As summer draws to a close, so does Panache Mobile’s third season. Not to worry, though—if you haven’t yet indulged in one of our delicious lobster rolls, there’s still time! Much to the delight of our fans, both Panache Mobile locations will remain open until Thanksgiving. We look forward to welcoming you one last time—until next summer, that is! Please see our opening hours for more information.
