    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Perfect Anniversary Celebration We had the most wonderful anniversary dinner at The Potted Lobster, Abersoch on Saturday night. From the moment we arrived, everything was exactly as I had planned—a beautiful bouquet of flowers at the table and a chilled bottle of Cloudy Bay waiting as a surprise for my wife. It was a seamless and thoughtful touch that set the tone for a truly special evening. The service was exceptional, with the staff making us feel welcome and ensuring every detail was perfect. The food? Absolutely outstanding—fresh, beautifully cooked seafood that showcased the best of what The Potted Lobster is known for. Every dish was a delight, and the atmosphere was warm, elegant, and inviting. A huge thank you to the team for making our celebration so memorable. If you're looking for a top-class dining experience in Abersoch, this is the place to be. Highly recommend! 5 stars all the way! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    Delicious food. Very friendly service. Great atmosphere. It was time for Abersoch to have a fish restaurant like the “Potted lobster”.

    Wonderful food and really pleasant staff. We had potted lobster and scallops followed by cornish sole fish of the day. Really great meal for a special occasion..not the cheapest but worth a visit.
