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.

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.

Customers praised these live Maine lobsters for arriving fresh, lively, and on time. Many described them as "sweet," "tender," and "delicious." Delivery and customer service received high marks. However, one shopper noted the meat "lacked flavor" and was "a little tough," while another reported some arrived with bent backs causing mushy texture.

I purchased these for a dear friend's birthday. They arrived on time in great condition and I heard they were very delicious. Thank you!

Thank you so much, Denise! We are honoured you chose our lobsters for your friend's birthday. We are so glad they arrived on time and were enjoyed. We truly appreciate your support and hope to serve you again soon!

The price was right, they arrived overnight on the day we requested, and the lobsters were lively and kicking. We steamed them up as we always do (I'm originally from New England). But once they were cooked, they were a little tough (even though they were smaller sized) and the meat lacked flavor. Absent was that wonderful, sweet lobster flavor we hope to enjoy. They were good, but not great.

Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback, Alwyn. We are glad your lobsters arrived on time and lively, but we are genuinely sorry they did not deliver the tenderness and sweet flavour you were looking forward to. We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as feedback like yours helps us continue improving. We hope to have the chance to provide you with the exceptional lobster experience you expected on your next order.

Most of them were fresh, but two of them had a bent back, so when I boiled them, the flesh became mushy and inedible. The rest were very tasty. Overall, I was satisfied.

As an expatriate of New England (Massachusetts and Maine) and an avid preparer & eater of fresh seafood all my life, I can categorically state that the shipment of lobsters and steamers we received last week from Intershell was the best we've ever had since I moved to the midwest 30 years or more ago. The lobsters were 2 1/2 pounders. They were lively, sweet, tender, and delicious. And despite their large size, the clams were clean (clear of grit) and *most importantly* tender and sweet. The seafood was very well packaged, arrived on time and, while not inexpensive, the price was competitive. The best seafood dinner we've had in years! We will definitely be ordering from you again!

I had you ship 12 lobsters to Texas to my son, we are from Newburyport Massachusetts. I cannot believe how they showed up there so fresh and alive on schedule. I cannot say enough good things about ordering from you. I highly recommend anyone to order from you. I love the fact that you called me after I placed the order to make sure about everything. The woman in the office was incredible. If I could give this 10 stars, I would thank you very much and I will be ordering from you again. -Joe

I recently ordered lobstas as a gift for my sistas in Southern California. We are all Boston transplants, I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. Intershell was wonderful at ensuring that the live lobstas arrived on time (Saturday delivery) and very fresh and lively! Many thanks to Rose at Intershell for addressing my questions and concerns regarding the lobstas, shipping, cooking pot size, and a host of other questions. My greatest concern is what to try next. Probably for me, it will be the Ipswitch clams and bellies. My older sista is clamoring for steamer clams! Art Z San Jose, CA
