Lobster Fest!

Join us the first Saturday in October!

If you have forgotten what Lobster Fest is, or you never had the pleasure to attend a Lobster Fest in the past, let us explain… Lobster Fest is a unique St. Paul’s event where we come together as a church to serve up thousands (yes, thousands!) of lobsters and lobster rolls to the local community. 2026 will be our 16th annual Lobster Fest, and we’re getting pretty good at it! Customers can pre-order their lobsters and lobster rolls online throughout September. The lobsters are packed into a refrigerated truck in Maine and driven directly down to Cary. On Saturday, we start serving at 11 AM and don’t stop until 3 PM. Pricing for 2026 will be announced soon.

What we serve

• Live and Just-Cooked 1½ lb. Lobsters, direct from Maine, to take-out
• Lobster Meals, including sides and dessert, to eat-in or take-out
• 1/4 lb. Lobster Rolls on a brioche bun, including sides and dessert, to eat-in or take-out
• Chicken Meals, for land-lubbers, to eat-in or take-out
• Indoor and outdoor seating
• Fast, friendly service!
• Simple on-line ordering

Where does the money go?

All proceeds will be used to support ministries that bring hope, healing and practical support to our local community and our world.  Learn more on our Ministries page.

What should you do?

The amount of lobster we can have delivered from Maine is limited, so you’ll definitely want to lock in your order by pre-purchasing using our simple online-ordering system.  (As the event gets closer, we’ll also send you an email reminder.)  Then just show up on the day of the event between 11 AM and 3 PM and enjoy your lobsters and lobster rolls for eat-in or take-out. Whether you can make it or not, please help us get the word out by sharing this page with your friends on social media.  Follow us on Facebook.   For more information, or to be added to our Lobster Fest specific e-mailing list, please contact us at lobsterfestcary@stpaulscary.org.

Please join us for this very fun event every October.
