Manhattan's Floating Octopus Market
🛥️ FIND THE BARGEYou're walking along the Hudson River at sunset when you spot a vintage barge flying fishing flags. An actual fisherman in yellow waterproof gear hands you a live octopus just pulled from the Atlantic that morning, still shimmering with iridescent colors, for $8.99/lb—half what you'd pay at a Chelsea Market fish counter that's been sitting on ice for three days. You watch him expertly prep it on deck while you sip a glass of wine from the onboard bar, meeting the person who caught your dinner.
Our refurbished barge docks at 3 Manhattan piers every day, bringing fresh catch directly from fishermen.
Fishermen earn double their usual cut by cutting out distributors. You save 40% vs traditional markets.
