No summer meal is complete without a few, or more likely, a dozen, fresh oysters, and Massachusetts is home to some of the most popular varieties, frrom Wellfleet to Barnstable.
Oysters are easy to toss down the hatch, but not to so easy on your wallet. Typically, an order of the popular shellfish can rack up your bill no matter where you choose to dine. Luckily, there’s an abundance of Boston restaurants that offer $1 oyster deals. We’ve updated our guide, organized by days of the week, so you can plan out your next oyster crawl.
