“ The food here is consistently great! It's a place I would recommend warmly to anyone who wants a study breakfast or lunch. My personal favorite item on their menu is the French toast with peaches and pecans, so tasty I almost forgot to take a photo before it was all gone again.. ”
“ 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 ”
“ Outstanding vibe and food. We had the meatloaf and lobster sliders, which were delicious. We are often in Cohasset and will visit again. Thanks Mary! ”
“ Excellent little place! We got the jumbo lobster rolls and the chicken Marsala which were all very delicious. The ambience was great and the servers were friendly. We look forward to coming back. ”
“ We happened to be in the area looking for a casual lunch spot and found 5 south main. Very nice staff with a wide selection of menu options w. We had excelled lam chowder, chicken Caesar wrap, hot honey chicken sandwich, and three layer turkey sandwich- all were excellent! ”
“ The best lobster sliders in New England! Watermelon gazpacho was also wonderful on a sweltering summer day. ”
“ There are endless lists that recommend “the best lobster roll” you need to try. There is no better lobster roll than the one at 5 South Main - nice pillowy roll with a generous serving of lobster meat coated (but not soaked) in mayo. Also recommend the chicken Caesar wrap. The staff is always really pleasant. Have primarily gone for the takeout, but also have enjoyed dining in. Very cozy in here (4 to 6 tables). Perfect place to come when looking for a very small and quiet atmosphere. Menu is just the right size - everything is freshly prepared. Very generous pours of wine for anyone dining in for dinner. ”
“ 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. ”
