Forrest Seafood Delivery FAQs
Do you deliver to Forrest in Canberra's inner south?
Yes — Forrest 2603 is on our regular Canberra ACT delivery route. Orders placed by 2pm Monday to Saturday arrive within 2–3 business days of dispatch from Sydney Fish Markets. Neighbouring suburbs Griffith ACT, Red Hill and Deakin are also covered on the same run.
How do you guarantee freshness for the 2–3 day journey from Sydney to Forrest?
All Canberra deliveries, including Forrest, use our highest-specification insulated packaging with multiple gel ice packs. Orders are sealed at 0–4°C directly after packing at Sydney Fish Markets. The packaging maintains safe temperatures for 48+ hours — well within our ACT delivery window. The cold chain is continuous and temperature-monitored throughout transit.
What does delivery to Forrest 2603 cost?
Delivery to Forrest is $25 flat rate, or free on orders over $120. Forrest customers regularly order at the premium end of our range — lobster, sashimi platters and oyster selections — so the free delivery threshold is often well exceeded. Order by 2pm Monday to Saturday.
What premium seafood is Forrest most known for ordering?
Forrest has one of the highest per-order values in our entire ACT network. Whole lobster, Sydney Rock oysters in two-dozen boxes, sashimi-grade tuna and kingfish, and premium king prawn boxes are the defining orders from this suburb. Pre-made platters for diplomatic and political entertaining are consistently popular.
How much seafood should I order for a formal Forrest dinner party?
For a formal dinner, plan 200–250g of raw seafood per person as a main course, plus starter quantities if you're doing oysters or sashimi beforehand. For 8 guests, expect to order 1.6–2kg of main course seafood plus your starter selections. Our serving calculator can give more precise guidance for your specific menu.

We deliver to all residential and official addresses in Forrest 2603, including diplomatic residences and embassy compounds. For larger official function orders, we recommend placing your order 4–5 days in advance and reaching out to our team so we can confirm stock for your requirements.
