“fabulous coffee and pastries“

“Great lunch, friendly people in a beautiful setting. What more can one hope for? Also, best burger on the Island.“

“Popular spot because of the great marina views, outdoor patio, good beer, casual atmosphere and good food. Sometimes there is a line to order your food so just be patient.“

“The food was great and the team working was amazing the best service ever.“

“Beautiful area to have an event and the staff is lovely. Just want future people to know that residents are able to hear all toasts and speeches and music. The entire community knows your business. If full names, places are used the community can hear it. If you do not want this I would set noise limit with your wedding planner or whomever is in-charge of that.“

“WONDERFUL Sunday dinner tonight. Our thanks! the entire family enjoyed every bite. BBQ salmon, rolls, salads and desserts, we will order again.“

“I am a recently hired employee at the BIMA bistro. I absolutely love working there, the staff is very kind and helpful, the food is great, and it’s a cleanly restaurant. The bistro seems to be improving every day, and my parents love eating there.“

“Pretty good, also a bit on the spendy side. $77 with 15% tip for 2 people.“

“Really tasty tofu & veggies with hash browns! The flavor of the tofu & veggies is Asian-inspired (ginger & tamari). Nicely cooked and all very good (though a bit small for the price, but that’s standard for Bainbridge). They also have soyrizo, vegan chili, & veganizable burrito and sandwich options. One of the best/only options in Bainbridge, as it’s not a very vegan friendly place.“

“This post is from Pacific Northwest Foodies. Doc’s Marina Grill ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve been on the quest for a great Crab Louie salad for a few years. Sadly, this classic crab salad is hard to find even in states like Washington. I suspect it has to do with most people not wanting to pay a lot of money for a salad, but if you’ve ever had a great one, you know this one is worth it. After doing a lot of research, I made a point to try the one at Doc’s Marina Grill on Bainbridge Island, Washington. There’s also a location in Port Townsend, Washington. For starters, I ordered a cup of Doc’s House Made Clam Chowder ($8) - famous because it’s “oh-so-good!” It needed a sprinkle of salt, but it was very good. For my entrée, I ordered Doc’s Dungeness Crab Louie ($38) - mixed greens topped with tender crab, seasonal vegetables, heirloom tomatoes and Doc’s house-made Louie dressing. I was impressed! I would rate Doc’s Crab Louie a 4/5. It was beautifully presented, had a generous portion of crab, and the house made Louie dressing was excellent! I would give this salad a perfect rating if they removed the red onion, and added a few black olives and asparagus spears. Even so, I was very happy with my salad and would rank it among one the best Crab Louie’s I’ve ever had. It is certainly the best I’ve had in Washington state. In addition to serving great food, I really enjoyed the ambience of Doc’s, and the service was excellent! I look forward to visiting again and try and some new menu items. *The upstairs level and bathrooms are wheelchair accessible. * There is an opening above the urinal that is a giant periscope. It provides a panoramic view of Eagle Harbor. It was designed by Lee Scott, a Carnegie Mellon graduate student. If you don’t use a urinal, but are interested in seeing the periscope, staff will clear the room so you can check it out too. I didn’t know about this until after my visit. Next time, I will be sure to check it out. 😊 Highly Recommended!!!“
