What could be better than fish directly off the boat? From full dinners to the $3 fresh grilled fish tacos its all great. Don't fret if the line is long it goes fast. Winter or summer sitting outside is the best view in town.

Its not fancy but oh so good. They offer everything from sandwiches, wraps, salads, smoothies, from breakfast to dinner. Absolutely delicious pulled pork sandwich, a huge Acai Bowl, and a good salmon salad! They also have a large variety of vegetarian entrees. Lets not forget the large selection of coffees and drinks. Sunday morning is crowded

While the inside is getting dated, the outside patio is amazing. With the private lake, fountains and wildlife the view is great. I’m told the have the best squid sandwich. The fish and chips is the long time favorite of many.
