FISH SHOP

Celebrating the heritage and traditions of fishing in Scotland, FISH SHOP has been created for those who enjoy freshly caught seafood which is ethically sourced.

FISH SHOP is committed to stocking only sustainably-sourced fish from day and short-trip boats, as well as creel-caught and hand-dived crustacea. All meat will be free-range and locally sourced. It is committed to being low-waste from fit-out to packaging; even smoking techniques use zero-emission charcoal.

Managed by the husband-and-wife team, Executive Chef Marcus and General Manager Jasmine Sherry, the restaurant menu will focus on shellfish and day boat fish, with the addition of select game, meat and vegetables from surrounding farms and estates. Dishes such as Partan Bree, Velvet crab soup; Cape Wrath oysters or BBQ whole plaice, Shetland mussels, samphire will celebrate the seasonal best from Scotland and the British Isles.

Drinks will include biodynamic and low carbon footprint wines chosen from British and European vineyards, including Maid of Bruton Rosé, Bacchus and Sparkling Rosé from our vineyard in Somerset; Blanc de Noirs from Ancre Hill Estates in Monmouthshire, Wales; Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut ‘Terroirs’ from Agrapart & Fils in Champagne or Domaine des Capreoles ‘Diaclasse’ Regnie from Beaujolais, with spirits and beers such as Eight Land Organic Spirits and 6 Degrees North Brewery from micro-breweries and distilleries within Scotland.

A group table has also been included at the back of the restaurant, partially blurred by a recycled cast net. Seating up to 12 guests, the table was created from a salvaged, old ‘tender boat’ that was once pulled around Ardnamurchan and the Western Isles and has been in storage for over two decades.

The adjoining fishmonger will offer seafood from the same boats and providers as the restaurant, with a seasonal selection of fish and shellfish arriving early each morning. A range of seaweeds, preserved seafood, Scottish Blackthorn Seasalt, other store cupboard essentials and daily deliveries of seasonal vegetables can also be found alongside a selection of wine.

The fishmonger will also offer freshly prepared fish dishes e.g. a dozen Cape Wrath oysters mignonette, lemon, tabasco: FISH SHOP fish pie or Fillet of Peterhead hake topped with an Invercauld Estate wild garlic crust for local delivery, or collection in-store.

FISH SHOP is a proud supporter of both the River Dee Trust which is the focus for intensive freshwater conservation actions to help save the iconic Atlantic Salmon by providing a thriving river supporting abundant biodiversity, improving the river both for this and future generations. They also support the Ocean Recovery Project which aims to empower beach cleaners, increase recycling rates and develop new techniques for recycling “hard to recycle” plastics.
