Frequently Asked Questions

Is your crab fresh or frozen?

Our dressed crab is always delivered fresh and has never been frozen or pasteurised. We prepare each crab by hand, using only the finest British brown crab meat and white claw meat, packed with care for exceptional quality and taste.

Where is your crab sourced from?

We use only British crab, sourced from local day boats landed in Brixham. All crab is freshly cooked and picked by hand for quality and consistency.

What’s included in a dressed crab?

Each dressed crab includes a generous mix of white and brown meat, carefully cleaned and presented in the shell. Perfect for serving straight away or adding to recipes.

How long will it stay fresh?

Fresh crab is best enjoyed as soon as possible. We recommend eating it within 3 days of delivery for the finest flavour and texture. Alternatively, you can freeze it on the day of delivery to enjoy at a later date.

How is it packed for delivery?

Our white and 50/50 crabmeat is delivered in sealed plastic pots. Dressed crabs arrive vacuum-packed in the shell for freshness — just give them a quick fluff-up with a fork before serving to enhance presentation.

    I ordered dressed crab and turbot from Hamiltons recently. The crab was delicious. It was very fresh and of a good quality. The turbot was of a generous size and the flesh was white and delicate.

    As a Torbay Native by birth I was pleased to find a local company that sells excellent quality fresh Brixham fish delivered to my door in London at decent prices. Great service and delivery and the Brill is my favorite, Dover Sole on the way for next weekend.

  • ★★★★★

    Hamilton’s Fish is the best you can buy, it tastes as if it’s just fresh from the sea, l get a fish box and extras and even when they are taken from my freezer they still taste fabulous, home delivery is an added bonus 😃would never buy anywhere else. Would recommend highly.
