Was in the area and I heard the food was good. In town for the weekend and gotta say this place has fresh fried seafood! We got the endless fish and regretted it because my eyes were bigger then my stomach. None the less I would come back and try other items because its that good. The place was clean and the employees are friendly. Thats my review. read more

I have only been 2x over my years visiting that area. Every single time we go there, the food is delicious. I love Skippers. I love the bread bowl clam chowder! Super delicious. Not only that, the staff is always so friendly and kind. And not in some fake way at all! In a genuine way. They truly appreciate the business. I want to keep them open for as long as we possibly can! Not saying that I think they're going out, I just would hate to lose that location. Please support them and eat there or keep ordering From them! I'm so sick of the same ole common foods that kitsap county has. Skippers is literally one of its kind in that area so let's support them! Thank you! read more

The food was delicious at a reasonable price for a casual atmosphere. You order at the register, take a number, and your food is brought to you, hot and fresh! We had the four piece fish and chips. Yum! read more

This location has been updated and looks nice inside. They have TV's as well. We went in shortly before they closed. Everyone was so friendly and our food came out fast. They have a good variety in the condiment bar. Had nice upbeat music playing. I appreciate how clean it was in there. If you don't want coleslaw, they had other sides you can choose from. We chose the hush puppies, but I wasn't too impressed with them. But I like that you can pick something else. read more

Visiting from out of state and this seems similar to Captain D's or Long John Silvers. We did not have any issues with the menu selections offered nor the quality. We got scallops, prawns and clam strips, very good. We waited about 5 minutes and food was delivered to our table. We would eat here again. read more

Here for the Peninsula Dog Fanciers show at the fairgrounds Childhood throw back so when I saw one I had to stop. All skippers in the Seattle metro have closed and never reopened. I heard there are a few left. Inside the restaurant it was spotless clean a friendly staff member took my order. I asked what type of fish. Personally I like cod and haddock this was pollock. I've not had it generally so I was going to see what's up. The clam chowder was hot, for me a bit salty and didn't taste clams. For me was very starchy but it is what it is. Not for me. The chips were typical food service type but hot and crispy. Cole Slaw was good. Nice flavour and crispy cabbage etc I was pleasantly impressed with two traditional tartar sauce. One sweet and one with dill. Personally the dill is original not a fan of sweet but glad the gave that option. Over all place was clean food was fresh and hot and most importantly staff was great Will I come back? If in the region sure why not! read more

Silverdale Skipper's Restaurant is an absolute gem! The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, with generous portions that were well worth it. The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. What really stood out was the friendly, attentive service -- the staff made us feel right at home from start to finish. Everything came out quickly and tasted amazing. I'll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great dining experience! Definitely my go to spot!!! read more

definitely do not order the clam chowder... There's no way this is like it came out of a can and I'm pretty sure it did. Don't even try to find clam in this chowder... The color is even off. is terrible! There's absolutely salads and only fried food if that's what you're looking for. It's not cheap... Tried the halibut fish and chips and the shrimp along with my chowder. Halibut wasn't terrible but nothing was great. The fries were disgusting... the men working here seemed great, but the gal was terrible read more

What a great old school throwback! Thanks guys for a lunch down memory lane. typing more to reach 85 characters.

I had the chicken strip and they were better than any place I've had chicken strips from. The manager was here and talking with patrons and he was just a very nice person and his employees were great with excellent customer service. The restrurant was cleaner than most restaurants I frequent. read more

I have never once had a bad experience at this fine establishment. The service is always on point. The food is delicious. And let me tell you, the ambiance is choice. Cheers boys. read more

We have been fans of skippers for years, but it's been hard to find one that was good. Happily we had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. I'm not sure who was on staff on Wednesday afternoon, but they were helpful and very friendly. Wonderful staff and... The food was great read more

Wow, beautiful brand new restaurant. Everything clean and new. The fish was fresh and fantastic. Of course the skippers chowder. Let's face it, most of what has been left of skippers gets by on nostalgia. The only other open restaurant is old and while it's a time capsule, it frankly isn't appealing anymore. This restaurant makes you realize that done in this way, Skippers, for real, could still succeed as a chain. No, it's not cheap, but neither is any other fish and chips meal worth having today. read more

