P.J. Clarke’s Raw Bar:
Lincoln Square
When we say we serve the freshest and finest oysters and clams in any city, we mean it. At P.J. Clarke’s, our raw bar on Lincoln Square offers only the best. Each shipment arrives fresh, within twenty-four hours or less. That dozen shucker’s dozen you’re about to enjoy packs so much flavor, it could practically speak for itself. No shortcuts, just uncompromising quality.
No knockoffs here. You’ve probably seen the ads and those “too good to be true” price tags. At P.J. Clarke’s Lincoln Square raw bar, we partner with premium brands that own trademarked varieties and distribute selectively, so our clams and oysters are as fresh and flavorful as it gets.

Our Sources
We provide you with the finest oysters and clams from the following purveyors:
Blue Island
Blue Island Oyster Co. was founded in 1995 with the aim of providing Manhattan restaurants with the highest quality shellfish available. It all started when the founder began scuba diving for natural oysters in the Long Island Sound and delivering them fresh daily to chefs in New York City. This business has grown substantially in 24 years and is now recognized as the number one oyster and clam distributor in the New York area.
Island Creek
A vertically integrated farm dedicated to making an impact on our food systems and having a damn good time along the way. They operate one of the only shellfish hatcheries in the northeast; a distribution company selling shellfish from over 100 farms to about 700 chefs around the country; a retail business serving thousands of home-shuckers online and at their shops in Duxbury and Portland, ME.

Fishers Island Oyster Farm is a family-owned managed suspension-culture oyster farm based on Fishers Island, NY. They have grown and sold Fishers Island Oysters directly to chefs and consumers for over 30 years, offering absolute freshness, premium quality, and personalized service that are hallmarks of their brand.

Rappahannock
In 2001, Rappahannock set out with a clear mission: to resurrect the native Bay oyster and put it back on the map. Just a little over a decade later, Virginia is seeing harvest tallies not witnessed in a generation, and she now leads the entire East Coast in oyster production. Learn More
War Shore Oyster Company
Started in 2009, War Shore Oyster Company, is named for the Pungoteague Creek which served as an important waterway and battleground during the War of 1812 and supply route during the American Civil War. Every product is delivered by War Shore’s own vehicles from their own HACCP-compliant facility and they work directly with some of the best growers and fishermen in North America to secure the freshest seafood possible for their customers. War Shore is committed to the standard of delivering fresh oysters within 48 hours of harvest — just one of the many ways the company ensures that the freshest products are delivered to the kitchens of the finest chefs.

Local 130
Local 130 Seafood was formed on the basis of giving back to the local coastal communities. They want to put the focus back on the men and women that are laboring our shorelines, fishing our oceans and farming fish on US soil. Local 130 Seafood works hand and hand with American Fishermen to bring their product to market.
