1ANGELCAT Posted August 14, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Last year it was $20.00 plus Bahamas Vat tax 7.5% If you search the site with facts about HAL you will find pictures under general info Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mllewis48 Posted August 14, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Saw the item on the HAL blog regarding the Lobster Shack on HMC. What is the price for the lobster meal? We have done it more than once, to us it was well worth it and very good! Cost is as quoted. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freestyling Posted August 14, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 14, 2017 We also enjoyed the Lobster Shack. Nice that they now charge to your room. The 1st time we where there it was cash only. Never found the BBQ very good, so having this option works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lastlook Posted August 14, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I gather that this would be Caribbean lobster (no claws) rather than New England lobster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a photo of the Lobster Shack, menu and some other information. If the link drops you into the thread somewhere random, just go to post #326 for all the shacktasticness. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?p=51833869 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare POA1 Posted August 14, 2017 #10 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Many thanks for the great information and photos. Your posts are always so entertaining AND informative! My pleasure. The Lobster Shack was a nice little set up, but as I said said in the thread, we're not big spiny lobster fans. On our sailing, Half Moon Cay followed the second formal (sorry Gala) night. I would have expected that most people would have gotten their fill of Maine lobster tails then. There were some takers though. If warm water lobster is something you like, it's not a bad deal. They cooked up live lobsters and I was told that they were decent sized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another example of a well-intentioned CCer posting information on here that is inaccurate :eek: ... although in fairness to you, mllewis48, your Post clearly indicated that it was a "guess" and, more importantly, was not about something that OP (or anyone else, for that matter) was relying on in making cruise plans. :D Smooth sailing :ship: :ship: :ship: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted August 15, 2017 #13 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Another example of a well-intentioned CCer posting information on here that is inaccurate :eek: Another example of incorrect information being corrected by another CC poster fairly quickly. Had the incorrect information been given by a Seattle HAL rep, it likely would not have been corrected at all. The value of information gleaned from CC should not be so readily, consistently, discounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know if you have butler service with a cabana, will they bring lobster to the cabana if you purchase it? Sent from my SM-G930V using Forums mobile app I don't know, but given the set up and location of the shack, and the fact that you don't want lobster sitting around any longer than necessary, I'd eat it at the shack. You may want to call Seattle to ask if lobster is better served right away or if it improves after walking it around the beach in the sun. You can't really trust these Interwebs advices. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't really trust these Interwebs advices. ;) Personally, I'd skip the phone call and write directly to Orlando Ashford. Having written confirmation that your lobster will be served at the proper temperature could be invaluable in case of a dispute on the island. It would avoid the awkward situation of saying "POA1 said so!" as your only argument! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
