5 South Main

LOBSTER ALERT! I think I just accidentally found the best lobster roll south of Essex County! If you like a HUGE portion of bodacious crustaceous deliciousness I strongly encourage making the drive from Boston. Get the Gooey Louis. It is a massive lobster melt on sourdough. The clam chowder was good too but I literally took home more than half of what I dub the "KING LOUIS." IMPORTANT HEADS UP: They have 4 tables. They may add more for the summer, but for now call ahead or be ready to take a stroll along the harbor or check out the downtown shops.

The Nashville chicken sandwich was verrrrrry good, and even for this Texan with a high tolerance for spice, it had a really good kick! My wife had the Korean BBQ sandwich and loved it. I'd stay away from the chicken pesto wrap, though. It wasn't well-wrapped, and according to the person who ordered it, it had very little pesto flavor (and not much flavor in general). Overall a good stop and a tasty meal. We would return!

Great spot for a casual breakfast with friends. Had to wait about 10-15 mins for our party of 4 but that is to be expected with such a small place. The staff were polite and even genuinely funny when interacting with us. Definitely had some great laughs. Food was pretty standard though we didnt get anything game breaking (simple eggs and toast). The cinnamon roll French toast was tasty though!! Service 5/5 Food 4/5 Atmosphere 5/5

From a road warriors perspective when searching for a quick sit down or take out lunch in Cohasset this is the spot. Small restaurant with ample seating inside and out. No worries about checking the sandwich or bag for ordered items. The order is completed correctly the first time and always with a smile. Unlike many deli's that forget the condiments that you request. 5 South Main is on my short list for low key, delicious creative sandwiches and soups from the menu or interesting specials from the blackboard. Great desserts as well. Dinners with a beer and wine license. Sunday brunch too. Tables outside for warm weather dining. Highly recommended.
