A traditional artisan fish Smokehouse located on the beautiful North Norfolk coast in the village of
Brancaster Staithe
We are a traditional artisan fish smokehouse, using age old techniques and methods to slowly smoke our fish to produce delicious goods that are enjoyed for their natural flavours that are enhanced by us smoking them.
We aim to continue this tradition of supplying high quality fresh produce, and to grow the business.
I have had over 10 years experience working front of house at a local coastal hotel and also many years home smoking from my hand built smokehouse.
My wife is the Executive Chef of a Norfolk coastal restaurant, The White Horse Pub in Brancaster Staithe, and keeps a keen eye on the quality of our produce as she uses it in her kitchen.
We find that tradition, time and quality make for the best tasting smoked goods. And from this we now supply high end, quality establishments throughout Norfolk from 3 Rosettes to Michelin Star restaurants.
#ProudlyNorfolk
The original smokehouse, Letzers, was started many years ago by a local gentleman called Paul Letzer. He smoked Scottish salmon, cod and herring. After he passed away, the smokehouse was passed onto his son Simon, who continued the tradition.
Now as Simon has moved on and concentrating more on fishing, we were given the opportunity to continue a local smokehouse, to keep a family tradition and style of smoking on going, now and into the future.
From all of this we started
Staithe Smokehouse.
