"Those who frequent this Ferndale spot’s popular happy hour know to get there promptly when it opens at 4 p.m., especially on warm summer afternoons. It’s worth the wait and the noise for a well-chosen selection of fresh oysters, flown in daily. The happy hour special usually includes one East Coast and one West Coast oyster for $2 a piece. Diners can add options like $5 rotating shots, $5 beers, $9 select wines, $9 rum punches, and also hand-cut fries for $5 in addition to discounts on fish sandwiches and lobster rolls. It’s one of the best deals in the city. Grab a reservation on Resy, or order ‘em to-go (freshly shucked or shuck ‘em yourself)." - Danny Palumbo
"This Ferndale oyster shack by the tracks offers 2-buck-shucks every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday night. The coastal menu sources sustainable, wild-caught, and responsibly farmed seafood. Dishes like the filet o’ fish sandwich, hush puppies, peel ‘n eat shrimp, and lobster rolls occasionally grace the menu, along with rotating specials that are updated on social media. Reservations are available." - Courtney Burk
"There are oyster happy hours, and there is Voyager’s oyster happy hour. Depending on time, weather, and the whims of the fates, it seems, Voyager offers fantastic deals on oysters, drinks and small bites. The only trick is that there may not be much warning. Lately, though, it’s been a steady bet that 2-buck-shucks on select East Coast bivalves will be available Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights for the lucky few that are able to snag a seat, through reservations or walk-ins. The popular fresh seafood shack also offers happy hour specials on hand-cut fries, $5 pints of beer or a rotating shot, and $9 wine and cocktails. Hours: 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., Tuesday through Thursday" - Mickey Lyons
"You don’t go to Jeffrey’s for the oysters. You’re there for incredible dry-aged steaks in a dining room dressed to the nines. But if you go to Jeffrey’s and don’t order the oysters—breaded and fried to a crispy finish, then served with melted leeks and apple cider emulsion—you’re doing yourself a disservice. These are Gulf oysters done right. You want to be right, don’t you? A table at Jeffrey’s isn’t too difficult to get if you’re OK with dining early or late, but if you want to secure a prime time spot on a Friday or a Saturday night, you’ll want to plan a solid two months in advance when reservations get released. You can also usually grab a seat at the bar if you show up early, where you’ll also unlock access to the bar menu, which includes a very good pan-seared steak." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
"This longtime Ferndale destination in a renovated garage is great for sophisticated yet casual seafood options year-round. Set within a space that offers subtle nautical details in its aesthetic, this coastal cuisine menu utilizes wild-caught, responsibly farmed, and sustainable fish and seafood, including East and West Coast oysters, plus peel-and-eat shrimp. In addition, Voyager also offers a fish and chips plate, featuring halibut from Yakutat, Alaska, malt vinegar frites, cabbage slaw, and plenty of tartar sauce and lemon. Be sure to make reservations on Resy." - Serena Maria Daniels
