The Lobster Pound

We went to the LP on Sat night after waiting all winter to get up there. I don’t like to bash anyone but I was not happy with the manager
There were some minor issues like being disappointed by the limited menu (no crab legs or prime rib on Sat night- 6:30pm!) and the soggy fried zucchini appetizers could have been better, but we had an awesome waitress who made the meal fun anyway but the manger was another story
The manager came over after our meal and asked how it was- we told her some of our disappointments and asked what happened to Mike the old manger. This prompted her to tell us how the old manger was no longer there and he basically sucked bc he ran some other restaurant into the ground…we were a bit shocked she would bring this up

…she appeared to have an attitude from the start
The service was excellent but the manger sure did put a bad taste in our mouth
The one good thing we got out of the visit was that we found out that the old manager is opening up a place on the pier---that would be great!! Oh and we also hear there is a topless place going in over in Laconia for all you guys

In the interest of politcal correctness I would point out that both genders might enjoy that new waitstaff uniform.

As far as I know, Mike Ray was one of the family owners of the LP. AFAIK, he still is, I haven't read of any changes. I met him last summer, a truly nice soul. Our impression on two visits last year was very positive, a very well-run establishment.
