Richard's Fresh Seafood

Our Fishmart is being renovated and upgraded for 2011. Although we will keep the rustic ‘digs’ of our small, seaside market, we will be adding new equipment and a little more room for our customers to browse. Ultimately, things will look familiar – familiar but better.

As always, we will continue to offer fresh lobster from our wharf, clams from eastern PEI, mussels from the North Shore and the list goes on and on. We pride ourselves on great seafood.

We will also continue to ship our fresh, PEI lobster. And we can assure you that all lobster from Richard’s Fresh Seafood will be fresh. First, our lobster is sourced directly from the fishermen who dock only steps from our Fishmart door. Second, we store the lobster in tanks with saltwater pumped directly from the Gulf. And lastly, our lobsters are shipped in specially designed containers to keep them cool and moist during transport. Ultimately, you can expect only the best live, local, PEI lobster, shipped to you anywhere in Canada*. However, don’t wait. The lobster season is short and shipping is only available from June to September.

While many love live lobster, we understand that cooking lobster can be a little intimidating. If you wish, leave the cooking to us, at no charge. Shipped, cooked lobster keeps all the sweet, delicate flavour of live lobster.

*We have found the most economical and direct means of transport is via Air Canada. Therefore, we ask that all customers be available to pick-up their lobster orders directly from Air Canada Cargo at their local airport.
