What a fantastic kind Gesture, for some People even gestures like this isn't enough & they'll moan instead of saying thank-you very much for such an offer. Hope you have a great Summer.
The Lobsterpot also feeling the impact the car park is having on people visiting. At least they are trying to make it better by helping with the car park fee! Just can’t make people happy anymore. I will be visiting Sunday anyway. Can’t wait 😊 🦞 🦀 😋
Suggest that the obnoxious individuals who are complaining about this completely voluntary act of goodwill by the Lobster Pot direct their ire towards Crown Estates.

The weather is looking fine this weekend, why not pop to the Lobster Pot to try one of the Ice Creams from the New Wall’s range!
Pistachio Magnum, Peach Magnum, Hazelnut and Chocolate Cornetto or a Strawberry Calippo.

We do both!
Such a shame that dog are not allowed inside. I often walk my little Cockapoo along there in all weathers and would love a coffee and scone, but would never leave her either outside or in my car alone, hence stick to dog friendly cafes.
Genuine question, Do you refund the parking fee if we visit you for food?
Happy Easter, don’t eat too much chocolate, make some room for a visit to the Lobster Pot for a delicious Crab Sandwich or a Scrumptious Scone 😋 ... See MoreSee Less

The car park and Lobster Pot were heaving yesterday. Doesn’t look like people are avoiding it. I agree car park prices are ridiculous.
Such a shame they have made the parking so expensive. We are regular visitors, multiple times per year, but not residents. Sadly the increased prices will surely stop people visiting as often. We didn't bother coming this week, where we would normally have.
High quality
A wide selection of dishes
We are famous for our Cream Teas as our unique scone recipe has remained the same since the business began. Local crab sandwiches and delicious freshly prepared chips are other favourites on our menu.
Probably one of the nicest scones we have ever eaten. Unusually a square shape, still slightly warm, very soft almost like a light and fluffy sponge cake. Lashings of cream and a good jam too. Proper strong leaf tea. and plenty of parking nearby.
Best salmon I've ever eaten! The people here were so lovely, quick and attentive service. I couldn't believe how fast the food came out. The attached shop is a great idea.
Fantastic place to go and eat. The view's are superb. Staff really welcoming.

Lovely place and location. Food was wonderful. I had a fresh crab salad which was wonderful. Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options.
one of a kind
Since 1952
The Lobster Pot Restaurant has been in the same family for over 70 years. We are situated next to the famous Portland Bill lighthouse in an outstanding location, on Dorset's World Heritage Jurassic Coast. This is just a short drive from Weymouth and only ten minutes away from the Olympic sailing venue at Portland Harbour.
