This was the perfect restaurant for a larger group! We were able to make a reservation the day before for 12 people and they had us in a nice area. We were well taken care of and the food was great! We were there celebrating a family member's birthday and they allowed us to bring our own birthday cake for them to store in a fridge. They even brought it out with candles we didn't bring and sang to them! Completely unexpected but made for a great celebration. I'd definitely recommend the Boat Shed to anyone in the Bremerton area! read more

We are local to the Kitsap Peninsula and have been eagerly awaiting the "Boat Shed" experience...wow, disappointment raised to the power of 10. We had a very nice server, however she never even asked whether we wanted a second drink - fair as we most certainly didn't. I ordered the special margarita (dragon fruit and mango) - instead I got downgraded to the house margarita which tasted like sh$tty margarita mix sans tequila. This absolutely terrible drink was served in a tumbler sized glass full of ice, as if I would not realize the drink scam going on here. My wife ordered a strawberry basil summer cooler - it lacked flavor and even the hint of ETOH. Well, that was the highlight of our onetime only experience. The food was completely lacking in seasoning - the chefs must have been trained in Poulsbo. My best guess, drunk boaters do not care that the food is not well cooked and under seasoned. Given their likely inebriated state, they probably also don't care that they are being given drinks with almost no alcohol and even worse execution. Caveat Emptor read more

My first visit to the Boat Shed last summer was a great experience. My sunsequent visits sadly, have been disappointing. Yesterday, a couple friends and I visited. Two of us ordered the fish tacos and the third ordered the shrimp sandwich. The fish tacos were blandly seasoned and dry. The only sauce accompaniment was a simple and stale pico mix. The flour shell was not cooked. I hate unheated, lard-forward flour shells. I thought of sending it back, but what was the point? They didn't care, and so much was wrong - no sauce, no seasoning. Over-cooked pre-cooked bland fish. No attempt at cooking the shells. The restaurant is adorable which makes the fact that it's set aside any ambitions with their product all the more a sad waste. read more

Ugh. I haven't been here in 4 years as I live out of town. The portion sizes are abysmal for the crazy cost. I remember when the fish and chips were a great portion. What my fiancé got was literally the size of a table knife. He left still hungry which is a first. I got the cioppino and almost laughed at the lack of sauce. Then had to pay for bread to dip in! What in the actual h*ll?! $44 dollars. Incredibly disappointed with this place. Then the hostess kept going in and out to the deck where noone was and each time we would get blasted with cold air. After the 3rd time I finally ripped into her. So inconsiderate. How about you train your staff to be considerate of diners who just spent over $200 read more

My husband and I came here last night for dinner and were so sad about the horrible food. We were excited for the burger and Seafood pasta that we have had before and was pretty good in the past but this time the burger was somehow cold ,dry and flavorless. My seafood pasta had 1 small shrimp 1 small scallop , 3 clams 2 mussels and no fish. In the description there is supposed to be 2 kinds of fish. It also had no /seasoning , garlic or flavor. Love the view of the water but we wont be back read more

While in Bremerton I stopped by the Boat Shed for lunch. I was seated right by the window, with a beautiful view. I ordered the fish and chips and they did not disappoint. The fish was perfectly crispy on the outside, flaky and tender on the inside, and not greasy at all. The fries were delicious too. Service was friendly and laid-back. Definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more

Boat Shed - Arctic Cod Fish & Chips - Seafood Near Me - Bremerton, Washington

You can't beat the location. The restaurant is right on the water. It's beautiful and relaxing. Just one set of jet skis went by. It was a beautiful Sunday so the outdoor tables were full. The service was a bit slow at first. The food was good. Had some items off the menu and others off the daily specials. Totally loved the clam chowder and the halibut tacos. The halibut tacos were a special as their typical tacos are cod. The watermelon Dungeness salad, another special, and the calamari were ok. The salad had a healthy amount of crab meat but would have liked a bit more greens. read more

Calamari and stuffed mushrooms were delicious. Coffee was lukewarm, food was average. We got a reservation and the restaurant wasn't very full, but we were placed in the back corner. It wasn't even enough light to read the menu without our phone lights. We had to ask them to light the candles on the table to get a little more light. The service was slow. The food was cold and taste was bad. The location was the best part of the experience. Overrated and overpriced for the food and experience. The tables were too small for the group. read more

The view was good, the hostess staff amazing. Food was good but not superb just average. Service from our waitress was lacking, it felt like pulling teeth to get help but maybe it was just an off day. I left feeling so so, not a place I would think to recommend when friends say they are in town but a place to stop in if you are walking by. read more

Food was a little bland and expensive for what it was. The service was quick, considering how big the party was. The restaurant is next to the water so the view is incredible and perfect for a sunset dinner. Pictured is a mango halibut served with rice and green beans (special for the day). read more

The wasabi salmon is AMAZING! Sounds interesting, but a must try! Nice notes of teriyaki with a very mild wasabi aioli-like drizzle that is the most savory combination! Our server was the best, great customer service all around! We sat outside, and enjoyed a beautiful PNW spring evening, celebrated a birthday, and the strawberry cheesecake was also delicious. read more

