Rode my Bike into Pier Village around 1pm on the 4th of July. I ordered a take out: a classic lobster roll and French fries, order # 63. They called the number and handed me the bag, all wrapped up, I bicycled a mile and a half back to my house to enjoy it. Ha, I should have checked the bag in the store, they only put the French fries in the bag, the jokes on me, I can't go back because its closed off to cars now. Thanks for nothing, very disappointing. Follow up, I came back the next day. Management stepped up big time and made everything right! They doubled my order and gave an extra coupon for a 3rd Lobster sandwich, which are delicious! Thank you Mason's lobster for going above and beyond to correct an error on what was a very busy day! read more

Genuinely the worst experience I've had. Firstly, You have to order standing up, to follow, the prices are $25+ for a mid tier at best single liner roll, with SHELLS inside. Then they have the audacity to ask for a tip? Ambiance is artificial, fast casual, would never return to any masons location ever. Come here if you'd like to waste $100+ on two people to not be satiated. read more

Came across this place while visiting long branch beach. They have great service. Lots of seating space. Went out of season so parking was easy. Got the warm lobster roll and it was delicious. Glad it was suggested by the person taking my order. Got to eat right there and a bonus for me was the music playing. Will definitely be coming back in the summer. read more

Yes, it might be a little pricey but the lobster salad roll is delicious with a nice toasted split roll/bun. Yes, it was gone in just a few bites. But yes, I'd say it's still worth it! Convenient walking-distance from the beach, easy ordering, and even came with a pickle on the side, to my surprise at the bottom of the bag. read more

Mason's Famous Lobster Rolls - *Lobster Salad Roll - Seafood Near Me - Long Branch, New Jersey

Clean and casual lobster roll spot in Long Branch. We LOVED the lobster roll and paid the upcharge to get even more lobster meat on it (100% worth it). The fries were salty and good. The lobster bisque was out of this world (again, we paid to add on extra lobster) - highly recommend! Our only criticism was the clam chowder, it was very thin (not thick like it should be). Nice staff...we'll be back. read more

It was good, but was it famous? I'm not too sure. It was very expensive. The shrimp roll was very strange. It was just six large shrimp in a bun. Not what we expected. I got the lobster on top of a salad, which was good, but I would've preferred the lobster to be mixed with mayonnaise, like a lobster salad. The lobster bisque soup was just OK and I would not order it again. The service was fast but they weren't too friendly. We ate outside and it was a nice atmosphere watching people. read more

We ordered our food through doordash it had buy 1 get 1 free crab roll for $20. We have never been here before. The crab roll was packed with crab meat and the bread roll itself was soo good but it definitely needs seasoning it's very bland. Got the new england clam chowder soup as well. Their packaging like the bag, and food holders were all so pretty; the aesthetics look really nice. read more

Visiting Long Branch NJ means going to the ocean and taking in the beauty and sounds of the Atlantic Ocean crashing on the shore ... where else should you enjoy the fresh taste of a perfectly prepared lobster roll ... the bread is buttered and toasted to perfection and the lobster juicy and a good portion ... for just $4 extra you can get a loaded lobster roll including the tail ... OMG ... I went there twice ... soooo good ... also clam chowder was excellent! read more

I had high hopes but the lobster rolls are very overpriced for what they are. They were average taste wise but very small and didn't come with sides. I have had many lobster rolls so when comparing this to my other experiences it just really didn't stand out or feel like it was worth the price tag. Service was fine and the location was clean but I probably won't get another lobster roll here. read more

Not my 1st time at a Mason's been to several locations but for some reason no one has topped the location in the Mall of America in Minnesota. Service here was not the greatest and the lobster roll was mediocre read more

WOW!! So delicious and such a good price for a perfect lobster roll. My 16 person family decided last minute that we all wanted lobster rolls. We ordered online with Mason's and within 15 minutes we had our food. The person making the rolls was the nicest service person I've encountered in a long time. Everyone was impressed with their food. Can't wait to come back! 10 out of 10! read more

The classic lobster roll is delicious. The bread is very buttery. Each roll comes with a pickle. Fast service.

Value!!! $22 for an all claw meat lobster roll!! Perfectly toasted roll, got mine hot with butter...excellent. I ate here two nights in a row, ordered the same thing and it was consistently amazing. I would have paid nearly double for this Maine lobster roll. So why not 5 star? Lobster tastes like it's from frozen...May not be, but that's how it tastes to me. Service was great and cool vibe. read more

Delicious lobster rolls! I had the Connecticut and my husband had the Classic. Both had a lot of lobster meat!! We both had the clam chowder and is was flavorful with plenty of clams and was a good thickness! Great service! Clean! read more

5 Stars A Memorable Treat from Mason's Famous Lobster Rolls! I got Mason's Famous Lobster Rolls for my son, and he absolutely loved it! He had the Bar Harbor roll--packed with extra lobster--and couldn't stop raving about how fresh and flavorful it was. We also got the Lobster Bisque, and it was rich, creamy, and full of real lobster chunks--definitely not your average bisque. Everything tasted authentic and high quality, like it came straight from the coast of Maine. It made for a special and satisfying meal, and we'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend for seafood lovers! read more

The lobster in the lobster roll was literally inedible. They gave a refund, but it still ruined the day. We tossed the rest of the food, just in case. Maybe stick to going only "in season." read more

Lobster bisque not as pictured. Shows pieces of lobster floating on top. No lobster pieces at all. Everything ground up. Crab roll was like a glorified tuna salad. Didn't even taste like crabmeat. There was so much mayonnaise that the "crab" got lost. The lobster roll was good. For the price, I was not impressed and I was actually embarrassed as I took this meal home after I heard great things about this place. Probably will not go back as I thought my $80 check for the meal was not worth the hype. read more

