POLL RESULTS: The Best Seafood Served In Eastern Maine

We thought that there may have been something fishy about this poll. Well, there is.

A week ago we put the question out there, "Where is the best seafood served in eastern Maine?" Turns out that people really like their seafood in this area of Maine. Go figure.

Clams, shrimp, haddock, mussels, scallops, salmon, and of course sweet-tasting lobster, whether it's on a plate or in a roll, we love it!  We go to our favorite take-out or our favorite dine-in restaurant for it, and then when we don't feel like cooking, there's some of us that know our favorite seafood is really not that far away at all, but in our very own kitchen.

Over the past few months, we've passed along our poll results for hamburgers, pizza, Chinese food, steakhouses, Italian sandwiches, breakfast, barbeque, and ice cream.  Now, we have the results from our seafood poll.

Here are the top five:

#5 - The Lobstah Buoy food truck, Bangor

#4 - Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound, Trenton

#3 - Angler's Restaurants, Hampden and Searsport

#2 - McLaughlin's Lobster, Seafood and Take-Out, Bangor

#1 - Eagle's Nest, Brewer

Congratulations to everyone at the Eagle's Nest Restaurant at 1016 North Main Street in Brewer for coming out on top of our poll.

It must be worthy, as over the years when someone from away would ask one of my co-workers here at the radio station where to get a good lobster roll, no matter who was asked they would respond with "the Eagle's Nest." We also hear that while their lobster rolls may be infamous that their very generous seafood platter certainly won't leave you hungry.

Special recognition goes to Bagaduce Lunch in Penobscot, Union River Lobster Pot in Ellsworth, and Governor's in Ellsworth, Bangor, and Old Town.

Thanks to everyone that took our latest food poll!
