Chef-driven seafood creations & oysters with wine in chic space
"Comfort order: A round of oysters and a casual glass of wine. Sure, you could confront your feelings and the general sensation that the world is falling apart one trip to Durham at a time. Or, you could completely avoid everything that’s happening outside your window and eat oysters instead. The haters (our therapists) might call this dissociation. We call it dinner time. Hit up The Oystermen for whole steamed native lobster, whole cooked Dorset crab, wine, and of course, oysters. Heads up, they’re delivering across London." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"There is a tiny red alarm button in our brain labelled ‘BOUGIE FUN’ that we mentally hit every single time we have oysters. As all seafood fans know, oysters, octopus, and clams, are all dishes that taste exponentially better when you eat them outside in the sunshine. We have no idea why, it’s just a fact. Do a little ‘please don’t piss it down’ dance - or alternatively, check your weather app - and make a booking at The Oystermen. This seafood specialist spot has a huge terrace in the middle of Covent Garden away from any traffic. Book a table at golden hour for peak European city-break feels." - heidi lauth beasley
"If there was ever a time to learn how to cook an entire skate wing at home, it’s now. Covent Garden seafood specialist, The Oystermen, are doing next-day delivery on a big range of their fresh fish as well as other produce like pork chops and a range of vegetables." - oliver feldman, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"Covent Garden isn’t an area usually associated with independent restaurants but this bustling and modestly decorated little spot is thriving. From its tiny open kitchen come oysters, crabs and expertly cooked fish." - Michelin Inspector
"Presented with the Best Restaurant gong at the OFM Awards 2019, Matt Lovell and Rob Hampton initially set up their shucking service as a means to host first-class oyster bars at weddings and events. It’s since grown into one of Covent Garden’s most accomplished and pleasant neighbourhood restaurants, with a rotating selection chalked up on blackboards and buffalo oysters or oysters lardo on the cooked side." - Lucas Oakeley
