I was going to buy some fish there but the owner was being so rude to people i decided to skip it. There are better businesses to spend your money at.

Our first time here. We came because of the reviews. We had the halibut fish and chips with traditional coating. It was delicious! The coleslaw was tasty. It is more like a fish market but there was plenty of seating. It
reminds me of being at the coast, but cleaner. The gals working here were kind and helpful. It seemed a little pricey, but it was worth it. We would definitely come again.

20:35 23 Feb 25

Friendly service! I had the Cajun sturgeon fish and chips and it was delicious. Loved the coleslaw, fries were hot and crispy.

Would recommend!

20:01 11 Feb 25

This is our second visit here as we drive through this section of the Gorge and will become a frequent stop for us.

Great place for hospitality, food and atmosphere. We ordered the halibut - with chips and a sandwich.

Front desk was very helpful and friendly.

Smoked Sockeye Salmon is amazing!

Highly recommended!

Stopped here just by chance and hunger and was blown away with great service, quality fish, and variety. We will definitely be back!

We enjoyed:

Alaskan Halibut fish and Chios (battered in house and not greasy or over battered at all. Fish was fresh and best I've had across the country and even London. Coleslaw was awesome. Huckleberry lemonade was my wife's favorite. Stop here when you are in the area, you won't be disappointed!

21:19 18 Jan 25

We decided to visit based on the reviews, but I'm not sure I was eating the same dishes. The halibut fish and chips were so dry that we needed a knife to cut through it. The shrimp platter tasted like frozen food, and the ceviche resembled more of a shrimp salad. We couldn't finish the meal and didn't even bother taking the leftovers. Would not return.

14:59 18 Jan 25

06:54 10 Jan 25

I order halibut fish and chips $23 around lunch time plus a strange tasting beer
The fish did not taste like halibut. Something cheaper. It was only Ok. Fries and coleslaw was good.

03:38 06 Jan 25

Awesome food and service. A bit pricey, but it was alright.

No wait in the winter lunch hours.

They’re amazing.! I love Cod fish and chips, my husband loves clam strips, my sons love chicken fingers, and my daughter loves smoked salmon quesadillas. We’re all happy to be there. Our server lady was super sweet and generous. Halloween decorations are fantastic! Kids had a great time. Absolutely loved this place.

13:52 21 Sep 24

We made an impromptu stop for lunch here after a morning exploring the Historic Columbia Scenic Highway.
A perfect bookend to that drive with excellent fish dishes!
We had a shrimp Po’boy and a Cod fish and chips. Both were crispy and delicious, with a good flavour and the fish still succulent. Even the fries were excellent with a very good crust. Highly recommend!

14:47 20 Sep 24

I would not be able to say enough good things or reasons you should stop at this establishment. If you love seafood or even like seafood it is a must stop. The smoked salmon is delicious and my son loved the fried fish. They had fresh lemonade with berries that was very flavorful and refreshing. The staff knows hospitality and I felt well taken care of. Indoor and outdoor seating available. They even gave me ice for my to go smoked fish for my cooler! I try to make this spotna stop on my trip out West every year now. Highly recommend!

04:16 08 Sep 24

Sitting alongside the Columbia River, this is a great place to grab a bite to eat. Great outdoor dining which is both kid and dog friendly. The grilled halibut and ceviche were both very fresh. I didn't try the Oysters, not my thing, but my daughter found them very fresh as well.

My family and I passed this lovely place during our 5-week road trip through the north west. Our kids got the fish and chips, and my wife the smoked salmon ciabatta. I got their new salmon burger which was very tasty! See photo. Also the fries are nice and crunchy. Definitely recommend dropping by here if you get the chance.

19:13 19 Feb 22

Brigham is a must for fresh fish to take home and a yummy lunch.

The chowders are top-shelf. Fish & chips are super tasty. The freshest fish outside of going to the coast .. so bring your cooler w/ice if you are driving through the Gorge! Stop in to beautiful Cascade Locks and support a Native owned business!