The reason there is even a star in this review is due to the beautiful water view out on the deck. The servers were also nice. The good times stop there. The audacity to charge these prices for the small portions and lackluster food. And then on top of all of that, there's a sticker on my tomato?! Would not come back. read more

We ended up at Boat Shed on a day trip to Bremerton from Gig. We wanted to see USS Ronald Reagan which recently arrived from Japan for dry dock repairs. That was a bust. But we did find Boat Shed and enjoyed a great lunch on their amazing patio. I decided to have the chowder despite the mixed reviews. Yes, it is different, but it is full of flavor, plenty of clams, and very tasty. I paired that with a fish sandwich. Partner had an excellent cheeseburger. Our bill with tea and coffee was $55. Excellent service. And yes, the view is amazing. read more

I came here as my best friend recommended it and it did not disappoint. This restaurant has a waterfront view and the food is delicious. I tried the award winning clam chowder, crab and shrimp stuffed mushroom and halibut fish and chips. Everything was tasty but my favorite was the stuffed mushroom. There are so many delicious flavors in one bite. The fish was very tender and juicy. To drink I had a margarita, which was okay. The service was great. I got seated right away with the best view and the staff gave me suggestions on what to order. I would definitely return to grab a bite to eat. read more

Another wonderful lunch on a beautiful, sunny day! We met with friends that are visiting from Colorado, we were seated immediately at a table overlooking the water on the deck. Service was prompt and attentive and the food was great! Two of us had the Shrimp Louis, one had the fish and chips and the other had the almond crusted salmon salad. read more

Boat Shed - Shrimp Louie* - Seafood Near Me - Bremerton, Washington

The staff at this restaurant or inexperienced and have a little trouble focusing on the tasks at hand, but overall they get the job done. I took friends out for thank you dinner and my friend had appetizers for dinner. She didn't care for the fried eggplant. The calamari seemed OK. I tried it. My steak and salmon surf and turf. Dinner was acceptable but nothing special. The place is clean it does have a view and they are attentive. The restrooms are clean. Parking is a little challenging, but not over the top. I'm not sure why we call this fine dining, but I would call it a nicer casual restaurant. read more

Great choice of a restaurant if in Bremerton, WA. Portion was plentiful in my entree of clam linguine as well as very tasty! Cup of clam chowder and crab & shrimp stuffed mushrooms were great appetizer choices. It was quite busy both on the patio and the inside dining room. Hostess was very sweet & quick to wrangle a server that appeared a good 10-15 after being sat. Despite not having silverware when the food came and lack luster service, I would still very much recommend this spot and try again with high hopes of better service next time. The view, as well as the unexpected sweet suprise of a seal napping on the dock, was a great end of still a great dinner:) read more

Excellent food!! Fun experience!! Really nice view. Wonderful service. I came over on my boat with a friend. Fun time!!

Stopped in here with an hour to kill and was VERY pleasantly surprised! We sat for a bit before ordering and our waitress was great and very attentive. We ended up realizing it was Happy Hour so we ordered the burger and a beer deal for $16. It was hands down the best cooked burger we've had in a while. Traditional cheeseburger with 2 patties, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, pickles and 1000 island. The fries were absolutely great and well and the real test was their ranch. Perfect! Definitely will be back. read more

We stopped here for lunch after touring the nearby USS Turner Joy Navy ship. We were looking for a seafood restaurant with a view. Found this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Multiple people helped us during our meal. The restaurant was clean. My only gripe with the hostess, was seating us right next to an occupied table when the rest of the dining room around us was completely empty. I don't understand why people do this. Some privacy is always nice. We don't need to hear strangers conversations and they don't need to hear ours. It's just too close for comfort. Anyway, we ordered the side Ceasar salad, cup of clam chowder and the steamed manila clams. The food came out fairly quickly. The clam chowder was really good. Plenty of clams and flavor. The steamed clams were great as well. The rustic bread served with them was nice and fresh. The disappointing part of the meal was the brown lettuce in the salad. I should have sent it back. The house made dressing was really good and they put a nice amount of shredded parmesan on top. Overall a nice experience. The majority of food was great, service super friendly, and gorgeous views! Would recommend. read more

Came for a midweek lunch. Took around 45 minutes to get our food. The medium well burger came out rare and the shrimp was cold. We returned the burger and waited another 25 minutes for the replacement. Not the server's fault, she was very nice. They may be understaffed but it was an expensive disappointment. read more

Our server took our order, took almost 20 min to drop off our drinks and never checked on us again. We never got refills and would have continued drinking if she had checked on us and ordered dessert. However with the service and our food arriving lukewarm at best we decided to just get outta there. read more

Staff was very friendly and food is always good.we ended up getting an early reservation and ended up sitting in the bar, which was less crowded. We loved being able to look out at the water too-nice ambiance. read more

Went there for lunch we had three bowls of soup fries and a burger with fries, 2 beers and an ice tea and split a desert $172.00 Absolutely insane read more

I think this is the best happy hour deal in town. Gotta sit in the bar but a beer, double cheeseburger and fries for under $16???

