I have never left a negative review for a restaurant in my life, but I felt like this needed to be…read moresaid. I've spent time in Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi, and was more than excited to finally get a Vietnamese place back in Oak Harbor. I ordered the shrimp fresh spring rolls, pork banh mi, and beef vermicelli bowl. After dipping my spring rolls in the flavorless peanut sauce, the first bite overwhelmed my senses with the taste and smells of cooked shrimp that had been left in the baking sun for hours. I'm not sure how they recreated this flavor in late February in Oak Harbor. I tossed the spring rolls after the first bite. Next was the banh mi, which I thought would be the star of the show after seeing they made it the OG way with pate'. After biting into it, I was met with the shock of being dunked in an ice bath by the cold slices of fatty pork. Not room temperature, but refrigerated cold. It was one of the most unappetizing things I've ever subjected my mouth to. I popped it into the microwave for 30 seconds and it was about as good as it sounds. At this point in my culinary journey, my confidence in the vermicelli bowl was quite low. After pouring the room temp (Swanson's chicken broth??) onto the bowl I could only take a few bites before tossing this as well. I ordered 3 of the 4 non-dessert items on the menu (didn't try the pho) and all of it was served with room temperature or below meat (Danger!). Needless to say I spent the next few days in the bathroom as my body needed to expel the harmful bacteria. I also do want to say that my order was for pickup and I ate them within 10 minutes of being served to me. These were definitely not plated warm. After a $47 bill (they charged me a $1 fee for each item that I got to go ) I realized I should have just gone to Naung Mai if I wanted anything resembling an authentic SE Asian culinary experience here in Oak Harbor. The one good thing I can say about Trinh's Corner is that whoever is creating the menu is on top of the social media food trends. They serve a biscotti croffle, which is a desecrated croissant covered in preserved processed sugar. All the rage on TicToc right now, although I'm not sure how they will pivot when the fad dies down in 6 months. #stillwaitingforgoodfoodinoakharbor

I have never had Pho or any other Vietnamese dishes before and Oak Harbor had its first Vietnamese…read morerestaurant open a few weeks ago. So I decided to give it a try. I ordered the Chicken Pho and also Chicken Bahn Mi. I was very pleased with my order and thoroughly enjoyed my lunch at Trinh's Corner on SR 20 in Oak Harbor. The pho was awesome, and this from someone that typically does not like soups. The light broth was tasty and the chicken was tender. The owner came by my table and welcomed me to his restaurant. I told him that I had never had Vietnamese food before. He told me that typically the diner would dip the chicken slices (or whatever protein) in a mix of sriracha and hoisin sauce. But he cautioned that it would be spicy. I assured him that I love spicy and proceeded to take his advice! The bahn mi was also incredibly yummy. While the pho had slices of chicken the bahn mi had cubes of chicken, as well as slices of cucumber, carrot, onion, and jalapeno, with spring onion and cilantro. The restaurant was very clean, bright, and airy. The staff is friendly, polite, and helpful.

You can tell a lot of care goes into the details. The drinks my husband and I ordered were spot on--flavorful, well-balanced, and clearly made with intention. Everything felt thoughtfully done, from the presentation to the overall experience. We'll definitely be coming back, and honestly, I wish I could join their team--that's how great the vibe is. If you're looking for a place with personality, great drinks, and a memorable atmosphere, this is it.

Every month is a different theme in the bakery and you'll never get the same thing twice (unless you're lucky!) Octobers theme was Harry Potter and they went above and beyond. Food and decor was 1000/10 !!! I tried the golden snitch (butterbeer cap pop) , blood bag (strawberry lemonade), and the Dexter (cinnamon sugar donut with caramel syringe). Everything was decorated sooo nice and tasted amazing !! The month of Novembers theme is Game of Thrones. Once again, they out did themselves with the decoration ! I tried their dracarys (sparking orange juice, lemonade and strawberry puree), the Jon Snow ( double chocolate Oreo brownie cookie), purple potion (blue raspberry guava lemonade, and a wildfire (green apple lemonade in a potion bottle ) !! I will be retuning this weekend !!! The service is TOP TIER !!!! Everyone loves their jobs and try's to make each customer enjoy the experience. I met the owner today and she was delightful!!!

This isn't a sterile chain shop--it's a warm, sunshiny hub built from beautiful wood tones, welcoming you to slow down and stay awhile. What immediately strikes you is how wonderfully curated the space is. Despite being "jam-packed" with thousands of quality used and collectible books, the store manages to feel open, airy, and inviting. The selection is fantastic, especially their deep cuts in Pacific Northwest History, general fiction, and esoterica. Browsing is a delight thanks to the meticulous organization that makes finding that hidden literary gem feel like a genuine discovery. The "Coffeehouse" part of the name is equally crucial. Serving delicious, locally-sourced coffee (like Olympia Coffee Roasters beans) and boasting a pastry case filled with unique treats--the legendary rosemary sea salt rolls, figgy bars, and baked goods are must-tries--it perfectly complements the reading experience. The friendly, attentive staff, who are clearly passionate about bookselling, are always ready to offer a recommendation or assist, often going above and beyond. Whether you're looking for a quiet, bright nook to get some work done, a comfortable chair to sip a vanilla bean latte, or an engaging evening out for a poetry reading or live piano music, Pelican Bay delivers. It's a bookstore with character, clearly beloved by locals and a mandatory stop for any visitor. It's the kind of place you'll remember long after you've left Anacortes. Highly, highly recommend!

I will say that the staff gave off some pretty strong "i do not want to be here" energy, which was noticeable and did affect the vibe a little. and for the price point, i expected to be a bit more wowed. but that being said, island pricing is island pricing, i get it, that's just kind of the reality of a place like whidbey. overall: decent spot, great dietary restriction options, food is solid. would recommend if you need accommodating menu options or want a reliable meal.