This place was fantastic. I placed an online order to go and it asked if I wanted pickles. Confused if they were going in the food, I selected no to all of them but the last with a little note that if they're on the side I'd like them with all of them. I got Three Bar Harbor Connecticut Lobster Rolls, one as a combo with a cup of Lobster Bisque with extra meat, A Lobster Grilled Cheese, and a Lobster Mac and Cheese. They gave me six pickle spears (1/4 of a pickle) all individually wrapped in an individual box, they were great! Very good attention to detail, making sure to handle my order with the care that goes beyond. While I did not spend long in the actual place, it was huge and very spacious. Incredibly clean, the staff were smiling, chipper, and very attentive. They got me in and out in under 15 seconds, and I appreciate that as it was incredibly busy outside, and as someone from NY coming for this specifically, at 8:30 at night for a large order placed half an hour before, I think that was great! As for the food, this is where the star was taken from. The lobster rolls were crispy, buttery, and nice, but a bit soft and squishy on the inside. I mostly had the food when I went back home/the next day, but even the bit I had right there was just a little squishy. That was half a star. Mostly a personal gripe, but a gripe none the less. The lobster itself was fantastic, there was enough in there with the extra $6 worth where I could have made two entirely extra sandwiches on the tail and some of the original meat. That's a lot of meat! Well worth $26, very much the beat value lobster roll I've ever seen/had, and I live on Long Island where seafood is customary on the north/south shores! If I ordered two extra rolls (I forgot two) I'd have food enough for two full days! My only gripe (and this was where the other 1/2 star was lost) was that there was one of the white pieces from the claw in the roll, as well as a couple tiny pieces of shell. Small enough that it wouldn't cause a problem to eat, but I feel that this should have been prepared a little more carefully to avoid in the first place. The lobster bisque was delicious! It wasn't overly meaty so every bite had lobster, but at that point it wouldn't be a soup in the first place. The soup itself was very soft, smooth, and velvety, and the taste was great as well. If I could say one change, maybe with the extra meat add one or two more small pieces of lobster, as I feel that wasn't worth the extra $4 for extra meat. I ended up adding some from the rolls and that was fine. Not pictured, the cup was filled to the brim but stayed tightly packed and perfectly encased. The grilled cheese and mac and cheese were eaten today, and I was so hungry I forgot to take a picture. The grilled cheese were two pieces of white bread with a healthy portion of meat and cheese in between. It was buttery, crispy, the meat was soft and the cheese was there in every bite, even after being in the microwave it shined. The pasta was cooked well, there was tons of cheese in it, the lobster was cooked to the same standards as everything else and thrown in at the end, and there was enough of everything to fee worth $15. I feel a lobster roll, a lobster bisque, and either a grilled cheese or mac and cheese would have been a perfect meal. There's plenty of flavor, and together they are very filling. The lobster bisque and the mac and cheese are encased in a strong layer of tin foil, do not spill, and stay warm hours later. I went to the National Harbor one in 2022 and have been dreaming about it since. This was a very fine substitution, and much closer to home. If this chain was in Nassau County Long Island I would go weekly, but this is a fine alternative to Maryland, and I'm very happy it's there. read more

I was a little disappointed. Going down the shore I look forward to having a delicious lobster roll. This however wasn't it. I remember having it last summer and it being pretty good. This time I had it, the lobster was almost rubbery and the fries were terrible. I'm giving 3 stars because the workers were so sweet and kind. The bathroom was also very clean. I know it can get dirty with beach goers but it wasn't which was nice. read more

This place was awesome. The lobster roll and clam chowder was amazing. Would highly recommend this place.

The lobster rolls are good, but when I asked for their 50% larger size, the woman behind the counter kept on insisting that there was only one size. Presuming she knew what she was talking about, I had the regular size. But later I showed her the website, which indicated that there was fact, a larger size, called the Bar Harbor. Not a major complaint, but clearly there was a language barrier. read more

We went today for lunch pros: fair prices/nice decor/clean con: taste-you need to add more mayo and lemon on the L ROLLS as I did not taste any/please ask customers "how was everything" while they are there or at least when they walk out the door. I could have given good feedback We will go back read more

Have to give a 10/10 for the Lobster Bisques it was filled with flavor in every bite. I went for the extra charge on lobster meat and was blessed with two tails and plenty of lobster meat. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area not long of a wait either! read more

I know lobster is expensive but $30 for a roll and a coke and it's small is ridiculous. No chance they stay open

This place is trash. Don't even try the lobster Mac. It's gross, tasteless goop. Not worth your time or money

Loved the lobster roll. Delicious , fast service, friendly staff. Not overly priced. Casual place

Excellent lobster roll. I ordered the Connecticut roll w extra lobster and it was delicious. The extra lobster is well worth $6. Roll is soft and fresh. Very clean, good service. read more

Over rated and very expensive. Cousins lobster much better. Very soggy bread. They don't give you much lobster in the roll.

Before I start this review, I will say the workers were super nice. On the other hand, this place is absolute highway robbery!! Spending 20 bucks on a sandwich and Mac n cheese for me to get limited lobster and to still be starving is insane. This place better get a grip of how to feed their customers or they will go out of business within the year :) read more

Fantastic! Like a grill cheese style thick buttered bun with loads of lobster in between. Tons of options plus mac and cheese lobster. So many options to choose from. Service was great, fast, and what a fun new place at the beach! And nice touch with the chargers and USB ports everywhere to charge on the go. read more
