So glad I found this place! Great food, good prices and quality. Great staff and loved the seating area under the willow tree!
Outdoor seating to bring a jacket if it’s not a hot summer day.

Buck Bay Shellfish Farm is EXACTLY what you're expecting. A great spot to get great food. We had a dozen oysters. I had the salmon fish and chips, which was positively scrumptious! Go here. Enjoy!

Fish and chips - On point, some of the best ever.
Brisket at a shellfish place? Absolutely, melts in your mouth!
Not only is everything delicious, but they give you a more then fair portion too.
Bring a jacket as dining is al fresco and it's often breezy.

Really popular location in the middle of nowhere. It’s got quite a lovely scenery from their outdoor seating between the tented area or seating below a big willow tree. However I’m unimpressed by the flavor of the food as most of it lacked major flavor. I’ve had creamier chowder in any other seafood place in Seattle and the Clam Linguine was so basic it I regret paying $30 for it. The oysters are pretty fresh for the summer seasons so no complaints there. Expect expensive food prices here. Everything is in the mid $20-30 range minimum. And if you are here looking for flavorful seafood food, don’t be. You are better off getting everything fried.

Best dinner we had! The seafood is fresh and delicious! Great service and beautiful setting! Everyone was friendly and helpful which made it a great experience! We were amazed to find such great BBQ at a seafood restaurant! Our whole group was happy! We highly recommend the clams, halibut sandwich, and all of the BBQ options. If you happen to get lucky and the Dino bone is the special get that!

Bought a gorgeous halibut filet here and bbqed it at our outdoor air bnb oasis. They even packed it on ice to stay good on our bike ride back towards Orcas. When we rolled up on our bikes the place was poppin, lots of visitors and delicious smelling food being served!

I grew up in England, and this place has the second best fish and chips I've ever had. The halibut fish and chips has some of the best fish I've tasted. Everything else was good too, including the barbecue.

The setting is nice too; you sit outside and look at the bay. It's casual and fun.

Can't recommend highly enough.

Gorgeous oysters. Perfectly deep cups and a heavy salinity with a butter smooth finish. They had a chill band jamming under a beautiful willow tree. Dottie, the resident pup, was an angel. -Paw In Hand

No one comes here for oysters anymore. You will be a long line of people ordering fried foods. If raw oysters that you shuck and sit around eating on a farm is your goal, this has become a different kind of place.

Actually ate here twice during our stay on Orcas. Super friendly service and great seafood. The atmosphere sitting outside looking over the water was really wonderful. Highly recommend this if you’re on Orcas for any time.

Staff are incredibly nice. Wait time is definitely very lengthy. Probably my fault for not ordering seafood, but got enticed by the smoked bbq. Smoke ring/crust on the brisket was flavourful but texture was more on the dry side.

So now I'm ruined. They simply had the best fish sandwich I have ever had. Now I will be like a junkie trying to fill the joins of the amazing flavors. Worth the whole fairy ride. And the fries where top notch as well. Put this place on your bucket list and you can thank me later. Go get ya some.
