Dining at The Oyster Box is an extraordinary experience.

Sublime cuisine using the freshest seasonal ingredients will tempt and delight - of course incredible oysters are on the menu - even for breakfast accompanied by Champagne should you wish! The numerous restaurants and bars offer something for everyone, with fresh seafood, incredible steaks and the famous curry feast. A delicious and indulgent High Tea is also a firm favourite with plenty of treats to tempt you. Dine together overlooking magnificent views, dine privately with a group of friends or dine at the Chef's table and watch the magic happen first hand - there's so much choice.
