I visit this business 2/3 times a month to get FRESH FISH. The quality is very good and for a reasonable price. I think it is landed in Whitby, but not sure.

Of course it helps if the range they sell is good and here it's terrific. Masses of fish - that's an obvious thing to say - but throw in a large range of shellfish, both fresh and frozen, and you have a truly outstanding stall. Once the people who run it get to know you they'll keep various cuts of fish to one side if you shop regularly, and if you have a particular requirement they will do whatever they can to fulfil it. I travel to the market every couple of weeks and the trip to Myers stall is always one of the highlights as everyone is so nice. This is my pick of the fish and seafood stalls in the market by some distance.

They are happy to take special requests and order in. Just because their display is smaller doesn't mean they lack in stock! My one drawback with all these fish stalls in a row is that it can be difficult to work out which is which, unless you step back and look at the signs. Neverthless, despite being flanked by Bethells, they stand their ground and do a good job!

It's been a year since I set foot in the Arndale and longer still since bought anything from here so I was a but apprehensive. Circling around the counter like a shark I was super excited with their selection. Everything looked fresh and tasty despite what the negative comments say. We were served very quickly despite it starting to be quite busy and she was lovely. For £40 we walked away with 1kg of tuna sashimi, salmon sashimi, 180g of scallops, 5 rock oysters and 3 red snappers.. ..I usually spend that on sushi alone.. Overall staff were attentive, paid attention to hygiene i.e cleaning hands every time they touched a fishy, wore masks and had great produce. Yes I will be back after me any my kitties devour this stash.

This is a really unbelievable fishmonger. I'm sure it is the widest selection of fish and seafood…read moreavailable in Manchester and beyond. Its closest competitor is the smaller but more quaint fishery in Didsbury, Evans Fish, but for me this place tops it through the sheer selection offered at excellent prices. When you enter the room, just alongside the Arndale Food Market, you will be literally astounded. There are literally hundreds of fish on offer. You may also be scared, as some of them are huge and have really scary faces. They have everything you can imagine from cod and haddock through sea bream and jon dory to trout and mackerel. Apart from the fish they have crabs, including some blue one with patterns on their backs worthy of an art gallery. They have prawns, ranging from the very tiny to the absolutely huge. One type of prawn is so big you would honestly only want one per person. They also have oysters, which are an alarming 85p per one. They have mussels. They even have cod roe and caviar. The prices are all unbelievable, often £2 per fish or three for a fiver. They also do 'fish pie mix' which has chunks of white fish, salmon and smoked fish in, for two quid or so. Basically if you like fish, this is the best place in the world.

This should be one of the UK's most outstanding seafood 'emporiums'…read more It has a large selection of fresh and frozen fish as well as loads of stuff to go with them - sauces, pickles, mustards there is even a wine section. What lets it down is the slightly aloof attitude of the staff who never seem terribly happy to serve you and the idea of banter with these people is almost unheard of. Produce is almost begrudgingly sold. The quality of the produce is without question - they keep live lobsters here so you know how fresh they are. It's worth a visit as they sell almost everything (no frozen baby squid though! Shame as these are readily available in Leeds market!). Could do much better, and not a patch on most of the stalls selling fish in Leeds market - see my other reviews for that.

Another added bonus is that it is located in a spacious food section of the indoor market and the place is very clean and tidy. If you lucky you might find a unique catch on display when you visit, last year they had a 1.2 metre Swordfish caught from somewhere in West Africa on display.

I only give this place 4 out of 5 as I haven't yet bought anything…read more I was drifting back through the market towards the inexorable Easter pull of Hotel Chocolate, when I came face to face with the Conger Eel in the accompanying photo. I'm sure the slippery fella was included in the list of 10 Most Diabolical Fish on Earth that I was reading about on-line the other day. Anyhow, face to face with my sub-aquatic nemesis, I was truly amazed by this place. They have just about every possible type of fish and seafood one can think of, and more besides. I don't know how common this kind of comprehensive fish/seafood emporium is elsewhere, but I reckon it has to be worth a visit to Manchester alone and if you have some small children you could take, all the better! It's like some kind of edible museum. An aquarium of exotic tastes, no less. The staff were incredibly friendly too. I was told that the Conger Eel is often bought by African customers and you buy it by the slice. Other residents included huge bream and carp, a plethora of jet black catfish nestled barb to barb at the front of one side of the gargantuan oval counter and several decapitated fish heads, which according to the monger, are bought and used for fish stock. Further still along this plank of plenty, was the seafood section replete with pink spider crabs, king and emperor prawns, and an assortment of shellfish that ranged from cockles and whelks to oysters. What a place. Fin.

Apart from the now very famous Christmas market, my next favourite annual event has to be the Fine Food Market, usually held between September and October every year in St Ann's Square.

Bringing together some of the biggest talents and producers in the North, expect to be fed by the best restaurants in town and offered some of the best home grown produce in the country. According to the government website, 'speciality meats, smoked foods (fish, cheese, meats and poultry) cheeses, chutneys, pickles, black puddings, ice cream, specialist ales and sloe gin' are just a very few items on sale here.

A mooch around the market is the perfect way to liven up an otherwise dull day at the office (or living room, if you work from home, like me), so as soon as the clock strikes 1pm, get yourself there. You're going to spend, on average, about a fiver for takeaway food from one of the stalls but portions are good - especially at the Hog Roast stall, where they'll ram your baguette so full of pork and apple sauce you won't know where to start. As well as food, you'll find a number of stalls selling art and hand-crafted decor for the home, plus vintage furniture and clothing in the market's main indoor area; The Orangery, where you can also see/hear live music at certain times throughout the day (check the signage outside for more details). I'm really impressed with this little market. It's brought a much-needed injection of 'quaint' to the city centre. I wish it was here all the time!
