"Real food" quickly changed seating options; an upright position and wipe-able/washable surface is necessary. So Dad and I researched and debated high chairs. We decided on the OXO Seedling and it is fantastic...see last week's post for some details.
But Dad and I like to get out of the house! While the old wooden restaurant high chairs are a great standby, we wanted something of our own that was easily portable. So the research began again and we landed on phil&teds lobster.
I spent weeks eyeing this chair until my aunt was in town and we stopped by Swaddle to droll over their inventory of everything baby related. Before I could make it to check out B's great aunt swooped in and made the purchase (hugs and kisses to Aunt Andi). We used it twice THAT DAY! It has quickly been added to the home departure list.

| Not one to be excluded from the fun. Cahaba Brewing has picnic tables perfect for the lobster. |
I would say we have successfully used the lobster at 70% of locations attempted, including - Cheesecake Factory, Cahaba Brewing, Red Zone Sports Bar, Beef O'Brady's, Slice, Five, Habaneros, Cocina Superior and Saw's Juke Joint. At all of these locations multiple people have approached us to ask what the chair was and where they could purchase.
Pros:
- Folds and includes a slim carrying bag (total weight is 4 lbs)
- Easy installation to compatible table
- Weight limit of 37 lbs
- Includes tray that is dishwasher safe and sanitary
- Safety straps/harness
- EXTREMELY sturdy
Cons:
- Restaurants like funky tables, it won't fit everywhere
- Seat is hand wash only and does have crevices
- Frame could use cushioning or head rest
