    I visited Cromer on a day trip by coach last Autumn. I was about to give-up on buying some dressed…read morecrabs to take home at the end of the day. when I found Davies fishmonger's on the way back to the coach. I went in, and the staff were wonderful. they could not have been more helpful. I bought three crabs, and they filled a plastic bag with crushed ice, wrapped the crabs in newspaper and placed them in with ice. I arrived home two hours later and enjoyed the first of the crabs. The other two were eaten over the next two days, all in perfect condition and beautifully tasty. I will certainly go there again on any future visit to Cromer .

    Once you've eaten seafood bought from this shop, believe me, you won't want to buy elsewhere ever…read moreagain! Everything is as fresh as is possible, being brought straight off of the fishing boats just hours earlier. Cromer crabs are reputed to be the finest in the world, and I'm inclined to believe this. Dressed crabs from £2.50 upwards depending on size. Other seafood includes prawns, mussels, jellied eels, cockles, mackerel, trout, tuna, herrings, soft roe, sea bass, lobster, in fact the produce sold, reflects seasonal availability so will be constantly changing throughout the year. Friendly staff will oblige with cutting off fish-heads if requested, and service is excellent even at busiest times, there always seem to be enough to minimise any waiting. For holidaymakers and tourists who wish to buy for taking home, there is always a supply of ice and paper for wrapping everything up for a long journey.

    If you can use a wholesale amount of fish, this is the place to get it. Come early for the action:…read morefishmongers pitching their catches, from the very common to the extremely exotic. There's no question about the quality, the freshness, or the authenticity of these vendors, but they mean business. This is not a market for casual perusal, this is where you go when you have to feed twenty or more people some extremely fresh, extremely flavorful fish.

    "when the seagulls follow the trawler, it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the…read moresea", so says eric cantona! so when i first saw seagulls swarming billingsgate fish market, i knew this is the place to come for your fresh seafood fix! not only were there seagulls but hoards of people even though it was already 6.40am. you see, they start as early as 5am and we were definitely not among the early birds. armed with our buckets for carrying our expected loot, we were well prepared for our catches of the day. the buckets will really come in handy as it will keep your boot clean too! in case you are wondering, they do retail to the general public. of course, they would prefer you buying more than what you need, but the fact that they sold us 2 pieces of salmon fish head for 1 quid should encourage you to come here! a plastic bag was also provide, what a steal!:) the salmon fish head must be the best buy, plenty of flesh was still attached. according to my friend's mom, she will make a nice fish head curry out of it! lots on offer, lots to see. all kinds of seafood cheap as can be! 3 crabs for 7.50 quid?? fillets of cod at various sizes and various prices. the ones we bought were 8 quid per kg. fresh as fresh can be, sea bass, great looking turbot, even grouper! lobsters, scallops with roe(with or without shell), squid, smoked salmon, fresh salmon, monk fish, prawns, sea snails etc. the market was relatively clean but wet. most fishes are not gutted but you do get some stalls selling gutted ones. take your time to go from stall to stall before committing your purchase. some stalls are fresher, others are cheaper! there are also 2 cafes on site. one right by the entrance and another at the opposite end. we dropped in at the one at the other end after our fishy exploits. small cosy little cafe offering full english breakfast! the walls are framed with interesting photos of people who have visited. we shared the mix grill breakfast( baked beans, grilled tomatoes, chips, beef pattie with grilled onions, sausage, bacon, egg, toast and coffee, 5.50 quid) and a haddock breakfast( haddock, 2 poached eggs, toast and coffee, 7 quid). good for 4 persons! additional tea was only 50p each. not quite your tsukiji fish market but certainly billed as the largest fish market in london!
