Bought seabass and salmon fillets, sea bass fillets needed the full works at home cutting off fins, descaling, deboning. Zero effort was made. Lads you can't cut a fish in half and call it a job done. I'll be fair and mark it up a bit because the salmon was done right.

We purchased a pack of oysters and strawberries. Eating outside the shop. I was delighted with how sweet and fresh the food was. They taught us how to open the shell without cutting ourselves and offered water for hand washing as well as tissues for hand cleaning. Located in a lovely coastal town, with fresh seafood and friendly people, this seafood shop is a must-visit.

First time went to Howth pier and decided to get some seafood from this place. Since it was near to closing time on Saturday, we didn’t get many varieties so thought of buying prawns/shrimps. Martin was great at the store who helped us to buy some good prawns 🍤 those were great when cooked at home. The best prawns for a great deal. Really value for money. I will definitely go get some fishes next time from here.

I bought the seafood in the evening and cooked it when I got home at night. The result was not fresh. The shrimp broke after being peeled. It felt like it was frozen, then thawed, then frozen and thawed again. The taste is also very bad, very disappointed. 😞

The lady in the shop was so friendly and helpful. She put lots of ice in a bag so the fish would be good until l got home 2 hours later. The sea bass and salmon were delicious. She even threw in a fresh lemon.
