Wright Brothers Oyster and House, SE1

Pleasingly, this Market shopfront for Cornish oyster fishery Wright Brothers honours its beer friendly surroundings by foregrounding porters and stouts as the ideal accompaniment to the company’s principle product. The drinks lists goes considerably beyond the obvious Draught Guinness in offering an impressive choice of the dark stuff, appropriately enough for an outlet a stone’s throw from the site of what was once one of the greatest brewers in the world, Barclay Perkins. Suppliers include local brewers Kernel and Redchurch as well as Anchor, Harviestoun, Palmers (the oyster stout commissioned by celebrity chef Mark Hix), Meantime, Pitfield, St Peter’s and Whitstable. Decent lager and Kernel IPA are on sale for the roasted malt-shy, and then there’s the more expensive but equally traditional matching option of champagne.

Five varieties of oysters are served, as well as mussels, shrimps, crab, various fish and beef, Guinness and oyster pie: vegetarians will find themselves rather at sea, and prices nudge into posh territory. Non-diners might be able to squeeze themselves a stool at the bar at quiet times, but this is a small, intimate place with the limited table space reserved for diners, perhaps taking advantage of the seductive bivalve’s reputed aphrodisiac properties, and pre-booking is advised.
