And while oyster bars aren’t as common as they once were in this area, there are still a number of great restaurants to visit for fresh oysters — many of which serve full-flavored oysters harvested from the Delaware Bay.Oyster House Oyster House on Sansom Street has the best, most expertly shucked selection of oysters around, plus great fried oysters. They frequently serve a half-dozen varieties, including oysters from the Delaware Bay, Maine, Long Island, Cape Cod, Canada, and more, so there’s lots from which to choose. Happy hour runs Tuesday through Friday from 4 to 6 p.m. at the oyster bar. During happy hour, a rotating oyster costs $2 a pop. Don’t forget to tip your shucker.