Talk about a childhood throwback! Today my husband and I decided to stop by Skippers Seafood & Chowder in Silverdale, Washington for the first time in over 15 years for myself. Not only was the food delicious and hot still by the time we got home, but the service was so pleasant, and the supervisor that was working and training his new hire was doing such a great job instructing while keeping up with all of the customers. My husband got halibut and chips, I got chowder and a few scallops - yum! Also to note, this location is so much more modern and bright than I remembered it from growing up!! Super impressive staff, hard at work cleaning a busy dining room, overall a great stop! We will be back for the food and for the customer service. read more

Service was good they were busy and still got my food ready in a reasonable time. The place looked clean even though they were busy. Chowder was tasty but the cod fish was as way too thick with breading! Was not good at all. For paying close to 50 dollars the fish should have been better quality. Look you should do better! Won't go back not for the money we spent and the low quality fish. read more

Greatest economical seafood restaurant in the state. Been going to Skippers for 41 years. Love everything about them. Good fish, great chowder and coleslaw plus their sauces are outstanding. What day is all you can eat at this location? read more

The service was great even though we came just before closing. I got the 2 piece fish combo and loved it! The chowder is excellent! The place is clean and relaxing so it was a great way to end our evening. read more

Let me start this review by saying I have been dining at and loving Skipper's for nearly 50 years. I have dined at Skipper's locations all over the PNW in all their iterations (full-service restaurants and the tiny 'Go Fleet' locations embedded in other businesses). After dining at the Silverdale location, I wish to award them the distinction of GOAT (Greatest Of All Time). This includes all Skipper's I've visited in the past. THE ROSES: Ample parking. Easy to find. Reasonably good location (if you live in west Puget Sound). Spooky clean. Nicely appointed with large screen TVs if you want to watch news or sports while you dine. All foods executed perfectly. It is clear they filter their frying oil regularly, and pay careful attention while they're cooking; nothing is overdone. A real standout is the staff. They are uniformly pleasant, efficient, and professional. They appreciate your business and it clearly shows. They make what is already a pleasant visit downright special. THE THORNS: Nothing. THE VERDICT: I honestly don't know why the Skipper's chain fell into decline. It could be that fish and chips simply wasn't cheap fast food (note that in the PNW, all the casual seafood restaurants like H. Salt and others folded up). It is great to see a few Skipper's still around; it is a shame that there are none in the Seattle area. I suppose it's all for the best that this Silverdale Skippers is not convenient for me; if it was I'd probably weigh 400lbs! Totally recommend; it's even worth making a pilgrimage to! read more

It's skippers, the fish was from Tetris but nonetheless good but to me, skippers is all about the chowder! Dipping the fish and fries into the chowder brings back warm memories of my youth with my folks. read more

Had a good meal at Skipper's. Good portions and tasty. I enjoyed very much the fish and chips. I had clams, shrimp, and oysters on the side as well. All very good! I'm from out of town and looked up where I could eat some seafood and found Skipper's. I believe it was the owner and another gentleman working with him... you guys were very friendly, courteous, and provided such great customer service...it was much appreciated! What a winning combination, good food and great friendly customer service! These days it's hard to find. Thank you very much:) - Gal from San Diego:) read more

Every-time the staff is friendly and competent, the food is piping hot and good too. Clean, tasty. It's a shame a few squeaky-wheel cry babies left a bunch of One star reviews because of pandemic politics. . In the immortal words of Snoop Dogg- "if you're (that) scared, go to church" read more

Coming from out of town. Pretty surprised when we walked in. Haven't stepped foot in a Skippers in many many years. Place was clean, nice dining environment and up to date music. Bathrooms were clean. Service was outstanding and the food was hot. Love the sauce bar!!! They have beer and wine available. read more

The clam chowder bowl didn't even have any clam or anything , it was basically flavored water. The flavor wasn't all that good either . At least the bread was good read more

