Maldon rock oysters

Maldon rock oysters are oysters that are sustainably grown and harvested from the oyster beds in Maldon, Essex. The oysters are characterized by their distinct flavor and meatiness, which is a result of growing in salt marshes. It’s recommended to enjoy them on the half-shell, but the oysters can also be fried in a pan or topped with various ingredients and baked.


These oysters take three years to grow to market size. For the best experience, serve them on a bed of ice and samphire, and then add a squeeze of lemon juice, a splash of Tabasco sauce, or a drizzle of shallot vinegar on top.
