}}
A [[lobster]] roll is a kind of sandwich filled with lobster [[meat]]. A traditional lobster roll contains the fresh cooked [[meat]] of a one-pound lobster, tossed with [[mayonnaise]] and served on a [[grilled]] [[hot dog]] bun or similar roll, served so that the opening is on the top rather than on the side. The filling may also contain [[diced]] [[celery]] and/or scallion, or use drawn [[butter]] instead of or in addition to the mayonnaise. The sandwich can also contain [[lettuce]] and [[lemon]].
[[Lobster]] rolls in the U.S. are especially 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 in the U.S., where lobster fishing is common. They tend to be virtually unheard-of in landlocked regions (such as the Upper Midwest), where lobster is an expensive delicacy.

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, called the McLobster.
