Experience the Food and Beauty of Maine’s Coast

Perched on the edge of Rockland’s pristine and bustling waterfront, Archer’s on the Pier welcomes visitors from home and away to enjoy sweeping views of the ocean and an innovative take on classic comfort dishes.

Lynn Archer, owner and chef, grew up in Thomaston, Maine. Her family’s meals centered around what was available according to the season. Everything was fresh. Everything was local. Lynn has taken that philosophy and applied it to her restaurant’s recipes. Her menus feature everything from fish tacos to pesto-grilled swordfish, peekytoe crab cakes to traditional fried whole belly clams, all created using the freshest sustainable seafood and produce that Midcoast Maine has to offer.

Come in and see us, you won’t regret it!

For Lynn Archer, the affable owner and head chef of Archer’s on the Pier in Rockland, Maine, it’s all about fresh and local. “I was doing sea-to-table and farm-to-table before it became a ‘thing’,” she laughs, explaining that her father, husband and three sons are all lobstermen.

The best seafood on the Maine Coast.

Fantastic meals. Great tasting seafood on the pier, and is a great ambassador of the area and Maine. Check out the A signature dishes. We love it.

-Tourists from LA and Israel

Everything I have had at this place is amazing. The views are by far the best. You have to try their bloody Mary’s and salads! So delicious. The staff are friendly and it’s a place where people just know each other. Must check this place out if you are ever visiting.
