What on earth is all the fuss about? It's just a fishmongers (albeit a really really good one). And it's tiny. Moen's Butchers in Old Town is a zillion times better.. And I love fish over meat.

Superb - friendly, fresh, great assortment and often different fish you might want to test. Well done Moxon's!

I'd second the reviews below. Really super, fresh fish, and very well priced. If they don't have what you want (which is rare) they'll suggest a sensible alternative. Really good smoked haddock too. A local shop that is well worth supporting.

Moxons is simply the best thing about living in the area. Every neighbourhood should have a fishmonger's like this. They have a huge range of fantastic quality, super-fresh fish and they care about sustainability too. Service is friendly and knowledgeable, although not all of them can fillet a fish as well as the owner.

I was trying to find a good fishmongers in the Clapham area and somehow stumbled across this website. After reading all the reviews on this site, it has now become my regular fishmongers (I'm in there at least once a week).

The quality of the fish is excellent. It all comes from Billingsgate market, fresh that morning. (I should know, as I popped down there one Saturday and couldn't get hold of any mussels, then headed back up to Moxons and unsurprisingly they had bought the lot!) You can get pretty much any fish in there, including the not-so-common fresh sea trout (which is wonderful, by the way), fresh live or cooked lobster, dressed crabs, crevettes, the most wonderful mussels, and simply to-die-for mouthwatering scallops. Not only is there a fresh selection of fish and molluscs but also a fine array of olive oils and accompaniments, inculding Bomba paella rice (Moxon's I'm sure is the only place within a 5 mile radius that sells it). You can also pick up fresh vegetables and even stock from them, not to mention rather good recipes should you need inspiration.

For the size of their property and their (rather understated) location, these guys have cornered the market and are quite simply the best fishmongers in town. This place should be on one of those '50 things to do before you die' lists! Oh, and always make sure you grab a bag of fresh mussels (about £3 for enough for 2, which is cheaper than Sainsburys). C'est Magnifique!!

This really is an excellent shop. The brill I bought was amazing, and watching it being filleted was worth the money in itself. A proper fishmongers.

Can't fault it - just had a wonderful Valentine's meal made perfect by the fish and friendly service at Moxon's. I cannot believe I lived so close to this place and never knew about it!

Excellent for sushi and sashimi. The salmon and tuna I bought this weekend just melted in the mouth.

I buy from Moxon's at least once a week. The quality, advice and service are first class, second to none. Just don't let things slip as it can not get better.

This is the most reasonably priced quality fishmongers I've been to. I've been searching for a new fishmongers for ages as my local one didn't have a lot of choice. I went to Steve Hatt's which everyone raves about, and although the fish was great quality there, they made a huge song and dance about cutting the heads off some prawns for me, and they close too early. The guys at Moxons were incredibly friendly and helpful - nothing was too much trouble for them - and the opening hours are great. They give fabulous recipe tips too! And most importantly, the fish is superb.

Excellent - friendly staff, very good fish. Only wish they did fresh squid that hasn't been frozen then defrosted and a wider range of crustacea.

Everything I've ever had from Moxon's has been first class. We make a pilgrimage from Beckenham most Saturdays to buy fish from Robin. Best fish in London.
