Pelly's Fish Market & Cafe in Carlsbad's Poinsettia corridor is a women-owned seafood market and cafe at 7110 Avenida Encinas that has filleted fish on-site since 1989. Whole fish arrives on the round and is broken down in the shop each morning, supplying both the retail counter's sushi-grade ahi and locally harvested shellfish and the cafe's sandwich, taco, and grilled-plate menu — a dual market-and-kitchen format distinct from the draft-and-dine gastropub model at Draft Republic Carlsbad further north on Avenida Encinas. Boston and Manhattan clam chowders are made from scratch in the kitchen, and the fish-and-chips basket uses cod dipped in a house batter and fried to order alongside thick-cut fries. The fish burrito wraps grilled catch with salsa fresca, yogurt sauce, guacamole, cheese, sour cream, and green cabbage inside a warm flour tortilla, served with Spanish rice and black beans. The retail market side sells take-home fillets, shrimp, and clams alongside the house cocktail and tartar sauces, paralleling the grab-and-go dessert counter at Handel's Homemade Ice Cream on Palomar Airport Road. The langostino taco uses a beer-battered preparation that yields a crispy shell around the sweet crustacean meat, served with yogurt sauce and shredded cabbage in soft corn tortillas.
