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.

Stopped by on a Saturday morning. A line was out the door, but it moved quickly. They had an…read moreassortment of pastries in the case, as well as an extensive drink menu. 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.

We only had to wait a few minutes before we were seated and the service was quick. We had good orange and cranberry juice. The breakfast burritos were BIG and filled to the brim. I had l pico, and avocado to my ham burrito and my wife added the same plus sour cream. It was reasonably priced and delicious! We were only able to eat half of our burritos which the waitstaff could tell, so they brought us a few pieces of follow with a chuckle to take home the leftovers.

Food was great. Props to the cooks in the back for getting our party of 5 order right…read more Service was kind however VERY slow. When entering they had a few groups ahead of us, I one greeted us but made eye contact so we waited patiently. A family came in after us and walked to the waiter and asked for a table... I immediately spoke up because RUDE. They sat us and then that other party. So all good, but then they went and took their drink order before us. I was disappointed and decided they were both in need of manners and customer service. Anticipate a wait and hopefully they will be better staffed when you visit!

We tried the Mac & cheese and the smoked beats, and we'll be thinking about the beets for a while. Our friends were equally impressed with the chicken fat roasted potatoes and the soup!

This little place is a hidden gem which should not be missed. While visiting on a weekend, we heard…read moreabout this place from a local. It is a little stand facing the street, which looks underwhelming at first glance. BUT, they offer delicious coffee and delicious breakfast sandwiches and fast friendly service for a reasonable price. Don't skip on the spicy breakfast sauce. I don't typically like spicy sauces especially on breakfast food but it is SO good. We make it a rule not to go to the same places when on vacation so we can try new places but we broke it here. We went back both mornings because the sandwiches were so good. The only downside is there is no place to really sit and eat outside so you would need to take your food to go and sit in your car, go back to hotel or air bnb, unless it is nice out and you can find a bench somewhere. Overall, this place was a hit and I suggest you try it if ever in Friday Harbor.
