The Lobster Pot in Liverpool

Called in here about 16.15 23.03.24 but apparently only doing on line orders and advance orders onĺy, we're not taking any new orders ,and see you are charging 1.50 for a can ,considering they are £10 a case of 24 at costco with vat .so people work it out

Decent fare for a Saturday night. Staff served quickly as they could considering the mostly drunken clientele. I enjoyed my salt and pepper chips. My brothers southern fried chicken was very dry and was perhaps under the heat lamp for too long.

Chips hard chicken burgers was like you could use it as a front door chicken left out the only think that is but there in cans and expensive I do not recommend

No saveloys... that's it 1 star start selling them and It will be 5

Didn’t have most of what was on menu so ordered fish and chips, the chips were hard , not cooked properly second bad experience this week will not be going back

Had a lovely meat potato and chips

Chicken kebab was disgusting. Its was nothing like a chicken kebab more like pulled pork I was sick after eating it.

One of my favourite chippies, I visit every time I come back to Liverpool.

Great staff! I've always loved this restaurant but now it taste like they're using old (reused) oil. :/

Worst chicken kebab I've ever tasted

Had bad experience today girl overflowed the paper cup I asked for with tea when picked up paper cup and tea over flowed and burnt my hand asked girl for water and tissue because my hand was stinging with the burn on my hand I sat down ate my food had to poor whole bottle off my water over the burn on my hand the girl or man never even came Iver to see how I was just carried on serving customers on interested in making money not good customers service or caring for customers when I was leaving lobsterpot chippy the girl or mand never even asked me how I was or how my burn on my hand was they were not bothered on interested in serving more customers and. Making money won't be going there ever again my hand still sting with the burn on my hand hand customers service is disgusting in lobsterpot ???

Used to be a very nice place and good food and now the complete opposite

Absolutely disgusting, I ordered a small fish chips mushy peas, and a can of Rio, it come to £10.60, the fish was rock hard, Like i t had been there all day , the chips was the same, they had been reheated, 🤮 my friend got a kabab the pita was that hard she could of flung it like a frisbee, never again lobster 🦞 pot

Gets busy late on with drunks but the food is nice 😋

Really nice fresh food, albeit a bit pricey.

I recently dined at this fish and chips restaurant, and unfortunately, I was highly disappointed with the service. The employees seemed disinterested and their behavior towards customers was rather harsh. It felt like they had no enthusiasm for their work, which negatively impacted the overall dining experience. I hope the management can address these issues to improve the quality of service.

I recently dined here with my wife and I have to say it was quite a disappointing experience. The food leaves a lot to be desired. Not only was it unremarkable, but the lack of any sauce prescribed or provided made it even more outdated. Fish and chips are usually enhanced with a good sauce, but this was completely lacking here. The service was another disappointment. We waited a very long time for our food, which tested our patience. It is important for a restaurant to provide prompt service to its patrons. To make matters worse, one of the service members was a little rude when dealing with us, giving us a poor impression of the facility. No cutleries were provided and when asked a couple of forks were given which was of cheap quality. All in all, this was not a pleasant visit, and I don’t see myself coming back to this restaurant.

This chippy is just delicious, everything I have had from here has been tasty and fresh 😋

Ended up here end of the night and they gave us a portion of chips on the house. Lovely staff even at 3am similes all around

Fresh, tasty fish and chips and very good value. Also friendly staff. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed an evening meal here in the beer garden. The service was great, we ordered from our table and the drinks on the food order arrived very quickly. The food itself was quite nice, just typical pub food but nothing to complain about at all. The staff where helpful and attentive. Overall would recommend for a pub lunch etc

Fantastic good and crispy fisk and chips ,as always.

Was good food and very handy location in city centre. Also very reasonably priced.xx

We came here yesterday my partner had fish and chips and mushy peas and I had chicken kebab both meals absolutely disgusting and over 20 pounds the place should be closed down my partner has bin very ill coz 9f the food

Not enough staff Qued for over 40 mins not very friendly

Very handy if staying Hanover Street. Good portions. Nice fish.

