Taste of Maine has been serving up fresh seafood since 1978 and is already famous for its giant inflatable lobster that sits on the roof and its legendary “World’s Largest Lobster Roll.”

The original version is no small feat, it stretches 22 inches long, and anyone who can finish one earns a spot in the restaurant’s “Clean Plate Club.” But this summer, they decided to take things to another level.

The new Monster Lobster Roll is a full 3 feet long, loaded with 2½ pounds of fresh Maine lobster meat, including tail, claw, and knuckle, served on a 6-inch roll. It’s a seafood lover’s dream and comes with a $259.99 price tag.

Located at 161 Main Street in Woolwich, Maine, Taste of Maine is celebrating its 48th season. With summer adventures in full swing and the 4th of July weekend coming up, it just might be the perfect excuse to plan a coastal road trip, enjoy some fresh Maine seafood, and see if you can tackle a lobster roll bigger than your appetite.
