The standout feature at The Lobster Pot must be the fish and chips—the batter crispy and the fish fresh, making it hard to find better in the area. The portions are generous, with many raving about the size of the large cod. People love the speedy service, allowing for a quick meal before heading off to the beach. Many customers appreciate the affordability, with prices making it an attractive option for families. The friendly owners add a personal touch to the experience, making diners feel right at home. Whether grabbing a bite alone or sharing with family, the vibe can’t be beaten. Enjoying this classic takeaway on a bench by the sea is a rite of passage!
Most Disliked
As a cash-only establishment, some visitors encounter inconveniences if they forget to bring cash. It can be frustrating for those accustomed to card payments, especially during busy times. Some customers express a desire for a more extensive seating area, as the takeaway nature sometimes means limited options for immediate dining, particularly during peak hours. While parking on the street is free, it can sometimes become scarce during weekends or beach days, causing slight delays for those looking to grab a spot nearby. Lastly, during peak season, the quick turnover could mean occasional waits, despite the efficient service.

£3.10 at time of writing for a large chips. That's a great price....chips were everything I would have hoped for too...hot, tasty, perfect chips. Just a short walk to the beach, perfect. As others have already confirmed, is cash only...I had to get some specifically as I rarely use cash.

The best fish & chips I've eaten in the Brighton and Saltdean area. The quality of the food is great and the owners are wonderful. We enjoyed our meal on the edge of the cliffs with a great view of the sea. I highly recommend this takeaway restaurant.

Cash only! Great prices, wonderful staff, would highly recommend! The best way to enjoy fish and chips is to take them down onto Saltdean beach or eat on a bench overlooking the sea.

Love this place, great range of fish etc, in different sizes for different appetites. Crispy batter and generous chip portions, and the prices just can’t be beaten locally. Be warned that they only take cash payment (or did the last time I went), so visit the cash machine up the road first if you need to!
