"You can get freshly shucked oysters at Richard Haward’s in the market, and you’re going to want to do that. Grab a seat and order a few along with a chilled glass of wine. If you want to feel like a baller on the cheap, this is pretty much unbeatable, and know that the Haward family has been harvesting oysters since 1792 so you’re in safe hands." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak

"This market stall shucks plump, fresh oysters at a fraction of restaurant prices. It feels both decadent and entirely grounded to eat half a dozen whilst sat on the kerb, with just lemon, tabasco or vinaigrette to cut through the brine. [OTG]" - Ed Smith

Amazing fresh oysters! Line went fast. Easy to order. Everybody working here made a hectic morning at Borough Market feel very seamless. I loved all the sauce options with the lemon bucket! && on top of that, they did right by having Crystal hot sauce and not that nasty Tabasco nonsense. Genius! Visiting from Florida and I would definitely come back to London, just to eat oysters here again! I ordered the 8 large/medium oysters.

These medium rocky oysters were so fresh, creamy and flavourful! They’re heavenly if you squeeze a bit of lemon and vinaigrette in them to slurp. Strongly recommend you to visit when you’re at Borough Market 🙌

4 mediums for £7!! Medium sized was almost equivalent to the size of my palm. The oysters were so fresh, practically felt like they delivered straight from the ocean. This also meant the oyster was more fishy(?) but the lemon and vinaigrette helps.

I had medium size and I can say this is a perfect size to me, look at my hand and you can understand the size. I can’t eat oysters following my nutritionist diet however this is a perfect place to commit a sin. Fast service a good price.

Some of the best oysters I’ve had in my life, and I’ve had a fair bit. Beautiful and flavourful and the price is fantastic. It was soo good we went back for seconds. We got the 6Medium for £11 and honestly it was a piece of heaven. The guys are also fantastic and very kind.

Seriously the Oyster is so fresh, I’ve more than one dozen of Oyster for my first visit. You can try their oyster with sauce & lemon (if you’re fresh eatery lover), serving Medium & XL size of oyster 🦪 Cheers, price is decent and oyster is definitely fresh

May I suggest to go for the medium oysters. Decent enuff. But refrain from ordering too many at one goal as some will be generally smaller and not the freshest. U can ask to exchange for any oysters U deemed not appealing. Had the rose. Not bad. I prefer this stall than the other stalls becos the turnover is faster.

Repeat customer ! Had the middle and large oysters ! The large one are a little saltier as recommended! Fresh and popular by lunch! Choice of Tabasco sauce and 2 other store sauces with ample lemon slices !!! Hunt it down at the borough market! Oh, the cheese toasties across this shop is also awesome!
