Milford Fall Festival October 9

Visit the Milford Oyster House raw bar tent downtown.

Oysters & Champagne November 26

What could be more elegant than a Night of Oysters & Champagne? The day after Thanksgiving and the third Friday in April are the two nights set aside for enjoying some of nature's most decadent treats.

Each oyster is paired with a unique champagne or sparkling wine. There are also cooked oyster specialties available including Chef Ed's signature oyster dish, Oysters Milford. Chef Ed will choose the fresh oysters based on what is best in the market at the time of the event.

Pricing for the event is by the piece. This enables you to take advantage of what suits your taste and pocket book. If you just want to sample champagnes, you can. If you just want to eat oysters, you can. If someone in your group doesn't like either, our full dining room menu and tavern menu are available. Reservations are highly recommended.

Christmas in Milford December 10

Christmas in Milford is a special town-wide event. After the outdoor activities downtown we invite you to come back to the Oyster House and warm up in the comfort of the dining room or tavern. Free hot chocolate is offered to anyone who cares to indulge.

Amy brings her harp and plays Christmas music and other classical favorites in the dining room. Of course, the restaurant is decorated with our hand-made oyster shell ornaments and wreaths. We have two trees, one filled with food-themed ornaments. The dining room is still a joyous place to relax with friends during the holiday season.

Farm Dinner

We serve local produce as it's available throughout the seasons, but at our annual Farm Dinner to benefit Hunterdon Land Trust Alliance the local produce — and the farmers who produce it — take center stage. This fixed-price, multi-course dinner is composed by Chef Ed around what's available at the Alliance's Farm Market at Dvoor Farm in Flemington.

Tiki Thursdays

Each Thursday in August the back porch of the Oyster House is transformed into a tropical paradise, and Amy dons her grass skirt to set the mood for Tiki Thursdays. Tiki Thursdays are a chance to kick back, relax, and enjoy the best of summer. Frozen drinks reign supreme at the Tiki Bar. Chef Ed uses fresh fruit to concoct at least two different fresh frozen drinks each week. There are special Polynesian-themed Tiki snacks as well as our full menu. We set up full-service table seating for forty-two outside, which is available on a first-come first-serve basis. Live music from 7 until 10 p.m. featuring local musicians is also part of the mix.
