Sustainable Sourcing

All of our lobster is sourced off the coast of Maine and Canada using sustainable methods including:

minimum and maximum size restrictions for lobsters
v-notching female egg-bearing lobsters to ensure growth of the population
juvenile vents in lobster traps so small lobsters can come and go
limiting the number of lobster licenses given out and the number of traps per fishermen

Shipping

Includes FREE overnight shipping! Our live lobsters ship directly from Portland Pier with frozen gel packs to keep them cool. Frozen items cannot be shipped in the same box as live lobsters, as the lobsters can't be shipped with dry ice, so any additional seafood products you order will be shipped separately from Saco, Maine.

A NOTE ABOUT SHIPPING: Due to heightened delivery volume and unexpected weather delays, we recommend placing your order for delivery at least 2-3 days before your occasion to ensure an on-time arrival. Please note, frozen items will need to thaw upon arrival.

This product ships carbon neutral from Maine to all 50 states. We work with UPS to offset 100% of greenhouse gas emissions associated with our shipments by supporting environmental products that reduce carbon and methane in our atmosphere.

We ship overnight to ensure your seafood arrives 1 day after shipping. We offer FREE SHIPPING on all orders, and do not charge an extra fee for Saturday delivery. You will be asked to select your delivery date at checkout. Delivery is available Tuesday through Saturday in most areas. If selecting a Saturday, you will be asked to check your zip code at checkout to confirm availability. Tracking information will be emailed to you when your order ships.

Lobster Order

Sam
I already sent a review but I will send one here. The lobsters arrived at my brother's home in Montana alive. He cooked them the same night and they were delicious. His guests had never had lobster and my brother had to give them a course in lobster eating. Not only did they enjoy the lobster my brother had alot of fun teaching his guests. He said he had such a great time and had never laughed so much. Good food, good friends and laughter. What more could you ask for. And Sam thank you so much for kindness and help ordering. Than you do much. Mary

Starting 2025 right!

I had 4 lobsters shipped to Reno NV for New Year’s Dinner and they did not disappoint. Lobsters arrived on promised day, all alive. The meat was tender and sweet and I would definitely order again.

Great experience!!

We had lobsters shipped to Florida to some friends on very short notice and they arrived on time. We were able to track the shipment in real time. Would highly recommend Luke’s!

FAQs

Did you say LIVE Lobster?

Seriously. Do you deliver LIVE lobster?

Seriously, we do. They’ll arrive fresh from Portland Pier, safe and sound on your doorstep.

How should I store my live lobsters before I cook them?

Refrigerate live lobsters as soon as they arrive! You can put your package directly into your refrigerator, if space allows or transfer them to a lidded pot to store in your fridge. Either way, keep those lobsters cold and cook them within 24 hours! Not sure how to cook live lobster? Check out our instructional video for How to Steam a Lobster.

When will my order arrive?

You will choose your order’s arrival date at checkout from a calendar of available delivery dates, up to 4 weeks in advance! The earliest arrival date is generally two days from when you place your order and delivery is generally available Tuesday through Saturday. Your order may arrive as late as 9PM on the date you select, so plan accordingly! For live lobsters, order for the date of your event or the day before.

Where do you ship?

We are not able to ship live lobsters to Hawaii due to local regulations, but all other products are available, but we ship to all other states (and DC)! We are not able to ship to Puerto Rico or internationally at this time.

What should I make with my seafood?

Holy mackerel, there are endless possibilities! Visit our recipe page for some ideas from us. Be sure to tag us in your posts @LukesLobster.
