History

Oyster Farming has a long history in New Jersey. Since the early 1800’s Delaware Bay has been a prolific source of the eastern oyster, even before its discovery by European settlers. The settlers quickly harvested these oysters in increasing numbers. The oyster industry grew rapidly and the towns along the Delaware Bay grew with it.

With a vast selection of delicious, crisp, locally farmed oysters…we have something that will satisfy anyone’s palate. So come and physically taste the rich history of oyster farming at the Delaware Ave Oyster House.
