We were in town last week and we saw this place while we were driving down the street. The reviews were very good so we decided to stop in and I must say, this was worth that and so much more. The owner came out and he is awesome. Where can you go and get real, delicious lobster and play on a golf simulator at the same time??? All of the dishes were above average and he prepared everything fresh and to order. Even the bread on the warm lobster roll had the right crunch. This place is definitely a must and we will be back when we come this way. You need to make a conscious effort to get by here and get the best lobster meals at the best prices anywhere!!! read more

Huge fan. My roll was absolutely fantastic. The bread was warm and covered with butter. The lobster was plied high and was very fresh. Prices are very reasonable. This is a very cool place to enjoy an amazing sandwich. Plenty of parking and the restroom was very clean. Service was excellent. Definitely coming back next time I am in Pensacola. read more

I always pass by this place with curiosity, but it's late and I'm always busy. So on Monday I was getting my tire fixed at Walmart and I was Yelping lol and saw this place. I had time so I decided to look at the menu and reviews, the food looked good. Bummer they're closed on Monday's. I decided to try it today, let me tell you I wasn't disappointed. The food is delicious! I enjoyed everything, no complaints. I will definitely visit again! read more

Smells fishy as soon as you walk in. The lobster was obviously previously frozen and rubbery. The owner is nice but the food is nothing like a real fresh good lobster roll. We were so hopeful and totally disappointed. read more

My daughter has lived in Pensacola for over three years and when we set up a lunch date, I asked her where she wanted to go. Well, she said she'd like to try somewhere new. Hmmm, ok, Yelp to the rescue. After doing some Yelp research, we settled on The Lobster Cage. I'm not sure what I was expecting but don't be fooled by the whole-in-the-wall, limited seating. If you are looking for a mom-and-pop restaurant, look no further. Although the menu is simple, the items are a unique blend of Thai and New England origins! The service was impeccable. It was run by one woman -the owner, who answered questions, took our order, cooked the meals and served us. Not only was it prepared quickly, but it all came out at the same time. AMAZING!!! Two of us got the Warm Lobster Roll with a side of potato salad. They said the lobster roll was delicious. We also had macaroni with lobster. I had the Lobster and Thai Infused Pasta. Three of us had to take some home with us, as the serving sizes were generous, and she did not skimp on the lobster. Very happy with our choice to dine here for lunch. *Dine in and Takeout available Hours Daily 11 am to 3 pm and 5 pm to 7:30 pm Closed on Mon read more

I went back to The Lobster Cage in Pensacola, FL for another visit yesterday, and it was once again fantastic. The place isn't fancy, but it's clean and comfortable, with a straightforward setup that works for me. It's family-owned, and you can tell they put a lot of effort into making it a great experience. It's counter-service, but the staff is super friendly and always ready to help with suggestions. I've had the lobster bisque, that's spot on, and everything I've had here is quite good. This trip I treated myself and got the ribeye and lobster with the Thai-infused pasta with rice noodles and a tasty Thai sauce. My honey had the Lobster with Thai-infused pasta, for the first time instead of usual lobster roll. We very much enjoyed those well prepared and wonderfully seasoned general portion dishes!! I am putting it in my hot rotation of Pensacola eateries. Bottom line: I've lived in New England, had great seafood meals from Bar Harbor, ME to Key West, FL to Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco so I'm picky about seafood, but The Lobster Cage is a winner. If you're in Pensacola and like lobster, it's a great spot to check out. I'll definitely be back. Hours (as of my visit on June 25, 2025): Tuesday-Sunday: 11 AM-3 PM, 5 PM-7:30 PM Check them out at thelobstercage.com or on their Facebook page for more info. read more

