Description
Wheelers Oyster Bar was founded in 1856 by a man called Richard Leggy Wheeler who started as a Dredger Man and by 1850 was a Master Mariner in his own right. In 1856 his entrepreneurial spirit got the better of him and Wheelers Oyster Bar was born. Much later in 1929, a man named Bernard Walsh opened up Wheelers in Old Compton Street, London which went on to be the flag ship for a group of restaurants called Wheelers throughout London. Wheelers Oyster Bar in Whitstable is still standing to this day, steeped with 165 years of history, unlike its counter parts in London who sadly diminished over the years leaving us to be the first and the last one standing.
