Haute Feast is the restaurant at Barnegat Oyster Collective.

The Restaurant

Full-service, a la carte dining at the heart of a working oyster farm

Haute Feast at Barnegat Oyster Collective is a restaurant unlike any other - where dining is an experience.

Here, the harvest shapes the table: oysters pulled from the beds that morning, fish brought in by local fishermen, and vegetables sourced directly from farmers who know their land. 

This is where our farm-to-table philosophy comes to life. Every dish reflects the care, craft, and story of the people who grow and catch the food, prepared to highlight its peak flavor and freshness.  Many dishes are cooked outdoors over open fire, their aroma mingling with salt air, wood smoke, and the breeze off the bay — a direct connection between the land, the water, and the plate.

A Living Menu

Our menu changes with the season and the bounty of the day. Every visit is unique: the catch, the harvest, the fire, and even the light on the water subtly shift the experience.

Each dish is thoughtful, intentional, and designed to reflect its source. Oysters, seafood, and vegetables are showcased at their peak, and each preparation draws you closer to the rhythms of this place. The result is a dining experience that is sensory, alive, and unmistakably tied to the land and water.

The Experience

Tables are arranged to maximize the view, the breeze, and the connection to the farm. Guests watch as fire and skill transform ingredients into dishes that are shared, savored, and remembered.

The experience is relaxed yet intentional, inviting conversation, connection, and presence. Whether joining for lunch, a celebratory dinner, or a quiet evening on the water, the meal is a culinary experience grounded in season, authenticity, and craft.

The sight of the harvest in motion, the sounds of the bay, and the smell of open-fire cooking create a meal that is as much about presence as it is about flavor.

Restaurant Hours

We will be closed for winter break through the end of February.
