History

Dorothy Pye was never the type of person to sit and do nothing.  That’s why, when her children had grown and left the house, she needed something to occupy her time.
In 1964, Dot started baking pies for the local restaurants and campgrounds.  She named them Mrs. Pye’s Pies.  These freshly made fruit pies were a big hit by everyone that heard of them.  Soon, she was busier than ever making and delivering them every day.  After a while she decided to build a small building beside her house and sell them from there.  She soon added lobster rolls and beverages to her menu and placed a few tables along the shore for people to sit and enjoy.  The funny thing was that no one cared to sit at these tables.  After a short while she commented to a customer “There are tables by the shore, wouldn’t you like to go and sit by the water?”  He replied that he was in the area camping and didn’t care to sit outside.  Next, she set six small tables up inside.  Immediately they were full with folks waiting outside for a seat.  Since then several more renovations have been done to accommodate her loyal customers.  She expanded her menu with freshly breaded & fried seafood, specialty seafood casseroles, and many secret recipes such as her famous lobster stew and clam chowder.  She hired a wait staff and cooks and dished out the areas best and freshest seafood around.  For the past forty years, it has been a long standing tradition for seasonal residents, vacationing campers, and friendly locals to frequent The Lobster House restaurant to come and experience a taste of Dot’s delicious entrees and irresistible desserts.
In the summer of 2004, Dot gave Dawn (her granddaughter) and I (Dawn's husband) the opportunity to manage this wonderful restaurant.  It is our goal to continue this great tradition and serve up the areas best and freshest seafood.
