Quality Seafood Market

A few years ago, without sacrificing their trademarked "quality," Eaves Bros. decided to expand on their "quantity." Seating at the popular afternoon fish market/cafe is no longer a crap shoot. There are plenty of tables to accommodate, and with the expanded cafe came special design touches and character. A seemingly endless hallway mural leads to the public restrooms. The "60-mile" long (according to the sign), electric-hued wonder, painted by Straw from Shout About It Sign Studio, features all manner of fish and seafaring creature partying down like there's maybe something more back there than the loo. Our favorite design touch, however is in the form of two giant hanging fish: the shark over the market coolers, and the dolphin over the cafe. Both were procured (rescued?) from the old tropical fish store in Hyde Park.
