The same premium Gloucester taste at a fraction of the price—a smart deal for seafood lovers.

Looking for incredible North Atlantic flavor without the full price tag? Our "cull" lobsters have lost a claw due to natural ocean living, but they retain 100% of the sweet, succulent tail and body meat that makes New England lobster legendary. Hand-selected from our Gloucester docks, these single-claw lobsters give you top-tier quality, firm texture, and rich taste at a substantial discount—making them the ultimate budget-friendly feast for lobster rolls, stews, or a classic dinner.

Why You'll Love It

  • Unbeatable Value: Enjoy world-class North Atlantic lobster at a discounted price per pound just because of a missing claw.
  • 100% Top Quality Meat: Same cold-water sweetness, tender texture, and rich flavor as our two-claw lobsters.
  • Versatile Choice: Perfect for lobster rolls, chowders, bisques, or a satisfying crack-and-eat meal where meat yield matters most.
  • Dock-to-Door Freshness: Hand-selected by our fishmongers and shipped live in specialized insulated packaging with gel ice packs.

Live Lobsters are priced based on the MKT price. Prices are subject to change at any given time.

For a perfectly cooked lobster, we recommend using a thermometer to read the internal temperature. The cooking times can vary depending on the size of the lobster and/or your preferred cooking method. The internal temperature should be 135°F to 145°F (57°C to 63°C) in the thickest part of the tail to be fully cooked.  

For step by step instructions, please visit our articles for more information. 

How to cook a live lobster

Our live crustaceans (lobster and crabs) ship Priority Overnight to ensure maximum freshness and vitality upon delivery. Crustaceans are packed in insulated containers with gel ice packs and covered with damp salt paper to keep them cold and hydrated.

For lobster orders of 12 pieces or more, we ship them in dedicated heavy-duty styrofoam boxes featuring individual cardboard divider cells and a damp salt paper topper for safe transport.

Storage & Care: Upon arrival, transfer your live lobsters and/or crabs immediately to your refrigerator. Keep the original damp salt paper laid over top of them to retain moisture. Do not submerge them in fresh water or store them in airtight containers.

For the absolute best quality and safety, live seafood must be cooked on the same day you receive it.

Ordered lobster culls and surf clams direct. The ice pack that was packaged with the lobster and clams arrived partially melted and had a hole in it, which was a bit concerning. Thankfully, all the lobsters were still alive, extremely fresh, and absolutely delicious. Overall, a great experience with minor packaging issues.

lobsters arrived in perfect condition. they were EXCEPTIONALLY good. The product was better than expected. The only problem I had was cracking them since the crackers I ordered were not included.

I grew up in East Gloucester, and here in Florida where I retired, good New England Seafood is hard to find. Worked as stern man on my uncle's lobster boat and for the old Empire Fish Company as a kid. The culls and mackerel were excellent and a taste of home. I previously ordered steamers which were also very good. I shall return.
