Our Fishery is on the shore of Pyefleet Creek on Mersea Island off the coast of Essex, where oysters have been farmed since Roman times. Our oysters lay on the river bed roaming with the mineral rich, brackish tides.
We have been supplying oysters and shellfish to the top restaurants, hotels and to your door for over 54 years. We pride ourselves on only supplying the finest quality seafood both from our own river and further afield.
We have ben busy developing a new oyster; the Colchester Pyefleet our worry free, pre-shucked rock oyster.
A dish that is traditionally served as a the sixth course of a ten course wedding banquet, so that tells you how good it is! We have made it super simple by suggesting you order a cooked lobster.
Deep fried oysters are often associated with Chinese New Year, but a recipe this good should be enjoyed all year round! The oysters are crunchy on the outside and sweet and salty in the inside, just scrumptious!
A take on Sichuan street food, these grilled oysters are fiery with garlic and chilli, but the addition of red pepper, ginger and oyster sauce create a really well balanced topping that is delicious with the sweet and salty oysters.
Although we are an Oyster Farm, we sell much more than just oysters. Our other specialties are lobsters and seafood platters. We pride ourselves on only supplying the finest quality seafood both from our own river and further afield.
We grow oysters in two different ways, we have the wild spat fall from oysters in the river and we buy in oyster seed which is commercially grown oyster spat and comes in a variety of sizes.
We are an oyster farm, first and foremost, that is who we are, what we do and what we love.
