This was a cute spot to stop at on the strip. They have parking and a nice little dining area on the inside. They make fresh lobster rolls, with different flavors. My cousin and I stopped in to spit a sandwich. We got turkey, with bacon, lettuce, tomato and onions on it. It was a big sandwich for two people. They did not skimp out on the meat. We also got an order of fries, which they brought to the table as well. They were good and crispy. read more

Mystic Lobster Roll - Sandwiches Near Me - Ship Bottom, New Jersey

Food was good, portions small, very pricey for the portions. I wouldn't recommend it for dinner. Lunch yes. It was tasty. We spent over $200.00 for 11 people. We ended up making burgers because it wasn't enough for dinner. FYI ticktock videos are fake size. read more

We some how have never been here in all of our years visiting LBI. The lobster rolls are delicious and definitely worth the money. This is however a deli and you can order other food items. There are a few tables to eat and the service was quick. read more

Absolutely the best lobster roll on LBI. I usually get the Connecticut because simple is the best -- drenched in butter without any other additions. The meat was tender and plentiful. The roll was nicely toasted. Do I wish it was slightly bigger? Obviously...because I want more read more

I ordered the Connecticut lobster roll and Hawaiian lobster roll. Neither one filled the small hotdog roll it was in. Embarrassing! I had visitors in town and they laughed. The turkey Reuben was huge, fresh and delicious. The service was timely. We took away. read more

I know the price of a lobster roll in LBI is $30 a roll. But, I got a very small amount of lobster for $30. Sorry, that's a rip off. read more

Food tasted great! Unfortunately we felt the size of the lobster roll was too small for the price we paid. Service was good. Parking can be an issue when busy. Would return just wish the rolls were bigger. read more

I absolutely recommend Mystic for all your lobster roll needs while in LBI. I placed an order from Mystic around 6 PM and my boyfriend went to go pick it up right before they closed. He said everyone was so friendly and that it had died down by the time he got there since they were closing up. we got three lobster rolls to try. One was the surf and turf, one was a Connecticut, and lastly a main lobster roll. All of them were absolutely delicious. I went for the Maine lobster roll even though there were so many tempting other options. I wanted to try a normal roll first to see the quality and it did not disappoint. The huge chunks of fresh lobster tasted so perfect with the buttery potato roll. On their menu they have a huge lobster roll list, some look super fun. I believe they have one other a Chipotle aioli and candied jalepenos! I think that's my next go-to. We also got the lobster bisque and the shrimp and corn chowder to try. The woman recommended warming it up on the stove but you can easily also do it on the microwave. We went for the lobster bisque first and it was absolutely delicious. The shrimp and corn chowder was even better in my opinion. Lots of shrimp and with the perfect amount of heat and sweetness to it. This place is definitely quality ingredients and guarantees freshness. They're right off the main Boulevard and have a nice size parking lot. They are also famous for their breakfast sandwiches which I definitely have to try one day. Their regular sandwich menu is incredibly extensive as well and I want to try out one of those two for the beach one day. All around a very solid lobster roll. I was craving one and this was absolutely delicious. read more

Amazing food, Jim and his staff are top notch great place highly recommended!!! Easy location to navigate.

Went here for dinner on a Sunday night. The restaurant was clean with plenty of seating indoors (a few spots to eat outside!) Went shopping at Farias across the street while we waited for the food- ordered fries, a lobster roll, and two tacos (~$50) that were ready within 10 minutes! The lobster was fresh and buttered generously with a good meat to bread ratio. Chicken tacos were light and satisfying- loaded with avocado and spring lettuce. Bonus points kickin coleslaw & juicy pickles that come with the meals. Looking forward to my next dining experience there read more

Still a fan favorite in our family for lobster rolls on the island. We called in our order, and this was a great way to save some time on waiting! They told us our order of 5 sandwiches would take about 20 minutes. I tried the BLT Lobster Roll today, looking for something more complex in flavor than your standard Maine roll. The bacon/lobster combo was delicious, but I wished there was a bit more lettuce - and I wished the tomato had a bit more flavor to it. Despite those notes, I'd definitely still order it again. Also ordered in our group today, we had some standard Maine rolls, and even a surf & turf roll, all containing the generous portions of lobster served up Mystic Meats style. I've posted their 2022 Season Menu here, I noticed the one on their webpage loads too blurry to read. Hope this is helpful! read more

