October Beach days! Surfside Subs Closing for the Season at the end of the week.

October 28, 2024. Surfside Subs is closing for the season— later this year because the weather has been warm, and they are slammed. On some summer days, they have record lobster roll sales. Can you guess how many?

Customers lined up one fall day for mudiga steak subs, turkey subs, tuna salad, pizzas, and yes, lobster rolls, which are on special this week. Also pizza. Buy any pizza and get a second one for $5, scrumptious fresh and hot. Too much? When you’re cold and missing a Long Beach Surfside slice, you’ll be happy you bought an extra to wrap and freeze for later.

new this summer:

Salty Frank’s Dogs will be on site Tuesday through Sunday fair weather days, and weekends after Labor Day. The menu changes up daily and goes beyond dogs (lobster rolls, mozzarella sticks, chicken…) One photo shows  looking back to his childhood: his family stayed in the first house on the front cottages row. There used to be a store on the ground floor.

Sunday Night at the Lobster Pool

Sunday night we arrived at the Lobster Pool just as the sun was setting. By 11:30 that morning a line had formed out the door, yet despite this fact, we were greeted graciously and had a delicious dinner of (what else) Captain Joe’s lobster rolls.