Best chips I've ever had and the staff were so lovely

It's 26 years since I last ordered " Meat & potato pie, chips and gravy" at The Lobster Pot. I wasn't disappointed today! Thanks for the delicious reminder of my days here as a student in the '90's. 😁

This used to be the best chippie in Liverpool, however its changed staff and the service has seriously gone downhill. I've just visited and the battered burger and chips was really cold and obviously warmed up from the day before. Absolutely gross.

Food was good however I payed £15 for a large fish, a bottle of coke and curry sauce. And they forgot the curry sauce

MY hubby always loved the lobster pot and would eat there before going anywhere else over the years but not any more. We went last Saturday for the very last time. We payed over £20 for the absolute worse fish and chips we have ever tasted ......one large and one small plus one sausage. The upstairs seating area which was always pleasant enough to sit and eat was closed so we had to sit outside at two of the dirtiest tables I have ever seen at any outdoor seating areas, they were absolutely filthy with fish and chip boxes on the tables and the floor just left DESPITE the chip shop being empty when it used to be busy so the staff should of cleaned the area for other customers. So safe to say we will never eat here again and looking at some reviews on TripAdvisor neither will lots of other people...................SHAME ON YOU LOBSTER POT IT'S YOUR OWN DOING! hubby

Fish had hard batter and little fish inside.could not taste the fish and cost 20 pounds for2. Would not go again wish we had tried somewhere else

Menu 6 screens doesn't tell much. Ordered burger thinking I was getting the one on the hot counter got a fresh instead not what I wanted or was told I'd get

Popped in saturday night after a few beers. Ordered a large fish and chips, peas and gravy. Firstly i was given the little dried up piece of fish from the cabinet, I'd had a couple of beers but i still know the difference between a small a large fish. Secondly i was charged 15 quid. Something fishy going on here !!

Pretty sure I picked up food poisoning here. Items were cold and weren't refired. Within 24 hours I've since been on couch for 3 days. This was the only thing that was different.

There is a wide range of options, the service is ok.

Chips and peas were very good but the fish wasn't great at all. The batter was tough and dark and fish was very thin and tasteless. Will go again though as it's a Liverpool institution!

Pure mush . You need to have a lot drink on board to enjoy this place.

Brought 4 different items of food all tasteless gone really bad since it got taken over very poor food chicken kebab no taste 2x bbq chicken no taste chicken burgers chip no taste and sweet and sour chicken

I bought 2 large kebabs on Saturday and I'm sorry that I did it wasn't what I asked for I asked for 2 large sheash kebab instead I got chunky bits of meat that was cold rock hard pitta bread hardly any salad my savoury cake was freezing and the curry was way to thick I spent £23 and it went in the bin as it was uneaten I used to love the Lobster pot I don't buy out very often as I can't afford to so that was a rear treat so it so disappointing I tried calling them to let them know but the phone didn't work I don't think I will be buying from them anymore

Great fish and chips but no chicken?

Rock hard chicken burger and bun very disappointed. How can you charge for food you cant eat/bite. The chips and curry very good.

It's pretty basic stuff and while it's not terrible, it's not fantastic either. It's edible but nothing special. Their prices seem to have increased substantially while the low quality has stayed the same. Poor value for money!

Sorry for a low score but the BBQ chicken was like a lot of batter and a small portion of chicken with no flavour or taste .. you really need to review your ingredients

Love the food here at the end of the night. Always spot on. Aways get a sausage dinner and ask for lots of onions

Worst chicken kebab I’ve ever tasted in my life dry and spicy it was vile and salt and pepper chips where disgusting ripped me off as well and staffs attitude is appalling won’t go here again

A reasonable portion of fish and chips for a reasonable price. In addition there is seating outside and a range of food, in clouding pies, sausages and kebabs.

I have always gone to the lobster pot since I was a teenager when I was in town. Best chippy around!!!

Possibly the worst food iv ever had. Never again

I've just had the worst Kebab I've ever had in my life. I asked for 3 Mixed Kebabs: they did put no salad at all, only one kind of meat and not even the pita bread!!! Only meat in a plastic box. It's fine if they don't have stock but say it before because we spent the money in 3 kebabs and have not kebab!!! Only meat in a box. Really bad. Also the waitress was not helpful and understanding at all. It was a really bad experience.

