Where it is
Get directionsThe Lobster Bar
The Lobster Bar is upstairs at 81 Pope Avenue, Unit 201, a short walk from Coligny Beach Park and Coligny's Pope Avenue shops. It serves lobster rolls, a chicken sandwich and cocktails in a dining room with big open windows. At the 2025 Hilton Head Wingfest it took second place with the judges.
What to Order at The Lobster Bar
Lobster rolls are the reason to come, and there are two styles: the Connecticut roll, warm lobster with butter and lemon on a toasted split-top bun, and the Maine roll, chilled lobster with mayonnaise and spices on the same bun. Reviewers call the lobster rolls delicious, and the chicken sandwich and the chicken tenders also get good mentions. Rolls come with a side, and a fries upcharge on some orders drew one complaint, so ask what comes with yours.
The Room and the Bar
The dining room is upstairs, and the open windows give it light and a view of the treetops. Reviewers like sitting by the window with a drink, and one stopped in right at opening just for cocktails. Service is described as friendly and attentive on most visits. Two reviewers on busy nights met a single server for the whole room, so allow extra time at peak hours.
