Why do we eat fish on Good Friday?

FUN FACT >> The tradition of eating fish is believed to originate with the idea of fasting, not in the sense of abstaining from eating, but in the practice of abstaining from eating the flesh of warm-blooded creatures. This is supposed to be in respect to the Christian belief that Jesus, being a warm-blooded creature, died on Good Friday. But did you know that fish has been associated with sacred holidays even in pre-Christian times? As a direct result of this practice, the fish industry has flourished over the centuries. Centuries. Meatless days filled the medieval Christian calendar — not just on Fridays but also on Wednesdays and Saturdays, during Advent, Lent, and so on. The demand for fish grew, adding to the growth of the global fishing industry. Whether you celebrate Good Friday and Easter Weekend by eating fish or by just enjoying a good meal with the family, we have a menu for you! Check out below for our opening Hours Over Easter!
