        General Info
        Although there are many ways to prepare lobster, at Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound, only one way will do. Boiled in fresh, clean seawater over a wood fire produces the best lobsters in the rough. This simple recipe has brought customers back for almost five decades, providing quality and consistency in a rapidly changing world.Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound is located on Route 3 at 1237 Bar Harbor Road in Trenton, Maine, just before the bridge onto Thompson's and Mount Desert Island. It is hard to miss with the row of wood-fired cookers out front smoking away and the big sign on the roof that says, "LOBSTERS". At the present time, the seasonal eatery features boiled lobsters and steamed clams, clam chowder and lobster stew, lobster and crabmeat cocktails, lobster and crabmeat sandwiches, rolls and melted butter, with sides of potato salad and cole slaw. Blueberry cake and pie is available for dessert along with assorted ice cream bars. For those who are seafood challenged, peanut butter and jelly, ham and cheese, and tuna fish sandwiches are available. Beverages include assorted sodas, coffee, hot and iced tea. Sorry, no fried or grilled foods. Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound is grease-free!In 1956, George and Gertrude Gascon, ten years in the military, were seeking to purchase property in Manset or Southwest Harbor to settle on after retirement from the U.S. Navy. Gertrude's parents, John and Dorothy Dunbar, mentioned that Ogden's lobster pound was for sale. Because George still had ten years left to serve until retirement, an agreement was made that the Dunbars would operate the lobster pound while George finished his Naval career. The Gascons purchased the business from the Ogdens in 1956.and the Dunbars ran the operation for the next decade. George and Gertrude, true to plan, moved back to Manset in 1966 after retiring from the Navy.
