Opened in 2022 at 46 Devonshire Road by Sasha Mantel, John Robinson and Rob Gillon, The Whistling Oyster trades as a fishmonger's counter in the morning and a seafood bar in the afternoon and evening. Fish and shellfish are sourced daily from day-boats and wholesalers, with the board changing according to what has come in that morning, and free local delivery is offered to nearby addresses. The business is registered as The Whistling Oyster Chiswick Limited, with a related company, The Whistling Oyster (Fishmongers) Limited, tied to the same address. The fishmonger counter opens Tuesday to Saturday 10am-4pm and Sunday midday-4pm, while the seafood bar serves oysters, crab and other shellfish Thursday to Saturday midday-10pm and Sunday midday-6pm. The shop sits a five-minute walk from Turnham Green station on a stretch of Devonshire Road that has seen several small independent food shops open since the early 2020s.
