Riddle & Finns | Meeting House Lane
Ask around in Brighton about lobster and you can be sure that the name ‘Riddle & Finns’ will come up. And quite rightly too, seeing as they run two very popular seafood restaurants, one in the lanes and one right on Brighton seafront. Sample lobster dishes include; half lobster salad with mango, green beans & citrus dressing, whole grilled lobster with either herb butter or Thermidor and a half or whole lobster featured on their fruits de mer platters.

Riddles on the Beach | Lobster Brighton
Both restaurants offer Sussex blue lobsters and they have recently started a new initiative called ‘Buy one set one free‘ where customers can pay a small amount of £1.75 to release a lobster back to the wild. The restaurant then matches this donation and donates it to supporting The National Lobster Hatchery in Padstow, Cornwall. Sustainable seafood at it’s finest!

English’s Lobster Brighton
Like a discerning gentleman, English’s just gets better with age. A Brighton institution, English’s is the oldest seafood restaurant in the city, with the Leigh-Jones family serving up locally caught fare since 1945. Passionate about working with the best suppliers on the south coast, most of the seafood comes from Newhaven and is landed fresh every morning. Their whole and half lobster offerings include Lobster Thermidor, Lobster Bearnaise and a chilled Coronation lobster, all of which come served with garlic chips. If you fancy pushing the boat out (sorry) why not try the Lobster plateau de fruits de mer (minimum two persons). *Image by English’s of Brighton
