With all of our beautiful coastline and abundance of natural areas, Maine is like a big playground with so many places to bring the kids to let them blow off steam. However, finding a place to eat that is more family-friendly can sometimes be a challenge. Thankfully, we’ve got you covered! Bring the kids over to The Lobster Shack at Two Lights, which has a natural playground for the kids.
Hidden down a short dirt road right on the rugged coastline of Cape Elizabeth near Two Lights State Park is one of the best family-friendly restaurants in the state. A humble little lobster shack that’s huge on flavor and family fun, the extensive seafood menu has tons of options for even the pickiest eaters.
With tons of outdoor seating, you’ll be right next to rocky, step-like cliffs where kids and kids at heart can scramble about near the surf. There’s so much area to play on and they’ll have a blast.
When the food comes out, reel the kids in because you’ll want to keep your eyes as well as your taste buds on the delectable lobster, which is a feast for the senses and won’t break the bank!
The selection of meals, sides, and desserts is sure to satisfy and if you don’t want to do the work of picking through a lobster, the lobster rolls are much easier and are simply mouthwatering. There are even burgers for those who may not be into seafood.
If the weather outside isn’t suitable for playing on the rocks, there’s indoor seating and the kids will love the fishing decor with antiques and whimsical signs, lights, and more. The rustic wood interior makes it a comfortable family space.
Even if you don’t play around on the rocks, it’s a gorgeous place to simply sit and gaze out at the ocean and let the sounds of the surf soothe you. The sound of the waves and your children’s joyous laughter will make for a wonderful day.
Your experience here will leave you with full bellies and hearts and you’ll want to come back again and again to savor the scrumptious menu, the views of the rocks, ocean, and nearby lighthouse, and the memories of a truly fun family day.
