Tucked in the heart of Salem, The Lobster Shanty has been a dog-friendly staple for decades. Pups are always welcome on the deck and front patio, where they can soak up the scene while you dig into a legendary lobster roll (or two). With live music, a relaxed vibe, and a prime spot for people watching, it’s the perfect place to unwind with your furry friend after exploring the city. Bring your best friend, grab a seat outside, and enjoy all the local flavor—both on the plate and on the sidewalk.
Here’s a cool local connection: The Lobster Shanty is owned by Diane (Dee) Wolf, the same owner also runs The Wolf Next Door Coffee, another dog-friendly favorite where you can grab a cozy coffee and treat with your pup by your side.
