  “We are currently spending a week down in Muddeford and have been loving everything Noisy Lobster! I don’t often leave reviews but I felt compelled to for this fab business. From the restaurant and fish & chip shack, to the bakery and coffee hut, they have all areas covered! The food quality is exceptional and we were particularly impressed with the attentiveness of the servers on a busy Saturday night in the restaurant. Already looking forward to coming back for my mum’s 60th birthday in September! Thank you all 🦞 🦀 🐟 ❤️”

  “⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a lovely experience at The Noisy Lobster. Very aesthetically pleasing. Superstar martini was 10 out of 10. The food was absolutely delicious - every dish was fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. The passion fruit tart with raspberry sorbert was perfectly sharp and sweet. A special mention has to go to Alice, who looked after us so well. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely made our visit feel special. Her service was outstanding and she’s a real credit to the team. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the sea views were simply phenomenal. The perfect setting for a great meal. We can’t wait to come back!”

  “⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ After the worst 5½-hour journey ever to visit family, we headed straight to The Noisy Lobster to meet everyone for dinner — having not even stopped on the way! So my first words to the poor person greeting us at the desk weren’t “Hello”… they were basically “Please, can we use your bathroom?!” 😂 Thankfully, things improved dramatically from there! The staff were so friendly and welcoming and the service throughout was excellent. We were seated by the window overlooking the sea, which was just amazing — what a gorgeous setting. 🌊 The cocktails were fabulous 🍸 and the food was absolutely delicious. I started with the lobster slider, followed by the monkfish & tiger prawns with Thai red bisque, courgette and summer peas — absolutely beautiful. 🦞🍤 After 5½ hours in the car, this was exactly the welcome to the coast we needed. Fabulous food, great cocktails, lovely staff and that wonderful sea view. A brilliant evening with family and somewhere we would very happily return to. ❤️”

  “Came here for lunch on our little beach day due to my love of seafood. Staff were very friendly and the place is very modern. The food was spectacular! Very glad that you can get 1 lobster slider too! Lobster is my favourite but I have a small appetite and this was the perfect portion for me! It was absolutely delicious and I cleared the plate! My only complaint would be that they offer you water when you arrive but don’t indicate that it isn’t free. I had a feeling it would have a charge when it was a glass bottle that was brought out but finding out it’s just under £5 was a shock! Maybe provide the option of tap? Otherwise fantastic from start to finish”

  “Absolutely amazing restaurant. The seafood, location, the sea view terrace, decor and service! Only lost a star as its a bit expensive, (cost £174 for 2 x drinks, 2 x starters and 2 x mains) especially the wines. Big markups, but Im sure they have high costs themselves..Dont let this stop you from treating yourselves however. It is definitely worth it. Everything we ordered was stand out. We ordered the special sangria cocktail, as you get a bit of bang out your buck and we weren't dissapointed. Strong and cold. The crab gazpacho was perfect for a hot evening on the terrace although the lobster bisque was a little lost in the tomato but it had a good amount of crab and was beautifully displayed. (Maybe just leave that out of the description? - not at all dissapointed however, absolutley loved it! ) Also, it was a bit of fun to pour it yourself. Mains we had a half a lobster which was meaty and perfectly cooked in a perfectly balanced garlic sauce, 3 scallops (not king, but beautifully sweet) and 3 fat tempura prawns with skin on fries, a side salad of rocket and tomato and hand made alioli 😋 The staff couldnt have been more friendly and efficient! They did really well in this heatwave with everyone asking for a terrace view and even kindly moved a few, including us, to accomodate though! Well done noisy lobster 🦞 👏 Thanks for very memorable evening. Deb & Ed”

  “Easily the best restaurant in the Christchurch area. The food is wonderful. Honestly the crab gazpacho (on the specials menu, if you see it, order it) is the best thing I have put in my mouth this year The service is exceptional. Despite it being a busy sunny Sunday on a bank holiday weekend, we received attentive yet unrushed warm friendly service throughout. Other nearby establishments should take note how great service turns a great meal into a fantastic experience *cough* thejetty *cough* The balcony location is fantastic with the glistening sea your backdrop to a fantastic dining experience”

  “Loved the restaurant. Great for seafood lovers. Not easy to find a restaurant along the coast ( hard to believe but true) serving lobster, clams, scallops, oysters, mussels and prawn. It was difficult to choose from the menu as I wanted to eat all of them. So I opted for tge noisy platter which had the lobster, prawn tempura and scallops plus oysters. My daughter who doesn't eat seafood settled for the clam spring roll ( she tried clam first time and liked it - it was nicely done) and linguine pasta. My husband got the steak which was nicely grilled and seasoned to taste. The sea view was also great and contributed to the overall experience.”

  “We ate here for the first time last night, it was a Mexican theme set meal. Absolutely delicious 👍 The ribs were spectacular, so tasty, so well cooked! All the food was excellent. The staff friendly and attentive. Like many have said "A lovely view to admire whilst feasting" The atmosphere was good too with just the right volume to the background music. Couldn't fault it at all. The prices were about right for the quality of food. My wife is vegetarian and the options are quite limited but it's called "The Noisy 🦞" not "The rowdy Carrot" so it was expected. We will definitely visit again soon”
