Wild Monkfish is one of the most sought-after British fish, known for its firm, meaty texture and sweet, delicate flavour. Landed fresh through Brixham Fish Market, it is prepared to order and delivered in perfect condition, never previously frozen.

Why it’s special: Selected directly at the Brixham Market auction, monkfish is a South West favourite prized by chefs for its versatility. Its firm flesh holds together beautifully during cooking, making it a reliable choice for both simple and refined dishes.

Quality & versatility: With its lobster-like texture and clean flavour, monkfish is perfect for grilling, roasting, or using in curries and stews. It readily absorbs marinades and bold flavours, while remaining moist and succulent.

Serving inspiration: Roast monkfish tails with garlic and rosemary for an elegant main course, or grill medallions on skewers with herbs and spices for a summer barbecue.

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.