FALSE ADVERTISING. They do not sell lobster! Also the scallops are not scallops, they're mashed potato. Lobster Pot is the worst thing about Liverpool, possibly the worst thing about the north.

Ordered for three, cheeseburger, donner kebab and a battered haggis, all with chips and some peas and curry sauce on the side. Took a while to arrive, but still just within the estimate provided when ordering and the food was hot. Everything was superb, with the chips being amongst the nicest I've ever had from a chippie. Highly recommended!

Possibly the worst chippy ive ever had in my entire life, barely any chips and they were bland, fish was horrible, curry sauce is so thick i could probably walk on it like Jesus Christ, terrible food will never be going back.

Salt and pepper chicken was a total let down. It looked so tasty sitting in the heated tray packed with chicken and steaming hot but actually its cold and i never found one bit of chicken in it. l told guy it was really cold and he said "thats how we serve it" if thats the case why do they keep the metal tray in a heated display cabinet. This was not the one i was served from, that one had obviously been sitting on a shelf behind the counter for sometime.

Very good staff! They take good care of every customer

Fish was like a leather soul not a nice crispy cod won't be going back

Chips were alright, but the curry sauce was like water. Vile

Banging chips 👌🏻. I recommend this place.

Brilliant food amazing staff good price

We visited the Lobster Pot on the Saturday 19th February in the evening. Before we were served, we asked the staff if they had chicken kebab ready and was told told to join the very long queue. After a long wait, we eventually got to the counter only to be told the chicken kebab wasn’t cooked. When we tried to challenge why we were not told when we asked the staff behind the counter responded in a very abrupt manner. This was totally unacceptable and I would not visit this place again. The staff could benefit from attending a customer service skills course.

Everything we bought was overcooked sweet sour chicken was rank.

Went there today salt and pepper chicken was horrible the food isn’t fresh the can of coke was nice like dats abar it

Lovely food Friendly staff Great price's and selection of food

The best chips in Liverpool 🤩 great staff too!

Lobby pot is great for afternoon or late at night after a binge.

Staff are always so welcoming and friendly / helpful and the food is always good

In Liverpool for the weekend and been to both Lobster Pots. Staff are friendly and the food is unreal! 🤤 Best Battered sausage and chips in town for sure. Check this place out

Best fish and chips in the UK and the world

Battered haggis in here is very nice but you must try their salt n pepper chips ,as good as any Chinese

Great proper chips in central Liverpool 👌. Service very slow even with out a rush on. Maybe I was just unlucky.

Ordered via Uber Eats. The items there have no options whatsoever to choose from. Just the names and pictures of the meals. Oh well, we can't choose but it can't be that bad, right? I mean they look awesome in the pictures. Oh boy, were we wrong. The food arrived with zero sauces (didn't even add ketchup, look at that horrific attached photo!!!), so I called the restaurant to ask about what I thought was a mistake, only to find the most unprofessional staff. First he was blaming me for not writing him an essay about how I wanted my food and what exact sauces I like (seriously there is no options to tick or remove, you have to write everything manually). Then started blaming Uber Eats for the design of the restaurant page (lol). No, sorry, sending food with no sauces is inexcusable, and I feel robbed of my time and money. Plenty of other great restaurants in Liverpool to choose from, so to anyone reading this, please stay away!

Not as good as previous visits. Lacking In staff and choice of food. Portion size also reduced. What was purchased was very good.

Never seen the curry sauce and mushy peas get poured all over the fish and chips before. Opened the box to find a soggy mess. Bit weird. Mainly came for the deep fried mars bar so was disappointed to find out they had none.

I really miss eating their 😔💔 I was in Liverpool in 2014 and this was my favorite restaurant

It is an excellent place to takeaway 😀.