06:31 15 Feb 22

So excited to have found this place!!
Picked up some sturgeon over the weekend.
I love supporting local business owners!
Cooked up the sturgeon tonight for dinner. 😋

04:31 03 Feb 22

We miss this place a lot. It's a very friendly and family vibe fish market that have the best and friendliest owners/staff. That alone kept us coming back but the fish and chips, you will NOT find an equal. I took my in laws here when they visited and both agreed. Thank you for sharing joy through your tasty food! I live in California now but I will be back to visit the gorge just for you guys!

22:44 21 Nov 21

Popped in after scenic drive down highway 30 to view gorgeous falls through the Columbia River Gorge. The little fish market was bustling on a brisk Sunday afternoon. Great service — enjoyed a delicious Smothered Ciabatta, toasted roll topped with chowder and smoked salmon. After visiting the Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria, we revere fisherman and appreciate what they do to bring in the catch of the day!

Really, really excellent fish and chips. The breading is light and has a subtle sweet herb I could not place - cinnamon? Allspice? Nutmeg? I don't know - owner, tell me please! The halibut was moist and flaky. 4 stars only because I would have liked a couple more fresh fish options to take home, but I may be out of season.

01:12 10 Oct 21

This is my favorite place to go get food in Cascade Locks! The food is delicious I recommend the salmon or sturgeon that is locally sourced! Cajun style fish & chips is my go to EVERY TIME!

The staff is also so sweet! They also come up to our table and ask if everything is going good (IT IS! :) and it's a beautiful small business to support.

Make sure you tip good!! 😋

We got off I84 specifically to find fish sold by tribal fisherfolks, and we weren't disappointed after finding Brigham Fish Market! We bought fresh fillets of salmon, smoked salmon, and a super rich brownie. The gal who served us was super helpful and vacuum packed our fillers. Definitely will return, especially since we need to try the fish and chips now! ❤❤❤

Raven Rutherford

15:43 15 Sep 21

WOW!! I had their halibut and chips and I wanted more. Like a lot more. I couldn't have eaten much more because the portion size was perfect but I definitely would have liked another serving, of course they would have to roll me out of their outdoor dining area. It was a great meal a fair price and service with a smile. I can't wait to eat there again. Thank you Brigham Fish Market, Raven Rutherford

00:09 10 Sep 21

My husband and I decided to go to the Brigham fish market based on the reviews it has received. The food was good but the attitude of the person who took our order was abhorrent. It was necessary to pay upfront and I shouldn't have given a tip at all. The drink list did not indicate whether the beer was tap or can(I should have assumed can) and when my husband asked for the glass to be filled more she said it was out of a can. OK we are fine with that but then she went to the back and told everyone working back there in a sassy attitude that he wanted his glass filled. She assumed that I have bad hearing, well I don't. I could hear the whole thing. We try to support small business and we understand they are short staffed during COVID. We were the only people ordering at the time. I will never recommend this restaurant to anyone. You do not treat your customers in that fashion if you want to stay in business. Teach your employees some respect.

What a wonderful way to wrap up a day. We had the cod fish and chips which were delicious 😋. And the coleslaw. . . out of this world 🌎! I can’t wait to come back to try the steelhead fish’s and chips. The owner and her daughters are absolutely delightful and they are pet friendly. This is a prime example of a focused menu prepared to perfection.

22:00 29 Aug 21

I enjoyed dinner at the Brigham Fish Market on each of the two nights I recently spent in Cascade Locks (8/20 & 8/21). The food was outstanding, and the service was excellent. In spite of being short staffed both nights, Marisa took the time to answer all of our questions & made sure our group of 4 were served promptly & with a generous helping of friendliness. Love her positive attitude. A total asset to the business.

13:43 12 Aug 21

Saw this place on tiktok. Took a day trip to check it out. Me and my wife were not disappointed. Great food. The place seamed to always have a line and nice outdoor seating with nice views of the river. Service was good and pleasant. We sill have to take another day trip out there for sure.

