1826 marked the end of Capen’s Dry Goods Store and the beginning of Atwood and Bacon’s establishment. The new owners installed the fabled semi-circular Oyster Bar — where the greats of Boston paused for refreshment. (Click here to see an original menu from the Atwood and Bacon Oyster House.)

It was at the Oyster Bar that Daniel Webster, a constant customer, daily drank his tall tumbler of brandy and water with each half-dozen oysters, seldom having less than six plates.

The toothpick was first used in the United States at the Union Oyster House. Enterprising Charles Forster of Maine first imported the picks from South America. To promote his new business he hired Harvard boys to dine at the Union Oyster House and ask for toothpicks.

A college president was salad man here. Jack Coleman, President of Pennsylvania’s Haverford College worked in total anonymity for a few months during his sabbatical when he secretly sampled some of America’s rigorous jobs and lifestyles.

Where are you located?
We ship all our live Maine lobster packages directly from our warehouse in Biddeford, Maine (that's why our lobsters are always awesome and totally ocean-fresh). Our National Customer Service Headquarters are in Chicago (our sweet home), since Dan the Lobster Man was born and raised in the suburbs here. We do ship frozen packages from coast to coast from our Chicago warehouse.

How are Lobster Gram lobsters packaged?
Our lobsters are packed in a Styrofoam cooler with frozen gel packs to keep them cold, thirsty pads to keep them moist, bubble wrap to prevent too much shifting, and the whole thing goes in a corrugated box.

How long do Lobster Gram lobsters stay alive?Lobsters can live approximately up to 36 hours outside of water. They do this by storing up the salty seawater in their gills, which is what they 'breath'. Their ideal temperature is between 40 and 50 degrees, which is why we use the ice gel packs in the cooler. Then, the Overnight Air delivery gets them to your cooking pot just in time for dinner!

Where do Lobster Gram lobsters come from?
All of our live lobsters are called "Maine" lobsters, yet any lobster that carries the "Maine" label is not necessarily caught off the coast of Maine. "Maine" lobsters may be caught anywhere as far north as Nova Scotia and as far south as North Carolina. We also carry frozen "Maine" lobster tails, in addition to 10 different varieties of frozen lobster tails from all around the world!

Where do Lobster Gram steaks come from?
All of our steaks are cut fresh right in Chicago, where all of our mid-western corn-fed beef is carefully inspected, graded and cold-aged to its tender, flavorful perfection. We only carry a very high grade USDA Choice or USDA Prime (the highest of beef grades). We even ship our steaks from Chicago to Biddeford so every package contains the same incredible top-quality beef.

How Long Has Lobster Gram Been In Business?
We have been serving customers since 1987! And believe us, we've come a long way since those early days of Dan single-handedly taking calls and processing orders in the basement of his house!

About Fisherman's Fleet

Established in 1979, Fisherman's Fleet, Inc. started as a small family run seafood and fish market in Wayland, Massachusetts. Soon after its opening, our company became known for extremely high quality, fresh fish. Within a year, some of the local well-established restaurants in the area approached the owner to see if he would be interested in supplying the same quality fish that he had in his market to their restaurants on a daily basis, and the rest is history. Today, Fisherman's Fleet prides itself on its humble beginnings and keeps that same philosophy and tradition of delivering the best quality money can buy. We have no desire to be the biggest, just the best. With the strong desire to deliver the best seafood, our company has grown dramatically. Today we supply some of the finest restaurants in Boston and the New England area, as well as Institutions and super market chains throughout the country.

We attribute our success to many factors, but one of the major reasons is our stringent policy to Quality Control. If you deliver outstanding quality day in and day out clients will seek you out. We have buyers in all major ports in New England as well as California, Mexico, Florida, Iceland and South America. Over the years through trial and error we have found the best boats and captains who take the time and effort to handle the fish in a manner that is conducive to preserving the quality of the fish no matter what the species may be. Over the years, these relationships have developed into a bond of mutual respect that allows us to grow and deliver only the highest in quality. We also feel service is a major factor to our continued growth. We strive to provide top notch service on a consistent basis. In a time sensitive business, there is no doubt service goes hand in hand with quality.

Today Fisherman's Fleet operates three divisions: our wholesale division for restaurants and institutions, our mail-order division for retail consumers throughout the country interested in Maine lobsters and fresh seafood delivered overnight by U.P.S., and our retail store for local consumers. All our seafood is processed in our federally inspected facilities. All products are processed and delivered to our accounts within a 6 to 24 hour period to maximize freshness.

We welcome all questions and inquiries. To find out how you or your company can take advantage of fresh or frozen seafood for your home or commercial institution, please call us at 1-888-SEAFOOD, Eastern Standard Time.
