]]> The members of OSSC have participated in reef restoration projects funded by the USDA. Most of the growers are planting oysters in areas that are in the same body of water as their farms, at growing sanctuaries designated by the Department of Environmental Management. Oyster larvae attach themselves to empty shells in a lab. The OSSC farmers take these oysters attached to shells back to their farms and raise them until they grow to about an inch in size. At this point, the oysters and shells are ready for planting. Every year, Rob Krause, Jim Arnoux and Nick Papa plant these oysters in piles measuring 10 feet square within established reef sites.

]]> Wharf Pub – We are a Craft Beer and Comfort Food restaurant in the heart of Downtown Newport featuring from-scratch cooking and live music on the weekends! We buy as much local food and beer as possible and focus on remaining a local destination in a very tourist-driven part of town. Our restaurant features 2 bars off-seaon and a 3rd on our covered porch come spring with over 30 draft beer lines combined.

We always sell Matunuck Oysters as our house selection but do rotate in a featured oyster always from New England with many from RI, CT and MA. We love fresh local seafood and in a location like Newport it’s crazy to go too far for your seafood.

]]> The Lobster Bar is located at the end of Bowen’s Wharf in the center of Downtown Newport. We boast the best sunset in town. We have an outdoor deck perfect for a cool lunch or romantic sunset dinner along with an indoor bar and dining room. The Lobster Bar was once Aquidneck Lobster which was a wholesale fish market for seventy years. The space became the Lobster Bar in 2012 and is now used as a restaurant and a venue for private events. The Lobster Bar still has a small wholesale business in the front that customers can pick up the freshest live lobsters, shellfish, and fish. We have an all new, indoor raw bar. We offer Ninigret oysters along with other varieties. The raw bar also has shrimp cocktail, littlenecks, chilled lobster and crab claws.
