I've just taken delivery of my first order of Mere Trout and it won't be my last. Every part of the experience was perfect from ordering to delivery. They were packed in ice and cool box and in perfect condition on arrival. I would certainly recommend.

Fish always arrives spanking fresh . Taste as as it it looks clean and fresh . Customer for some time but recently ordered whole hot smoked trout for the first time; amazed at the subtle balance between the background note of the smoke and the taste of the trout.

As always the cold smoked trout is delicious. I like the way it is packaged with sheets in between the slices making it easier to separate. I did notice that the slices seemed thicker than previous ones which were wafer thin which I prefer but just as lovely. I also ordered the large smoked trout terrine which is a favourite of mine I love the flavour and most of all the smooth texture. I have tried many other terrines but I always come back to this one. As it is just for one person I cut it on arrival into 4 pieces and freeze 3 which is more manageable. Definitely recommend ordering as a treat or special occasions. Thanks again.

Delicious smoked trout and creamy smoked trout terrine. Better than smoked salmon.
I used to live in Salisbury, where Mere Trout had a stall in the market. Imagine my delight (now I live 100 miles away and cannot buy in person) to find that I can get my favourite trout by mail order.
The courier delivers my order, packed with ice, the next day. In all but the hottest weather this is a very successful system.

Delivered in good time. Very good smoked trout and terrines delicious. A superb alternative to eating salmon which I refuse to do. Mortality rates on salmon farms are unacceptable and they infect wild salmon as well.

Lovely trout products, despite advertised weight some items were smaller than expected (lack of research on my part). Pricey but worth it for a treat. Shame the packaging is polystyrene which cannot be recycled (I receive other chilled/frozen products from elsewhere who avoid using polystyrene and they remain chilled/frozen, so it can be done). Scheduled delivery with APC got later and later as the day went on (tracked it online getting further down the list), but it did arrive on the day and in good condition. Think I'd visit the shop or other outlets in future rather than delivery. Great trout though.

I've made a few orders now over the last couple of years, and I've been happy to let go a subscription to a supplier of free range meat in order to support Mere Trout on the basis of product quality, sustainability and ethical food production.

The fresh fish taste superb, really clean flavour, and the other products on offer such as the smoked trout and terrine have been equally well received.

All I can say is to try out the product - you will not be disappointed

My order arrived exactly as promised. After adding a few herbs, putting a few thin slices of lemon in the cavity with a bit of butter and wrapping in foil. In the oven for 20 mins. Probably the best trout meal we have had according to she who must be obeyed😇.

Just recieved our second order. Bigger order this time so we can feed a few friends and try the smoked offerings, may be in the morning with toast and scrambled eggs. Will let you know 😋😋

This is the second time I've used Mere Trout. I was really impressed with the flavour and quality of the hot smoked trout, so I came back for more. This time, including the large fresh trout. As anticipated, it is exceptional, delivering beyond expectation in freshness,taste and texture.
You know trout is fresh when it's still slimy. This was so fresh slime, bright eyes. Washed in salt, light rub with oil a few fronds of home grown fennel in the cavity, season grill serve 4-5 in our house. Fab!

This is my favourite farm to buy fish from. The fish tastes beautiful and I really appreciate the care the farmers put in to taking care of the river which the trout live in and not stressing out the fish with too much handling. Producing food is really hard work and I deeply appreciate farmers who choose to do it in a way that works in harmony with the animals and land, and it always tastes so much better! Thank you so much, Mere Trout 🙂

What beautiful products! Really thrilled with the top notch quality and the speed and efficiency of delivery. I ordered a variety of products, we'll eat the smoked trout fillets tonight and the others have gone into the freezer (potted trout, trout pate and sliced smoked trout). Also very impressed with clear instructions about whether the items are suitable for freezing. You can see that this has all been produced with great care and very high standards and that the food is beautiful, locally produced and lovely quality.

We are thoroughly enjoying our smoked trout at the moment. Ordering and delivery were both easy and precise, with our well wrapped and cooled package on our doorstep by 9am on our specified day of delivery, which we were very grateful for, as normal deliveries to us arrive after lunch.
The trout in all the packs were beautifully presented in each. Then we come to the flavour. Oh ! The flavour is wonderful, the smoking not overpowering the delicate flavour of the actual fish, with a lovely texture on the pallette to give a real quality finish to a glorious product. We will definitely be back for more when we have finished this order.
Many thanks for a quality flavoursome product which we both love.
Kindest regards, David and Janet Weaver

Hello, I asked for a sleeve for my trout and it arrived with extra ice and cellotaped. Brilliant. I shall enjoy them. The best thing for me is the consistently great taste and their preparation. Gutting and cleaning for you. Thank you very much to the team at Mere Trout.

Consistently fabulous fish. I love them and try trout in different recipes. Mere Trout also has other goodies. I can highly recommend the cold smoked trout.

Fabulous rainbow trout, fresh, perfect condition.The taste is beautiful, subtle and delicious. I have been looking for fish like these for 10 years. The supermarket offerings are pitiful and expensive.
The trout are well gutted and cleaned ready for cooking.For me, that's a big plus. I am switching to fish from meat. Thank you everybody in your team.
