An Open Air Oyster Eatery on Gwynn's Island
Welcome to The Hatchery

Our opening day is April 17th!
Check out some of our pre-season events below.

Oyster Seed Holdings, Inc. presents The Hatchery Food Truck — proudly connecting people to today’s dynamic aquaculture industry.
Set on the waterfront of the Milford Haven, our one-of-a-kind oyster experience blends food-truck ordering, an outdoor picnic table dining area, and beer & wine with something you won’t find anywhere else: a working oyster seed facility. Taste a weekly rotating merroir from Virginia farms and see where the story begins — cradle to table.

We also have options for the non-seafood eaters, and beer and wine for purchase to pair with your meal.
