Popular Lobster Food Truck To Park In Northeast Queens This Week

BAYSIDE, QUEENS — Baysiders who didn't manage to snag a lobster roll from a neighborhood-favorite food truck on Monday aren't out of luck — the truck is posting up on other northeast Queens streets this week.

Cousins Maine Lobster, a family-owned food truck serving up lobster-focused fare, parked on Northern Boulevard on Monday, and attracted its usual crowd of locals who wanted an order of lobster-topped tater tots or New England clam chowder.

News of the truck's presence was posted in a Bayside Facebook group, mostly eliciting positive comments from locals about the lobster rolls, tacos, and soups that they ordered.

"It's expensive, but it's lobster... and it's delicious! What a treat!" wrote one, alluding to the truck's $20 per-item price point, which most neighbors agreed is expensive, but makes sense for lobster.

For some, however, the notice about the truck came a little too late. "Too bad I missed it today," commented one neighbor, followed by a sad face emoji.

Cousins Maine Lobster, however, is making several other northeast Queens stops this week.

On Wednesday the truck will be parked from noon to 8 p.m. on 148th Street in Whitestone, at 148-08 Cross Island Parkway. On Friday it will return to Northern Boulevard, this time in Little Neck, at 248-40 Northern Boulevard from noon to 8 p.m.