The nicest chippy in liverpool town centre, chips are nice

If you like scabby donner meat and ridiculous queues

Busy chip shop but dealt with the post pub crowd well and quickly. Plenty of staff, food hot and well cooked

I got a steak pie dinner, well I promise I will NEVER eat from the Lobster Pot EVER again. Pie was OFF, it stunk as soon as I cut it in half. my chippy dinner was an absolute shambles. The service wasnt much better TBH

Always have loved this chippy!!!

Good quality basic food at reasonable prices.

Had fish & chips from here the fish definitely wasn't fresh it resembled cheap battered fish from one of the discount stores the seagulls enjoyed it that's all it was fit for. Only gave it one star coz I had to rate it but I'd say its a Zero star. I don't recommend this place at all.

Terrible chip shop . Asked for large chips and was given a tiny bowl with curry sauce and they charged just over £3 !!!! Rubbish

My twin brother Stephen and I were pub hopping down Ranelagh Street and dropped into this Lobster Pot and enjoyed a portion of chips and gravy sat outside in the Spring sunshine. Noticed there's been a few negative reviews posted before the 3rd and final lockdown but all I can say is our visit was good ,meals were really good, tasty and filling ,something quick and unpretentious to put a lining on our tummy's to help soak up the beer we drunk and planned to drink.This Lobster Pot is easy to locate along Ranelagh Street, a street and area teeming with pubs, bars, fast food outlets and restaurants and is most definitely well worth checking out.

Ordered some salt and pepper chicken and some wings after work, waited until I got home to open it up, the wings where solid as rock must of been there at least a couple of days and the salt and pepper chicken was in a brown sloppy sauce with the consistency of a water gravy, tasted like they had just thrown lots of five spice seasoning on it. It was inedible never ever would I waste my money in this place it had always seemed busy when I passed so i assumed it would be nice food I assumed wrong! Don’t waste your money

Amazing food served by lovely people at a great price. Thank you Lobster pot

Charging too much for Sausage chips and curry £4-50 other chip shops only chage £3-50

Absolutely disgusting I ordered the salt and pepper chicken it came in a diarrhoea looking and smelling sauce do not go here people don’t know there doing

We loved the food and the service, would go back any time! The fish was lovely and the chips weren't greasy as you'd find in some places. Absolutely recommend

Great service, all freshly prepared. 👊

Made a visit last night after a cold walk around the city to see the lights.We came to this place a couple of years back and we thought for old times sake we would give it another go.Wow..(not in a positive way) We orded our food and drove only 2 miles to eat it.My daughters stake pie dinner I'm sorry to say was terrible, to the point her pie filling was stone cold and you could see the filling is basics, it was 8pm in the evening, everything should be hot!! Very very disappointed and we are no foodies, but we don't want people to get sickVery disappointed will never return to this place again.

Love going to Liverpool chips with curry sauce very nice!

Patatas fritas duras, rebozado de pescado El pescado duro por dentro era una papilla, la carne de kebab era buena, pero como la mitad del grupo pidió pescado y patatas fritas, realmente arruinó la noche, tbh mirando en el armario de comida había vieiras quemadas, salchichas rebozadas quemadas por qué ordené

Large fish and chips with gravy to share with the lady in your life and an inside table too perfect

Plenty of staff quick service quality produce

Good value for money good food to

To expensive one fish and two scallops Seven Pounds will not be going back

Boss chippy a few beers savoury cake battered sausage chips barbecued sauce game over best chippy in Liverpool

I was at ranIeaghs next door not at the chippy

Saltando de pub en parte de la ciudad y mi hermano gemelo Stephen y yo decidimos pasar por The Lobster Pot (Ranelagh Street) para tomar una porción rápida de papas fritas y, como en todas las demás visitas, disfrutamos mucho de nuestra comida chippy.Llegamos aquí un sábado por la noche, obtuvimos una gran porción de papas fritas en curry, las papas fritas eran excelentes, el curry estaba absolutamente delicioso, desafortunadamente todos los asientos fuera del chippy estaban ocupados, pero no importa, las papas fritas eran fabulosas y era justo lo que necesitábamos , un bocadillo rápido y sabroso en un gran chippy.Fácil de ubicar a lo largo de Ranelagh Street, definitivamente vale la pena visitarlo si se encuentra en la zona.
