Your oysters keep in the refrigerator for 5-7 days! You can order a day or two early to make sure you have them in time for your gathering. They are totally fine hangin’ out in the cool air.
When you receive your package, pull them out of the box (these guys need a little fresh air!). Grab a mixing bowl and throw the mesh bag in the bowl so that the oysters don’t leak all over your refrigerator. Grab a damp cloth and throw the cloth over the bowl. You are good to go for the next 5-7 days. Doesn’t hurt to dampen the cloth each day to keep them moist and chilled.
Only put the oysters on ice before service. The oysters will actually die in the melted fresh water so do not store the oysters on ice. They will not like this.
We ship using FedEx Overnight service. You will receive tracking info after the label has been printed the day before your oysters are set to arrive. We do not require a signature – Fedex will leave your package at your doorstep.
Short answer: YES!

Northern Belle Oysters from Prince Edward Island are known for their deep cups, perfect size, and delicious flavor. Customers appreciate the clean, solid shells and the fresh burst of ocean saltiness followed by a savory umami. These oysters are grown in the cold waters of North Lake, which contributes to their strong shells and unique taste.

"Shells are relatively clean and quite easy to shuck without breaking. The overall size is right at that 2. 5" Very salty up front, really lovely flavors at the end, umami & sea water, a lovely combination. I wouldn't call them plump, but this makes for a very approachable oyster for the unaccustomed oyster eater. These are dainty, elegant, and delicious. If you're after a plump, substantial oyster, these might not be the best bet."
"Ordered the Northern Belle Oysters as a new addition to our traditional Christmas eve dinner. They arrived perfectly packed and were amazing. They will probably become an every year part of our dinner."
"Have bought from Island Creek many times but never again, Got notice that "i left stuff in my cart" so rushed to order again as thought didnt go thru, but it did and sent 2 orders to my customer. Costly and embarrassing. . . . . ."
"Small briny taste like the sea! Amazing"
"These were EXCELLENT! Fresh, clean, perfect salinity , deep cups, easy to shuck and meaty! What more can you ask for from an Oyster???We enjoyed them with visiting friends over labor day; Raw and Oysters Rockefeller! Always one of my favorites!!"
"good size salinity, sweetness, and finish. PEI’s are always the best of any in the world. ."
"Just finished the last 14 watching football today. These were excellent oysters. Easy to shuck wonderful taste and they were fine eating them over a 9 day period. Next time I may buy a hundred to have for Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Thursday football."
"These were perfect oysters, some of my favorites I've gotten from Island Creek so far. They were a little bring up front and then had a sweet finish. They were a little tougher to shuck than other oysters but flavor made it worth it. We got them shipped on Wed and by Monday they were still perfectly fresh."
"Oysters were delicious! Our 5th time ordering from your company…we will continue. Thank you!"
"I was suspect of ordering oysters for delivery but I'm a big fan of Island Creek and figured that they would do it right. The oysters arrived on time, as advertised, and were delicious, all 50 of them. Not a bad one in the batch. Nice and briny and surprising minerally finish for a mid-summer oyster (there's no "r" in July!) I won't hesitate to order again."
