Built in 1856 by the Craster family, “Robson's Smokehouse” is now the only smokehouse in Craster. James William Robson was the first to work in the smokehouse in 1890, but it was his son Luke who began smoking under the Robson name in 1906 .From then “Robson’s Smokehouse” passed through four generations and today is run by Neil Robson. His father, Alan, still keeps a keen eye on the business and v

isits the smokehouse every day. The traditional methods of smoking are still used today and the tradition has been passed on to yet another generation. Neil’s daughters, Olivia and Georgia, are as passionate about the tradition as their father, grandfather and great grandfather before them.

🦞 Craster Lobster — hauled fresh from Craster Harbour and on our specials board most days. It simply doesn’t get fresher than this.

🎣 We buy our lobster and crab directly from the fishermen at the harbour — just a stone’s throw from our door here in Craster. From the sea to your plate, it’s the true taste of our coastline.