5/5/20 Driving through town for work, I got the sudden urge for some seafood, especially since I'm near the sea. I called over 10 restaurants only to get no answers. I was giving up and leaving this town, when upon departing, I drive by this location, only to do a u-turn and come back here. Boy! I am beyond thrilled to have came here! I ordered the lobster roll and had the lobster warmed up, as I prefer it warm vs cold. The staff was super friendly and welcoming and even helped me figure out what to order. The food was so delicious! Honestly, it was the BEST lobster roll I've had so far! I would highly recommend ordering the Maine lobster roll with the warm buttery bun. It was so delicious! You won't be disappointed. read more

Awesome Lobster Rolls - would recommend and will go back. We did both the hot buttered and the mayo - both were great - and more options we'd like to try. It doesn't look like much from the outside and it's really mostly take out - so pick some up and take them home. read more

Always good food quality and great service. Lobster rolls are excellent and hoagies are big and full of fresh meats, cheeses and veggies.

Delicious lobster roll, clean market, very friendly staff. It's exactly what you want in a lobster roll, meaty with a nice sweet bun. Would definitely recommend read more

My Connecticut Lobster Roll was a disappointment. The roll wasn't toasted and warm, and the lobster wasn't warmed in melted butter. Last year it was much better. read more

Delicious Connecticut lobster roll. Well proportion. Staff very friendly. Will definitely return

Nice little deli spot for ginormous sandwiches and freshly made lobster rolls. Not the greatest one I've had(sorry Quincys still takes it!) but very tasty and clean lobster flavor!! Worth a visit.... read more

All summer we enjoyed fresh fish from Mystic. Our older boys and friends talked about the subs and said they are the best. Amongst our favorite is the Italian cutlet - chicken cutlets, tomatoes , roasted red pepper & fresh mozzarella with a balsamic glaze. Operated by very nice people & they are open year round, definitely try! read more

Their lobster rolls were okay. It didn't have enough Mayo in them and for the amount you paid it came with small amount of coleslaw and pickle. They should offer side of fries with the roll or more coleslaw. read more

Delicious. Fresh and tasty humongous hoagies. Fair prices. Decor is nonexistent but go for the subs/hoagies!

Their "small" is HUGE! We ordered 4 subs for the 4 of us. And we all couldn't finish. So we ate them later for dinner!! Very tasty, friendly service. Phoned the order in while on the beach and went to go pick up. Great tasting bread, meats, toppings. Would definitely order for beach lunch! read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch and had the lobster rolls. They were freshly prepared and filled with chunks of lobster. The roll was buttery and warm. It was completely satisfying and I would recommend stopping in for them if you're on the island. read more

Great food at this place. However, wish they were better run. Their website says open Sunday until 7. Placed a call before 5. They never answered. I figured they were probably swamped with customers. So I hopped in the car and made the trip from the northern tip of LBI to Ship Bottom. The Open sign in the window was lit. I thought I was in luck! However, the doors were locked and an employee was getting into his car. He closed up early to honor a family commitment. He acknowledged that the phone wasn't answered. I didn't want to be a confrontational jerk so I left quietly, but upset that I made the trip for nothing. If the phone was answered and I was told they were closing early, I might not have liked it, but could live with it. I guess the hours on the website are not accurate. They are just an approximation. Their stuff is good. I will be back. Always liked the people there. I just wish they would answer the phone on Sunday. As a Customer, I felt disrespected and feel this episode won't really matter to them. read more

Very friendly staff and good service but our lobster rolls were disappointing. The bread/ rolls were delicious and the lobster meat was a generous portion, but the meat itself was not very tasty. I know lobster has a mild taste ( we lived in New England for a couple of years).it just didn't taste like it had been freshly steamed. ... The lobster meat texture was good. Cole slaw was great and prices were decent. A nice switch from steaks and pizza but their subs are better. read more

Mystic meat and seafood market has the best surf and turf roll you will ever eat. At first I was a little hesitant with both steak and lobster on the same roll but it works. Huge chunks of lobster meat and no filler at all. Nice tender pieces of steak on a lightly toasted and buttered roll. Well worth the price. FYI its not an eat in restaurant, it's a market with a large selection of specialty foods, and take out sandwiches. Yes, they do take credit cards. read more

