Does anyone use this company?
What's their fish like and is there a best day of the week to visit (ie. when do they take fresh delivieries)?

Yes. When I want a local review of what is apparently the only fishmonger in the local area (without going to Blackb*rn).

Yep - I'd recommend it Rowls. Bought some great scallops and lobster there last Saturday.

Thanks Baron.
The lobster and scallops look a bit pricey.
I'm hoping there's some good fresh fish on the day.

I have found your better off getting it delivered, you seem to get fresher fish that way.
The sushimi Tuna was the best I have ever had.

I go to their shop next door to Argos on Canning Street regularly, always found the fish to be excellent quality and reasonably priced.

Used them or years. Decent selection, well priced and helpful if you want any advice or prep doing. The bags of frozen, raw king prawns are fantastic. They’re huge. 3 in a bowl of pasta is plenty

Funnily enough went there yesterday for first time in ages. Got some salt and pepper fishcakes that were 11/10! Very good.
The prawns are always excellent and the fish is definitely far better than supermarkets.

They should have plenty of reasonably priced Scottish shellfish.
