Lobster Garage

This classic fish and chips lobster roll is from the Light Horse Tavern’s newest, and impromptu seafood joint. It was created in the garage next door by the owner to work around restrictions on bars and restaurants due to the pandemic. Creativity points! There are also cocktails, wine, and beer on tap to accompany your seafood meal.
