A traditional '''lobster roll''' is a [[sandwich]] filled with [[lobster]] meat soaked in [[butter]] and served on a steamed [[hot dog bun]] or similar roll, so that the opening is on the top rather than on the side. There are variations of this sandwich made in other parts of New England, which may contain diced [[celery]] or [[scallion]], and mayonnaise. The sandwich may also contain [[lettuce]], [[lemon]] juice, [[salt]] and [[black pepper]]. Traditional [[New England]] restaurants serve lobster rolls (made with butter, not mayonnaise) with [[potato chips]] or [[french fries]] on the side. {{fact|date=August 2013}} The lobster roll was first originated at a restaurant named Perry's,<ref>http://books.google.com/books?id=x1nwnJach6kC&pg=PA28&lpg=PA28&dq=Perry%27s,+in+Milford+lobster+roll&source=bl&ots=2qmOdgo_oN&sig=gwp1Hk2l6ts2Psq_QkEbRFzDzbw&hl=en&sa=X&ei=pmPbUMuaOom00AGhiIH4Bw&ved=0CJUBEOgBMA0#v=onepage&q=Perry%27s%2C%20in%20Milford%20lobster%20roll&f=false</ref><ref>http://www.ctpost.com/news/article/Shell-game-Milford-claims-bragging-rights-as-523288.php</ref> in [[Milford, Connecticut|Milford]], Connecticut as early as 1929,<ref>http://www.connecticutsaltwaterfishing.com/2012/08/milford-ct-home-of-lobster-roll.html</ref> according to John Mariani's, "[[Encyclopedia of American Food and Drink]]."<ref>http://www.roadfood.com/EatingTours/26/maine-lobster-roll</ref><ref>http://johnmariani.com/</ref> Once Perry's put the new sandwich on its menu, its popularity spread up and down the Connecticut coast, but not far beyond. For those residing in Connecticut, a lobster roll served warm is simply called a "lobster roll" while the lobster roll served cold as it is throughout the rest of the northeast region and the world is called a "lobster salad roll" . The lobster salad roll took off on the Eastern End of Long Island, New York, starting in 1965, pioneered by the Lobster Roll Restaurant [http://www.lobsterroll.com The Lobster Roll].<ref>{{cite web|year=2011 |title=New England's Best Lobster Roll |url=http://gonewengland.about.com/b/2011/07/04/new-englands-best-lobster-roll.htm |first=Kim |last=Beckius|publisher=About.com |page=1 }}</ref>

As far back as 1970, chopped lobster meat heated in [[drawn butter]] was served on a hot dog bun at road side stands such as [[Red's Eats]] in [[Maine]],<ref name="Roadfood">{{cite book|year=2002 |title=Roadfood |first1=Jane |last1=Stern |first2=Michael |last2=Stern |publisher=Broadway Books |pages=32–33 |isbn=0-7679-0809-0}}</ref> Lobster rolls in the U.S. are associated with the state of Maine, but are also commonly available at [[seafood]] restaurants in the other New England states and on Eastern [[Long Island]], where lobster fishing is common. They tend to be virtually unheard-of in landlocked regions (such as the [[Upper Midwest]]), where fresh lobster is more expensive and more difficult to obtain.

Lobster rolls prepared in Maine generally have several common characteristics: first, the roll itself is a "New England" or "Frankfurter" roll that is baked slightly differently from a standard hot dog roll, so the sides are flat and can be buttered on the outside and lightly grilled or toasted, and is split on the top instead of the side; second, the lobster meat in the roll is usually served cold, rather than warm or hot; third, there can be a very light spread of mayonnaise inside the bun or tossed with the meat before filling the roll, though usually do not have any other ingredients typical of the "lobster salad" variation in other parts of New England. The lobster meat is usually knuckle, claw, and tail meat chunks, with 4oz of meat ("1/4 pound") the common advertised serving size.

They are a staple summer meal throughout the Maritime provinces in [[Canada]], particularly [[Nova Scotia]] where they may also appear on [[hamburger]] buns, [[baguettes]], or other types of bread rolls — even [[pita]] pockets. The traditional sides are [[potato chips]] and [[dill pickles]].

Some [[McDonald's]] restaurants in New England and the [[Canadian Maritimes]] offer lobster rolls as a seasonal menu item when McDonald's can buy frozen lobster cheaply, called the [[McLobster]] Roll.<ref>{{cite book|year=2002 |title=Understanding Business |first1=William G. |last1=Nickels |first2=James M. |last2=McHugh |first3=Susan M. |last3=McHugh |publisher=McGraw-Hill |volume=1 |edition=6 |chapter=Getting to know Jack Greenberg of McDonald's |page=427 |isbn=0-07-232054-0}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|date=August 18, 2006 |title=North to Canada, for an Ocean View |url=http://travel2.nytimes.com/2006/08/18/travel/escapes/18canada.html |first=Louise |last=Tutelian |work=The New York Times |accessdate=2010-06-13}}</ref>
