  • Delivered Fresh

Wild Bass is one of the most sought-after British fish, celebrated for its clean flavour, firm white flesh, and natural elegance on the plate. Landed fresh on the South West coast and prepared to order, it is always delivered in perfect condition and never previously frozen.

Why it’s special: Sourced from trusted fisheries and landed fresh at the Brixham Market auction, Wild Bass is carefully selected for its quality and consistency. When available, our bass is line-caught, a traditional method valued for sustainability and exceptional eating quality. Each fish is expertly prepared by our skilled fishmongers, ensuring outstanding freshness and presentation.

Quality & versatility: With its mild yet refined flavour and firm, meaty texture, bass is one of the most versatile species. It cooks beautifully when roasted, grilled, or pan-fried, and pairs effortlessly with fresh herbs, citrus, and seasonal vegetables.

Serving inspiration: Roast whole with lemon, garlic, and rosemary for a showstopping centrepiece, or fillet and pan-fry until crisp, serving with a simple herb and olive oil dressing.

Marion
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!

Fabulous! Prompt delivery, well packaged, delicious sardines - highly recommend :)

Susan
Wild Sardines

I have been trying to get seafood, in particular crab, delivered fresh for a very long time. All suppliers deliver pre-frozen products sold legally as fresh. Having spent a lot of my childhood on the south coast I know the vast difference in flavour between the two. When the delivery arrived I was absolutely delighted with the dressed crab and crab meat pots. The entire order was top quality (plaice, sardines, bass). I cannot recommend Hamiltons enough and will be using them on a regular basis from now.

My husband just walked in while doing this and told him what I was doing and his words were EXCELLENT, I also think that was for the fish..

The salmon was wonderful, poached in a court bouillon and decorated perfect for my son’s 60 th. Also the smoked haddock and Huss I bought were excellent quality. When I run out of fish I’ll be back.,

This is how seafood should taste. If you're still getting your fish from the supermarket you're missing something special.

The fish is always beautifully fresh and absolutely delicious. Living so far inland, it is hard to source really fresh fish, but Hamiltons deliver it to us in first class condition and we are very pleased with everything that we have received to date.
