I'd have to say Hake, followed by Sea Bass then Cod.
I love virtually all fish and shellfish and couldn't really decide what my favourite is, but round here,local Selsey crab, lobster and prawns are hard to beat,
Had a lovely meal in the tiny 'Prawn On The Lawn' in Padstow a few weeks ago; it has just been voted the country's number one fish restaurant.
Can thoroughly recommend it for an informal meal.
Not particularly cheap, but cheaper than Rick Stein's!
Getting into Halibut, very tasty but more expensive

Question was what is your favourite Fish ?.........Crab,Lobster,Prawns are seafood but definitely aren`t Fish.
Count the teeth on the rostrum of the prawn to sus whether they are Cornish local prawns (Palaemon best sea food bar Sussex local prawns) or frozen northern Pandalus prawns (freezing wrecks the taste).
Lampuki
Sea Bream
Octopus
Tuna Steak
Swordfish
Sea Bass
Red Snapper
All locally caught.
What happened to Rock and chips, has someone renamed it or has it been fished out?
Mackerel is a very good fish to have on your summer menu, it's abundance helps but it is always very popular. It's very beautiful too, which makes presentation a cinch. We had it on the menu with hash browns and samphire, for less than 8 quid!
Anyway, more of a bivalve than a fish, but can I have mussels as my favourite?
Depends what part of the country you live in as for some reason the name Rock has many guises , i think rock down south in chip shops would of been Huss mainly the lesser spotted dogfish but sometimes the larger Bullhuss , iv'e no idea why they called it Rock rather than Huss , but it seemed to go out of fashion in the late 90s , being a member of the shark family perhaps humanity grew a conscience and stopped eating them , When i catch a Dogfish i try not to look at them when i unhook them as they have eyelids of sort and generally close their eyes during unhooking .
