Frequently Asked Questions

What makes your fish different?
We smoke the traditional way, using real Suffolk oak and a light touch to bring out the flavour of the fish.

It’s proper, honest smoking — done on the beach at Hut 8, Crag Path, with care and a bit of pride.
Do you deliver?
Yes — we deliver locally across Aldeburgh and the surrounding area using our chilled van. This includes Thorpeness, Leiston, Saxmundham, Southwold, Halesworth, Woodbridge, Framlingham, Ipswich and nearby villages.

Your order will arrive fresh and ready to enjoy, just as if you’d picked it up from the hut yourself.
Can I buy directly from the hut?
Yes, of course! We’re open seven days a week, 8am to 5pm, and there’s always something fresh ready to take home.

You’ll find us at Hut 8, Crag Path, just opposite the Moot Hall — follow the smell of oak smoke and you can’t miss us.
