About
The Lobster Shed is a popular, albeit expensive, outdoor seafood spot at The Pig-at Harlyn Bay. While many guests enjoy the fresh lobster and the beautiful setting, there are frequent complaints about high prices, small portions, and inconsistent food quality. It's seen as a 'treat' destination rather than a regular spot.
