Had a shellfish poker: clam chowder, mussel toast, scallop crudo and oysters. Everything was creative, well balanced, flavorful and very fresh. They had outside seating available, but they were kind to let us come in with our old small dog. They have a good kids menu available. The service was fast and warm at all times, even when they got busy.
Fun place with delicious oysters! We also had the tinned fish plate & chowder. All excellent. Sarah took care of us. We also met Amy. We'll be back!
Amazing food. I had a kelp, black bean, and corn soup that was superb. The prices are amazing during happy hour. Kelp foods are really delicious, like the kelo tacos. All the veggies are extremely fresh and aromatic. Everything is perfectly cooked. I couldn't be happier.
Stopped in a couple weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised by the upbeat bartender rite off the batt. 3 different oyster options, which we tried them all and they were spectacular!! Also the Scallop Crudo was also absolutely amazing!! Fresh fresh fresh !! Also had some chowder and house pickled veggies which were fun. Cocktails are on point and proper.
Come here if you want some of the freshest oysters you'll ever have. Locally sourced seafood makes for a great dinner!
The Freeport Oyster Bar is located at 43 Main Street in downtown Freeport, Maine. It used to be a carriage barn & it's now a cozy, little spot to enjoy fresh, local cuisine. This restaurant is known as a raw seafood bar, but it's so much more! They also serve delicious 'chowdah' & soups, 'lobstah' rolls & salads. They have some interesting signature cocktails, as well as wine & beer selections. To start off, I enjoyed the best clam chowder I've ever eaten in Maine! It's served with sourdough bread. Then I had some very fresh raw oysters, harvested locally & served with their own house mignonette sauce & lemon. The fish dip was delicious! The Freeport Oyster Bar has seasonal, outdoor seating. Plan accordingly because they don't accept reservations. They're closed on Wednesdays & serve brunch on Sundays. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!
Great atmosphere, staff and food. Oysters were outstanding! Second visit and plan on going back. Thank you Sarah, Sam, Emma and Mr. Butter!
Best Chowder I've ever tasted! Chunky seafood meat! Fresh Oysters and Veggies were so good! Overall experience and atmosphere made you feel at home. Service was excellent and plenty of seating available. If you're in Maine make sure to stop by, enjoy the fresh food, drinks, relax and chat. I wish they were closer to my home.
