The 42nd St. Oyster Bar is one of the South's most famous landmark restaurants, satisfying thousands of grateful patrons since its humble beginnings in 1931 as a grocery store offering oysters and draft beer. Over the past seven decades, 42nd St. Oyster Bar has become renowned as one of the South's most legendary landmark restaurants with a heritage dating back to humble beginnings in 1931 as a grocery store serving oysters and, after prohibition ended in 1933, draft beer. In fact, 42nd St. Oyster Bar was the first business in North Carolina’s capital city of Raleigh to serve draft beer in a frosted mug.
