Our whole sea bream are the best specimens on the market and have sweet, firm flesh that pairs beautifully with an array of ingredients.
Sea bream is a white fish that can be cooked the same way as its wild cousin black bream. The whole fish is best suited to baking in the oven, though its size means you don’t need a fish kettle if you’d prefer to poach it, as you can usually fit two in a wide sauté pan.
Although growing in popularity, sea bream remains comparatively inexpensive and is, therefore, a great fish to experiment with. Its delicate flavour goes well with fennel, sorrel, lemon juice, thyme, parsley, tarragon, English mustard, olives, asparagus, tomatoes, almonds and garden peas. If you grow your own veg then try using whole sea bream as the centrepiece of a dish that celebrates the flavours of the season.
As a rule of thumb, one sea bream will serve one person as a main course and two as a starter.
Our sea bream are farmed in the eastern Mediterranean and prepared by Fresh Fish Daily’s expert fishmongers.

2. Each portion is then clearly labelled with the species, who packed it, the date it was packed and a fresh use-by date.
3. We add frozen chill packs, which contain non-toxic gel, to a polystyrene box.
4. We pack your order so the chill packs distribute the cold evenly throughout your fish and seafood, ensuring maximum freshness.
5. We seal the box with packing tape and hand it to our courier, who will deliver it to you within 24 hours.

Unlike some of our competitors, when you buy fresh fish from us you can be sure it’s exactly that – always FRESH, never frozen.
Many of the fish we sell are the result of bravery, hard work and years of experience.
The journey begins with the crews of fishing boats, who work long hours in often hazardous conditions to bring back their catch.
When they return to shore the catch is then sold at the market and transported to our premises, where the fish are prepared, vacuum-sealed, packaged and delivered to your door within 24 hours.
It’s a philosophy we’re immensely proud of, one that reflects our commitment to our products and our dedication to serving our customers.
Always FRESH, never frozen.
