Sustainability & Sourcing

At The Lobster Pot, we believe that exceptional seafood comes from responsible sourcing and a deep respect for the ocean. Our commitment to sustainability is at the heart of everything we do.

Local Sourcing

We work directly with local Anglesey fishermen who use sustainable fishing methods. Our daily catch comes from the pristine waters surrounding the island, ensuring not only freshness but also minimal environmental impact. By supporting local fishermen, we help sustain the fishing communities that have been part of Anglesey's heritage for generations.

Sustainable Practices

We follow sustainable seafood guidelines and only serve species that are in season and abundant. Our menu changes with the seasons, reflecting what's naturally available and at its best. We avoid overfished species and support fishing methods that protect marine ecosystems.

  • We only serve seafood from sustainable sources
  • We respect minimum size limits and seasonal restrictions
  • We support line-caught and pot-caught methods
  • We avoid species that are overfished or endangered

Our Suppliers

We're proud to work with local suppliers who share our values. From the fishermen who bring us the daily catch to the farmers who provide our vegetables, we build long-term relationships based on trust and mutual respect. These partnerships ensure quality and support the local economy.

Our seafood is delivered fresh daily, often within hours of being caught. This not only ensures the best flavour but also reduces waste and supports sustainable fishing practices.

Reducing Waste

We're committed to minimising waste in our kitchen. We use every part of the fish where possible, create stocks from shells and bones, and compost organic waste. Our portion sizes are designed to be satisfying without being excessive, and we encourage guests to take leftovers home.

Looking to the Future

Sustainability is an ongoing journey. We continuously review our practices, seek out new sustainable suppliers, and educate ourselves about the latest developments in marine conservation. Our goal is to serve exceptional seafood while protecting the oceans for future generations.
