Made for a real night out.

Restaurant source first. Every listing sends you to the restaurant’s own menu, event page, or announcement.

“Confirm today” is intentional. It means the offer needs a current check before you make plans.

Before you go

A dollar oyster is usually a timed offer.

Most Boston $1 oyster deals come with a specific service window, bar-only seating, a sell-out limit, or a location restriction. This guide gathers the current offers in one place and sends you to each restaurant’s own page before you go.

  • Check the listed window before leaving; many deals end well before dinner.
  • Open the restaurant’s source link for holiday, seating, and sell-out details.
  • Use the map and address on each listing to choose the closest option.
