Formerly, The Wellfleet Oyster House. The original structure houses the main dining room and it dates back to 1750.

Through the years additions were made to the building as it went from residence to restaurant. T
There were quite a few popular restaurants here, but one of the most beloved was, undeniably, the Wellfleet Oyster House. We LOVE The Wicked Oyster, wonderful dinners and fabulous breakfasts. It’s best to RESERVE a table ahead of time.

Surprisingly good fresh fish – BYOB - looks like a little touristy but that's a good thing. They do have great food, reasonable prices and so kid friendly!
If there is a long line, no worries it goes fast OR OPT to do TAKE OUT and bring back to the house for an outdoor picnic! It's worth the trip!
