Husband was looking for crab for our anniversary. We found this place and we're just so thankful. A 10:99 a pound they were one of the most affordable places for cooked crab. This is a no-frills place and you pretty much take your crap to go. The people working the counter were super friendly. So bring your rice from home and go to one of the beautiful spots in Anacortes and enjoy a gourmet no frills dinner! read more

Fantastic seafood stop! They've got an amazing rule - If you see it in our cases not frozen, it never has been frozen. Freshness is their biggest asset! Man those shrimp were fantastic. Don't expect to come to black rock for a wine and dine experience, this is pretty much a spot to pick up fresh boiled seafood, and take it to a picnic spot, or back home, but it's some of the sweetest, freshest tasting shrimp around. Looking forward to our next visit! read more

Popular seafood pickup spot in Anacortes. Parking is easy as there's enough space for 6 cars. Pretty transactional. Don't expect bubbly customer service like Shrimp Shack. We come here for Dungeness crab. Shrimp are small but good. We usually drive to Deception Pass State Park, find a table, and eat our seafood there. We bring our usual party utensils, seafood tools, gloves, and rice. Make sure you check the Jet Carrier Training Schedule. It can get really loud if you don't time it right. read more

We cane here for the first time and honestly..there was one older man that was very helpful and sweet and provided us details about the spotted shrimp options, but the two ladies at the front register were giving us very unpleasant stares, no greeting just a total and we were out the door. Those ladies did not make us feel very welcomed which kind of sucks cause they are representing the company at the front desk! We came with 7 people and I asked them what their experience was like that they thought exactly the same thing. Only reason for the two stars is for the older man that helped us. Give him their raise. read more

Great seafood and service too. Good prices fresh clams our favorite. Packed with ice for the ferry trip too. read more

Seafood was amazing, especially the spot prawns! This one guy that helped us was great and friendly! He answered all our questions. Everyone else seemed standoffish though when we asked questions. It made me feel like we were silly for asking certain questions. read more

super fresh and friendly and helpful. Plenty of frozen options as well. I purchased halibut cheeks and they were wonderful! Also picked up fresh and smoked coho and sablefish. Had to look for it since it is off the main road but really glad I made the effort. read more

Very fresh seafood offerings. Helpful service; they'll clean your crab so you don't have to!

Superior seafood but pricey! Hey you get what you pay for but I have to say the two spotted prawns at $16 were well worth the first experience! They were outstanding! Wonderful friendly staff! read more

Stopped in to pick up some fresh crab for dinner. Had heard the place looks like they sell out of the back of their house but it was fine. Great service, cleaned them for free, and the crab was spectacular that night! read more

I love these guys! Fish is always top both gone, and the service is even better! It's to the point where, when I'm starting another charter, I call the day before and voila! I get exactly what I want! I get only RAVE reviews from my guests, too. If their fish were any fresher, they would have jumped into the boat. Love shopping local and LOVE Black Rock! read more

They had GREAT oysters! We got the small sized shucked oysters that came in the little container and they were bigger than expected, very filling!

Went here to see if they had any crab for Christmas Eve. I did not call ahead but was told that they could sell me 3 crab. The ones in the case were beautiful 1.5 to 2 lbs. I paid them $59.67. when I got to my truck I opened the cooler and they had sold me 3 crab measured 4" across the body. I do not believe that they are even legal to have let alone sell. These guys just decided to stick it to me on Christmas. They advertise $13.50 per lb. all 3 crab weigh 1.1 lbs and they charged me almost $60. Merry Christmas guys! read more

They had everything we needed to make Paella! Called in advance and they had everything ready to go.

I don't know how the food is because I was immediately yelled at to take my medically necessary service dog outside. I am a disabled veteran and I need to have my service dog with me. To think it is ok to treat anyone with such disrespect is beyond me. The owner is a rude a$$ and hopefully he has the life he deserves. Anyone who wants to be treated respectfully should go to U.S for U.S Seafood. read more

Top notch service AND top notch seafood!! My wife and I stopped here for some fresh king salmon. It was almost the end of the day so they only had a small piece of salmon in the fresh case. Without any prompting one of the guys offered to fillet a whole king for us. It turned out to be a white king - super lucky and very tasty!! Thanks so much!! read more

Best prices. Highest quality. Amazing service. Real expertise. What else can be said?

OMG...thank you Black Rock for saving my Mother's Day! I had stopped at another nearby oyster place but they were out of half-shelled goodness, so I Yelped for the next closest place and discovered Black Rock. They're a little off the beaten path, but well worth the trip for their great selection of fresh seafood - not to mention their unbeatable prices. I was able to procure two dozen shigoku oysters for only $20/dozen (that's about 1/3 what I would have paid in a restaurant) and they were AHHHHmazingly fresh. The oysters were a hit at our Mother's Day getaway - the only problem was that I didn't get more. I will 100% return here the next time I need the good stuff! read more

Fresh fish was high quality. We were concerned when we drove up, as the place was older, and appeared a little run down. Found the service and products to be first rate! read more

Great place to grab fresh seafood and a few recipes to boot. Fun guys to banter with as well. Thanks from the Aussie and the Texan! read more

As we are driving up we were a little skeptical of the place. We walked in and the walkers there were very helpful, you could tell that they knew what they were talking about containing fish. Everything looked fresh and amazing! read more

