My pick for the best lobster roll on the list, their lobster is served on a sesame slider bun instead of the traditional hot dog bun. While it’s smaller than its counterparts and the bun could be toasted a bit more, the lobster meat itself and the combination as a whole pack more flavor than the others. The size doesn’t matter, with how good this lobster roll is, just order two rolls or go straight for the jumbo! Since opening in 1947, this restaurant has frequently been named as having the Best Hot Lobster Roll or Best Lobster Roll in Connecticut. This large restaurant is always crowded, so be prepared to wait a bit.
