Oyster happy hours in Melbourne

The Oyster Bar by Aptus Seafood at South Melbourne Market offers the freshest oysters straight from the ocean. It's not a happy hour situation, either – they're serving those $1.30 oysters from the early hours right into the evening. If you're feeling extra opulent, purchase a dozen for $15 and rest easy knowing they're sourced directly from farmers – expect Coffin Bay oysters from South Australia or Blackmans Bay oysters from Tasmania. Plus the bar offers lemon, hot sauce, vinegar and other sauces to dress up those briny morsels. 

Head to the sky at Transit Bar's notable rooftop and take advantage of $2 oysters and petite cocktails priced at $8 from 3pm-close on Wednesdays and Fridays.

East Melbourne's French brasserie and wine bar Hemingway's Wine Room is offering posh punters the chance to spend an opulent two hours every Wednesday between 5pm and 7pm knocking back $2 oysters with mignonette and lemon with $15 glasses of Billecart-Salmon Brut Réserve Champagne NV. Looking for something different? There's sparkling sake or prosecco available by the glass too.

You can get $2 oysters at this French CBD gem from noon until 7pm, Tuesday to Friday in the bar. C'est magnifique! 

This isn't an oyster happy hour, but you can enjoy a boujee oyster at the Atlantic in Crown for $3.50 a pop in an opulent setting from noon to 10pm every day.

Snag a $2 oyster every Wednesday from 5pm until late and all day every Sunday at Windsor wine bar Galah.
