    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.

    Excellent quality fish vacuum packed ready for freezing - generous portion sizes and absolutely fresh fish. Delicious. Delivery is always on time and takes account of any delivery instructions - I can thoroughly recommend trying them out!

    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.
