Discover the unique oyster farming history of the Haward family, and mail order our award winning Mersea oysters, or pick them up from our stand at Borough Market, London.

Richard Haward's Oysters supply some of the finest oysters in the world. For eight generations we have been cultivating our Mersea oysters in the River Blackwater, purifying them with that same sea water, giving them their unique and remarkable flavour. 

Borough Market

Borough Market is situated in Southwark, near London Bridge, and is a bustling hub of foodie delights. We orginally began selling our Mersea oysters at the market in the early 2000's, and saw the city's love for our oysters grow. We have a permanent stand on Stoney Street, which enables us to provide a place for people to sit and slurp our delicious mollusc. We are also licenced, so come and enjoy a chilled glass of wine to accompany your oysters. See below for our opening times, and then come and visit us! We're looking forward to seeing you.

We have 14 acres of oyster layings in the creeks surrounding West Mersea in Essex.

Cultivating oysters is about respecting nature and honouring the history of this unique industry.

Our passion is to deliver, not simply an oyster, but a food story.
