100% must do. Excellent seafood and awesome experience - from the windy drive down to the to the rustic outdoor waterfront dining - dripping with authentic Pacific Northwest aura. Well worth the adventure. You wont be disappointed.

š¦Ŗā„ļø Iāve only been to Taylor Shellfish in Capitol Hill before, so this is my first time here. Being right by the water gives it such a great vibe, I really loved it. As expected, Taylor Shellfish still has the best oystersš(Ah, it was a bit disappointing that they only had corn chowder!š„¹)

We have been to the market many times. We Love what we buy. Unfortunately we wanted to have a quiet lunch for the first time dinning in. The staff was rude, I asked for a menu I could look at she said take a picture of the sign. When asking questions the staff just gave me dirty looks, most of the time didn't even answer me. The oysters were good, except a lot of shell in each one. Ordered the corn chowder, very bland, they said it would have shrimp in it. It didn't. Disappointed. We had the pickled herring, had a lot of red Cabbage in it. It wasn't good. It was very cold in the restaurant also. Then we went to the market got the extra small shucked oysters and got home and they were like extra large. For being highly recommended. This was very disappointing $100, not worth it. The staff was the worst part. We felt like a huge Inconvenience to them. Fine we will spend our money elsewhere. Hopefully the managers, owners will do a better job training them.

We love Taylor Shellfish Farms! The oysters are phenomenal, and the rest of the menu never disappoints. They even offer great options for our friend with a shellfish allergy, which we really appreciate.
However, during our last two visits, we had unpleasant experiences with the man in a kilt. The first time, I had a rough day and thought a visit to Taylor would lift my spirits, but I was greeted by someone who came across as abrasive and unhelpful when I asked questions about the wine and oysters. A few weeks later, my family went and unfortunately had a similar experience, one person even said, āI feel like I need to go hide in the car until they figure out the seating for our group.ā
Itās disappointing because one personās attitude can really change the tone of an otherwise great place. We still love the views, the cozy fire pits in winter, and the option to buy oysters wholesale. Overall, Taylor Shellfish Farms is a wonderful spot, but a bit more warmth and friendliness from certain staff would make it perfect.

This is a beautiful spot. Although the menu is seafood-focused, the few other dishes available are exceptional, as is the artisan bread. My only suggestion would be to offer olive oil as an alternative to butter. I would also like to thank Ally for her wonderful service and her friendly, welcoming smile, which brought a lot of genuine human warmth to the experience. Thank you.

Beautiful location and great food! On the expensive side
Not the laid back place it used to be. You canāt enjoy food by the water anymore, no more self shucking or little fire pits to smoke your oysters. This place is ZERO kid friendly.
Today we came hoping we could buy some food from the restaurant to go and some oysters to shuck ourselves by the little beach thatās next to the restaurant. I stood in the ādine inā line for a long time while same thing happened to my husband on the store line.
I got to order first, some overcooked dry rice and some burnt corn for $35. They then sent me to wait inside the restaurant and so, I couldnāt keep track of my husband. When he ordered the oysters to go, he was told that he couldnāt shuck them on the beach because it was their property (not public) so he was sent to the restaurant line. He stood there for a very long time and when he got to the front he was told he could order the oysters to go (to the little beach) because that was outside their property. Really frustrating! Then, while feeding our kids on the beach, we were approached by one of the staff members and were asked to pack our things and finish our food at the restaurant. š¤¦š½āāļøš¤·š½āāļø we just left and are not planning to come back, sad to say that they are not what they used to be.

A bucket list experience! SPECTACULAR SCENERY, incredible oysters (you CANNOT find fresher oysters), the food coming off the grill is divine (we shared the Block Cod Collar w/lemon & miso, OMG! Iāll take a bucket of that!) The staff are pleasant and very accommodating. We live just ten minutes down the road in Fairhaven and cannot believe this is our first visit!!! We have visited The Taylor location in Seattle but to have this @ our doorstep is amazing! If you enjoy oysters, or seafood in general, or just a spectacular spot to grab a beverage and enjoy the BEST OF THE PNW, this is your place!!!

A great place to stop for oysters and sit by the water. Staff were incredible in helping us decide on oysters as they offered a great variety. A very laid back experience with so much charm.

After getting over the smell itās a beautiful place to enjoy your seafood by the water. The views with the lil light house is too cute. The service was great and helped with our ordering. The oysters were tasty & delicious. Sorry I canāt remember what came on the sampler but they all were great. I didnāt think I would enjoy the potato salad but it was good & paired well with the oysters. The fish my daughter had and she said it was a lil spicy. I really enjoyed going here taking in the views & good food and drinks.
