Hannah Woods of Dawson's and Shuck Yeah

“There's nothing I enjoy more than curating an event for people that love oysters.”

Meet Hannah, the dynamo behind the scenes at Dawson’s Oyster Supplies. With over 16 years in hospitality, Hannah’s journey began in the bustling bars of Sydney. From there, she took her talents to Canada and the USA, where she opened and managed venues. A lifelong oyster lover, she jumped at a golden opportunity in 2021, and the rest is history.

Now at the helm of Dawson’s Oyster Supplies in Warners Bay, Lake Macquarie, Hannah continues the Dawson’s legacy. Dawson’s has been a cornerstone for restaurants in Lake Macquarie, Newcastle and the Hunter Valley for decades, known for our impeccably prepared and presented oysters.

A trusted name in oysters

Why choose us over any other oyster supplier?

Here are just some of the reasons restaurants, venues, event planners and other caterers rely on us for freshly shucked oysters at their events.

Quality you can rely on

We’ve built relationships with our oyster growers, who are all second and third-generation oyster farming families from Port Stephens, Forster and the Manning River.

We also seasonally work with farmers in Merimbula and the South Coast, sourcing you the finest Sydney Rock and Pacific Oysters in NSW.

Locally shucked

We shuck all of our oysters onsite at Warners Bay, Lake Macquarie. This ensures the oysters we supply are fresh every day.

As Lake Macquarie and Newcastle's only local oyster processing facility, we work under a strict set of requirements outlined by the Department of Primary Industries. This guarantees that the oysters at your next event are freshly shucked, risk-free and delicious.
