Is Fishwife legit?
Short answer: yes, Fishwife is a real store, and our score is 3.8 out of 5. The main caveat: pricier than supermarket tinned fish.
It sells tinned salmon, sardines, tuna, trout, caviar and gift sets through its own website, eatfishwife.com. Public ratings: Thingtesting (Fishwife) 4.5 (167). Check its return policy before you order.
Our take: legitimate, but read the downsides below before you buy.
Quality
Sporked and Tasting Table both tasted and ranked the full range: smoked salmon and smoked trout come out on top, and the hot pepper sardines are praised as smoky and mild. Users rate the brand 4.5 on Thingtesting; a few found the cod chewy or the seasoning too strong. Fishwife has no Trustpilot reviews.
Price and value
Tins cost about $10 to $11, and multi-packs and gift sets less per tin. That's more than supermarket brands; referring a friend gets them 20% off.
Shipping and returns
Orders of $75 or more ship free. Return terms weren't stated on the pages we checked, which is normal for food.
Customer service
There's no public feedback on Fishwife's own store service.
