    After ice cream and some playtime on Hollywood Beach, it was obviously time for actual food! We wandered over here for something relatively quick, but also they gave us a nice representation of the sea bounty available in the area. The place was busy as we came at 6 o'clock on a warm, sunny, sunny evening. It was about as perfect a night as you could ask for! The folks working here we're all very friendly, especially the gentleman manning the register. He did an amazing job of cutting a couple of folks understand that they were doing their best and would get their food out to them as quick as possible. The guy might need to write a book someday! The food here was solid. It wasn't the best ever, but it was above average. The five of us ended up splitting a crabwitch, and a thing of fish and chips. We grabbed some extra fish and some shrimp, and a night was made! It wasn't surprising that things were expensive. Nobody's giving away food these days, and certainly not crab. The crab sandwich was something like $33, and despite the hefty price tag, it was very good. We were able to sit outside on some picnic tables, listening to the ocean and watching boats, big and small, float by. It was a pretty wonderful night! If you're over on this little wharf, it's definitely worth checking out.

    We stopped in on the way to the Canada Dry dragon boat festival and we had a wait for the Blackball. My partner is gluten free and loves fish and chips so the Fish and Crab Shack seemed made for her! Or food came fast and the rockfish was awesome! The fish was flakey, the crusting crispy, and the seasoning spot on. The fish and chips comes with a small slaw, some tartar, and a pickle. Honestly, the taste was 5 stars. The friendly service also 5 stars. I wish I could only deduct 1/2 star but I can't... my only gripes: Very little tartar sauce (it was that good so more would be better) and the soda fountain was bubble-less. Everything flat. Do yourself a favor when waiting on the Blackball and stop here! It's a super cute outdoor dining area with blankets when it's cold.

    We finally tried the Fish shack and had a great lunch! It is a cute spot with a couple heatlamp tables and a dozen round tables that turn over pretty quickly. It's a quick self service eatery along the pier where you order at the counter and they call your number to pick up your own food. You also bust your table yourself. We had the rockfish Poboy that had a tasty aïoli, a mild coleslaw on top of a somewhat small piece of fish served on a toasty bun, very tasty fries, w/ malt vinegar available (yum), it was a perfect size where you could just finish your food in one sitting, which, when eating at a crab shack is probably preferred as you're probably going to walk about or catch a boat.) It was somewhat high priced, but the quality was good and the beers were only $7, so the price average overall for the meal was competitive in downtown waterfront Port Angeles. I will be back to try more items.

    Fish and Chips, and Clam Chowder Bowl

    Amazing Fish and Chips!! I came to visit this local spot around 2pm on a Sunday. It was quite busy, and all tables were taken. I ordered their fish and chips (GF) and clam chowder bowl. The total came out to be around $40. I waited about 15 minutes before the food came out. The fish and chips were so tasty, probably the best fish and chips I've ever had in Seattle. The tartar sauce was also perfect to dip in. I liked how light the breading was, and the fish and chips weren't too greasy either. The fish was really fresh, and I will come visit this place everytime I pass by Port Angeles. The clam chowder wasn't as good as the fish and chips though, it came out room temp, and I wish it was warmer. Taste was ok though. If you are visiting Port Angeles, I'd recommend getting the fish and chips! Notes: -They have plenty of GF items on their menu, and the fries are GF as well. -Seating is outside only, so bring a jacket on a cold day

    What I loved about this place aside from the amazing view was the quality of the food. The fish was fresh and lightly breaded, and the clam chowder was perfectly balanced with cream and broth. The food was well worth the price and the view of the port is an added bonus. No trash, clean tables and bathrooms inside the wharf building made for a convenient set up.

    I like to think that restaurants that only do one or two things tend to do them very well. And Fish & Crab Shack is no exception! Their sign indicated it would take about 12 minutes per order but they surprised us with our entire order after about 8 minutes. My wife and I shared the Crab Shackwich, Fish Shackwich and a Bowl of Clam Chowder. I preferred the Fish Shackwich over the Bowl of Clam Chowder over the Crab Shackwich. As for the ambiance... It's a seafood shack on the wharf with a view of the ocean... Doesn't get much more calm and casual than that.

    Very good food at a nice location on the wharf where you can watch the ferry arrive and leave. Bring a jacket though, because it gets breezy and there is no indoor seating. We came here after considering a handful of other seafood places in town. We were looking for something relatively simple, and their menu hit all the right notes. It's located on the outside of the wharf building, and is a basic walk-up window where you place your order on a touch screen and wait for your name to be called. They've set up several tables for dining, including a few that are covered with radiant heat, for those of us who came unprepared for cooler evening weather. What we enjoyed that day: PNW rockfish and chips - three lightly-breaded filets with plenty of fries. The fish was excellent - light, moist, and flaky. It was probably lacking just a little bit of salt, but with the lemon and tartar sauce it made for a satisfying meal Shrimp and chips - the shrimp was breaded in a way that we haven't seen before, and it was really good. We would read later that it's a quinoa-based breading. The shrimp was cooked properly; not tough and rubbery. Fish po'boy - pretty much the same fish filet on a roll. The aioli was key to making this dish come together. When we ate here, it came with both fries and hush puppies, but as I look at the online menu now I don't see hush puppies anywhere. I'll have to say (as at least one other person here has written), the hush puppies were a big miss. The interior was very dry and had an unappealing powdery texture. This certainly needs to be reworked. Service was friendly, but a little slower than expected on the day we visited. The covered and heated seating area indeed kept those of us in shorts and T-shirts comfortable.

It feels like every seat has a perfect, almost 360 view of the water. One of those spots where you catch yourself staring out the window mid-bite. Our server actually turned out to be from our area, which made for such an easy, fun conversation and added a really personal touch to the experience. The fish was the best I had in Port Angeles--fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you hope for when you're eating right on the water. I also had to grab chicken tenders for the kids (mandatory parenting order), and those were solid too. And the house lemonade? No joke--so good. Also, little tip: they offer a discount if you pay in cash, which is a nice bonus.

My husband ordered a beer and asked if we could please place our dinner order as we had to get home sooner than later...Server caustically remarked only drink orders as she was too busy (being a former bartender and long time server myself I had noticed the large dining room was not crowded) and at least 20 minutes later when she was passing thru again for several more drink orders he asked again about placing our food order and this time she ripped into him, rudely... and informed him she would have to work 10 times harder if she took our food order. I was shocked that she would speak to him in such a unprofessional manner, I told her we had not come in to be snarled at by the wait staff and we got up to leave, she yelled at my husband to just forget the beer cost and we left embarrassed about the scene she created as the rest of our group was arriving. He called this morning to discuss this with the young male manager who proceeded to berate him for the treatment of the server!! and claimed that the group applauded the server after we left ( we spoke to several bowlers that were there and the managers claim was certainly not anything that any of them experienced.....he told my husband we were not welcome to come back and we certainly will not if that is how the restaurant is being ran by the new ownership.
