Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

First visit to this fish market was recommended by locals.
Purchased a pre packed pineapple cut squid in lemon and chilli sauce 850 gm pack. The squid was of poor quality and taste the sauce was not the best too much sauce to squid. After eating the product had a closer look at the packaging information noticed in very small print it was a product from China. Was not fresh it had to be frozen and defrosted and repackaged. Product origin should be more noticeable not such small print.

Today I was in nowra fresh… I brought nearly $200 worth of seafood and red meat. I got a kilo of “apparently fresh Australian cooked prawns”
They WERE NOT FRESH at all!!
We have been in the meat industry for over 30yrs and when we got home, peeled and ate your tasteless chalky prawns… they went straight into the bin!
How many times have they been frozen then thawed I wonder!
They were disgusting….. we will never be back!
And we use to deliver lambs to you guys!

Hi Lisa,
I'm so sorry to hear you were unhappy with your purchase, we do sell both fresh and thawed prawns depending on availability and I can assure you we only defrost our prawns once and we do our best to only stock the best quality products fresh or frozen, I will pass this along to our staff to make sure there isn't any further issues. if you would like to call us on 4429 1900 and we can organise a replacement or refund?
Thanks Naomi.

Wow, in area for short break and have to say this is the best fresh food place I have been to. It is like the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul. It has everything you could possibly imagine. Wish I could take it all back to where we live😊

I ordered fish and chips. The amount of oil and terrible tasting batter was ridiculous! Made me sick to my stomach. Staff not wearing gloves or sanitising hands after handling cash! Worst fish and chip shop I’ve been to!

There were extra large green prawns on ice at $19.99kg and I asked if I bought 5 kg could I get them for cheaper. The salesgirl asked the manager and he told me no that I was already getting them at a good price so I was still happy to pay that price that was on display. When I got home not only did I notice that I was charged $24.99kg but my prawns that they gave me were medium. When I confronted the manager(big giant fellow) he hid behind his little office and was too cowardly to even talk to my face, and told me that if I didn't like the price I could return the prawns. I had no choice as I really wanted to surprise my wife with seafood on her 50th. The manager is a liar, a coward and a thief as far as I'm concerned and I have decided never to shop there again.

I am amazed that this is listed as an attraction! It's just a shop....albeit a good one. Crazy, though, that it's listed on a tourist website! If you want a good butcher and fishmonger, go here. If you want a holiday highlight, don't....it's just a shop.

I was seriously surprised and upset to find on a recent visit to the Fresh Fish and Meat Market in Nowra that the adjoining Cafe has closed!!!
A sign on the door informed me the cafe had closed for future expansion of the Fish Market!
What a shame; this little cafe sold great and delicious seafood meals and coffee and drinks at most reasonable prices.
This leaves a void of a good seafood cafe in Nowra, and many loyal customers over the years will be greatly disappointed.
Come on guys; this little cafe was a magnet for your markets. Are there plans for another?
