Located in Selbyville, Delaware; directly off Route 54 with a magical view of the marsh.    The Twinings opened their doors for the first time in July of 2010 to an instant success.  Twining's Lobster Shanty 's secret of success is a pleasing decor, attentive staff and an interesting menu with quality ingredients.
 
All tables have a great view of the marsh, so you don't have to make a reservation to get a good seat!  Come join us in our funky little place where the magic begins in the marsh at 12pm!

My family and I were looking for a good seafood dinner while on vacation at OCMD. The lobster shanty had a great lookng menu and great reviews so we chose to stop in. There was so wait ( we arrived around 4pm) the staff was very friendly and attentive,( I am a server myself )and our server was amazing! The food was absolutely amazing and exceeded my expectations! The portion sizes were huge! I got a shrimp/lobster salad ( duo-something it was called) everything down to the dressing was phenomenal, it was the biggest salad i ever seen served at a restaurant before. My dad got the lobster pot pie. We also shared crab and artichoke dip and got the chowdah soup and lobster and shrimp bisque. Everything was just amazing. No complaints at all. 10 out of 10 I highly recommend!

We ended up trying this spot just as a last minute lunch spot. So happy we ended up here. Food was phenomenal. I got the wings which were perfectly cooked and crispy. My husband got the surf and turf burger. He said it was one of the best burgers he has had and it was huge! All the kids were happy with their Chix Tenders which looked house made and not frozen. Also I have to add the bathrooms are the nicest that I have been in, out of all the restaurants at the beach.very clean. The kids enjoyed birdwatching out of the windows.

Must go to place for lobster. Staff is very knowledgeable about the menu items and the view outside. Absolutely would recommend for lunch or even dinner. Couldn't stop praising the food!
