Rockfish Seasonal Seafood Guide

The seafood we serve and sell will always be fresh, seasonal and sustainable. This means that the market fish available in our restaurants, and the species we have for sale in our online seafood market, are updated daily based on what's been landed in Brixham that morning.

These species are at their best and most abundant at this time of year. You'll find them on the market fish list in our restaurants - we'll let you know which have been landed that day - and make sure to watch out for them in the online seafood market too.

SUSTAINABILITY & SEAFOOD

Sustainability is all about ensuring fish species can continue to reproduce so that healthy stock levels are maintained. We do not buy seafood from any fishery that is not well controlled or managed, we do not sell fish that is endangered, and we don’t buy from anywhere where we feel uncomfortable about the health of the fishery or fishing method.
