The annual event brings hundreds to Founders Landing on the last Saturday in July.

Several hundred North Fork residents and visitors enjoyed a surf or turf dinner in a serene setting as the Southold and Greenport Rotary Clubs hosted their 27th Annual Lobsterfest at Founder’s Landing Saturday.

One of the North Fork’s most beloved summertime traditions, the four-hour event raises money each year for a variety of projects that benefit both communities.

Guests get a choice of lobster or steak with sides of steamed mussels, baked potato, corn on the cob, cole slaw and watermelon. And there’s hamburgers and hot dogs for children.
