Fresh lobster delivered to your door - Lobster by post UK
Looking to order lobster by post in the UK? When it’s sourced properly and delivered quickly, it’s one of the easiest ways to enjoy exceptional seafood at home.
Ordering lobster by post in the UK might sound like a luxury, but when it’s done properly it’s one of the simplest ways to enjoy truly exceptional seafood at home.
At Rockfish, we work directly from the quayside in Brixham, one of Britain’s busiest fishing ports, selecting shellfish as it lands and preparing it the same day. That means when you order lobster by post, you’re getting something that’s been handled properly from the moment it comes ashore.
Why lobster works so well by post
Lobster is one of the best shellfish to order for home delivery, especially when it’s prepared properly before it leaves the fishmonger.
Our whole cooked Devon lobster is cooked for you, ready to enjoy either cold or gently reheated. It’s then carefully packed so it arrives in perfect condition - clean, fresh and ready for your kitchen.
This takes away any complexity and means you can focus on enjoying it rather than worrying about preparation.
When is the best time to order lobster?
Like all shellfish, lobster is best when it’s freshest. Our fresh shellfish lands Wednesday through to Thursday - when we see the best landings and the widest choice. You can find our frozen shellfish products online every day.

Lobster Piri Piri
There’s no harm in adding a little kick to a lobster in the form of Piri Piri. This makes a great light lunch main course or a substantial dinner starter. See lobster recipe >
Lobster salad with crispy bacon & ginger dressing
This is my favourite dressing of all time, once it’s made with some clever knife skills it keeps in the fridge for a few weeks. It’s great on grilled vegetables, fish, meat or a salad like this. Once you have carefully tamed all of the meat out of the lobster, break the shells up and pop them in a bag in the freezer for a stock, soup or broth. See lobster recipe >
