The Best Places to Get Oysters in New Hampshire

Maybe you are a "texture person". You are repulsed by foods that feel slimy or weird in your mouth. Rice pudding? Not for you! Cottage cheese? We couldn't pay you to eat the stuff. And oysters? Why would you be caught dead eating little boogers on the half shell? Well, because they are delicious, that's why! I used to be very scared of oysters. I probably didn't start eating them until I was 25, but now I can't get enough. The brinier the better!

National Oyster Day is coming up in August, and because I am not allowed to indulge this year due to the baby growing in my belly, I need to you to eat enough for both of us.

I have comprised a list of the best oysters you can get in the Granite State so you can celebrate the holiday appropriately. Or should I say, SHELL-E-BRATE?! Bahahahaha! I crack myself up.

Row 34 – Portsmouth, NH

These are some of the freshest oysters that will ever grace your lips! They are so good you don't even need cocktail sauce. Plus, if you are feeling fancy, you can get some caviar on there. Oysters with caviar = heaven on earth.

Windjammers – Rochester, NH

This one is a suggestion from our listener Laura! She didn't specify if they specialize in fried oysters or oysters on the half shell. Honestly, I am down for either.
