Have been twice on a Company outing to Cabbage Island. It is a true Maine experience. The boat ride is relaxing and not long to get to the island. The food is unbelievable. Lots of food and so good! The service is great. You will have a wonderful time!

This is by far the best thing that my husband and I have found in Maine! We loved the boat, the food, the people and Cabbage Island itself. I want to go back again! It was a perfect day!

I've been to Cabbage Island several times . . . if you leave hungry it's your own fault! They know how to do it and they do it well. It's everything you should expect from a beautiful boat ride and a Maine lobster experience. We didn't have little ones with us so I'm not sure what they would eat although... More

I went on this solely because of the TripAdvisor reviews and they were right. The food is great! We were lucky to have an air show above us on our way to the island so that added some extra excitement. The host family were nice and made sure our drinks were filled and food served in time. There are also... More

I've lived in Maine my entire life, but this was my first trip to the island. The boat captain took us out and showed us the sites along the shoreline and the various islands. When we arrived at Cabbage Island, we were greeted with the kind faces of the owners and their staff. The food was wonderful, and we had... More
