Whole Cooked Crab

Whole Cooked Crab

Wonderful quality brown crab are found in abundance in South West waters, and we believe offer some of the most delicious crab meat in the world. They are perfectly in season at the moment, so make sure you grab some to enjoy while they are at their best.

Our Whole Cooked Crab is steamed by our restaurant chefs just metres from where it is landed on the quayside, before we send it out to arrive on your doorstep the next day, ready to eat. It is best eaten as soon as possible on arrival to capture the freshness. Try one of Mitch's crab recipes or simply enjoy as it is with some crusty bread with a dollop of mayonnaise.

Pot caught in the Western English Channel, North Sea and other areas (N.E Atlantic).

Every day our expert team buy the freshest fish directly from the fleet in Brixham and from the most sustainable fisheries in the world for the online seafood market.

We prepare and portion the fish right at the quayside, just metres from where the boats land, and all the seafood is fully traceable right back to which boat caught it.

We pack and send via our carbon neutral delivery partner to your door in our eco-packaging. Our boxes and insulation are made from recycled materials, and can be recycled too.

When fish is in abundance we blast freeze it at the quayside, locking in the freshness so you can enjoy your favourite even when that specie isn't landed or the boats can't go out.
