According to the Mason’s Famous Lobster Rolls website, founder Dan Beck worked in the restaurant industry as a seafood buyer for many years. In that role, he regularly visited Maine and became well acquainted with the state’s lobster fishermen, and he says his goal is to serve lobster rolls as authentically as possible.
Most Mason’s Famous Lobster Rolls locations are open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sundays.
