Hull celebrates seafood restaurant arrival

A NEW seafood restaurant has opened close to where Hull’s once famous fishing fleet was based. Humber Fish Co has been launched in a former fruit and vegetable warehouse by local restaurateurs James and Paula Stockdale.

The couple have invested £100,000 in their new venture, saying they aim to create an experience and environment to rival the best seafood restaurants in London.

Chef James, who has almost 30 years’ experience in the hospitality industry, said: ‘With Hull’s maritime heritage, it’s really surprising no one has opened a trendy fish and seafood restaurant that reflects all that history. We’re putting that right.’
