How many oysters do I order?

The number of oysters you’ll need for your event depends on various factors. Most important is the number of guests you are expecting, but there are other things to take into consideration, including budget and time. In turn, the number of oysters and the time we have to Oystertain determine how many Oystertainers there will be. Our Red Oyster experts are here to guide you through the process - we will discuss all these factors with you, and make sure that you have everything you need to make your party a success!

What do you do with guests who don’t like oysters?

We find that a guest who doesn’t like oysters is just a guest who hasn’t met one of our Oystertainers! We take every opportunity to turn a non-oyster lover into an oyster fan. People who have never eaten an oyster are sometimes nervous, or believe they won’t enjoy it. But at Red Oyster, we find that our passion is catching! We explain more about oysters to people who are hesitant. By telling them what to expect regarding taste, structure, and how to eat them, we almost always convince them to try one. It’s an experience they never forget.

Can I ask for a free proposal?

Of course! We know that every event is different. That’s why we will always give you a free, tailor made proposal.

What do you need for the set-up? Should I provide a table?

Our Oystertainers open oysters on the spot as they move around the room, so there is no need to provide a table! They will bring the oysters in a cooler, and a custom Red Oyster backpack with all their equipment. All you need to provide is a small space to store the cooler and the backpack, and a garbage can for the empty shells. We’ll do the rest!

When Covid-19 made a halt to all events we thought of ways to let people still enjoy oysters. For us it’s all about oysters so we came up with an oyster delivery service.

We started with Oysters2Go and people were really happy to order oyster delivery and enjoy freshly shucked oysters at home.

Of course, we strictly follow and respect the CDC guidelines. For example, we have all safety measures in place when packing, opening, and delivering the oysters including face masks, gloves, and sanitized workstations and tools.

Please let us know if you have other seafood preferences than listed in the shop. And if you have more questions regarding Oysters2Go or Oystertainment® or a virtual oyster workshop, contact us!

We’d love to hear from you.
