    The Potted Lobster didn't fail to meet expectations - great value on the Fish & Chip special and it was an ideal venue to meet up as a group. The personnel were, as usual, really helpful

    Great experience as always. Birthday lunch for my husband and we brought the in laws with us. It was their first meal at Potted Lobster and they loved it. We all had the fish and chip special, mine was the gluten free option and it was delicious. Thank you for lovely service we have come to expect.

    We enjoyed the Friday fish and chip special which was exceptional value at £12 per head. The fish was beautifully cooked in crispy batter. The fish and chips were piping hot. The tartare sauce was delicious, and there were tasty small accompaniments of rocket in a light dressing and mushy peas. Could'nt fault it!
