There's A New Oyster Bar On A Historic Ship Docked The Hudson, And It's Awesome

The newly opened Grand Banks isn't your average oyster bar.

For starters, the restaurant - the latest from Diner and Marlow & Sons co-founder Mark Firth- plans to sail south during the winter, according to The New York Times.

Moored at Pier 25 in Tribeca, Grand Banks is built into the historic F/V Sherman Zwicker, a schooner that launched in 1942, fished the North Atlantic, and sailed to South America to trade goods.

Now, it serves delicious oysters, cocktails, and beer, and is already wildly popular since it opened in June. We went aboard to check it out.