We were on LBI for a week vacation and had Mystic Market recommended to us for sandwiches and lobster rolls. Decided to give it a try and it did not disappoint. Received a friendly greeting from the staff as I walked in the door. Decided to go with the lobster roll of which they had a multitude of varieties. I kept it simple and went with Connecticut style, just lobster and melted butter on a roll. They have seating so you can dine in or take out. Decided to have it there. These are made to order and it was ready in a matter of minutes. The lobster roll was excellent, filled with fresh lobster smothered in just the right amount of butter on a perfectly toasted roll! If that wasn't enough, it was served with a tasty pickle spear and coleslaw that was clearly homemade! So good I had to order a 2nd one to bring home for my wife. Would highly recommend this place! Enjoy! read more

Upon entering the establishment I was greeted with a shrug and atmosphere of frustration. The staff seemed annoyed even though they were mildly busy, I felt like I annoyed them with just my presence. The lady made it seem like a huge ordeal to open a new jar of pickles when the menu stated you receive a pickle with your order. NOW LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE PRICE. Over 50$ for two mediocre fishy lobster rolls. I understand it's the island but I mean jeez. So I obviously ordered two separate rolls and the lady working refused to put it in different boxes. I get there a mom and pops run store, but there's a diff between cutting corners and gassing to 60 threw red lights in 4wd. read more

Wow! What happened to this place. Last year we got lobster rolls from the building in Beach Haven. Although we thought it was pricey then, it was enjoyable. Large toasted buttered rolls, mounds of lobster and we were able to ignore what we spent. Now 2022, the only mystic on the island is at the seafood market in Ship Bottom. Although we knew we were going to spend a pretty penny again, we were looking forward to our sandwiches. Wow very different. They now had Martin potato rolls which were like the size of a slider. Not as much lobster either and after two bites it was gone. Very disappointed with the size of the sandwich but the taste was still good. Wish we knew that for $52 and two sandwiches we would still be starving. May not go back again as I feel they need to reconsider the rolls and sandwich size. This time size does matter! read more

Best breakfast sandwiches and cheesesteaks... in NJ let alone the island. I really haven't had anything bad from here. The sangwiches rival the best in Brooklyn. Run, don't walk and get yourself a Jersey Devil. read more

Fantastic lobster rolls! They even have gluten free rolls, which made it worth the walk for the gluten free members of our family, who normally can't get lobster rolls in most places. LBI roll & Hawaiian rolls were fabulous. We went at lunchtime and had very little wait, sat inside at the table to eat. Very cute place, owner was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back to try more of their specialty rolls! read more

Just went for hotdogs,They we're great. I seen meatballs and said these would be nice to go with pasta. I bought 4 of the worst meatballs ever. They were worse than grocery store by a far cry. For 9 bucks a lb they should be great. They should add a ? mark to their sign. Took one bite each and spat them out. read more

Get the Roast Beef hero (Hogie). Huge!! definitely enough for 2 BIG eaters. Quality was top notch..Bread not the crunchy type, soft and held sandwich together . Price reasonable,slightly high, only because you can feed 3 people. read more

The staff was lovely, friendly and efficient. The prices are fair and the food quality is excellent.

This place is a dirty joke. I appreciate that other reviewers gave good marks based on novelty of the menu items and Mystic Market being open early season. However there is no getting around how dirty and disheveled the store is. While I smiled at the concoction that was the meatball sandwich, I'd have to agree with an earlier review - it's utterly un-eatable. I also ordered the "Roasted Vegetable" sub, it was a joke. $12 sub with lettuce, tomato, and mushrooms and peppers out of a jar. Total joke. The final note I'll make is that the staff weren't taking precautions for keeping their workspace clean or orders safe. The people preparing food weren't wearing masks properly, and the other employees weren't wearing masks. While my order was being made a friend of the cook came into the store, leaned over the sneeze screen and started hollering to the cook. The cook made no attempt to stop him. Myself and the other customers winced and sighed. One and done - there are plenty of great options on LBI that keep a clean store and better menus. read more
