Seafood Delivery Forbes

Yes, we deliver to Forbes (2871) and the surrounding Lachlan Valley area. Orders are dispatched from Sydney Fish Markets Monday to Saturday and arrive at your Forbes address within 2–4 business days. Order before 2pm for the fastest dispatch.

We take freshness seriously for every regional delivery. Your Forbes order is packed in insulated boxes with gel ice packs immediately after we source it at the Sydney Fish Markets morning auction, maintaining 0–4°C throughout the 2–4 business day journey. You can expect everything to arrive cold, firm and genuinely fresh — the same standard we hold ourselves to for Sydney deliveries.

Delivery to Forbes is $25. If your order comes to $120 or more, delivery is free. Given that a 1kg bag of king prawns plus some oysters and a fish fillet pack gets you close to that threshold, many Forbes customers stock up to hit the free delivery mark.

King prawns are by far the most popular order from Forbes — they're versatile, crowd-pleasing and the quality from Sydney Fish Markets is something you simply can't replicate with local supermarket options. Sydney Rock oysters are popular for entertaining, and barramundi fillets are a regular weeknight order. Our seafood platters do well with Forbes families for special occasions like Christmas or long weekend gatherings.

For a classic Aussie prawn barbecue, plan on 400g per adult as a generous main. For a mixed spread including sausages and salads, 200–250g of prawns per person is comfortable. A 1kg bag of king prawns handles 2–3 adults as a main. Add a dozen oysters and some flathead fillets and you've got an impressive spread for 4–5 people.

Absolutely — planning ahead is key. For the Elvis Festival in January and other Forbes events that draw guests and visitors, we recommend ordering 3–4 business days before you need it to allow for transit time. If you're hosting visitors for a special event, our seafood platters and bulk prawn packs are perfect for entertaining a larger group. Just factor in the 2–4 business day delivery window when planning your order date.
