Testimonials
Fresh oysters, and so much more.
I love Clausen Oysters. This is primarily a take out service. Under new ownership, the oysters are cleaner, and oh so delicious.
Also available you will find, in the freezer, oyster stew, some fish, and local meats. I am told there are plan to offer oyster stew and beer -perfect apres hike fare. Also in the cooler are smoked oysters.
Oregon oysters can be huge compared to varieties from the East Coast. A medium oyster is upto 6" long, so if you're used to East Coast style oysters, order the small or extra small. You can get them shucked or not, and Oregon oysters are stubborn devils, so I always buy shucked.
Also available on the counter are hot sauces, jams and cranberry products. They will also set you up with oyster shooters, but no gin or vodka is served to accompany - yet.

Best oysters in Oregon
Clausens grows the best tasting oysters in Oregon. Oysters are available raw in shell and in half pints, pints, and quarts. If you love oysters, be sure and visit Clausens. This is not a restaurant, but a great place to pick up some oysters for snacking or to make oyster stew.

I am addicted!
Best oysters! Even better than back home in Tomales Bay. The oysters are much bigger and tastier. I am definitely addicted to them. And here I get more bang for my bucks plus the ladies at the counter were very friendly and efficient. Only bad thing is I'm a 9 hour drive away.

Amazing oysters, amazing people!
The sweet smoked oysters were my favorite. The "small" raw oysters were huge and SO fresh! The staff was wonderful. They answered all our questions, let us sit outside, and brought us a beautiful giant tray of raw shucked oysters! Great place!

A good rule for longer shelf-life is to treat all fresh and frozen shellfish like ice cream. Don't leave shellfish in the trunk of your car, get them into the refrigerator as soon as possible. Optimum storage temp for shucked oysters is 32-36 °F. and fresh oysters in the shell should be 33-40 °F. Fresh oysters need to be stored cup side up to retain the oyster liquor inside. This is because oysters drip sea water at clock like intervals after being removed from the sea. They react with the flood and ebb tides, as in their natural environment.
