You can get all their information direct from the link: hogislandoyster.com
My mom and sister were in for the weekend and when the tall one heard we were going for oysters, of course she jumped aboard that train! The producer is also a big fan as you can see from his happy little face waiting to order up while cradling a Lagunitas IPA.
We prefer to eat our oysters raw with a little mignonette and freshly grated horseradish. If you want horseradish make sure you ask for it here. They also serve BBQ'd oysters here which they BBQ on the half shell with a delicious dollop of compound butter with adobo, garlic, and a laundry list of deliciousness
At Hog Island there are a few picnic tables where you can enjoy your purchase or you can jump on line months in advance and reserve one of the tables closer to the water and shuck your own. You can bring your own extras to make it more of a picnic (we brought 2 salads (recipes to follow later this week), bread and cheese) However they offer all of these things for purchase if you just want to show up. They also sell beer and wine or again it's OK to bring your own.
If you have never tried an oyster I recommend, sometime in your life, you find a place near the water to try one. There is nothing like being on the water while devouring these plump little morsels that taste so briny and oceany!
