This isn't a restaurant but they do have some to go items and I had heard that the chowder was the best in Florence. I'd give it a good 3.5/4/.

We passed the Krab Kettle a few times and decided to stop in and grab a crab cocktail to try. We…read morewere a little late in the day around 5 and so they were sold out of the crab. My husband also wanted the bay shrimp cocktail which he said was ok maybe a little fishy. I am not a fan of bay shrimp due to their mushy texture so I had one small bite. The cocktail sauce was good and I was given some oyster crackers which the kids loved. They also have packets of lemon, hot sauce, salt, and pepper to add on your cocktail. The guy working was friendly and explained that I could always call ahead and order the crab cocktail. They would keep it fridgerated until I was able to pick it up. Would have done that if we weren't leaving at 6 am the next morning. There is a parking lot in the back as well as street parking out front.

Decent gas station located in Fred Meyer grocery store parking lot…read more They have about 8-10 pumps available. Most pumps are self-serve. We didn't see any employees pumping gas while we were there. They have snack and beverage vending machines available as well. Overall, we got what we needed, gas! The pump we used had a crappy lever on it. It kept clicking off like the tank was full, but we only had about a quarter tank when we stopped in. We ended up putting $80 of gas in the tank, but had to hold the pump lever the entire fill-up. A bit annoying.

I had a frustrating experience at this Safeway due entirely to an employee's attitude and refusal…read moreto help. I waited at the self-checkout for about 10 minutes just to turn in a can deposit ticket. When nothing happened, I went to a regular checkout instead. The cashier, an older woman named Sue, was immediately rude and dismissive. When I tried to hand her the ticket, she told me I had to go back to self-checkout and wait, claiming it was "not possible" to give me the money from her register. That's simply not true--I've turned in can deposit tickets at this exact Safeway through regular checkout multiple times before. Instead of helping or explaining calmly, she talked down to me and made the situation unnecessarily difficult. Policies don't excuse disrespect, and misinformation definitely doesn't help customers. This interaction wasted my time and guaranteed I won't be seeking help from that employee again.. I don't understand why people hire Rude individuals.

Not the best place to shop anyway: good prices on some wines, but otherwise, too hit or miss for…read moreother things, especially produce. Even if the goods *were* consistently good, the staff has gotten progressively weirder over the past several years. Florence can be a bit too post-high-school small town, but this store had decent employees until a year or so ago. Then there was the young very rude male who snarled my order through the checkout 1st time he was there and the crabby older woman who told me everyone *loved* him - until another long term employee said, Nope, several other complaints. I guess the young man got a talking to, because he at least acted like a grown up person working in a business after that. But then the two other long term employees started weirding out: the older man started making very inappropriate "funny" (not funny) comments while checking my items through, and the other long term employee started squeezing carts through corner aisles when I happened to be in those places. 1st time, maybe just chance, but 2nd time, in opposite corner, both times coming from across the store: nope. People should be able to just buy groceries and pay for them, without having to deal with whatever bigotries or bad days the employees are having.

I can't say enough great things about the new remodel at the Grocery Outlet here in Florence!…read moreWalking in, I was immediately impressed with how open, clean, and organized everything is now. The layout feels so much more intuitive, making it a breeze to find everything I need. The fresh produce section looks incredible--bright, vibrant, and so much more inviting. The aisles are wider, the shelves are well-stocked, and everything feels thoughtfully arranged. I've always loved shopping here for the unbeatable deals, but now it feels like I'm shopping at a high-end market without the high-end prices! The staff, as always, are friendly, helpful, and quick to greet you with a smile. You can tell a lot of care went into this remodel, and it has completely elevated the shopping experience. If you haven't stopped by since the remodel, you're missing out. Great prices, great people, and now a store that looks and feels fantastic! Florence, you've got a gem here.

We ended up ordering 4 donuts... chocolate frosted buttermilk bar, maple frosted buttermilk bar, regular old fashioned and chocolate frosted old fashioned. Since we showed up so close to closing, he threw in a couple extra donuts on the house! So nice! All the donuts were super fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend.

We had read that it was under new management and expected a full-on table service menu. Not so, we had to order and pay/tip at the counter before we got our food. We almost turned around and walked out but wanted to try the food. They are trying to get table service back but perhaps there is not enough business to bring it back. We had last stepped in here a year or so ago when it was a deli. Nothing was changed inside. My designer wife said the decor is horrible and screams WAKE ME UP! Tired white paint on the walls and almost zero artwork. There are some pieces of metal artwork in a few places on the walls but that is it. Paint is cheap and could make a world of difference with different colored window trim and wall (and the ceiling looks like it has not seen paint in years). Get some artificial plants and a couple trees. This place needs a marketing wake up call. Get on Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, and other social media and advertise. Get something to pull in people, especially locals. This is the ONLY RESTAURANT IN FLORENCE THAT IS ON THE BEACH, FOLKS! Take advantage of that fact! Even Yachats does not have a restaurant on the beach. Ona is as close as they get, and it is on the river delta near the beach. Sell some updated sweatshirts, t-shirts and hats and offer a free drink if they wear your garb on future visits. Alicia took our orders at the main desk up front and was friendly, energetic, and was very engaged with her clientele. She gave us recommendations on our food, and we loved that. We both had the smash burgers and fries, and they were excellent - exceeding our expectations. The burgers had great, fresh flavor, had yummy, melted cheese, lettuce, tomato and pickles. The sesame bun was a perfect vessel and did not fall apart. The fries were double fried and had a delicious crispy crunch. This place screams potential and needs some upgrades to bring in more business. We will be back but would really like to see it become a landmark restaurant on Florences only beach. We wish them well.
