Wild Mackerel Fillets are a true British staple, prized for their rich flavour and naturally oily flesh. Landed fresh through Brixham Fish Market, they are prepared to order and delivered in perfect condition, never previously frozen.
Why it’s special: Sourced directly from local day boats, our mackerel is carefully selected at the Brixham Market auction. Each fillet is expertly prepared by our skilled fishmongers to guarantee outstanding freshness and quality.
Quality & versatility: Naturally high in omega-3 oils, mackerel is both healthy and full of flavour. Its firm texture makes it perfect for grilling, pan-frying, or barbecuing, while its richness pairs beautifully with bold seasonings and citrus.
Serving inspiration: Grill whole fillets with sea salt and lemon for a quick supper, or pan-fry and serve with pickled vegetables for a Scandinavian twist.

What is the best way to cook Fresh Wild Mackerel Fillets?
