Exit and there is plenty of covered and uncovered outdoor seating while you wait for your order, which is called out at the counter window. We each got a coffee, and then split an Olga Rising breakfast biscuit sandwich, which was AMAZING. Soft and tender biscuit, perfect amounts of toppings, sweetness from the jam...just fantastic. Wouldn't hesitate to come back.

My partner and I went to Orcas Island for a much-needed weekend. Despite living in Seattle for…read moreyears, we had yet to explore the San Juan Islands. Good friends recommended Doe Bay Cafe to us. We ordered take out (beet fritters, a yummy salad, scallops, and dessert). We both LOVE to cook and eat out often. We were VERY impressed at the quality of food that we received! We savored every single bite. Needless to say, we will be heading back to Orcas AND to the Doe Bay Cafe sometime in the near future! We can't WAIT! We normally take photos of food that impresses us. We were too busy, reveling in the tastes, textures, and gloriousness of the dinner to remember to take photos. Until it was too late. Next time!

Beautiful location and space but we didn't have the best meal. Service was weirdly disorganized…read more(there's only 10 tables with 3 front of house staff and a manager, so it was not lack of staff.) There seemed to be confusion on basic things and we saw our meal sit out for a good while before anyone brought it over. The bartender was trying hard and did recommend a terrific wine. Our meal overall was just ok and for the prices and high end focused menu (all $40-$50 entrees- no sandwiches and few apps to share), it felt like they should decide to either step up to run a high price restaurant or make this place more casual and better priced. Our dinner here fell flat and we will likely go into Eastsound for dinner next time.

When visiting Orcas Island, we stopped at a cute little bistro just off the landing called Harmony…read moreHive Bistro Their vegan burrito was huge and packed with all kinds of tasty morsels, plant based sausage (YES!), potatoes, peppers and more, in all .. an absolutely delicious and filling way to kickstart the day. They have a small seating area on the inside, with a very colorful and welcoming vibe (even the bathroom is welcoming ) in addition to additional outdoor seating with amazing views of the Sound. When visiting Orcas Island and find yourself looking for a hearty vegan option that can feed multiple, I highly recommended making a stop at Harmony Hive Bistro, grab a quick bite to go or stay for a bit and enjoy the scenic views while allowing the smells of the Sound to permeate your senses!

Coffee, tea, smoothies, breakfast burritos, waffles, wraps, salads. Additional menu items available later in the day and evening. Really delicious food, carefully prepared, locally sourced. Friendly service. Inside and outside seating. Designed for those with time to kill before their ferry arrives as well as last-second arrivers happy they were able to get past the check-in booth and get a spot. Hours vary, depending on the day. Closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

We came here because the wait at our original restaurant was too long. So glad we made that choice!…read moreIt's a small place with only counter seating and a slight Japanese feel. Cozy and comfortable. We ordered the Thai green curry with chicken, chicken rice bowl, tofu Banh Mi, and macaroni salad. The green curry and Hawaiian Mac salad get rave reviews! The tofu on the banh mi was unflavored and huge pieces (like a tofu block cut in half). It definitely needed some chili oil and togarashi. Mixed reviews on the chicken rice bowl because the rice was slightly dry and teriyaki sauce tasted like soy sauce but the cabbage salad was delicious. Overall, I would come back. I'd definitely get the Mac salad and try some of their other dishes.

Great food and amazing wine selection. Bruce knows what he is doing…read more I stop here several times throughout the month to grab a bite to eat. The staff is friendly. The outside seating cozy. It's on the pricier side but worth it. And for a small island, the wine selection is excellent.

We got Veggie Quiche and Croque Monsieur. They were both sp good. I would definitely eat more veggie's if they tasted this good.

We even tried last…read moreyear when the power on the island went out - they were closed along with everyone else in the island, but we enjoyed cup of noodles in the parking lot with the kiddos, watching the deer and rabbits. The quiet location, wildlife, and outdoor seating with a view of the harbor is hard to find anywhere else. Plenty of room that reservations aren't usually needed and it's kid friendly with menu items for them and plenty of room to run around while percents continue sipping drinks on the deck and enjoying the love piano music. The food is good - we usually get a seafood entree and always save room for the blackberry cobbler. Don't miss this hidden gem the next time you're here.
