Fresh Live Mussels are rope-grown in the clear waters off the Lyme Bay coast, where strong tides and clean conditions produce naturally plump, sweet mussels. Sustainably farmed and delivered live, they’re ready to cook and enjoy at their best.

Why it’s special: Grown on suspended ropes in open coastal waters, these mussels feed naturally on plankton and require no additives or dredging. This gentle farming method protects the seabed and supports a thriving marine environment while producing exceptional quality mussels.

Quality & versatility: With their clean flavour and tender texture, these mussels are a true British favourite. Quick to cook and high in protein, they’re ideal for everything from light lunches to special occasion dishes.

Serving inspiration: Steam gently with white wine, garlic, and parsley for a classic moules marinière, or cook with chilli, ginger, and coconut milk for a fragrant Asian-style broth.

Your order is vacuum-packed and labelled, then carefully packed in a recyclable cardboard box with eco-friendly wool insulation and frozen gel packs to keep it chilled during delivery.

Hamiltons Fish

Hamilton’s fish is by far the freshest I’ve tasted since my childhood (long time ago) when we lived on the South coast and bought it from the fishermen on the beach. Absolutely delicious as always and a lot of it didn’t get as far as the freezer!

I have been using Hamiltons fish for years fish as there service is first class.

William
Hamiltons Fish

As before, my recent order from Hamiltons was perfection! The (recyclable) insulated packaging ensures that the fish arrives perfectly chilled, and the 2-portion vacuum packs mean that I can pop everything straight into the freezer with no handling or re-bagging necessary. Preparing and enjoying the freshest of fish has never been easier! Have just recommended your excellent service to two more friends.

Fresh Handpicked Dressed Crab

Have tried many on line fishmongers but my god, hands down this one is the absolute best. The skate wings we ordered were so fresh and delicious. We went for the 500g and they were huge! Nevertheless we ate one each with a few chips and capers. Will definitely become a regular customer and I cannot recommend enough. Thank you!
