How they taste: Wellfleets are well renowned for their intensely briny taste (think big blast of ocean water) and clean finish.  They also have a defined vegetal undertone from the bottom planting. Well-defined adductor muscles and plump, juicy meats make for a tender, chewy bite.

Why they're unique: Wellfleet is a famed oyster town!  There are over 100 small growers in Wellfleet, many of whom work alongside their family members, keeping the old-fashioned farming traditions alive.  We select oysters from seven top-notch growers in the Wellfleet shellfish community to provide the classic New England oyster experience.

Varied experience

"Sometimes you'll get wellfleets that are incredible, with deep cups and consistent sizes and nice big meats. Other times you'll get dinks. They are always salty so if you like that, not sure what other option is saltier"
