Wheelers Oyster Bar
8 High Street, Whitstable, Kent, CT5 1BQ
About
One of Whitstable's oldest and most famous seafood addresses, a small Victorian-fronted shop on the High Street with a handful of counter seats up front and a tiny back dining room behind. The kitchen also produces its own small range of craft beers with Canterbrew Ltd (a stout, a ruby ale, a pale ale and a gold APA), sold separately through a local off-licence. Given the tight seating, reservations are genuinely worth making rather than turning up and hoping.
