About Faros Seafood

Inner West cooks skip the Pyrmont market crush entirely, heading straight to Buckley Street for this Marrickville staple. Faros turns over a sprawling dockside haul at wholesale rates—heaping bins of king prawns, split lobster tails, unshucked Pacific oysters, and fresh-cut kingfish sashimi. Regulars grab a ticket number by the door while the room churns. Point out your catch, call for whole babounia, and the counter crew scales, skins, and fillets everything on the spot.

  • Oceanic Variety: Sprawling retail displays stocked with whole table fish, octopus, cockles, sashimi-grade cuts, and sweet babounia.
  • Custom Counter Prep: Counter crew will gut, scale, skin, and fillet whole fish to your exact home-cooking specs on request.
  • Organized Ticket Queue: A ticketed queuing setup keeps heavy weekend crowds and holiday rushes moving briskly through the counter.
