    A fun and very delicious dining experience! We loved the food and thought the concept of sharing dishes was very different and such a refreshing change to the norm. We were in Whitstable for the weekend from Hampshire and it's a shame you're not closer.......the staff were brilliant and enthusiastic too.....one day we hope to return.....Good luck to you all 😊🥂

    We loved all the food. Sharing plates is our favourite. The lobster and prawn aranchi was delicious. The buffalo mozzarella was really creamy and yummy and the chips with truffle and Parmesan are to die for.

    Fantastic food to celebrate our wedding anniversary and my wife's birthday with our family. Great service, superb wine selection and friendly service. Wine advice was helpful and the chef also came out with some of our food for a chat.We would highly recommend the Lazy Lobster for just drinks or food, well done to all of the staff. Nick.

    Seriously impressed with this place. Some of the nicest food I have had. Ever! Really glad we booked. Knocks socks off similar central London spots, and a lot cheaper. Especially with the 20% discount for February!
