“I thought the pulled pork was super good! And I’ll go back for the mac n cheese any time - yum! My husband is a fan of their brisket and he even he had enough to have left overs for breakfast too. Yikes Matthew! Next time we’ll branch out with other menu items, though it’ll be difficult to leave such good ones in the kitchen! My only problem is we don’t get to Orcas often enough to enjoy this tasty place!“

“Pro Life Tip: when you see a line coming out the front door of a business - GET IN LINE! I was in Eastshore (from Nebraska) to purchase some coffee roasters from a local seller. I had some time to kill before my ferry back to the mainland left, so was walking around the cool downtown of Eastshore. My attention was drawn to a line of humanity spilling out the front door of one business and out onto the sidewalk. A quick Google told me it was a bakery and so I did the most sensible thing and JOINED THE LINE. When I got inside I was delighted to see Kouign Amann at the front of the pastry case. I had only recently learned of this demanding, difficult to make pastry and it was ALL I WANTED. A short wait later one was in my bag/Crumb Catcher! Here it is a week and a half later and i’m STILL THINKING ABOUT IT and writing this review. It was a-MAY-zing and I have little doubt that ANYTHING you choose will be just as memorable. These guys could probably FRANCHISE their knowledge & processes in places like Aspen, Park City, Jackson Hole, etc. - but then again, maybe not. Maybe you need the passion of two classically trained pastry chefs, in their own little wonderful corner of the world (Orcas Island, WA). In any event, if you find yourself on the island, you MUST make Brown Bear Bakery a stop. You will NOT regret it. How ANYONE could give this place ANYTHING less than 5 FULL STARS boggles the imagination.“

“Such an awesome little brewery!! A total locals place with delicious beer and food (the smoked salmon and cheese are insanelyyy good)! Cali was the Beertender and she was so sweet, knowledgeable and fun to talk too!!
There’s a room on the side that’s super private and great if you have a few dogs with you, tons of outdoor seating as well. Definitely will be coming back next time we are on Orcas :)“

“In a lot of towns you pass local pubs like this and think, meh, it's a tavern, let's look for something else. But towns need their taverns, and Eastsound is lucky to have The Lower! There is an obvious pride in ownership going on here. Clean, comfy and warm interior, supremely friendly and welcoming staff, a really wide selection of beers and wines that ain't common in most pubs, and filled with a great local energy - you can tell that this is a regular gathering place for the community. We were there on an Open Mic Tuesday, which added to the charm and fun. Outstanding burgers (the only food we tried on this visit) and reasonable prices. Just enjoy it.“

“i’ve photographed a couple weddings at orcas island winery and it’s a lovely spot. the winery has a wide lawn for sipping wine and hanging out, a beautiful venue for weddings or events. it’s intimate without feeling small, stylish without trying too hard. perfect place to visit for a slow afternoon or to rent for a celebration that feels relaxed and local.
