The Oyster Shed is a hidden gem. Even if you don’t like oysters they have an amazing array of other seafood ( prawns lobsters smoked salmon etc). It is a working oyster farm so the oysters are straight from their leases. You sit outside so dress for the weather. Make sure you book as this place gets very busy. The seats are under shade cloth or awnings.

We lucked upon this little gem while waiting for our friends to meet us for lunch. We were going to a rival restaurant but when I saw the location and food on display, we flagged down our friends and opted for The Oyster Shed.
We ordered a bowl of prawns with seafood dressing, a salad and two rolls with which to make our prawn rolls. It was delicious.
All the staff were super friendly and very patient with us as we ordered our food. The staff all seemed passionate about what they were doing as did Deb, the owner. As we went on a Thursday, it wasn’t very busy so we were able to enjoy the relaxed vibe. The weather was perfect which also added to the ambiance.
The location is perfect if you live in on The North Shore of Sydney and want to meet friends from the Central Coast. It is about half way. We will definitely be returning.

Lots of good comments about this one. Therefore, we paid a visit on the way from Sydney to Newcastle. Unfortunately, it was raining but there were still lots of customers. The foods were up to standard as usual seafood restaurant in Australia. However, if next time I am not passing through on my way, I will not go there again.

Being 1 minute off the M1 at the Mooney Mooney exit, it's conveniently located for a light lunch or just to pick up the freshest possible. locally grown, Hawkesbury River oysters. That's what I did. Picked up our seafood supplies for our weekend away on the Central Coast from the Oyster Shed on the way passed. Yum! What a great decision!

I called in to collect an order on Christmas Eve. The staff were delightful. One lady Carrie was very helpful and informative about local knowledge and produce.
The view here is beautiful, and I would highly recommend making a booking to go and sample the fresh seafood, I came away with not only seafood but a range of cheese, oils and other goodies too.
Well done to the staff for being so accommodating and helpful on Christmas Eve. We look forward to being able to visit in the New Year
