“The Story Beneath the Shell”

Nestled along the scenic shores of Lake Ontario, Olcott Lobster Co. was founded with one mission in mind: to bring the taste of the coast to the heart of Western New York. As a locally owned and operated gem, we pride ourselves on serving up fresh, crave-worthy seafood favorites, mouthwatering sides, and kid-friendly bites in a relaxed, family-first atmosphere. Whether you're grabbing a lobster roll to go, sipping a slushie on our open patio, or treating the little ones to cheeseburgers and chicken fingers, Olcott Lobster Co. is your go-to destination for good food, good times, and lakeside charm. Drop anchor and dine with us!

“Shell Yeah, Here's What You Need to Know”

“Helpful info to make your visit smooth sailing.”

Olcott Lobster Co. is open Wednesday and Thursday from 3–7 PM, Friday and Saturday from 12–7 PM, and Sunday from 12–6 PM. We’re closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, including Labor Day. Our official opening day will be May 15th, 2026. Most guests can expect to spend about $30 per person on average. For those with dietary needs, we do offer gluten-free rolls for a $2.50 upcharge, and any sandwich can be made breadless with a lettuce wrap. While we don’t typically accept reservations, we’re happy to try to accommodate groups of 8 or more with advance notice. We do our best to keep lobster in stock, but we occasionally run out after 4 PM on Sundays—if that happens, we always post updates on Facebook. Please note, we offer outdoor seating only, and while we love live music, our live acts end after Labor Day weekend.

Customer Reviews

Absolutely amazing! The lobster roll flight was beyond delicious 😋 And the lobster grilled cheese hit the spot! It was more than worth the wait and the 1.5 hour drive to have lobster as wonderful as this!

Best lobster rolls around. Such a variety of different rolls and the freshest lobster, you really feel like you are somewhere in Maine eating fresh lobster. Great service, great place, I already can’t wait to go again!

Rachel B.

Delicious! I don’t eat much seafood but I have brought my family here several times, everyone loves the Connecticut roll and the house made chips, especially the kids! Don’t forget the Popeyes chicken sandwich!

Jessica R.

We loved it here! Food was great and everyone was super nice. My daughter has allergies too and they were really great about checking to make sure everything was cooked properly and separately.

If you haven’t tried the Olcott Lobster Company yet, I highly recommend a trip there! The food was delicious, the service was excellent, & you can’t beat the atmosphere! Definitely worth the trip!

My wife and I are huge lobster roll lovers so you can imagine our excitement when we heard about this place! We went on a Wednesday evening and it did not disappoint! We got the New England rolls and a side of Greek orzo and were blown away with the portion size 😍! We will be returning again and again trying all the other things on the menu!
