Lobster Parlour Pot

Lobster Parlour Pots

After enduring decades of winter storms and damage to “any old” Lobster Pots we decided to start making our own in 2014.  Monteum manufacture durable plastic Lobster Parlour Pots, the famous “George Hurst” type, which which we also sell on the wholesale market.

Monteum’s Lobster Parlour Pots are more durable and out preform others on the market because they are made of plastic and rubber which has many advantages over the steel lobster pots for sale elsewhere:

  • Plastic pots do not rust.
  • Plastic pots tend to give and recover to their original shape without damage in just a few minutes after being jammed in a rock. Whereas a steel pot is normally bent for life.
  • Plastic pots are less likely to get snapped off a backline.
  • Plastic pots always land right-side up on the seabed due to the way water runs out of the drill holes in the pipe when aboard.
  • A stack of plastic pots has a little “give” making them more stable on deck in unfavourable weather conditions.

A standard plastic Parlour Pot measures approximately 30″ x 18″, has an 8″ black plastic entrance and weights 18.5kg. All our pots are made from scratch by hand in Sussex and all pots are made to order.

Should you wish, an escape hatch can be included in the manufacturing of the lobster parlour pots at no additional cost to allow for the release of any juveniles.

Our Lobster Parlour Pots are priced as per the list below.

I have been meaning to visit this place for years and never seemed to get around to it. The produce that is on offer is such good quality and so fresh and all at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend this place as it will be very hard to beat for your fish requirements 🐟 🐠 🎣 🐡

Just landed from Australia and headed straight for some whelks. A friendly staff member served us and we sat outside and enjoyed our food. Spot on seafood is what I’ve missed ! I wasn’t disappointed 👍👍👍👍

Was looking for a Shellfish treat for a significant Birthday last weekend, something you'd think would be easy to find in Brighton... it wasn't!! But finally came across these guys who said on the phone they could do it, but wouldn't give me a price or let me pay them upfront... but promised me it'd be ready to collect at 12:45 on a Sunday... Hoping for the best, I turned up at the specified time, to find this STUNNING platter waiting for me on ice. This was a two person platter and they charged just £60 for it. It was CRAMMED with the freshest tasting Shellfish including 4 Oysters, 8 Crevettes and a whole Lobster. It was amazing at the time, and the stock I made from the scraps was just as incredible. I HIGHLY recommend using these guys for any special occasions or just a Shellfish treat!! Tip to the team: You need to market yourselves more. This food was SOO good, there's 000's of people in town who'd pay for this....if only they knew you offered it!! Thank you 🙏

Freshest fish ever, some still twitching! Great range of fish for you to try something new each time you go! Wouldn’t go anywhere else and am so spoiled that I can’t eat supermarket fish anymore. Great prices too, they’ll also clean and gut the fish for you Only downside (not their land I’m sure) is the massive potholes outside the shop. Be careful driving in when it’s wet as they fill with water hiding how deep and rocky they are. The shop is great however and never been disappointed!

They have been doing special offer on 3 lobster, great sizes and fantastic price per kg. Decent selection of frozen king prawns in the freezer. I have used this shop occasionally in the last 16 years, they used to be very expensive and lack of customer service. Now they have improved significantly throughout the years, prices are more in line with the one in Hove Lagoon and other competitors, and now we are getting more smile and help from the store staff. And this is the only fishmonger open on Sunday till 1pm in the area.
