History

Dorothy Pye was alway a motivated person. 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-six 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 husband, the opportunity to  manage this wonderful restaurant. It is our goal to  continue this great tradition and serve up the area’s best and freshest seafood.
