About Us
Established in 1946, Pengelly’s celebrates 80 years as a Cornish icon in 2026. Working hand-in-hand with Looe’s family-owned inshore fleet, we champion true sustainability by landing the UK’s freshest seasonal seafood just steps from our door.
Since 2022, Sam and Laura Chapman have led this local family business with lifelong industry expertise. From our traditional shops and Lobster Shack to our national delivery service, we combine eight decades of heritage with a passionate commitment to quality and conservation.
Our Local Shops
From our traditional fishmongers in Looe and Tavistock to our quayside Lobster Shack and Sandwich Bar, Pengelly’s celebrates the very best of the Cornish coast. We provide a direct link to the day’s landings, offering everything from pristine wild-caught fillets and hand-picked shellfish to authentic waterfront dining and our famous crab sandwiches.
Every location is powered by decades of local knowledge and a deep-rooted passion for the sea, ensuring that whether you are shopping for a home-cooked feast or enjoying a relaxed bite by the harbour, you experience the unbeatable quality of the Atlantic at its freshest.
Being A Fishmonger
Being a fishmonger is a master craft that demands the same precision as a traditional butcher, and at Pengelly’s, our team brings decades of passion and expertise to every catch.
Located just steps from where the fleet lands, our skilled fishmongers meet the boats to hand-select the finest sustainable seafood at its absolute prime. By combining expert knife skills and artisanal preparation with a process that moves from sea to shop in just a few hours, we ensure that every box delivered to your door represents the very best of the Atlantic.
