In Cod We Trust

Get in!

egular as clockwork, the bould Alison Bates is down at Greystones harbour every Thursday, from 8am to 2pm, with the freshest of fish.

Just so we can all take a step back in time when you could grab fresh fish there every day.

The Bates family have a long, long history as fishmongers – and they’ve got the fishing trawlers heading out of Kilmore Quay every Wednesday to prove it.

So, clearly, Alison and co know what they’re doing.

With an extensive range of fresh fish on offer, you can grab yourself a crab, take a hake, chow down on some chowder, make your life hunky dory with some John Dory, pull a mussel, handle a haddock or dress up as the Irish Billy Ray Cyrus with a red mullet on your head.

Handily, you can make sure Alison has your fish of choice by pre-ordering on 0873670217 – so your dinner is ready and waiting for you come Thursday.

And once their new shop down in New Ross gets into its groove, Ali will back to visiting every Friday too, 8am to 2pm, ready for your tender loving tender.

You can follow Alison’s sea-based shenanigans over on Facebook here, and get in touch directly on alisonbates1976@gmail.com or 0873670217.
