Your friendly
neighbourhood fishmonger
Good morning, Medway!
I’m your friendly neighbourhood fishmonger — now proudly based in the historic town of Rochester, Kent — bringing you the freshest, highest-quality fish and seafood in the area.
If you’re searching for a trusted fishmonger in Medway or Rochester, here’s a little about me.
I’ve worked in the fish trade for over 12 years, and in the food industry for more than 16. I started as a Saturday boy in a local fishmongers, before working my way into Michelin-rated restaurants across Kent, with a short stint abroad on the Côte d’Azur.
Over the years, I’ve built a deep understanding of fresh fish, seafood quality, and sustainable sourcing — something I bring into everything I do today.
At the start of 2026, I decided to take the leap and open my own independent fishmongers — built around quality, honesty, and a genuine passion for seafood.
And so, C.J. Hook’s Fishmongers in Rochester High Street was born.
You’ll find us at 174 Rochester High Street, offering a carefully selected range of fresh fish and seafood sourced from Brixham Market, Scotland, and the best UK coastal suppliers.
Whether you’re a home cook, seafood lover, or local restaurant, we’re here to provide the best fish in Medway, with friendly, knowledgeable service every time.