Was invited to dinner by a friend. Didn't want to go empty handed. Heard that spotted shrimps. So since we were in the area we stop at the Black Rock. First impressions...hole in the wall operation but legit. Saw fishing/crabbing gear next the the store. They didn't have spotted shrimps! BUT OMG... The Coonstriped Shrimp (smaller in size) was so fresh, tender and sweet. Never had anything like it. read more

Friendly and fresh Their location and shop adds depths to their story. I know it will be part of mine. Fresh cooked shrimp and an filet of char. We will be returning while in the area. read more

For the halibut, I took a trip out to Black Rock Seafood today, with crabby thoughts and feeling a little shrimpy. The customer before me took the last of the shrimp, but more would be in later. The owner pointed out that the crab wasn't that good, missing legs and such, as was just the tail end of the batch of crabs, more in later but I wasn't waiting. Rather than continuing to feel crabby, I bought some scallops (garlic, butter and lemon at home) as well as some halibut for tomorrow. The scallops were yummy, just finished them. Fair price for fresh scallops. Cooked with garlic and butter, lemon added to finish. I'll have to go back for shrimp and crab. Darn. Covid Report: two customers maximum in shop, staff and all customers were wearing masks, plexiglass shield over cash register... Doesn't get much better. Only flaw noted was there were the painted lines for social distancing... only about 5 feet apart or less. Customers were ignoring them and standing so far apart I couldn't get them all in one picture. read more

Black Rock Seafood - Socially distant line. 6 people waiting. Two closer together were in the same car. - Seafood Markets Near Me - Anacortes, Washington

The shrimps and pawns are so fresh and delicious! The owner and staff are super friendly and patient to introduce their best select.

My daughter was in town visiting...of course I was over the moon. She lives in Southern California and so thought frozen Alaskan King crab legs were awesome. Lol. We educated her a few years ago as to what fresh Dungeness crab is. We usually catch it ourselves but since we're out of season we found Black Rock Seafood. We made the trip from Coupeville to Anacortes and were pleasantly surprised! We purchased 4 fresh caught but cooked crab at $12.99 lb. which is much cheaper than the frozen, uncooked offerings at our local grocery stores. They even cleaned them for free!! We also bought 50 oz of x-small, shucked oysters and 2 dozen x-small shelled oysters. All less than $160!! We will be returning. Thank you to the 2 sweet gentlemen that served us. . read more

Great, fresh seafood from the region. Not cheap because it is actually fresh and local, but not over priced either. Market rates. Cool little spot ons sode road, almost out of the back of the house feel. We were visiting town and grabbed some great salmon and some big local prawns. Got a nice quick tutorial on how to break off their beaks and not get stabbed by it! Lots of seafood in the freezers too. read more

Stopped by for the first time today on my way back home from Anacortes to grab some live crab. Young girl and boy went to fetch the crab and I asked if I could come see the operation and she politely said I couldn't. Staff seemed nice enough, so I trusted them. I got home opened gave me a crab without claws (or 1 mini claw which was inedible). I understand they all have their casualties, but I would have like to be asked or told...or let me pick my own like other markets do. I didn't see any of these clawless ones in their cold display case? Now I am wondering if they weighed them correctly and over charged me. Shady...I won't be back. read more

We love this place the shrimp is always fresh, the service is always friendly and always on point. They always package the shrimp to go neatly with ice. We feel like this extra step is what puts them over the top compared to the other shrimp/seafood places in Anacortes. We really appreciate it. Thank you. read more

Awesome spot to buy seafood to go. We picked up cooked dungeoness crab and oysters here and the staff were super knowledgeable. They cleaned our oysters and crab for us before we left. We'll definitely be repeat customers read more

This place has really great customer service. The prices are fair and they have a nice selection of seafood. Always try to stop here when we are passing through. read more

Amazing fresh seafood and great people. I wish I could buy all my seafood here but I live an hour away

Been coming here for years great fresh shrimp! We also came a little earlier than opening (11AM) but they were nice enough to take us in :) read more

Great price, great help from all behind the counter. Worth the 60 mile round trip a couple times a year. This owner knows what a dollar is worth and knows how to treat his real return customers. read more

Hidden gem. People working here are nice and the goods are as fresh as they come. Be sure to get there early or call ahead to make sure the seafood you want is available. For us it's quite a drive, a beautiful one but it is nice to know you're not going to Anacortes just for the drive. read more

A bit off the beaten path, expecting it to be down by the water somewhere, and a bit sketchy-looking when you drive up. Once inside though, you know it's the real deal and you're just where you want to be. Wonderful selection of fresh and frozen seafood. The frozen is labeled, dated, and vacuum sealed in a food saver bag so it's as easy as taking it home and tossing it in the freezer. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. I tried the halibut cheeks, king salmon and black cod. Lots of incredible dinners since. read more

The freshest seafood at reasonable prices. Where else can you get fresh halibut at $18.99 per pound. It little bit off the beaten path but worth the effort. Compares to the Wild Salmon in Seattle but much less expensive. We stop here every time we visit Anacortes(about once per month) to stock up for a weeks worth of fish. Great customer service. They will provide plenty of ice if you need it read more
