Wheeler ’ s Oyster Bar , Whitstable @ wheelersoysterbar
An unmissable pink-painted attribute to the town ’ s high street , which is not only a pretty sight but also a delightful experience for the taste buds . Founded way back in 1856 , it has served delectable morsels and far more than just the famous Whitstable oyster ever since . We recommend visiting their counter which serves mouthwatering arancini ( think succulent crab and prawn ) to make any Italian proud and so many more divine deli-style items . Owner , Delia , learned the art of seafood working alongside her parents , making everything from scratch including bread which is baked on the premises right through to the ice creams . Savour your treats on the beach and watch the sailors of Whitstable Yacht Club create a pictureperfect scene out on the water as you eat .
