Herring is a type of fish that restores 5 Hitpoints when eaten. It can be obtained by cooking raw herring on a fire or cooking range, requiring level 5 Cooking and granting 50 experience when successful. When cooking there is a chance to fail, resulting in a burnt herring. The burn rate decreases as the player's Cooking level increases. Herring is one of a number of foods with a reduced burn rate while using the Lumbridge Castle range with Cook's Assistant completed. It will stop burning entirely at Cooking level 41, or 38 when using the Lumbridge range.

Trivia

• One of Old School RuneScape's Monty Python references is revealed if players use a herring (cooked or raw) with almost any tree in Gielinor. The chatbox will state This is not the mightiest tree in the forest, in reference to one of the lines in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
  • If used with a redwood tree that has fully grown in the Farming Guild, the chatbox will state This is not the mightiest tree in the forest; it is fairly mighty though.
  • If used with the Grand Tree, the chatbox will state It can't be done! in reference to another line in the movie.
  • If used with the blisterwood tree, the chatbox will state This is indeed a mighty tree. But alas, it is not the mightiest tree in the forest.
  • The Christmas Tree has no herring messages.
    • During the 2020 Christmas event, the message was indeterminable. The chatbox may state: I can't reach that! or have no message at all where the player may step towards the tree and step back again.
    • During the 2021 Christmas event, the chatbox states: Nothing interesting happens.
  • Several other ungatherable trees do not have any herring messages:
    • Evergreen tree from the 2021 Halloween event
    • Mac's evergreen
    • Strong Yew
    • Tree (Draynor guard)
    • Tree (tropical)
