Frequently Asked Questions

This has never happened in two and a half years of delivering fish in this way. It's down to the extra effort that's put in at our end to make this service possible. And because we only ship the freshest of fish. We'd rather tell you that something isn't in stock than send you anything but the freshest.

The Seabird system is our unique way of purchasing, processing, packing and distribution to ensure our lovely fresh seafood reaches our valued customers in prime, "just bought from the shop" condition. Read more about the Seabird System.

We always do our best to source from sustainable sources and additionally try to provide full traceability

I've never seen supermarket fish anywhere near the standard required to compare like for like. I'm a firm believer that you get what you pay for.

The fish should have a shine about it and a slight smell of the sea, as opposed to be ing dull, lifeless or discoloured.

Within insulated boxes we place sealed frozen gel packs that will keep the temperature down for 48 hours. The time that your fresh seafood delivery is in transit is on average less than 16 hours.

Yes of course - it's your choice and we love meeting our customers. We guarantee that the fish you get delivered will be as fresh as what you buy in the shop. Check out our locations. All shops are open every day except Sunday and Monday.

Based in Scotland, Seabird Fishmongers is the parent company that has been established for over thirty years supplying hotels, restaurants and fish and chip shops who all demand the highest quality supply of fish. We also serve the public through three retail outlets located across the central belt. Check out our locations.

YES. As part of the unique Seabird System our products are prepared in such a way that they can be frozen for a period of four months without any deterioration in quality. Be wary of some other "fresh" fish suppliers who actually supply pre-frozen fish. Avoid!

As part of the ordering process we take your contact details and we'll contact you to make delivery arrangements that you are comfortable with. Our Seabird system keeps the fish in pristine condition for up to 48 hours so delivery can really be stress-free.

A few reasons really. There aren't fresh supplies of fish at the fish markets 7 days a week and we want to guarantee our customers the freshest of fish. Also, your fresh fish delivery will keep for three or four days without deterioration under proper refridgeration so it makes sense to limit the delivery days.

Yes we do! Contact our sales staff and we can sort something out!