What a cute little spot. Not too fancy, which makes it comfy and fun. The owner makes it even more like a friendly, family place. Everyone inside (and it was full) was friendly, helped us pick what we should order, and all talked to us and each other from table to table. It was like being in a local "Cheers". We ordered a cold and a hot lobster roll. We also ordered the potato salad as recommended by ALL of the other customers and the owner. It was not a mistake! It was delicious. I gave to tell you, I'm a potato salad snob. I don't like anyone's potato salad aside from my mom's and my own. But this salad was really great! Hubby and I both liked the lobster rolls and were happy with the amount of lobster on each. The bread was perfection (so good) and the perfect combination with the lobster. There was a tv to watch, pics of the menu items posted and a nice manageable menu. The owner works alone. Which works well in the small spot. The wait was super short for our food and the prices were great!! We are used to paying so much more for lobster rolls! Well worth the price and a delicious meal. Tang (the super sweet owner) will absolutely be seeing us again!! Please pay attention to the hours!! She closes Briefly between lunch and dinner. Thanks for a great visit and a great meal Ms. Tang!! read more

The Lobster Cage is hands down my go-to spot for warm lobster rolls. The bread is so fresh it basically squeaks when you bite it, and the lobster? Absolute melt-in-your-mouth magic. Tried the Lobster Thai pasta too, and let's just say I didn't leave a single noodle behind. Service is always great--especially the super friendly woman behind the counter who makes you feel like you're part of the family (a well-fed family with really good taste). We've been here a bunch of times already, and every visit just makes me hungrier for the next. Next on my hit list: the chicken wings and lobster mac, which look like "must tries". read more

Upon entering you are greeted with a limited number of tables as well as a friendly hello from the owners. Service was fast and friendly. We did have to wait several minutes for a table to free up so I suggest grabbing one if any are open. The lobster roll had large amounts of delicious lobster with creamy mayo and fresh lemon ( they also serve hot lobster rolls as well). The roll was buttery and soft with a grilled outer layer. Potato salad was served on side which was well seasoned. Drink choices are canned soda along with other bottled beverages. One of my favorite lobster roll spots ! read more

I can't believe it took me this long to try The Lobster Cage! I've been missing out on the best lobster rolls I've had in a long, long time! I got the cold lobster roll which warms a bit in the hot split roll, and it was perfection. Tossed in only mayo, nothing else, the lobster tastes like full flavored, perfectly cooked, moist, lobster. Its a beautiful thing. And it was packed with meat. The lobster rolls we had in Boston were not nearly as good as these. My husband and son loved their warm rolls as well. And that bisque omg! I've never had bisque with so much lobster in my life. It was excellent! I also wanted to try the lobster Mac and cheese, and it was fine, but we were so stuffed we barely ate any. It was a spurge meal, but dang it was a great meal! The lady knows what she's doing! There are only 4 tables in this small place, but we were the only customers at 5:00. She's doing Door Dash business too. We'll definitely be back! omg! read more

Best lobster roll in town by far. Served on a Texas toast style bread soaked in butter. With a decent portion of lobster. Comes with a side of potato salad, coleslaw or chips. If you're a lobster lover like me, go for the double meat!!! read more

The Lobster Cage - Hot Lobster roll with Chips. Butter and lemon drizzle - Seafood Near Me - Pensacola, Florida

Stopped here on a road trip from Texas to Orlando, and I have to say we were highly impressed. Inside the restaurant is fairly small with limited seating. But it looks like most orders were to go. We ordered the warm lobster rolls, lobster bisque, lobster Mac and cheese, and the cheesecake for dessert. All the food was outstanding. There is nothing I could really do to improve it. We enjoyed it so much, that we ordered a second round of lobster rolls. And I'll say they do not skimp on the amount of lobster in any of the dishes. The staff was amazingly friendly and inviting. We absolutely loved this place and will be back on any future road trips. Highly recommend! read more

So delicious! I am worried about recommending this place! If more people like the place- then it will be less food for me.

This is a small little place that is super clean and open. You have owner operator there to great you and cater to your needs. So wonderful and personal service. It could be a wait when super busy, but well worth it. Lobster forward and well done!! It was delicious and left us craving more. Definitely a place to visit many, many times. Highly recommend 10/10 read more

Lobster roll is incredible! Made to order and very fair pricing! Would definitely go again.

AMAZING service, and food!! The people here are incredible and know what they are doing!

