Whole Cornish Lobster

Lobsters are normally caught from spring through to late autumn and ‘rested’ in our sea tanks for at least 24-hours before despatch. We only buy lobsters from The South Western Approaches. Some lobsters are net caught so we are able to supply ‘jumbo’ lobsters for really hungry people or for display purposes. Live and cooked lobsters are currently available as well as lobster meat.

Usually you will find the smaller the lobster, the higher the price per kilo. This is because the smaller the lobster, the finer the meat fibres. Lobsters are freshly cooked to order within our factory. Seasonal supply and demand affect price dramatically so our price list can alter. Please note: all items are sold as approximate and pre-cooked weight, some cook loss will occur.

WE ARE PROUD TO BE MEMBERS OF THE NATIONAL LOBSTER HATCHERY BUY ONE SET ONE FREE SCHEME. WITH EVERY PURCHASE OF A WHOLE LOBSTER – W. HARVEY & SONS CONTRIBUTE TO THE LOBSTER HATCHERY SCHEME.
Buy one, set one free (BOSOF) is an amazing ‘win-win’ collaborative scheme that enables you to help raise and release baby lobsters back into our waters to help sustain fragile stocks. It originally started in restaurants with a small donation going to the NLH on every sale of lobster which enables us to raise and release a baby lobster back into our local waters, in place of those consumed, on the customer’s behalf. This  mutually beneficial scheme has been such a success that it has grown and is now being utilised by many wonderful restaurants and fishmongers as well as hotels, food producers, celebrity chefs, artists, jewellery brands, fashion designers and clothing brands and many more! Any aspect of ‘Lobster Love’ makes it possible to come on board with BOSOF and it really is a brilliant, public engaging and ‘feel good’ way to (literally) give back! Find out more here
