We are closed for the season 2025!

Unfortunately, on December 21st,

we experienced one of the most devastating events we could have ever imagined:

Fire.

The fire was immense.

Engines and crews from five firehouses, alongside Jon, battled the blaze.

The next day, there was hope.

Most of the Oarweed stood strong.

But ultimately, it wasn’t enough.

A new building is now underway.

This is our phoenix story.

 

Oarweed returns — reopening April 2026.

 

We will try to stay in touch via social media.

FRESH LOBSTER

Boiled Maine Lobster is our first and foremost menu item. With four giant tanks filled with cold ocean water straight from the Atlantic, we are truly a classic lobster pound. OARWEED lobster is simply perfect. Everyday we serve the best of Maine with sweet drawn butter.

NEW ENGLAND CHOWDER

Chowder is New England and our two chowders are grand. Our seafood chowder has a broth that is creamy, sweet and buttery with lobster, haddock, shrimp and clams. The clam chowder is classic and thick; a true pleaser. We serve that hot in a cup or bowl and “to go” in pint and quart.

RUM PUNCH

It wouldn’t be summer without an Oarweed Rum Punch, this being our favorite treat. The rum punch is heavy on the pineapple and light on the grapefruit but really bottomed and topped by rum. The dark rum floater is a “vacation” capper.
