The East Coast Shellfish Story

The East Coast Shellfish Story

At Forge Valley Roasters, we are passionate about showcasing the best of Yorkshire, and that includes the remarkable produce from our coastline. That’s why we’re excited to be supplied by East Coast Shellfish, a family-run business based in the coastal village of Flamborough.

East Coast Shellfish is dedicated to providing the freshest, highest-quality crabs and lobsters from our local waters. They use a traditional fishing method with "pots," a technique that is hailed as one of the most sustainable in the industry. This method has very little impact on the Flamborough Head chalk reef, Europe’s largest chalk reef and a crucial habitat for marine life.

By working with local fishing boats and selling their catch directly to the public, they ensure a transparent supply chain and a product that is as fresh as can be. Their commitment to sustainability and supporting their local community makes them a supplier we’re proud to work with.
