Fisherman's Cove

We enjoyed our first lunch so much that we returned a few days later for a repeat visit before heading back home. It's pricey but we thought the food was worth it!! We ordered a dozen fresh oysters each time and oysters were perfectly shucked without a single shell fragment. Service was super friendly, just wish they didn't charge a 4% surcharge for credit card purchases.

Amazing place to grab some pipping hot fish and chips. Closer to Bodega Bay Trail, this place is crowded all the time. From what they serve, it seems like it’s always the fresh catch of the day. Crowd favorites here are the Fish and Chips, Oysters, Clam Chowder, Crab Sandwich and Lobster Roll. For the Fish and Chips, I selected Halibut and it was cooked perfectly. Moist and succulent, and well seasoned.

My girlfriend and I visit Bodega Bay and the Sonoma Coasts beaches a couple of times a month, year-round. We have been to every establishment in the area that serves food several times. Sampling the fish'n chips, clam chowders, and our other favorites and house specialties. Fisherman's Cove is our favorite. My favorite fish'n chips, they get the batter just right, and one of the best clam chowders. Everything else I've had there is also great. Lobster roll, crab sandwich, Portuguese seafood soup, oysters, you name it. Everything I've had there has been fantastic. Great people, too! I love that there's a self-serve water station. The place is always clean and inviting. My only complaint is that they never seem to have a sweatshirt in my size (XL). I only ever find mediums and smalls. It's probably just bad timing. My size probably just sells out. I'll keep checking.

We went in a busy Saturday for takeout for a beach picnic. Parking was limited so be prepared to wait or park nearby. When we walked in, there was a big line which moved super quick. It also smelled like delicious seafood and not like those funky fish-smelling stores. We decided to try the fried calamari and lobster roll, along with the cookies they have near the register. Loved everything about the lobster roll and the hoagie roll made it even better because it sucks up all the butter and flavor without it being too bready or soggy like the usual rolls. Fries (or chips) were crispy and delicious and so were the calamari. Was really impressed how they serve tartar sauce with calamari . Not a big fan of marinara with fried calamari but they do include it. The cookies completed our mela and they were surprisingly chewy! Definitely will be back.

There is a wide range of both seafood and deli selections on the menu. We enjoyed the fish tacos. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. There is seating both inside and outside. The restaurant is very popular and can be busy on weekends and holidays during the summer. The food is definitely worth the wait.
