Jerry Fraser 2025 Winner

If there is a name that’s synonymous with the best bivalves and our appetite for them, it’s Jerry Fraser, dubbed the King of Oysters. This isn’t mere hyperbole. Now into his fourth decade as an oysterman, Fraser has shucked millions over years spent in venues from London to Perth. And while diners and drinkers are drawn to his residencies at bars and restaurants across the city, it’s his work inside the industry that really shines. Ask those who have worked in his orbit, and they’ll tell you he is passionate about training the next generation and imparting great hospitality knowledge to the teams around him.