We're staying in Stevenson for a few days, and we made the quick jaunt over to Bringham Fish Market for a late lunch, and we're so glad we did! My wife had the cod fish and chips and I had the same done gluten-free, and both meals were fantastic!! Super fresh fish with very light batter, great tartar sauce, and very enjoyable beer and wine. Everyone who works there was very friendly and attentive. We got the smoked salmon spread to go, and we're very excited to try it. Absolutely worth a visit!

14:28 24 Jul 21

What a find. If you're in this area and love fish, especially fish and chips, you need to stop here. They have a variety of different kinds of fish to choose from. I had halibut, and man was it good. Flaky, tender and just delicious. The staff was super nice, and the outdoor seating had a beautiful view. I will definitely be going back.

23:46 17 Jul 21

OMG do they know their way around fish and chips and smoked Salmon. SO SO YUMMY!!! It's 100% always worth the wait. We'll be back again and again!

20:12 13 Jul 21

The cod fish and chips was very good. The salmon chowder tasted great and came out super hot. Loved the fried pickles. The fried mac and cheese tasted like straight Craft Mac n Cheese that had been fried.

C Arnhart (Cole Train)

16:20 13 Jul 21

This is epic!!!! Staff is awesome and food amazing! The fish is all fresh, local and great quality. It's pretty much on the other side of the state for but well worth the drive.

16:55 19 May 21

Stopped in on a whim during our trip to the coast. What a fortunate whim. The business, the young lady who helped us (Olivia) and the food were all absolutely amazing. We asked for recommendations and Olivia recommended the sturgeon and chips and the halibut and chips which my wife and I ordered and shared. I now have a new favorite “fish and chips” restaurant. The fish was perfectly cooked, the breading was light and very tasty. I was also craving a really good chowder. Olivia recommended the salmon chowder, which we got, and a bowl of clam chowder as well. The clam chowder was excellent, but the salmon chowder was out of this world. The seasoning that they use, plus the fresh salmon is not to be missed. Don’t drive past this treasure if you’re in the area, stop and indulge. It’s even worth going out of your way to give this a try.

21:58 16 May 21

This was the second time we stopped in while out riding our motorcycle. Great place to grab a quick bite. I've had great food and service every time. The smoked collars were on point.

22:41 01 May 21

They misplaced our order, but made up for it with food equal to what we paid for. Amazing customer service and going above and beyond. Food was also really good and piping hot

18:08 01 May 21

Great service. We had the sturgeon fish and chips and it was wonderful and tasty. Not greasy. Can't wait for salmon season to start in June. Fully equipped bathroom. Clean. Three tables inside and more outside. Limited Parking available. Also have dried fish for sale. It's a drive from Portland but so worth it. You won't be disappointed!

Alison Willette

20:17 14 Apr 21

This is such a good surprise. Disrupt her for halibut and chips for lunch. It's a huge portion and tastes amazing. Clam chowder was the best I've eaten in years.

04:26 28 Mar 21

-The service was fantastic! Very kind and attentive.
-The fish and chips (halibut and sturgeon) were the best I have ever had! More important though was my father's experience. My father has tried fish and chips at probably over 50 places, he has high standards and I have seen him disappointed time and time again. I have never seen him more impressed by fish and chips than when he had them at Brigham Fish Market. The breading was just a light dusting/crust, perfect to celebrate the fish. The fish was cooked to perfection, not a moment too long, beautifully moist. My dad said these were the BEST fish and chips he can recall ever having.
- The smoked fish (sturgeon and salmon) was phenomenal. I often have a hard time eating smoked fish because I find it too salty, but this fish was perfectly seasoned, I didn't need a cracker or anything to go with it, it was good enough to have it just straight out of the bag!

23:00 14 Mar 21

Cod Fish and chips and smoked salmon quesadilla... Food was delicious service prompt, will come back... They also have fresh fish options for your home culinary adventures

23:44 26 Feb 21

The Service is Amazing. Ronda is so friendly & helpful everytime. The Seafood Chowder is delicious. Best Chowder around.