Seafood linguine was ok. The portion was small with a few mussels, one shrimp, and one scallop. They charged $34 for an underwhelming dish. This was not the Boat Shed I heard raving reviews about. Under new management. Be advised. read more

The deck! Wow! We were in Bremerton for renovation reasons and got hungry. The Boat Shed looked like a great location so we decided to stop in for a late lunch/early dinner. It took a minute to be greeted and seated which wasn't surprising at 3:30. We ordered the steamed Manila clams for an app and the wasabi salmon and seared scallops for our entrees. The clams were great and we devoured them quickly (hungry). The sear on the salmon was (chef kiss) and the wasabi aoli was very good. The scallops were also perfectly seared. All the dishes really exceeded expectations. We decided to split the blackberry crisp to top off our meal. It was also great! If you're in Bremerton, do yourself a favor and stop by when you can use the deck. read more

Excellent food, service and ambiance. My favorite restaurant in Bremerton. The staff is always happy and makes me feel at home.

Rustic ambiance overlooking the water. Inside and outside (summer) dining, good service and excellent fresh menu choices. We've been here numerous times! read more

terrible food, slow service, awful parking, nice outdoor location! if at all possible, dine some place else!

Not a first time visitor but my most recent visit was great! Albeit a tad bit warm inside the restaurant and outside seating had a wait, but we were hungry so we didn't want to wait. Had window seating and got to see a saloon and some seagulls swimming in the water. Service was decent. My mister did have to flag down the server a couple times for another beverage when she walked by, but it be like that sometimes. As an appetizer we ordered the shrimp and crab stuffed mushrooms. Yum! Loved the toasty cheese on top. My partner said there was barely any crab and shrimp but I could taste it. It was yum and wish they had more of it! My entree of choose was the clam linguine and let me tell you, it was everyyyyything. They did not skimp on the clams, and the sauce was chefs kiss! Creamy, garlicky and a touch of lemon. I almost never finish my meals but I killed this bowl of pasta. My mister ordered "the ketch" which was basically a club sandwich. It looked good but I enjoyed my pasta too much to care to try a bite. It's definitely recommended to come by the boat shed, especially on a beautiful day to dine on the patio. But if you can't wait for seating outside, the food is just as enjoyable indoors ;) read more

Mid week the restaurant was not crowded and we got an easy seat viewing the water. Ordered some house wines and the mushroom appetizer which came with bread and was fantastic. We shared the surf and turf and it was spot on. Park by the restaurant or up the hill since parking could be a challenge on popular nights. The staff is marvelous and subtly they know they have a gem place to eat in the city. Don't miss this place and get some great pictures of the Manette Bridge as you wrap up your perfect night out. read more

Incredible service, food, atmosphere. Was in town for work and went down to the Boat Shed with some colleagues. Was so impressed by the place I FaceTimed my family to show off where I was. That was before I tried the food, the food was amazing, had the surf and turf and the steak and salmon were both cooked perfectly, the prawns were delicious. If I'm ever back in town I'm definitely going back! read more

First of all, the ambiance here is everything. The outdoor patio is beautiful on a summer day. It's right on the water with a dock you can walk out on. Mid afternoon we were able to get a table easily. Service was a little slow but that's really my only negative. We got water and one drink (Pepsi) but never got a refill on our drinks throughout the meal. I got the seafood pasta. It was absolutely to die for. Lots of garlic sauce with a ton of flavor, and a good amount of seafood. The scallop on top was HUGE and cooked perfectly. We also decided to get dessert! I couldn't resist the blackberry cobbler and was obsessed with it. It was a good size, served hot and with so many blackberries! It maybe could've used a little more ice cream but it's one of the best desserts I've ever had. read more

I took the ferry to Bremerton for a day trip and wanted to go somewhere local and unique for lunch. This out of the way little place is adorable inside and out, and has an amazing view. Was super impressed with the place. All of my pictures are ambiance, I forgot to take any of the food. Their menu is wide ranging American pub food. Something for everyone. I wasn't super hungry so I had fish tacos, fries and an iced tea but they also have more substantial meals. The fish tacos were tasty and healthy, cod was grilled not breaded. The fries were also very good (hey gotta have balance ). The place is a little hard to find, trust your nav app. You drive down a narrow road at the end but can easily turn around for the return trip out. read more

I dined here on Friday. I ordered a "special", and let me tell you, there was nothing special about it. The food was alright, bland and expensive, nothing new. My problem was with one of the workers; tall-ish, dark facial hair, might've been a manager based on how he was speaking to the other workers. I found it entirely unprofessional, truly sickening to see such disrespectful speaking towards your staff. If that is the manager of this establishment, I am truly disappointed and deeply sorry for all the staff that have to deal with such egotistical manner. read more

Great food, and excellent ambience. We sat out on the terrace, which had a gorgeous view of Manette bridge. We had the Cioppino, seafood linguini, and rosemary chicken linguini. It was all very tasty. Also had the Upside down apple pie and blackberry crisp. Both were excellent. read more
