Why Greendale seafood is best
At Greendale we’re only interested in selling the best to our customers. Because we have our own fishing fleet, we can supply our fish counter with regular fresh catches that can be traced directly back to the sea. Operating in accordance with the Seafood Responsible Fishing Scheme, our boats work out of Exmouth, Brixham and Newlyn, and catch a variety of fish from Westcountry waters; a catch can often be on its way to the Greendale farm shop within hours of leaving the sea. If we can’t catch it ourselves, we source only from trusted suppliers with standards as high as our own, and we take great pride in ensuring that a delicious variety is always to be found on our fish counter.

Master Fishmongers
Our knowledgeable fishmongers are experts in preparing and cooking everything on the fish counter, from Plaice to Lobster and beyond. Skilled at filleting and de-boning, they’re responsible for
getting each daily catch ready for sale as it arrives fresh from our boats. Online shoppers can make great use of this expertise, too, because all the fish in the Greendale farm shop is also sold on our website, available in the same wide range of cuts and whole fish.

Our Fleet
At Greendale we have our own fishing fleet, which means we can supply our fish counter with regular fresh catches that can be traced directly back to the sea. Our boats work out of Exmouth, Brixham and Newlyn, and catch a variety of fish from Westcountry waters; for example, our potting vessel, Becci of Ladram, keeps us well topped up with a selection of fresh fish and shellfish, while the Emily J, our scallop boat, is based in nearby Exmouth.

Whiting with Canellini Puree & Pickled Radishes
Known for its firm, lean flesh and delicate taste, whiting is a more sustainable – and more economical – alternative to cod. Here, it’s paired with a warm garlicky bean purée and some bright pickled radishes for extra crunch.
Greendale Lobster Mac & Cheese
Elevate humble Macaroni Cheese to an altogether more luxurious level with the addition of a whole locally-caught Greendale lobster! There are more complicated versions of this recipe out there, but (because of the time it takes to prep the lobster) we’ve tried to keep it simple.
Mitch Tonks's Pollack with Young Greens
There’s nothing Mitch Tonks doesn’t know when it comes to cooking fish – thoughtful, unfussy and a joy to eat, his recipes always let the seafood shine. Here, simply-cooked Pollack is plated with just-wilted greens and a buttery, mustard-spiked sauce – delicious! Serves 2.