Michael Cleaves

02:50 17 Jan 21

I really do love this place. There’s nothing like it around here—the selection is always fresh and high quality. The cooked to order food is fantastic. The ladies are always friendly and quick. Can’t say enough good things about this small town market. I drive 30+ minutes one way to shop and won’t buy fish anywhere else.

21:57 01 Jan 21

Best chowders and service! Been stopping to get salmon chowder every time we visit family in the Gorge. Terrific service. Highly recommend!!!

01:29 21 Dec 20

not only do we stop in every time we're in town to have some lovely fish and chips or other seafood today was a surprise out of norm. The wonderful staff for giving away 100 dinners for Christmas and loaded us up with a lovely ham, rolls a pumpkin pie and a bag of potatoes. What a wonderful gesture to do and it was completely unexpected. Thank you very much for that that was a wonderful gesture and really much appreciated.

00:35 30 Nov 20

Most likely the best fish and chips my wife and I have had for many years, with a couple of different fish options. Plus freshly caught local fish cuts to take home. Stop by if you are traveling on I-84.

19:54 31 Oct 20

Absolutely delicious! We had clam chowder and fish n' chips (halibut, tho they have several other fish options for their fish n' chips choices). Husband has traveled across the United States and tasted chowder from east to west... says THIS clam chowder was the best ever. And their shrimp ceviche... WOW! Add in the very friendly service and you've got a WINNER!

20:04 04 Oct 20

We stop here every time we come over the bridge and get a big order of clam chowder and 2 orders of perfectly fried pickles!!! We actually love everything they have on their menu so you can’t go wrong in our opinion.

21:51 19 Sep 20

Yummy food!

21:50 19 Sep 20

Delicious food and great employees.

18:18 18 Sep 20

Had the gluten free fish and chips.
It was awesome! You should try it : )

Kathy Clevenger

01:16 11 Sep 20

Outstanding halibut fish and chips, highly recommend! Order at counter and eat at tables spaced on lawn.

00:34 09 Sep 20

Unique recipe for fish and chips. It was delicious. The fish was fresh. Side note, the cold slaw was outstanding.

23:59 03 Sep 20

Unquestionably the best fish and chips I have ever tasted. I sampled both the cod and the halibut, both were phenomenal. My 7 year old every all three pieces of her cod which is unheard of. I'll be back the next time I'm on my way to Hood River!

04:18 01 Sep 20

Fresh fish. They are the spot. Not that frozen bagged garbage all the other places are passing off. I stay in portland and drive here often for fish and clams

01:58 28 Aug 20

Great food. Eat outside and enjoyed the river view.

01:42 26 Aug 20

Best fish and chips around, love the service and the quality of the food which is why I keep going back; even if it’s a bit more money then I usually tend to spend on eating out. Amazing place to dine outside or grab and go, and the business is very involved in the community, I love that they do drives every winter and are always generous and kind. Like friendly environments and food that’s so good you know you’ll be back for more? They’ve got it.

00:57 25 Aug 20

My husband and I stopped in with our 7yr old son and had lunch. Absolutely great service. Food was fresh and hot. Employees were very attentive with service, we felt like we were at a friends house. Thanks for surrounding your business with polite and joyful people. I didn't get the ladies name who took our order, but she knows who see is, thanks and thank you karina. Will be back soon..

06:37 22 Aug 20

Best fish and chips I’ve had hands down. Food tasted fresh and delicious. Staff were kind and hospitable. The restaurant was clean as a whistle. Loved the picturesque view and love supporting a native owned business!

20:57 13 Aug 20

Fresh Columbia River salmon to go. Awesome chowder. Eat in or take out!

20:16 09 Aug 20

Always consistent fish fry. Friendly service. They did a nice job o ordering and serving during the pandemic

21:36 24 Jul 20

Don't go anywhere else for your fish and chips or chowder.
I love small shops like this for their unique flavors like the coleslaw. Seafood chowder was delish along with halibut and salmon chips.

