Lobster At Its Best
At Chatham Pier Fish Market, we believe the best way to enjoy a lobster roll is exactly how you like it. We offer two definitive preparations that celebrate the catch without overcomplicating it.
The Classic New England: Chilled, succulent lobster meat with just a light touch of mayo, a refreshing, iconic Cape Cod experience.
The Warm Buttered Roll: Tender, sweet lobster meat gently tossed in butter for a rich, savory experience.
Whether you’re a purist or looking for something more decadent, the lobster roll is the definitive taste of a Cape Cod summer.
Two Paths To The Perfect Lobster Roll
Boat-To-Counter Freshness You Can Taste
The secret to a world-class lobster roll isn’t just in the preparation—it’s in the provenance. Because we sit directly on the Chatham Fish Pier, "fresh" isn't a marketing tagline—it’s our physical reality. We take immense pride in our partnership with the local fishing fleet, ensuring our lobster moves straight from the boat to our market.
By maintaining the integrity of our catch in our on-site saltwater wells, we provide a level of sweetness and a tender, buttery texture that alternatives simply cannot replicate. When you enjoy our lobster rolls, you are supporting a local maritime tradition and enjoying the absolute freshest catch Cape Cod has to offer.
The Integrity Of The Catch
We operate with a "meat-first" philosophy. We don’t use heavy fillers, distracting ingredients, or unnecessary spices because when the seafood is this fresh, it speaks for itself. The catch we’re proud to sell at our market counter is the same market-grade seafood we serve in our kitchen. Every roll starts with lobster that has been handled right from the second it hits the dock, ensuring you get an authentic taste of Chatham in every single mouthful.
Opening for the season on April 15th!
See you soon!
"Can't get fish any more fresh than this place. Right from the dock in front to your plate for takeout!"
Our Cook & Crack Lobster service makes it easy to enjoy fresh steamed lobster without the work – whether you’re eating on the pier, heading to the beach, or bringing lobster home for a cookout. We steam (never boil) your lobster and keep it fully intact, then crack the claws and split the tail so it’s ready to eat with no mess. It’s complimentary, seamless, and the closest thing to dock-to-table lobster you’ll find on Cape Cod.