The Food was Fresh. Yay! The Service was Stupendous. Yay! The Floor is Clean! Yay! The Atmosphere is Awful. Boo... Boo. Minus 2 Stars. My wife and I are sensitive. We had to leave the restaurant as the music was Too Loud, Full of "explicit" lyrics, and the Bass was turned Way Up. That music would be appropriate to a dance club. Mr. Owner, you made the music how You like it. But not how we like it. Your choice is not for us. We had to leave. The Manager was extremely polite, and changed our order "to go" and he threw in some extras as an apology. That man was awesome. I didn't get his name. All the employees were really nice. People aren't coming there to listen to music, but to satisfy their hunger. We will visit again, and hope that in the next time, 1. Turn the volume down. 2. Turn the bass down. 3. Put on the least offensive music you can find. Not the Most Offensive. 4. If you spent money on TV's and Music System then sell it. Focus on the Food, it will serve you far better to get rid of the gadgets. thank you. read more

I really love coming here to this location. The food reminds me of when our family would go to Skippers in Kirkland when I was a kid. But mostly I come to this location for the people. Everyone is very welcoming, nice and always attentive. read more

The food was hot, freshly cooked, and tasted great! I was very happy with the food, but what REALLY impressed me was the customer service on every level! Friendly, professional, knowledgeable, everyone working seemed genuinely happy to be there, and everything appeared to be spotlessly clean! Just an all around great experience and I'm so glad I tried them. It was my first visit and the guy at the restaurant was so friendly and described menu items with a sense of pride that was genuine and impressive. read more

The Skipper's Restaurant used to be very nasty in terms of not clean and awful service, before Mike took over and revamped everything. I really give him credit for having a dream and following through. He takes good care of his customers. Skippers is what Skippers is, it's fried food all the way across the board for the most part. There are a couple of other items but you're going to get fried food. I do like that he serves fresh and tasty food plenty of sides to season up whatever he might have missed while cooking it in the pot. My only complaint is his chowder is over-salted. read more

This is a great update on a classic for me, I wish my local skippers back home was this nice. Fish and chips was excellent, tartar was classic and good chowder brought me back to my youth, rock on! read more

Good food. Everything was hot and served quickly. I would recommend this place to anyone. The place was clean and comfortable.

I previously rated this place 5 stars for their food and service. But I have to reduce this down to a one star. They unfortunately got rid of the two things that I would get there which is unfortunate but moreso I have to reduce it down because of their lack of care during this covid pandemic. None of them wear masks even though it's state mandated, no one was even wearing gloves or any kind of safety precautions at all. After a customer called them out on their lack of masks and the customer left, they continued to loudly make fun of them and say that this is all like the flu, will go away after the election , etc etc etc. Even if this is something the owner personally believes he should be enforcing his business to follow the mandates and not only use proper safety precautions but also should never ever criticize guests in front of others. Completely disappointed in this behavior. read more

The food is actually pretty good, but the dinner atmosphere is weird. It was odd listening to cat/ Alvin and the chipmunk covers of songs. Employees were nice. There's just something about this place that seems off read more

Fantastic all you can eat Cod. Really clean. Friendly staff. Chowder was great, coleslaw was classic. Fries seasoned just right and piping hot. Had a side of scallops that were delish. Diner forget the hushpuppies!!! read more

By far the BEST Skippers left around! We live about an hour southeast of Silverdale and when we make our day trip to Silverdale, Skippers is ALWAYS on the list for lunch or dinner. The staff is always so friendly and the food is always on point. We have a Skippers about 20 minutes from our house and we would still rather make the trip to this one because the food is always so good. Highly recommend! read more

Brest clam chowder bread bowl I have ever had!!! Not only do they give you the inside and top of the bread bowl, but they also toast all of the bread with butter. Definitely don't need to get any crackers with their bread bowl. Gonna get their bread bowl every time I crave chowder read more

I loved the food as always. The manager was doing an amazing job making sure the people were separated and the tables and booth was done regularly. The problem that I did have was that one of the workers came in to eat before her shift, went to the back to cook her food while the manager was preoccupied doing tables and helping customers and cooked her own food without wearing a mask. I told the manager, and he said he didn't see her do it, which was true. She got angry because I told him. She kicked the door to the kitchen and started banging stuff around in the back. Unprofessional as hell. I will come back next year, but I was not happy! read more
