"If you want to sit outside for lunch and eat things on the half-shell, it doesn’t get much better than Little Creek. And while they have a full menu of cooked stuff, you’re really coming here for trays of clams and oysters and buckets of beer. The best seats are outside on the gravel patio where you can watch yachts pull in from the Caribbean or Florida, as well as the fishermen who drop off those oysters and clams. If the kids get a little antsy, you can walk to the nearby green lawn space or the carousel and count how many times the ferry comes and goes from Shelter Island in the distance." - sal vaglica
"This nautical oyster hideout by the docks is tiny, popular, and fun, known for its slogan, “Shuck Your Self.” New Englanders and anyone else who grew up shucking their own oysters will delight that it’s half-price here ($20 versus $36 for a pre-shucked dozen) if you do so. If you don’t know where to start, someone will teach you. Oysters here are divine, since this restaurant is part of a local collective working with dozens of individual farmers and harvesters. If you’re here from The City, the wine prices by the bottle might make you a little weak-kneed. Pull yourself together and order a classic oyster pairing: Muscadet, Champagne, or—yes, it works—chocolatey Oyster Stout from Greenport Brewing." - Alex Van Buren, Andrea Whittle, Devra Ferst

A Greenport favorite run by local oyster farmers, now in a new Carpenter Street home with the same community spirit. Frequently noted by Long Island food writers for education-forward tastings and regional shells.