19:46 15 Jul 20

Best salmon chowder ever. I thought i loved halibut forever until i had the sturgeon... game changer. The owners and workers are extremely nice. Would recommend to anyone.

16:35 07 Jul 20

Oh my! I had been waiting for my chance to get back and have some yummy fish! My husband got a halibut Poboy to die for, it could've been 2 meal's! My cod and my grandson's clam strips were delicious! We sat outside and enjoyed the view! The staff is friendly and it's a very clean restaurant! I'm anxiously waiting to go back!

christopher Johnson

04:04 22 Jun 20

Great fish and chips stop. The smokes sturgeon was really good. I would say avoid the PO boys. I got one based on prior reviews. The lady helping me at counter suggested the shrimp po boy. The individual components are good. The shrimp is great, bread is good but a little too much bread. Coleslaw is good to but it needs a spicy sauce to tie it all together. Using the tartar sauce in this sandwich is not a good choice. It blends in with the coleslaw too much. You need a spicy sauce to tie it all together and compliment everything. Omit the tartar sauce.

Natalie Harmening

13:54 04 Jun 20

Wonderful service, they offer multiple packing options of fresh fish. Our go to place for fresh salmon, driving there from Portland is worth it!

16:13 31 May 20

Glad you were open! The salmon chowder was great, and was my first sit-down restaurant meal since March (which would have made it five star in any case :) ).

23:27 29 May 20

Absolutely SUPERB!! Seems every time I go there they are closed. NOT TODAY😁😁😁had the fish and chips with a very cold stain of beer to compliment the meal. Fish was expertly cooked. Hot! Very hot! I recommend you let your meal stand a minute or two to get the full flavor of your fish! Kim was awesome! Wonderful personality and awesome candor about their products. Payton was very friendly and professional. I will go back for FRESH fried fish! Thank you for the excellent service and atmosphere. Will recommend this new Cascade Locks restaurant to everyone! 💖

22:02 29 May 20

Food was good. Service good.

Floating Freelands

18:44 24 May 20

Fabulous fish & chips!! We love their coating of the fish, which is like seasoned bread crumbs instead of heavy beer batter.. and it’s NOT GREASY!!! We drive up the gorge just to eat here - it’s our favorite 😁 {of course, those fish & chips is followed up by a big swirl ice cream cone from East Wind Drive Thru🍦}.

00:03 17 May 20

We came to Cascade Locks just to have the halibut fish and chips! This is the best we have found in Portland and outer areas. Clam strips are good too as well as the “chips.”

05:04 08 Mar 20

Nice little restaurant right off I-84 with the Gorge as a backdrop. The owner was incredibly kind. The food was absolutely delicious. She suggested the Sturgeon Fish and Chips, which were amazing. I took home some Salmon Chowder, too, which was also amazing, even when reheated.

04:23 28 Jan 20

Great value for wild local salmon. The fish and chips are good too!

Ken and Phyllis Newkirk

00:11 03 Jan 20

Delightful small fish market that also serves fish and chips, chowders, Po Boys, and several other fish related items. Their fresh and smoked fish both look excellent. Easy parking.

Jonathan Mooney

05:03 22 Nov 19

Nice spot to drop in for lunch while out in the Gorge. A little better selection than the fishmongers along the road, though prices aren't always as good. But the salmon chowder is amazing.

16:48 01 Nov 19

We love the salmon chowder here. Also enjoyed their thick onion rings!

11:55 20 Oct 19

Depending on the time of year will determine what fish is being sold in the case. Always fresh and top quality. Popular for fish and chips, cod or halibut with certain times in the year also offering salmon. Clam and salmon chowder by the cup or bowl. Closed Wednesdays.

George Crosland

15:57 30 Sep 19

Had been wanting to try the salmon quesadilla here for a long time and it did not disappoint! The smoked salmon chowder was also very good and the staff was very friendly. The fish and chips looked very good as did the fresh fish available as well.

