Shout out to the chowder! This is my favorite chowder. It's not thick like some people prefer but to me thickness does not equate to flavor. This stuff is creamy and brothy and full of tender clam and flavor. The flavors and textures are just perfectly balanced and so comforting. Everything we tried was fantastic...fried halibut, prawns and fries. Love sitting on the deck with my pup and a cold beer and delicious food. This is a must whenever I visit Cannon Beach.

So glad we found this place! The staff was friendly, service was fast, great atmosphere and delicious food! We tried the fish and chips one was Cod the other Halibut and both were amazing! Also the Shrimp melt, popcorn Shrimp and Clam Chowder Bowl super delicious and their fries are nice and crispy! Expect to spend about $25+ per person. Will definitely be back!

Quite impressive food! Their pacific cod fish and chips is fresh and flavorful.. the fish isn’t dry at all and the batter is crispy and light. It is a beer batter style fish and chips, which in my opinion is the most classic and underrated styles. The fries were also very crispy and flavorful!

The must eat of Cannon beach. Salmon fish and chips was amazing. The chowder was good but not a must get—I prefer NE chowder it’s creamier than this one. Fries were nice and crispy. Easy to order online for dine in or go thru the line.

Amazing food and great prices! We ordered the 8 piece jumbo shrimp, clam strips, chowder, garlic bread, and the bay shrimp and Dungeness crab cocktail. The shrimp are HUGE and the fries are delicious. The garlic bread goes perfectly with the gluten free chowder that is full of clams. The Dungeness Crab and Bay Shrimp cocktail is really fresh and tasty. The Halibut was fresh and delicious as well. Everything on the menu was perfect. They get really busy at lunchtime, so you want to right when they open or after the lunch rush if you want inside seating. They also have outdoor seating as well. The prices are good for the amount of food you get. We highly recommend!

I found this place interesting. Order by the front. You get a number and wait until someone yells yours . There was a line, but of course not in order , the food is actually very good. I will be willing to try new items next time , stairs up there's tables with a view . Good place to visit.

Truly good fried seafood can be deceptively difficult to find in a tourist-heavy coastal town, especially at the height of a busy season, but we were very happy with the entire menu! Everything was fried and seasoned perfectly but the scallops were a particularly joyful experience. Don't miss the clam chowder that manages to be gluten free, bacon free, and delicious by focusing on the star - the clams! Would definitely stop by here for that specific culinary craving that inevitably finds us when near the ocean.

Every tourist direction would recommend people to try seafood in Cannon Beach. We had lunch at Ecola Seafood and it was overall decent with fresh ingredients.

The Dungeness crabs dinner was amazing! We shared the crab, chowder, coleslaw, and salmon. Sat on the roof top! Expensive but worth it! Florida girls trip 2023!

Really good beer battered fish and chips, I got the halibut and clam chowder(bacon free) fries could have better seasoning, but still very crisp! This place gets busy so seating may be difficult. I recommend you sit outside if you can, there’s a nice fire pit and view.

Great seafood restaurant and market! I had the Captains Platter and it was pretty good and tasted fresh! They serve drinks and alcohol but they're in cans/bottles and I don't think the fountain soda was working at the time. The seating inside the market is okay but they also have seating outside and on the patio. Overall enjoyed my meal and visit!

I love this place. I heard that the best places are a block or two off the beach and they were right. This is a fish market and restaurant. You order at the counter. There is some seating inside, but if the weather is cooperating the outside is better for tourist watching. It is also very loud inside, but there is ample outdoor seating. Get the crab cakes! They are in my last meal roster. They also have probably the best fries I’ve ever had. This place is definitely a fantastic choice for seafood in Cannon Beach.

The perfect lunch destination after spending time at the beach. I had their 45$ crab special which came with two very meaty dungeness crabs, clam chowder, coleslaw, and garlic bread. In my opinion, it was well worth the price, super fresh, and so tasty. My boyfriend had the fried shrimp which delivered the same qualities. Sitting up on their rooftop is certainly the move and even on a chillier day they have some fires up there to keep you warm. This is exactly the kind of place I am looking for in a beach town!

Ordered 1 lb of fresh crab, the steamed mussels, crab and prawn cocktail. Everything was delicious but it was far too much food for 2 people. Would definitely go back! We took it to go and ate it at our hotel while watching the sunset for our anniversary dinner. More bang for your buck than ordering seafood from a local restaurant.

Delicious whole Dungeness crab dinner! Chowder was great. Nice atmosphere. Would have liked to have eaten on the outdoor patio, but there was only one table with a fireplace, and it was full. It was too cold out otherwise. But I would return.

Delicious! The fish here tasted incredibly fresh and tasty; The same goes for the calamari and scallops we had! Staff was also awesome! The two ladies at the front counter were incredibly nice and attentive to help us through the menu and accommodating for our family. Loved our trip here and would recommend anyone else visiting to stop here for some good food!

Very popular seafood place but probably not for people who cares about healthy diet. Good variety of seafood - crab, shrimp, salmon, calamari and scallops. Couldn’t really tell the seafood quality because most of the dishes are deep fried. Coleslaw was really good.

The atmosphere was what really made this place great. I was a little disappointed to see so many frozen items in the front case, it made me think they were using all the frozen items to make the hot items for the dining in customers. I got the crab cakes and the chowder. The chowder had HUGE chunks of clam in it which was amazing. The crab cakes lacked in flavor a little bit (again possibly from being frozen). The upstairs patio was absolutely lovely. We got to share a table with a couple other couples and the conversation was really pleasant and everyone was so kind. I do not favor this seafood option over others in the area but it was still really pleasant.
