Furness Oyster Bar
Included In
The battle cry of this great little seafood stall in Borough Market is “Yyy-oysters, come and get your oyy-sters!”. Banter flies, cash-only deals are offered with old-school charm, and a bed of ice is topped with things that look like deep-sea Pokémon. There are different oysters to choose from and gloriously, they all sound like a marquess in the making—Louët-Feisser, Boudeuse, Gillardeau. The latter are the perfect creamy counterpart for a liberal pour of the zingy, self-serve mignonette. There isn’t any seating so as soon as they’re shucked, it’s ‘shells up’ time.
