    Hi,

    I was out for a walk the other day and I saw that a new fish place had opened up beside the Shiva restaurant in Skerries.

    I'm not a fish kinda guy so I'm not sure if its good or not. Anyway, if your facing the church from the main entrance, turn right, and it's about 100 meters straight ahead, then it's just beside Shiva.

    Cheers,

    Hauk

    Plaice you want is Egans, established 1922 opened a few weeks ago. Very little locally caught gear coming in - most of their stuff is imported, nothing much left in the irish sea.

    Spot on cbreeze.

    The guy in Egans will talk you through all his fish & where it came from. Very little Irish stock available, but that's the same all over the pla(i)ce.

    They have a few branches. The shop in Skerries is between the Church & the Garda Station on Strand Street.

    I think there is a guy who sells them from a stall every Friday at the corner of the bus bar in Skerries too, you would have to presume it is fresh from Skerries Harbour

    "Presume" indeed. He only sells fish there on Fridays & it isn't every Friday that the boats come in. Pretty much all fish landed goes straight to market.

    I dont know, from personal experience you can go down the end of the harbour and buy some fresh fish directly from them when the boats come in so dont see why the likes of this guy would not do the same
