This place is the best. Freshest seafood, great prices and accommodating service. I live 90 miles away but it’s worth the stop to take some home.
If you don’t like fresh seafood, don’t bother. If you like the best and freshest from a good group of professionals, this is your spot.
I picked up a tub of fresh crab meat along with 4 lbs of clams the other night. The steamers were so sweet tasting. The crab meat....I cannot rave enough. Cannot wait to pick up more. We have always gotten great seafood at Cantrell' s, always fresh.
Get my seafood here as much as I can. No matter if I'm home or get a craving on the road, I always use them. Always fresh and tasty, and always best for the buck.
Clams were clean. Lobster salad was awesome. Crab meat was best I've ever had for sure. Scallops were to die for. Can't wait to try the smoked salmon !!!
Two weeks ago I bought steamers off the truck in Skowhegan. .... OMG!!! Absolutely delicious! Yesterday I purchased scallops & haddock. ...... the absolute best!! I love you guys!
Great seafood I visited but I moved to Summerville SC so no seafood like yours there I Love my seafood See you next year but I can also order some Thank you for my great seafood fix
Just stopped in on our way back south. Picked up a ton of lobsters and they were friendly and accommodating. Just hope the lobsters make it!! Ran out of hardshell, so tempting fate with soft...... Lol. Had a bunch of fresh seafood available.
Best fresh seafood in Maine! Prices are awesome and quality is top notch!
I honestly have not eaten their food but looks wonderful now I am hungry for seafood yummm
Fantastic place! Highly recommend you check it out!
The best FRESH seafood, the lobsters were delicious and the thought of clams, scallops, fish, scallops, oysters, etc make me think how lucky we are to live in Maine.
Been there many times.. Always happy... I only eat seafood. I don't eat beef, pork. Or chicken so I stop there ALOT

I have been going since I was 16. Love their food,Always have! ��
This is a great place to buy seafood. We bought fish for dinner and it was delicious. The employee who waited on us was knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend coming here.
Love this place….. they ship live lobsters all over the US. We had some hard shell lobsters sent to us in Florida and the next day they arrived and we’re lively and we’re Delicious.
I will share there number with all the people we meet in our travels.
The staff was helpful in getting what we needed. Everything was super fresh and cooked up amazing.
Their packing for travel was perfect. We didn’t cook the lobsters and oysters till the next evening, and everything was fresh.
Couldn’t have asked for more.

July 21, 2021 - News flash . . . Cantrell’s sells SEAFOOD 🦞! Scott Cantrell started selling seafood in 1983, now his son Andy operates the Topsham store, with several of their trucks going out to Winslow, Oxford, Newport, and Jay ( Maine). I rate this good operation a solid 4.5 ! They were out of the soft shell lobsters, but I still enjoyed my hard shell lobsters just the same. . . Good service, thanks Morgan!
They charge an extra $1 a pound to steam the lobsters, then pack in a steam bag to take home and make your own lobster rolls! Which I did! They sell other seafood items as well:
Alaskan King Crab legs
Oysters
Mussels
Salmon
Maine Crabs 🦀
Canadian Shrimp meat
Scallops
Trout
( and more)
As for the prices, seafood is more expensive than chicken ! As climate change impacts the coastline environment, warming water temperatures. . . Fish move further away, thus reduced “ fish catches” in our area.
Maine is known for their Lobster Roll ! 🦞🦞
( Make your own)
Step 1 . . . cook/steam your lobster
Step 2 . . . Shuck your lobster
Step 3 . . . Melt some butter in sauce pot

I've gotten seafood at Cantrell's in Topsham a few times now. I've never had a bad experience. On Saturday I shopped around for lobsters and Cantrell's had the best price at $7.99/lb so I stopped in and got a half dozen chicks, while there I saw that they had fresh haddock at $9.99/lb, so I asked the nice girl for a fillet. She was very attentive. I liked that she drained the lobsters before putting them on the scale and then she picked out a nice thick fillet of haddock for me. I brought everything home and the lobsters were fresh and full of that sweet soft shell goodness. I broiled the haddock the next night and it came out fantastic, just a great fresh slice of heaven. I am very grateful for Cantrell's. When the young man has waited on me in the past he was attentive and knowledgeable and the young women was the same, very nice and helpful. I do live in the area so I see activity around the seafood market and the fishermen always seem pleasant dropping off their catch, the service is great and the selection is pretty good as well. The prices are decent but certain things can fluctuate, like the crabmeat is at $19.99 where you might find it for a buck or two less if you shop around, but where I've seen lobster meat at $65/lb, Cantrells has it around $55/lb so as a general rule the prices are quite competitive and you can't beat the freshness of the seafood. I will say that I have never been disappointed by anything that I have purchased at Cantrell Seafood and they are my first place to check out. Good service, friendly people and fresh seafood at good prices.
I was nervous (even skeptical) about shipping lobsters and steamers to west cost, but it was for a birthday so had to try. I am happy to report this was a great experience, the lobsters and seafood was superb, everything was fresh. Lobsters were all alive, steamers muscles were not broken and they were fresh as well. Being from Maine, we know what fresh seafood is, and not rating as folks that never had a real fresh Maine lobster. I am so happy with Cantrell's Seafood that will definitely do this again. Thanks guys, it was even better than what you promised!
Andy and staff are awesome and everything is always fresh!
Hard-working family and values.. top-notch Seafood!! Would recommend them throughout the state and they ship nationally!! Thank you for all your hard work
Today I stopped by the store to share a minor issue I had with frozen lobster purchase. Basically before I finished talking, I was told that they would give me the equivalent fresh lobster to apologize for the issue. Excellent listening and excellent immediate action taken. Thank you so much. This outstanding customer service is why I'll continue to satisfy my seafood appetite with you. TY!
I was in Maine at my brother's house for almost 3 months caring for our Mom and we went to Cantrells about 3 times a week. The seafood was super fresh and wonderful. Collen who works there was always helpful and always greeted us with a warm welcome and a cheerful smile.
