Now you all know that I am one very picky eater I will be able to identify the best thing or the worst in a bite or two. It is 1:30 on a Thursday afternoon. I had heard they had good fish chips. So I already knew what I was going to be ordering. Hubby was going to order the same thing except a spied clubhouse sandwich, which is really hard to find these days and we just ordered a clubhouse sandwich with chili and we would split the both meals mine and his. Well let me tell you I was kind of regretted offering to split my fish and chips after the first bite. But I quickly snatched a half of his sandwich as he was chowing down on the lovely brisket chili. I knew it had to be extra extraordinary as he didn't even offer the smallest of bites to his wife. He just kept going on about how amazing that chili was. I never did get a bite. I didn't even ask I suppose in hindsight I should've because he informed me three different times. I would come here just for this chili. Now I suppose you all know by now my hubby will eat just about anything. He will rarely ever say something is bad. Hearing him say something is spectacular is just shocking . He informed me that that was the best chili he has eaten outside of New Mexico. I look at him and inform him that the fries are really very good. He looks at me with utter shock like I said the sea is pink with kangaroos swimming in it. He doesn't understand the words coming out of my mouth because I never say them I'm not a FRY girl. In fact I rarely even order fries, but it's fish and chips after all, you gotta do it. Mind you I'm about to take my first bite of this very nice very light very very, very beautiful piece of deep fried fish. I have my lime and squeeze it onto my first fish then dip a lovely piece of fish into the well bodied tartar sauce, and Nirvana absolute pure Nirvana. I am beyond aesthetic that this fish is within a mile of my doctors office. I am thrilled beyond words that it is not oily. It's not greasy. It is not overcooked. It is just perfection. I know that word coming out of my mouth is uncommon. I get that I'm gonna stand behind that fish until I'm dead. It was that good! Let's talk about that sandwich shall we this is Hand cut ham smoked turkey is beautiful the garlic mayo is amazing. The bacon is a little too crisp for me, but the toast is toasted correctly a little too much mayo on center toast but other than that the lettuce has not wilted by some miracle, and it is falling apart halfway through, but you can't expect anything more. Everything that was supposed to be dry was dry. Everything that was supposed to be moist was moist everything it was supposed to be crisp was crisp . There's three pieces of toast trying to hold that whole puppy together. It was an exceptional sandwich, and I finished a half of it, which I never eat that much food in one sitting so Hubby had a piece of fish. We took a piece of fish home. I had a piece of fish he ate the terrific bowl of chili and we both finished our sandwiches. Was it worth the $60? Hell yes all day long will I make it a monthly habit probably not but when I need fish and chips, I don't have to agonize any longer where I can find such Nirvana . Service by the way was great. Our waitress was absolutely friendly and sweet. She was the only one there she was taking way more tables and tending the bar too. Personally she had no business taken care of that many tables and the bar too but she handled it all beautifully and she gave us some advice. We talked about me being a FOOD snot /snob and she gave us a couple of names of restaurants if we were going to be visiting other areas of the PNW. I had admitted that I had not found any edible fish and chips in the Stanwood Camano area. Kristin thank you so very much for everything. We will be bringing our out of town guests to enjoy the great service and outstanding food soon! But next time I will have to just make sure that I get some of that chili for myself since clearly the hubby won't share his. Charming atmosphere and bathroom had both soap and paper towels! Table was clean. Tv was set for fifa and was not too loud at the time of day. The food arrived quickly and everything that was supposed to be hot was hot and everything that was supposed to be cold was cold and there's plenty of napkins and silverware. We didn't have to ask for anything. So it is an easy 5 star food service and atmosphere.

I noticed a bunch of slates with beer names and spotted a cider from Terramar advertising a Strawberry Rhubarb cider and decided I wanted to try that flavor combination. It was sweet with a little tart aftertaste. For my meal I opted for the Porterhouse Cheese Curds as an appetizer and the Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich with fries for my main dish. The cheese curds were nicely battered and fried and the housemade ranch was a nice accompaniment to the cheese curds. The spicy crispy chicken sandwich was only crispy on the outside where the batter was applied! The rest of the chicken was tender and juicy. So tasty . I didn't think the sandwich was all that spicy, but that would be my fault because I eat jalapeno like candy and routinely use habanero hot sauce on my food. Even though I didn't think it was all that spicy I did enjoy the flavor and crunch of the sandwich. There was a bunch of steak fries served with my sandwich. Excellent fries, but way too many for me to eat them all. I think I probably ate only 1/4 of them!! I was very tempted to order a slice of the chocolate cheesecake with housemade fudge for dessert, but I was stuffed by my appetizer and meal.

We enjoyed a couple of appetizers. The calamari was crispy and delicious, and served with a side of tasty aioli. Although not quite enough aioli, as we ran out about half way through the calamari and had to order more. (Tbh I was kinda surprised when I saw they had charged us for the "extra" aioli.) The hot artichoke dip was good, too, though the portion was pretty small for the price. I'd come back again, but maybe during happy hour as it might be a better value.

This little drive-up gem may look like your run-of-the-mill PNW coffee shop from the outside, but on the inside they are magically producing some mighty fine eats. My go-to here is their pulled pork sandwich. I keep telling myself I'll try something else next time...but I always default to the pulled pork. It's tender, juicy, and topped with their zesty homemade BBQ sauce. I love to order it with a side of their impossibly creamy mac 'n cheese and their simmered-for-hours Cowboy beans. It's enough food for lunch AND dinner. Okay, I told you this would happen: I'm craving Kelley's now.
