A vehicle seat includes a load sensor that is configured to measure a load applied from an occupant and a seat cushion frame that includes a right side frame and a left side frame. The load sensor is provided at a front part of one of the right and left side frames. A front end section of the one side frame more frontward than a shaft center of the rod of the load sensor includes a tapered-shape section. And an upper flange and a lower flange are formed at an upper edge and a lower edge of the tapered-shape section, respectively, the upper flange and the lower flange extending inward toward a center of the vehicle seat.
