Not Everyone Gets Invited to the Table (But You Just Did)

Not Everyone Gets Invited to the Table (But You Just Did)

A letter to the lobster-curious. The flavor-hunters. The folks who haven’t experienced lobster from 48 Union Wharf in Portland, Maine.

Let me tell you something strange.

We didn’t build this business to sell lobster.

We built it to bottle the moment when the table goes quiet—except for laughter, clinking glasses, and someone saying, “This is amazing.”

It started on a dock in Portland, Maine. Just me, a cooler, and a calling.

Today, our lobster has landed on plates in all 50 states—and been featured on The TODAY Show, named #1 Lobster Delivery Service by Good Housekeeping, and spotlighted by The NY Times, Forbes, NBC, and more.

But none of that matters until it reaches your doorstep.

For the Curious, the Cautious, and the Still-Deciding

You’ve clicked, browsed, maybe even hovered over the “Add to Cart” button.
You’ve imagined what it would be like to host with lobster so fresh it tastes like it just left the dock.

Then maybe you hesitated.

We get it. Grocery store seafood has done you dirty.
You deserve better. And that’s why we’re here.

We’re not fast food. We’re not bulk frozen.
We’re hand-caught, hand-packed, and shipped with heart—from our wharf to your welcome mat.

We can promise your first order will be an experience to remember.

I look forward to serving you. From the Wharf with Love,

Mark, Chief Lobster Enthusiast

P.S. TONIGHT: You can get a 6-pack of 6-7 oz Lobster Tails for less than the 4-pack! It feels like a mistake, but it’s just us showing up big. ORDER NOW >
