FAQs
General
How do I get to Fish Shop?
You’ll find Fish Shop on Water Street Southwest at the Southern end of The Wharf on Water Street. Adjacent to Poetry & Prose and Pluma Bakery and opposite Arena Stage, it’s just a 6 minute walk from the Waterfront Metro Station and moments from many bus stations. There are several public parking garages along The Wharf, including the Atlantic Car Park underneath the building, but public transport is very easy and our recommended route.
