    Stop for some brews. Absolutely love this place. Good beer, we didn't order food. However what I saw looked good. Typical bar food. Friendly service, good prices and would go back. Restrooms are clean. I recommend this place before the ferry ride.

    Classic Local Spot with Great Food, Drinks & Small-Town Charm The Filling Station in Kingston is exactly the kind of place you hope to find when visiting a small town--laid-back, full of character, and loved by locals. Just a short walk from the Edmonds-Kingston ferry, it's a perfect stop whether you're arriving in town or wrapping up a day of exploring the peninsula. Established in 1980, this bar and grill feels nostalgic in all the right ways. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, with plenty of memorabilia and personality on the walls. It's not fancy, but definitely not a dive either--just a cozy, welcoming place that clearly has a long history of good times. The cocktails are well made, the food is consistently delicious, and the servers are friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Whether you're grabbing a burger, sandwich, or something off the daily specials board, the menu has something for everyone. The bathrooms can get a little messy during busy hours, but they're usually kept reasonably clean. And yes--lots of locals hang out here, which is always a good sign. All in all, The Filling Station is a great place to relax, enjoy a solid meal, and feel like part of the community--whether you're just passing through or lucky enough to live nearby. I definitely recommend it!

    Service was fast and my sandwich was delicious. Tables were dirty when we came in but it didn't detract from the joint. Conveniently located as you come off the ferry.

    Small pizza with double pepperoni...  So good!

    I'm local to this place and I love it. I've had the fish tacos many times and they are amazing. The chipotle sauce is the key. Anywho, this was the first time I got the double pepperoni pizza, and it was so good! It's a "build your own", not a specialty pizza on the menu. Anywho, the dough/slice is "foldable" and has good chew. IYKYK. So freakin good! Staff is amazing.

    Solid food and great atmosphere. Easy to get to and easy to find parking. The burgers and pizza are always a good choice.

    These little rolled-up burnt pieces of hard, fried breadcrumbs sold as "clam basket".  No trace of any clam material.

    Worst "dining" experience ever in my life. The drinks came in 10 minutes. Then we were completely ignored for at least an hour. ("Sorry, we had a lot of take-out orders today so we couldn't serve dine-in customers.") But wait! There's more! MUCH more & much worse! FALSE ADVERTISING: The menu had a "Clam Basket" that contained no clams. When it finally came, the server said "here's your 'clam STRIPS' ". Nothing about 'strips' on the menu and nothing about clams in the order. They were little worm-like bits of breaded breading, and burned, too. I couldn't eat a bite after tasting it. And there's nothing inside the breading but more breading. When you're hungry, it's more than disappointing to find out you'd be better off eating Shit! Why put garbage on the menu, or things that aren't even in stock? In addition, the coleslaw was rancid and also inedible. That left ketchup and mayonnaise. For $18 plus tax. They should call it an ale house and just sell ale. Or call it Captain Port-o-John's - with drinks. You're better off scooping your dinner from an outhouse. The Worst of the Worst of the WORST. I've been served rotted fish before, but never had burnt breadcrumbs masquerading as shellfish. Worst thing I've ever had in decades & decades of dining out. WORST OF ALL TIME. WOAT!

We like his HOT BUTTER RUMS... yum especially after a day of putting up Christmas lights in the cold :/

    Their happy hour is $1 off domestic beer and well drinks. Food is the same price. Fish and chips were delicious!

You can pick two sides and I got potato salad and rotkohl (red cabbage). It was a very hearty and filling meal. The schnitzel with the mushroom gravy was delicious! I loved the sides too. My sister got the shepherds pie which was also great! Very flavorful and came with a fresh side salad. They have indoor seating and some outdoor seating on the balcony overlooking Poulsbo. I'd recommend sitting outside if it's a nice day! Definitely recommend this place if you're in Poulsbo. The portions are big, the food is delicious, and the staff are friendly and nice.

Unfortunately, the service really took away from the experience. Our server, Jennifer Burnett, was noticeably warm and attentive to another group nearby, but with us, the service felt dismissive and disengaged. For example, my husband ordered an Aperol spritz, and when they were out, we substituted Campari--but what arrived resembled a raspberry sparkling water, not even close to what Campari tastes like. When we brought it up, the response felt very brushed off. It's disappointing because the setting and food have so much potential, but service matters. I'd recommend spending your money elsewhere in Poulsbo--there are plenty of great spots along the main strip that offer both good food and a better overall experience.
