Stopped at Fisherman's Cove on our way out of town to grab a bite to eat. When we first drove by,…read morethe lines were super long, but by the time we got there they had shortened quite a bit, and the line moves really fast anyway. The employee helping us was super nice and had such a good vibe. We ordered the lobster roll sandwich, clam chowder, and the garlic butter oysters. Everything tasted super fresh and was so good. The clam chowder was especially different in the best way it had this smoky flavor I've never had before, and it was absolutely delicious.

Lunch at Fisherman's Cove was great start to a weekend road trip!…read more Driving oceanside, you can't help but want a crab sandwich and fish and chips. That's what my boyfriend and I ordered, and were satisfied (not to mention fueled for our hike that afternoon). I agree with other reviews that say it's pricey for what you get, but you'll still have a satisfying meal. The crab sandwich is real fresh, I kinda wish they toasted the bread, but would still recommend it. It came with a few slices of carrot that seemed random IMO, but still ate it. Also, you can't go wrong with the fish and chips! Service was straight-forward - you order and pay at the counter, then take your number to seat where your food is delivered. Most people were sitting outside on the benches, which is where you wanna be, especially on a sunny day with a view of the water. But there are also chairs and tables inside. Parking can be tight around here. The lot outside the restaurant is very small, and the street/back parking signs can be confusing. (There were cars parking in zones clearly marked with "No Parking" signs.)

We loved this place!…read more We were in Bodega Bay for a couple of days. Ate at Fisherman's Cove for lunch one day. Then came here for lunch the next day. The two restaurants are nextdoor to each other by the harbor. There's street parking - the parking lots are limited so we just parked in the street instead. Spud Point is casual. You wait in the line and order at the window. Then they bring the food out to you. There are some picnic tables and sunshades out front. Very easy and no pretense here! Here's what we ordered: Italian sourdough French bread $5 Red chowder $10 White chowder $10 2 crab sandwiches $20 each Albacore tuna sandwich $11 When ordering the bread, make sure you get some butter. The bread was absolutely delicious with crusty exterior and chewy inside. Perfect accompaniment with the chowder! We loved though New England white chowder. The Manhattan red chowder was fine, but we barely had half of it and took the rest home. The crab sandwich was great too! Tuna sandwich was good! There are other foods for sale at the order window - bags of chips, Crustable sandwiches. Can't wait to come back here! Wish I had the cooler with me to buy live crabs!!! BTW, I didn't see a bathroom here. But Fisherman's Cove (nextdoor) has one. It's just one unisex bathroom so there's a long line!

Now it's a fancy tourist trap. The clam chowder now is the white New England style which I don't care for. Their Seafood Chowder last time I was there was the red and was very good. But that's been some years ago and for all I know they don't offer it anymore and if they do it's probably $20 a bowl. Sure you get a nice view of the harbor in the dining room but not worth what you pay for expensive mediocre food.

Normally we go to the Fisherman next door, but we heard that the $21.00 crab sandwich was amazing…read more So we took a drive to see how amazing it was. You should be ashamed of yourselves for charging guests $36.00 for food that is flavorless. I bought a medium size cup of Clam chowder for 12.00 and what we got was Potato Milk soup. One bite and I took it back to the counter. Nobody greeted me for 8 minutes. When I was finally approached, I asked the owner if he tasted the soup as it had no clams, and no flavor. He said maybe they didn't stir it and ge proceeded to get me a new cup. Again we tried it and yet again Potato Milk soup. The $ 21.00 Crab sandwich was really 1 oz spread out on Toasted sourdough with 1 piece of lettuce, 2 slices of tomato. This tasted like a B.L.T without the bacon. Mayo overpowered any taste of crab. The highlight was the$ 4.00 frozen fries. They were served hot, perfectly seasoned and just the right amount. We won't be coming back, we will stick to The Fisherman next door.

Great store on Highway 1!…read more Parking lot has a beautiful view of the ocean! Easy parking did us. There were a few open spots. They pack a lot into this smallish store. Fresh fruit & veggies, packaged goods. We couldn't find prices on some of what we were buying so we brought them to the register to ask. And some prices on the shelves were old. It's It ice cream sandwich for $3.49. Calypso lemonade for about the same price. Box of Mike & Ike's has 99 cents on the shelf but it was $3 or something. They take ApplePay so that makes it easy!

Clam and scallop chowder in a bead bowl makes for a great day at Bodega Bay. Owner Alicia is a local gem of a human and takes pride serving up family recipes to indulge in.

Great place great people. During restaurant week they topped over 100 crab sandos to very happy folks! With no shortage of clam chowder around, the offerings at Ginochio's stand out and truly deserve more than 5 stars!!!! You're welcome in advance! This place effin rocks my palate and will impress yours. All meats can be sold by the pound as well so bring some home or to your hotel, everything packs well for a picnic at the beach or a late night when everything is closed!! Sorry no photos this time- we ate too fast ;)

We were greeted right away and we placed our order. My wife ordered the crab sandwich which was quite expensive at $28 and I ordered the fish tacos. We initially went for the clam chowder, but decided to order something different. The crab sandwich was very good, but could've been better if the bread wasn't toasted so much on the outside. The fish tacos were a bit dry but had plenty of fish. I'm always in search for fish tacos as good as the ones at Zazzle's in Petaluma! Unfortunately, they closed a while back and I haven't found fish tacos as good since! I think we will come back and try the breakfast next time.
