LinkLinks Washingtonian: Rappahannock Oyster Bar Opens a Scenic Waterfront Location at the DC Wharf By Editor On Dec 3, 2018 Last updated Jun 10, 2019 72 Share In the early 1900s, Chesapeake watermen dredged the Bay’s bottom for wild oysters and brought their hauls to DC’s “Fish Wharf” on the Southwest Waterfront. Now over a century later, a modern breed of oystermen are setting up shop in the same (albeit very different) place. Cousins Travis and Ryan Croxton of Rappahannock Oyster Co. have rebuilt the Wharf’s historic Oyster Shucking Shed and opened a branch of their popular bivalve bar across from the Maine Avenue Fish Market. historic preservationRestaurantsSouthwestThe Wharf 72 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
