A note from the owner

When my parents took ownership of the then called Philadelphia Lobster & Fish back in 1998, I was your average worry-free middle schooler, not thinking much about what my future had in store for me. As I carried on through high school, then an undergraduate degree at Penn, then 13 years in New York cycling through corporate jobs in Finance and Tech, I watched my parents slowly and diligently build up a wonderful “mom-and-pop” small business on the Main Line.

During all of those years, I never would’ve imagined getting involved in the family business. Then the pandemic hit and I moved back to help the business “get through” what ended up being a two year chaotic blur. In 2022, I decided to take over the family business from my parents to continue serving this community the best seafood and produce there is to offer.

Over the coming years, I hope to bring a fresh and new perspective to the business, all while maintaining the same level of quality and service that my parents worked so hard to build. Thank you to all of our loyal customers for your continued support over the years! Onward!

-John Jr. (and John Sr.)
