The Lobster Lounge

“We booked our table on Valentines Day for our son’s 19 birthday. It was pretty booked up obviously, but we did manage to get an early table at 16:30. We’d travelled down from Oxfordshire to see our son on his birthday and take him out, so wanted a special place to celebrate. We found the Lobster lounge tastefully quirky and very inviting. We were seated in a comfy corner away from the valentine diners. The gentleman who was front of house was friendly and enthusiastic and explained the menu. We were a little disappointed that my son and husband couldn’t have Porterhouse Steak to share or Lobster, which we were informed needed to have been ordered in advance. We went through the amazing choice of cocktails and drinks available and a great selection of tasty Tapas to excite the tastebuds, which didn’t disappoint. The boys decided on steaks and me being a veggie had the vegetarian sharing platter. The boys had Patatas bravas, Parmesan fries and wild mushrooms croquettes, which I too had on the platter, which I couldn’t manage on my own, so the boys were stealing bits off it. Oh wow, the food was amazing, such delicious food, great wine and cocktails with fantastic service in a lovely restaurant with a great atmosphere. We nearly had a cheaper meal than expected though, as they’d forgotten to put the wine on the bill and we hadn’t noticed, just thought it was extremely reasonable, luckily they’d noticed and rectified the bill, which actually was still very good considering how carefully everything had been executed. Thank you to the team for a wonderful experience. We’ll be back. Our son and his dad will be booking to try the Porterhouse steak next time.”

“Great place, staff were really friendly and could do enough, chatty, engaging and helpful. Really child friendly as well, with fish tanks. Food was immense, the small plates were great couldn’t fault any of the dishes, ALL superb. Went to the crab shack the night before and was sorely disappointed by the food, but this place was immense! Thoroughly recommended!”

“We came in the midst of a live band performance and the atmosphere was great. I love seafood and they absolutely nailed the octopus. It was tender packed with flavor. The patata bravas was impressive as it exceeded my expectations as it came as a crispy potato pavé. We enjoyed our dinner x”

“Our First visit to The Lobster Lounge for My Mums 84 th Birthday .She had never had Tapas Before .Our Waitress was great she gave us a very clear explanation about the Menu and how they food would be delivered and advice about how many dishes to order . The Food was exceptional .Every dish was packed with flavour .The Patatas Bravas recommended to us by our Waitress was the Star of the Show . The Lounge is small.quirky unpretentious and cosy Would definitely recommend . ”

“Food good. Especially recommend paras bra as.....to die for! Wine a bit pricey, but that's restaurants today. What we had was delicious and worth the prise, except for the baby squid. Deep fried hell. Greasy and tough. NOT recommended. But the rest, fabulous!”
