Waterman's Beach Lobster


Waterman's Beach Lobster was a family owned lobster pound in South Thomaston, Maine. Anne Manahan opened it in 1986. Her daughter, Sandy Manahan, closed the place on September 4, 2016. She didn't want to sell it "because we don't want our name to go downhill."
Besides lobsters and steamed clams, Anne was just as famous for the homemade pies she would bake.
In 2017, the Manahan family applied, and was approved, to turn the spot into a microbrewery and tasting room.

Honors and Awards

In 2001, Waterman's won an America's Classics award from the James Beard Foundation.
Epicurious named it one of their 7 Favorite Maine Lobster Shack, pointing out the seaside location and picnic tables.
