The Oyster Shack Devon
Rewind 28 years and The Shack actually housed an oyster farm…
Bursting with row upon row of oyster purification tanks, the oysters would be cleansed after maturing in the River Avon and oyster lovers would arrive in droves to buy their fresh molluscs, bringing with them a packed lunch, shucking their own oysters and tucking in with some crusty bread and a bottle of wine (or two).
People would pitch up their own deckchairs and while away an afternoon in the peace and quiet of the Avon Valley. Thus in a (quite literally) organic way, The Oyster Shack was born. Keeping this ethos alive, we have extended on to the concrete patch and house a restaurant both inside and outside – winters are rustic and cosy inside by our roaring fire whilst Summertime is enjoyed al fresco outdoors.
There are 5 golf courses located within twelve miles of our restaurant.
WE PRIDE OURSELVES ON OUR MANY AWARDS.
Most recently AA Rosette, Trip Advisor Excellence, Good Food Guide.
As seen in Devon Life this month, we traditionally smoke and cure our seafood on site in our hand built wooden smoker…
Our shackcuterie board featuring a selection of smoked & cured delights is a must try!
Enjoy al fresco summer seafood feasting at The Shack every day of the week – we’ve just launched our daily BBQ section of the menu.
You can now book our pop up oyster trough and captain shuckers for your event – from summer garden parties to weddings.
A selection of oyster toppings available and many other seafood options.
