The Phillies are back and the Final Four is happening. It must be Spring! To celebrate we just added a Lobster Filled Gooey Grilled Cheese to tag team with our Crab Grilled Cheese from last weekend. At $14.95 each it's a true taste treat but when you buy 2 (mix n match if you'd like), you'll pay just $22 for both. Add $3 for fires and you are ready for anything your taste buds require. Enjoy and stop in for the best fresh seafood and selection in Bucks county. Go Phils.
