Nestled in the heart of Camden Passage, Islington Fish is a proudly independent fishmongers dedicated to bringing the very best of Britain’s seas, rivers, and shores to your plate. We believe that great fish begins with great sourcing – that’s why we work closely with trusted UK fisheries and suppliers who share our commitment to quality, sustainability, and responsible fishing practices.
Our fish is delivered fresh each morning, often landed just hours before it reaches our counter. From delicate Cornish sole and sweet Scottish langoustines to rich, meaty mackerel and the finest native oysters, we focus on seasonal catches at their absolute peak. By championing British waters, we reduce food miles, support coastal communities, and help protect marine ecosystems for future generations.
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword for us – it’s a promise. We favour line-caught and day-boat fishing methods that minimise impact on the environment. Our suppliers follow strict quotas and work with organisations dedicated to safeguarding fish stocks and marine habitats. This means our customers can shop with confidence, knowing their purchase supports healthy oceans and a thriving fishing industry.
But Islington Fish is about more than what’s on display – it’s about knowledge, passion, and service. Whether you’re a seasoned seafood lover or trying something new, our friendly team is always on hand to help. We can recommend the best catch of the day, share tips on preparation, and even offer advice on how to make the most of unfamiliar species.
Our shop is more than just a counter of beautiful fish – it’s a celebration of the craft. We take pride in expert preparation, from filleting to pin-boning, ensuring every piece is ready to cook at home. We also offer a carefully chosen selection of frozen, cooked, and deli products, giving you convenient options without compromising on quality.