01:04 03 Sep 19

Cajun catfish was amazing! Outstanding coleslaw too. I never usually eat coleslaw but this was an intriguing mix of tastes so I ate it all!

Bruce Verkruyse

21:13 25 Aug 19

Fantastic place for lunch. I found some smoked sturgeon. Great chowder also. A real find.

19:51 18 Aug 19

Really great service and great fish and chips. We arrived about 30 minutes before closing and we still served with a smile. Had the halibut and chips. The halibut came as sticks, but you still got a good bit of perfectly cooked fish. The chips are.really good, not cold or.soggy. You have to trust a place that has real malt vinegar! They also have different batter options including gluten free. The prices are very reasonable for the portion. I'd go back if in the area again.

02:38 18 Aug 19

My family and friends have been coming here for years to enjoy the seasonal fish and chips. Good folks. Try the brownies.

00:41 17 Aug 19

Probably the worse fish I've ever had. Rubber texture and fishy taste. Not what you want for Alaskan halibut. Macaroni bites are some cheap brand of something like that boxed Kraft junk. I am not sure how the have good ratings on Yelp.

23:12 15 Aug 19

Hub and I stopped for a quick bite while heading home from our coastal road trip. We both ordered their PoBoys. When our meals took longer than anticipated, the owner (?) was conscientious of the delay and very attentive; we were given complimentary chowder and some smoked salmon packed on ice for the road. Fulfilling food and exceptional customer service.

22:34 08 Aug 19

We got here right before closing, which kinda bummed me out because had I known that their food would be so tasty, I might’ve spent the whole day here eating. Being from the zone of eastern standard time, I’m not used to salmon fish & chips, but this salmon was just so fresh and so delicious. Maybe west coasters take it for granted, but I was blown away. I would definitely eat here again, and again, and again. I would go full Reese Witherspoon Wild just to eat here.

19:58 03 Aug 19

Fantastic all around. High quality fresh fish. Excellent food including perfect fish n chips. Indoor seating and outdoor picnic tables in the gorge.

22:23 30 Jul 19

Great views of the Columbia River while sitting outside. I had the salmon quesadilla and it was AMAZING!

Pamela Zaragoza

21:42 21 Jul 19

Halibut fish very fresh portion is a good size .5 pound. Clam chowder delicious also.

09:33 17 Jul 19

The BEST smoked fish I've ever had!
It's more on a spendy side, I believe it was $26.99 lb. For this couple pieces I paid $11.
But it's worth it. The only bad side about it is now I crave it constantly. 😆😋

14:04 16 Jul 19

Oh my god!!!! The food was fantastic !! The chowder was delicious you have to go try out this restaurant drove 72 miles to eat there and it was so so worth every mile.

Leigh Pinkham-Johnston

02:33 03 Jul 19

Very good food. Great variety of fish. Staff was super friendly and helpful. We will go back.

16:20 01 Jul 19

The cod sandwich and the halibut poboy were amazing. My husband and I should have shared a meal. Neither of us could eat it all..the portions are Huge.
The fish was very fresh and the fries were homemade.
A little pricey, but definitely worth it .
You will not be disappointed with flavor or freshness.

21:13 19 Jun 19

Very delicious smoked salmon poboy. Kids enjoyed the fish and chips, all were hot and fresh. Service was mixed, the one who took my order didn't seem to like tourists very much (I needed a bit of help interpreting the menu as I had no idea what a poboy or hoagie rolls were) and would've earned this place less stars if not for the friendly one who then brought our food out.

