Our Flagship oyster, grown right here in Duxbury, Massachusetts. We may be biased, but we think these oysters are pretty damn near perfect. The quintessential East Coast oyster, they’re consistent yet complex, with up-front notes of ocean brine and seaweed, and a smooth, sweet finish. Deep cups encourage plump meats for a toothy, chewy bite you can really sink your teeth into. Well balanced from beginning to end, these oysters are ideal for oyster newbies and seasoned pros alike.

"I ordered 200 oysters for my husband’s 30th birthday party and it was an absolute success! The oysters shipped quickly and arrived all in perfect condition! The cups were large, meaty and had great flavor! I would describe them as clean, some salinity, and sweet! We will definitely order these again!"
"I wanted to love these but they arrived very muddy, sandy, and misshapen. Even after a lot of deep scrubbing, most of the oysters still ended up with sand in their flesh, and the liquor muddy brown. The shape of most of them were flat and twisted, so shucking was a pain, with a number of the shells breaking apart and the oyster needing to be salvaged somehow. These were nothing like the ones we enjoyed at the farm."
"This was our second time ordering and they were very good…. but this time we had issues with brittle shells…. and for some reason (probably our rookie shucking) we kept getting a dime size piece of shell left connected after popping the top. It didn’t happen at all on our first order but it happened on 60-70% of these even being very careful. We ended up using a paring knife which helped some. Still, the freshness, quality and taste was incredible. We’ll be back!"
"Some friends and I vacationed in South Carolina and had 150 oysters delivered to out VRBO! I ordered three different kinds and we had a little feast! The Buttercups were the winner! Delicious! (Some of the Island Creeks were dry with no brine at all. I tossed those…) But the rest were amazing. Love your customer service and love how reliable you always are. Thank you so much for always providing such a delicious treat!!!"
"I was severely disappointed in the oysters we received. They were very thin and barely filled out the shell. It took 3, on average, to equal 1 normal sized oyster. Even the larger shells we’re seemingly empty. The liquor was so salty and bitter that we had to rinse them off before consuming."
"Great product all around; as usual. Our first time getting the ‘large’ variety. You can still enjoy them raw, but they aren’t as sublime as the younger/smaller versions. Perfect on the grill or in the oven for Oysters Rockefeller! I’d say 60% were large, 30% were extra large, and 10% were huge. Same flavor profile across the board though. Will definitely purchase again. I would keep in mind oysters of that age/size aren’t as resilient as younger oysters, so be prepared to eat them within the first 3 days or so. -In my opinion"
"Oysters arrived overnight were fresh but not outstanding in flavor, some had very little oyster liquor inside and one was spoiled. Overall not up to the quality I expect from Island Creek"
"We ordered the oysters to celebrate a milestone anniversary. They arrived as promised and were amazing! I was also surprised to find the partnership mignonette seasoning between Island Creek Oysters and Spicewalla was available at a local chef center (and is also available on the Island Creek website). The seasoning was a perfect compliment! As a sidenote: we ordered from Island Creek once before and shipping was delayed a few days. The company stood behind their product and gave us a refund, which gave us confidence in ordering again. Thank you!"
"I sent to my friend who loves oysters and lives in Montana and they were a perfect birthday surprise. Fast shipping makes them taste so fresh!"
"Love the Duxbury oysters. A favorite, up there with Damariscotta"
