like a seafood shanty with baskets of things like fried clams and shrimp. The only difference? You can pop in any time you want without being bound by seasons.

We love coming here with friends and family. Especially when the visit includes one of their incredible bloody Mary drinks!

Warren's is a treat to visit and we recommend stopping in throughout the year to see how things change.

Warren's Lobster House is open Sunday through Thursday from 11:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. You can check out the menu on their website and follow them on Facebook for updates.

And if eating seafood at a restaurant isn't enough for you, how about owning your own eatery? A piece of historic Maine seaside dining is for sale and it might be worth the splurge.
