Waterfront dining in Washington is amazing approximately 365 days a year, but there truly is something special about enjoying a delicious meal and a cold beverage on a seaside patio on a summer day. If your warm weather plans include a trip to Bainbridge Island, make sure to pay a visit to Doc’s Marina Grill. Not only does the restaurant sit right on Eagle Harbor, but the food happens to be fantastic.

Doc's Marina Grill is just a short walk (or shorter drive) from the Bainbridge Island ferry.

Once known as the Yodeling Oyster, this eatery has changed names a few times since its beginnings. For many years, it was Mac's, a neighborhood bar with a bell patrons could ring when they wanted to buy everyone a round.
These days, it's a family-friendly eatery that stays perpetually packed in the summertime.

And while the wait for a table on a warm weekend day can be lengthy, the attentive team will work to get you seated as quickly as possible.
The patio seating is first-come, first-served, but it's well worth the wait.
