A LANDMARK EATERY FOR MORE THAN 60 YEARS
Home of “luxury lobster,” Barnacle Billy’s, tucked along the edge of picturesque Perkins Cove, will delight you with their classic lobster and seafood offerings and keep you coming back with their warm comfortable hospitality and inviting view of “The Cove.” Boiled lobster with drawn butter has been Barnacle Billy's calling card since we opened our doors in 1961. Generations of Ogunquit families and Perkins Cove visitors have returned year after year making this landmark their touchstone for quintessential Maine coastal fare. So much so it is kind of a rite of passage, “I ate my first “Billy's” lobster when I turned four!” Run by generations of the Tower family, founded by the cove legend, the late Billy Tower and his wife Bunny, and then by their children, and their own children.
New England coastal fare includes Maine lobster rolls, hot lobster sauté, hearty clam chowder, Lobster stew, steamed clams, lobster or crab salad rolls & salad plates are ever-popular lunch and dinner favorites. More than seafood, ‘Billy’s” also offers fresh summer salads, barbeque chicken, corn on the cob, grilled hot dogs and hamburgers, and tempting desserts. Their signature beverage? Their Rum Punch, of course. Speaking of punch, a Myers rum floater is an optional add-on for those in a festive spirit!
Extensive indoor and sundeck seating offers our guests splendid views of both the beauty of Perkins Cove and the Atlantic Ocean beyond.
