🌊🇬🇧 FROM BRITISH WATERS TO YOUR PLATE 🇬🇧🌊

At Wanstead Fish we’re proud to source the very best seafood from fishing communities all around the British Isles.

From the cold Scottish waters bringing us fresh haddock, cod & salmon…
to the South Coast day boats landing Dover sole, turbot & John Dory…
every catch has a story and every port has its speciality. ⚓🐟

This map celebrates some of the incredible fishing ports and coastal communities we work with and support:

📍 Peterhead – haddock, cod & hake
📍 Brixham – Dover sole, turbot & plaice
📍 Newlyn – hake, monkfish & crab
📍 Hastings – bass, lobster & skate
📍 Essex – famous native oysters
📍 Wales – beautiful fresh mussels
📍 Grimsby, Fleetwood, Fraserburgh & more…

We believe in:
✔️ Sustainable fisheries
✔️ Seasonal seafood
✔️ Supporting British coastal communities
✔️ Quality fish landed with care

Fresh from boat to plate.
That’s the Wanstead Fish way. 🐠

Early start for our newest little fishmonger today… 🐟❄️

Ivy, aged 7, was up at 4:30am and heading to Billingsgate Market by 5:30am with Daddy for a proper morning behind the scenes at Wanstead Fish! 💪

She helped:
❄️ Load and unload the van full of ice
❄️ Pull the ice into the shop
❄️ Fill the fish display ready for the day ahead

After all that hard work, pancakes were definitely deserved for breakfast 🥞😋

And the morning wasn’t over yet… next stop was helping deliver fresh fish to local restaurants — all before 7:30am!

She’s back to the shop to choose her dinner…
Will it be her favourites, cod or prawns? 🐟🍤

We think Ivy has earned a reward today… but what should it be? 👀👇
