I am looking to find a good fish mongers that doesn't charge the earth.
Changing eating habits and want to eat fish 5-6 times a week instead of meat so we are looking for a place with variety and not too expensive,I usually get the fish in dunnes but find the selection is hit and miss.
Where do yee shop

If you are willing to take a trip out to Oranmore the fish section in Super Valu is very good and always have good deals on.