My husband and I love this place! The owners are so sweet and interactive. Today was our second visit, and we left very satisfied and super full. On our first visit, they had a promotional sale for only their lobster rolls, cold and hot. We got one of each, and they came with a bag of chips. Both rolls were fantastic! We ordered for lunchtime around noon, but I was pretty much craving for more when dinner time came. The rolls were fresh and hot, plus full of flavors. We tried a lobster roll at Disneyland in California, and the ones here were way better. For today's trip, we had dinner and ordered a whole bunch of food. Lobster mac and cheese, lobster and Thai pasta, lobster bisque and grilled cheese, and a berry crepe. All of the lobster dishes were amazing, especially the pasta! We did as for the pasta to be mild, as I prefer non-spicy food. There was just too much food for two adults and a 5-year-old, so we took most of everything to go, except for the crepe. We killed the crepes because one it would not be as good later and two, it was really good!! My daughter practically devoured most of it herself. Food: This place is definitely our go-to for lobster cravings. Several of our friends and neighbors have been here, and they've all enjoyed their experience. Location: It's in an older and smaller plaza, almost like a mom and pop shop, but it's nicely decorated inside. Parking is easy to get into and out of, depending on traffic on Old Palafox. Price: It's lobster. You can't expect crawfish or shrimp price at a lobster location. We thought the prices were very reasonable. $6.99 for crepes and lobster dishes starting at $16.99. The lobsters are imported from Boston and taste amazing! Definitely try this place out, if you haven't. If you have, give it another shot! read more

Where to begin. Staff were very sweet. Quaint atmosphere and small, which is good if you're not feeling peopley. FOOD!! Oh my. It's so good. I got the warm lobster roll and it was flavorful more than I expected. Maybe could have a touch more lemon or salt but that was on me. My husband got the lobster tom yum soup and the broth is packed with flavor. I'm not a coconut fan BUT that broth is something you want when you are sick or what reminds you of a nice warm hug in a bowl. It was really good. read more

Ok, I've eaten here 3 times. The people complaining about the fishy smell, that was something I noticed my first visit (the week they opened) but not since then. The good +++ This is an accurate warm buttery lobster roll as good or better than the ones I've had in Maine, and better than the other ones I've tried in Pensacola. +++ The rolls - very accurate rendition and they are having them baked locally. They toast them correctly and fresh for each order. They are slightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Portion size is correct as well. +++ Generous portion of lobster, and it's definitely real lobster meat with visible chunks of claw meat. +++ Interesting menu items like crepes and Thai pasta Could be improved -- While the cold roll is good, it does seem a little heavy on the mayo. Since they are prepared when you order, ask for less if you don't want too much. -- LOVE their potato salad, and they also offer coleslaw or potato chips. BUT I would like it if I could get a small serving of the Thai pasta or mac n cheese as the side. Recommendations !! Call ahead if you're doing pickup !! The warm buttery lobster roll really is epic, you must try it! The owners are friendly and I find them interesting. My second visit I called ahead and enjoyed my roll at a table in the store. It was late in the lunch cycle (around 2pm) but the store was spotless and there was not a trace of fishiness in the air. So whatever the problem was with the smell that first week, they've worked that out. read more

Awesome people run this place, a hole in the wall place with basic accommodations, but perfect if you just want a quick meal, prices are very reasonable, would've gave 5 stars if my lobster roll was hotter, it was luke warm but tasted very good. Will be back for sure. read more

Surprisingly good. better than the $40 Lobster Rolls I had in Orlando. Not as good as the ones I had in Maine. But, REAL good. an upgraded menu would be nice with better explanation of "hot" and "cold" mean. Great Lobster Roll. Very good potato salad. Just needs a small touch to completely dial this into a high end money making venue. Ms. Chef makes it happen. Love it. read more

First time eating here. I saw a picture of their Lobster Mac and Cheese on FB and decided I wanted to try it. They make to food on the fly once you order. When I entered the place, it's nice and clean with a few tables. I had called in thinking they needed to make ahead of time but she said to just come in. I placed my order and waited for a couple of minutes. I was checking out the menu and there's a couple of things I would like to try, next time. I took my order home and when I opened up, it was a large portion. It had nice chunks of lobster claw meat along with green onions, bacon bits, large bow tie pasta and a rich creamy cheese sauce. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted good. I thought it could use a little bit of some seafood seasoning, but it still worked well. The owners are very nice and friendly. I will definitely come back to try the pasta or a lobster roll next... read more
