The Fish House is proud to bring fresh seafood to you daily from the NC coast. This local market was opened by a true local. The owner was born and raised down the road in Holly Springs. You’ll pay less here than most of the local grocery stores, and you’re not getting food that’s coming from out of the country, and shipped across the world. Can it get better? Yes it can – they will prepare the fish for you onsite, including cleaning and filleting at no charge. The best way to know about their daily specials is to follow them on facebook at thefishhouseseafoodllc.