13:24 18 Jun 19

Neat little place been looking for halibut fish and chips for awhile now

18:38 14 Jun 19

Amazing poboy sandwiches. Super fresh and delicious sea food

03:13 05 Jun 19

We normally love this place, the service and esp. the Chinook, when in season, is Fabulous but we had quite a memorable negative experience recently.
If it had been our first time there, we wouldn't return.
Do not order the Smoked Salmon Nachos which includes Tortilla Chips, Unmelted Shredded Cheese, Shredded Smoked Salmon, Salsa, Pico & Sour Cream and Coleslaw. We requested to have all the extra items on the side so we could add what we wanted. Even though onions and jalapenos were not listed as items, we were asked multiple times if we wanted them. We declined. Placing our order became more of an ordeal than it should have.

Do not ask for the cheese to be melted on the tortilla chips (b/c they don't have a way to melt the cheese, unless they heat up the smoker which can take up to 30 min.) that only brings out a confrontational staff member who will state, "I heard there's a problem" which there wasn't until she came to our table explaining how they serve FRESH cheese and the Smoked Salmon Nachos was intended to be more like a dip.

After unsuccessfully attempting to have the cheese melted, a very kind employee (wearing a ball cap) who we've encountered before, offered to give us a complimentary quesadilla even after we stated that wasn't necessary. Kudos to that employee. Great way to take care of a customer.
But instead, we received intervention from "The Other Employee" - the one who took our order (No ball cap) and no quesadilla.

19:03 28 May 19

Only fried food and chowder available. Not bad before a hiking.

They don't always have a lot of seafood there for sale or what they got is great. And if you're like me and you love clam chowder this place has the best clam chowder on the West Coast I've had Chowder from Bangor Maine the Key West Florida to Baja California to Vancouver BC and the best charter in the world was pal Shanty but they're closed now so go to the Brigham fish market in Cascade Locks and you will have the best clam chowder on the West Coast

The food here is delicious. We always stop here on our way through the Gorge. The fish and chips are great, as is the smoked fish. We also got a shrimp cocktail here that was excellent.

Amazing combo fish market restaurant. We had a limited special, fish tacos for Cinco de Mayo. Battered and deep fried cod with fresh cabbage slaw, onions and cilantro with a house dressing with an spicier option. Avoided fish tacos for years but no longer. They were delicious. We were told that they may add them to their regular menu. Yay!!! Also tried Half-size Salmon Spread on Ciabatta bread. It looked a bit plain but the flavor was outstanding. The salmon spread had several layers of flavor and a little kick. Ciabatta bread was warmed with the right balance of soft and chewy. That also serve beer and wine. Excellent, friendly service.

Very good service

- Sturgeon fish and chips - not too greasy, tastes like chicken, firm. They cut up fish chunks straight from the fridge.
- Sockeye salmon with honey and pepper is good
They have salmon dips, and both fresh and smoked fish.

This is a fish market that also sells Fish & Chips, and Clam or Salmon chowder. There is a small eating area for about 20 people. The employees are very knowledgeable about the fish they sell. They made good recommendations and backed them up with solid rationale. My wife and I ate there, and both had Halibut fish and ships and shared a small salmon chowder. I have never ordered fish and chips before when I could select what kind of fish I wanted (see menu photo). The market breads their own halibut. Fish for sale is clearly marked whether fresh or frozen. Salmon is local. They don't offer formal table service, but they do bring the food to the table and bus the table when we are done. There is self-serve water available for free and soft drinks available as well. Simple, but exceptional taste and service. Very friendly staff. I'm a loyal customer now! Note: I took 3 photos and posted them with permission from the business.

Best clam chowder ever. Other chowders too delicious. Fresh Salmon. Best smoked salmon dip and smoked Salmon. I love this place Owner and staff 5 star. Today I had fish and chips. Won't go anywhere else now. Several choices for fish Cod, Halibut, Sturgeon, and my new fave I had today Salmon and chips. Even the fries were stellar.

The employees were so friendly! They answered all our questions about the menu. I loved the salmon chowder, halibut fish n chips and fried oysters.

Halibut comes with 2 large pieces, coleslaw and french fries. Fried oysters are a dozen.

I'll be coming back to try the cod fish n chips and clam chowder. Annnnnnd also another order of fried oysters. How can you not?!
