Fishwife earns strong reviews for genuinely flavorful, high‑quality tinned seafood—standouts include Smoked Albacore Tuna, Smoked Rainbow Trout, and Fly By Jing Smoked Salmon—paired with dazzling, giftable packaging and a sustainability ethos. Reviews also flag meaningful drawbacks: small portions, frequent dryness or chewiness in cod and some salmon, a pervasive smoky profile that can overpower, unbranded “naked” tins, limited variety, and polarizing flavors; many find it best for special occasions rather than everyday use.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
love fishwife! good quality fish in beautiful packaging and they really care about their sustainability and letting consumers know where the product is coming from!
A family favorite! When my husband and I don't know what to do for a meal, tin fish night is a go to, and Fishwife is a STAPLE in our pantry because of that. It's just quality that you can trust. Even if we haven't had a particular tin previously, we already know that the flavors are going to be on point and it's going to be delicious. I don't think that there are very many brands out there where you can just purchase and trust anything they make is going to be THAT good.
This is an awesome quick lunch to have in your pantry- full of flavor and love the variety.
As a certified tin fish lover I can't get enough of FishWife! The smoked albacore tuna is my favorite but they are all so flavor filled and delicious. And the packaging is too perfect to pass up
The best canned fish IMO! Not only is the packaging so pretty, but the quality is great. Tried the Sardines, Smoked Tuna and Smoked Rainbow Trout. Had these with just crackers and bread and you really taste the quality. 10/10 would recommend!
Absolutely love this brand. Sustainable, delish, and fun design.

Expensive but worth it!

This fish is so high quality, I enjoy it completely by itself. Great to pack on a hike. Fishwife turns any camping meal experience into glamping. 🏕💅
I really love Fishwife, especially the tuna. I usually have a couple of tins around to grab for lunch if I need something quick. It's excellent on a piece of toast with just a little mayo and some lemon juice!
Feedback
The fish is definitely a little on the pricier side, but honestly it's good enough that I'm not terribly concerned. Also, they usually have one or two sales each year or discounts for the multi packs that make it a little easier. The fish obviously doesn't go bad so it's easy to stock up!

The best experience I've had so far with tinned fish! The packaging is flawless. The trout was rich, seasoned well, delicious with a salad. And the mission is admirable I think. Although expensive, I will definitely buy more for certain occasions - camping and a weekly tuna melt for me :)
Feedback
I would buy more frequently at a lower price point personally.
Delicious! They provide great recipes on their website. Also, really love the packaging. I’m a huge foodie and this packaging just makes me smile. Their limited edition / collabs have also been great!

The packaging is absolutely beautiful. I am not the biggest fan of tinned fish but this was an absolutely delicious option. I got it at a discount which made it worth it but it is a pretty expensive product.

I was hesitant to try tinned seafood, but wow. SO GOOD! I had the Fishwife x Fly by Jing Smoked Salmon collab and I was eating it right out of the tin. I will be buying more.

If you're like me and your first thought is of your standard, American, canned tuna... this is NOT that.

The packaging is beautiful but the fish wasn't as flavorful as I would like. Definitely a question of personal taste, but I'd say it's probably worth trying just for the box alone.
The campfire cod has a pretty smoky flavor straight out of the tin. I made one of the pasta recipes from the website and it was delicious. Super cute packaging.

Not sure it's really worth buying multiple times.

The campfire cod was too smoky for my taste, but my partner liked it.

I appreciate the packaging, it's really engaging and does a nice job of explaining the brand. The cod was good, nice big chunks and the serving size was appropriate. Definitely high quality product.
Feedback
The flavor profile of this particular product was not one of my favorites. Personal preference would be less smoke and pepper flavor but I think it would meet the expectations of those seeking this type of flavor profile. A bit overpowering by the end of the can.

So delicious and beautiful branding
Got a variety pack & ate them all in one week — love the recipe inspo on their site! Definitely go for the tahini trout salad sandwich.

No comment! Excited to order more!

I got their variety pack when they first came out to gift to my boyfriend for his birthday. He loved it and he’s a tin fish connoisseur (according to him). I tried the spicy tuna the other day and it was so good. I put it on a pita cracker with a bit of cottage cheese and unlocked my new favorite snack
Convenient for lunch, but I wish the cans were larger for the cost. I especially like the collab with Fly by Jing.
