Where to find Apalachicola Oysters

[kathydwells]

We were wondering where the best place to find Apalachicola Oysters is in SoWal. Any recommendations would be highly appreciated!

Do you want to shuck your own or sit down and be served?
We get a box from Buddy's seafood at the intersection of Hwy 79 and 98 in PCB on our way to 30a. Or, sometimes we get from Shrimpers. Best as I can tell, the same truck delivers all along the route. Hurricanes happy hour is great for sitting down and letting someone do the work for you.

Love me some Appalach oysters.

p.s. Be prepared for sticker shock this week. Lots of oyster folks are now working for BP instead of harvesting oysters.

You can get boxes of fresh, unshucked oysters at Goat Feathers. They are all from Apalachicola. They'll sell you as many as you want - just ordered 3 dozen for the family.

Goatfeather's is our goto place for oysters!

but just about any seafood place around here serving oysters on the half shell are serving Appalachicola oysters, at least that's been my experience.

Thank you for the replies. Tim the one in our tribe that was asking found them for $5.00 a dozen at Goatfeather's Restaurant today. He said they had them for this price before 6:00pm. He said the 2 dozen he ate today were wonderful!

Dusty's on Front Beach Road about a long block west of Pier Park's restless (and chain driven) hubub. Cold oysters from the Apalchicola oyster beds, colder beers and friendly staff. Two dozen and a cold Bud for under $15 at 11am last week. Yum, burp, er, yum....
