Signature Favorites

Poor Man’s Lobster Roll
Crafted with 100% sustainable, locally sourced monkfish, this roll is a New England classic with a twist. Monkfish—often called “the poor man’s lobster”—shares a similar diet with lobster, giving it that rich, sweet flavor and tender texture we all crave. With lobster populations in decline, we celebrate monkfish as an eco-friendly alternative that’s every bit as delicious. For every roll sold, $1 is donated to Eating With The Ecosystem, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting a place-based approach to sustaining New England’s wild seafood. At Mystic Fish Camp, we like to say: Why not monkfish?

Green Crab Bisque
Made from invasive green crabs, this savory bisque is our way of turning a regional problem into a flavorful solution. Each bowl helps restore balance to our coastal ecosystem, with $1 donated to Greencrab.org, a nonprofit dedicated to restoring shellfish habitats and building markets for underutilized species.

Shippy D’s Burgers
Our double-smashed patties with melty cheese are a fan favorite—available in classic beef or tuna for pescatarians.

Real Deal Fish Sticks & Fish and Chips
Hand-cut, golden crisp, and fried in flavorful beef tallow, these New England staples are served the way they should be. Upgrade your order to a retro tin lunchbox, complete with our “Greetings from Mystic” postcard, for a true throwback treat.
