The Lobster Pot Restaurant - Kennington

For more than 21 years, The Lobster Pot in Kennington has been serving proper French food to their loyal South London regulars. The restaurant is well known for its kitsch nautical décor so it’s no surprise that fish and seafood features heavily on the menu. It’s all hand-picked at Billingsgate Market to ensure that only the freshest fish swims your way. Popular dishes include pan-fried fillet of grouper with Cajun spices and white butter sauce; traditional bouillabaisse; and grilled tiger prawns with garlic butter. There are meat and vegetarian options too and the pancakes for dessert are not to be missed. The 8 course surprise menu at £49.50 is a winner. The Lobster Pot’s friendly staff and excellent French wine list make it ideal for a laid-back dinner with friends.
