Seafood Selection for Two
Our fabulous Seafood Selections include the very best of the daily catch – depending on the seasons, abundance and availability. Flavoursome fresh fish fillets, like magnificent turbot, sea bass, or brill, and tasty cod or hake, plus our fabulous hand-dived Dorset scallops and locally-grown mussels. The contents may vary but the quality never will.
A convenient way to plan ahead, your fish will arrive fully prepared and ready to cook or freeze. Perfect for two, delicious two-course meals for two.
Most of our turbot and brill is caught in local waters drift fishing over the Shambles Bank, east of Portland, or in day boat nets in Lyme Bay or off Lulworth Cove.
Weymouth is the heart of UK bass fishing, accounting for 40% of all line caught fish. The local fleet, including own Weyfish boats, bring in the great majority of the fish we sell.
Pollack are abundant around Portland Bill, where they live amongst the coastal rocks. Larger fish tend to be found further out to sea, often around wrecks, where they’re sustainably caught on rod and line.
Our local Dorset scallops are hand-dived or dredged on the flatter sand bars of Lyme Bay and Lulworth Cove.
Monkfish and lemon sole are present in the waters around Weymouth but no in great numbers. The Weymouth catch is supplemented by fish from Brixham and Plymouth markets, where we employ experienced fish buyers to target small quantity, high quality, day boat landings.
For cold water North Sea and Atlantic species, like halibut, cod and hake, our expert fish buyers hand pick the best of the catch direct from the Peterhead auction floor, pack it in ice, and ship it overnight to arrive with us the next day.
Our sustainably farmed Scottish salmon, is shipped overnight the same way.
Live, estuary-grown, West Country mussels are farmed by select providers based in Fowey and Porthilly, depending on availability.
We source our samphire from a variety of specialist producers worldwide, depending on quality and availability.

Allergens: Contains FISH, SHELLFISH
There are, of course, more ways to cook the fresh seafood in this selection than we’d ever have space to cover here. But to let the delicate flavours shine through, we recommend white fish fillets are best cooked simply, pan-fried in oil and butter or grilled, then drizzled over with some olive oil, lemon juice and plenty of seasoning.
Halibut, turbot, cod and monkfish also roast very well in the oven or on a gas barbecue grill. And everyone has a favourite salmon recipe. It’s popular baked, grilled, steamed, barbecued, shallow or stir fried. It’s also delicious cold with a salad.
Scallops need the minimum of cooking. Just sauté quickly in a little butter until the meat turns opaque and begins to colour and caramelise. At the shop, we serve ours with fresh-tasting, homemade salsa verde.
The top mussel recipe is probably classic moules marinière, with white wine, cream, garlic and parsley, but they’re also great with cider and crème fraiche, leeks and bacon, curry broth or baked and stuffed. Remember to discard any mussels that don’t open during cooking.
All fish and scallops should be stored in the fridge between 0ºC-5ºC and eaten within 2-3 days. If you don’t plan to eat within 3 days, then freeze on day of delivery and eat within 3 months. Defrost in the fridge overnight. Do not refreeze.
As a live, fresh product, mussels can also be stored for up to 3 days in the fridge but are not suitable for home freezing.
Samphire can be stored in the fridge for up to 10 days or can be frozen. Freeze on day of delivery and eat within 3 months. Do not refreeze.
