Excellent fishmongers and deli. The fish is excellent. Love their scallops. Their Taramasalata is a favourite of ours with some nice bread. Very simple, but makes one of my favourite lunches. Always friendly and always good. Google just asked me to update my review. Nothing to add. As good as it always has been.

I was recently treated to a bouillabaisse supper from The Fish Deli in Ashburton; apart from my kitchen having the aroma of a fabulous French bistro whilst it was being prepared, it didn’t disappoint on any level! Each piece of fish was succulent and tasty, and plenty of it too! It had obviously been made with an incredibly rich and flavoursome stock (I also buy their frozen stock for my own fish cookery). The bouillabaisse was truly exceptional and may become a joint favourite with their amazing fish pie ….. I’ll have to taste a few more before I decide….. 🐟🍋 FAB-U-LOUS…. Thanks to All at The Fish Deli!!

Visited Ashburton ,primarily for the Antique Shops ,but turned a corner to see a lovely small mainly fish /seafood shop My review is two parts Deli counter mackerel pate and crayfish sensational ! But I’m afraid the two frozen meals were poor …. Sadly the fish tagine was pretty tasteless and poor portion of fish ,couldn’t make out what the fish was,same for the Fish pie ,lots of potato ,only 2 small pieces of salmon and indistinguishable fish portion tiny , Tasted of potato and cheese . Very expensive for what was delivered ,sadly . Need to really consider what goes into these ready meals and not just use left overs …. Price point would have been fine had they delivered on taste and quantity Vivienne Chandler

The bees knees of a fish shop and deli. Super friendly and knowledgeable team, first class fresh fish plus the most delicious made on the premises fish dishes, pates etc, plus their now-famous cooked recipes making delicious fish accessible to newbies. Plus a good selection of round the world deli items and wines and all the gear needed to make the best paella. Always busy around festive seasons so order or visit early! We've been using Nick & Michelle's deli since it opened and have never once been anything less than charmed, satisfied, happy and ultimately so well-fed.

Absolutely fantastic fishmonger. A good selection of fresh fish and the most helpful fishmonger to serve us. Willingly fileted the fish with great skill and care then even told us about a recipe for cuttlefish fish. Just a huge pity we live so far away we can't visit regularly.

We always get our fish from here, it's great to have a local place where we know we can get responsibly sourced, sustainable and really fresh, tasty fish. Donna is really helpful and always happy to advise on what's fresh and in season, and they have plenty of other tasty stuff too. Well worth a visit.

Lovely shop but expensive! I was overcharged on an item and when I pointed it out (after I had paid) there was no offer of reimbursement, just a shrug of the shoulder as though to say "tough" As I was obviously a visitor, I got the impression that they knew I wouldn't be going back. Poor customer service.

We had red mullet which was filleted as we waited. It was freshly caught and collected that morning. Their sustainable policy is a credit to them, and all fish sourced from Plymouth or Brixham.Nick obviously knows is stuff and gives excellent advice on how to cook the fish.

You cannot fault the freshness and quality of their food, but you need to be prepared to pay for it.Very interesting both for fresh fish and seafood but also for their home cooked meals to take away.

When visiting Ashburton, I chanced upon a delightful little shop called The Fish Deli. The decor is fabulous, and they do more than just fish. A splendid bounty of plump olives dominate the floor, which you are welcome to try before buying, among lots of other cooking ingredients and nic nacs. I was served by a very handsome young man who talked me through the bountiful arrays of pâtés and hummus'. The selection of fresh fish was immense, and although it is a little more expensive, its due to all the fish being caught locally. And we could all do with helping our neighbours really!

Not a restaurant but a superb fish deli. Amazing quality freshly caught fish as well as a large selection of juicy olives. Staff are so helpful and friendly and also provide a selection of ready meals. Not to be missed if you are in Ashburton.

The selection of seafood in this deli.is amazing..The central island with ever kind of olive choices is hypnotic. My wife loves it and is pushed for choice,so buys lots. One of our essential stops on our regular bi-annual Ashburton stays.Love it!

Spent a fortune in here over the week but worth every penny or should I say pound. Fish kebabs, humous and lovely dips. Bread was good in here too. Must go if you are a fish fan.

Just had some of the best street food ever from outside the Fish Deli in Ashburton Devon, they did Paella , Thai fish burgers and Tuna Sashimi with salads , sauces etc. the paella was great lots of local mussels, fish , chorizo, prawns ,so tasty . Brilliant value, friendly staff who coped well with the crowds who piled in from 12 ish, we did not have to wait long for our food. The Deli itself is packed full of fishy things, excellent wet fish , dips, olives , utensils , books. The homemade fish cakes are so good I have tried them in the recent past.Real enthusiasts who care about all things fishy.

Have been twice in last 2 weeks to get plaice. So plump that both sides are packed with meat. They buy from day boats so its always fresh. Was a big chunk of tuna in too so nearly had some to make sushi but just had to stick with the plaice. Great olives too ! Not cheap but worth every penny.

We happened to drive through Ashburton and were taken by its charm. We decided to stop and have a look around. Of all the cute shops (so different from the seaside towns) we most liked The Fish Deli. It offers fresh fish, but also seafood salads, olives, nuts, oil, ceramics, etc. The thing I liked most of all is the Hummous. I would love to get the recipe. It has cumin seeds, a taste of orange. Very unusual, but really delicious.For the record, this is not a restaurant, but a shop.

This really is a great deli serving wonderfully fresh fish and deli items. We had friends down for the weekend and wanted to prepare a welcoming lunch for them so headed off to the deli. Our friends were so impressed that we had to alter our plans on the Saturday so that they could buy a selection of dishes to take back to London!!!

Beautiful fresh fish deli with very knowledgable owners who also source locally where possible and are clear on their very good ethical stance on fishing. They are very clever at selling not only fresh fish but 'ready to cook' fish cakes and frozen fish (all made on site) which are great for the fish novices like myself! Also, a brilliant selection of olives, homemade houmous, local artisan bread and other bits and bobs. As the previous reviewer said theirs is not a restaurant, but great for picking up all you need for a lovely restaurant quality meal at home!

We were so impressed with this place, we stopped in for coffee (great Flat White with oat milk), we booked for that evening and we went back for a Sunday Roast the following day, too! The evening, we both had a three course meal. The arancinI is divine (had it both times!). We both had the Belly Pork (fabulous!), then my husband had the Frangipani and didn’t stop raving about it, so we had that again after our roast the following day. We ate very well! Great selection of wine/cocktails. I had a Hugo, delicious and with our roast beef, a rather fabulous bottle of Malbec. Best roast in ages! Hard to beat. Staff great too, a real gem of a place. There was a wedding on the Sunday but service was unaffected. So glad we tried you out but you definitely need to book, place was packed.
