I've been stopping here for years. Still great friendly service and fantastic fish and chips!

Food is super fresh and great. On the pricier side though for the atmosphere. Got the food quickly.

Absolute gem! AMAZING FISH AND CHIPS! Our go-to spot in the area. Staff always friendly, tables kept clean, affordable and OUTSTANDING quality. The fish was fresh, delicious, plenty of portions and fries crisp and hot! Lemon slice and fresh tartar sauce! Cant wait to come back and try everything else! You will not be disappointed!

One of the best salmon burgers I ever tried. Tasty, original and served fast. Interior is rustic and cozy. Great place to stop, if you're driving north.

My husband and I stopped by the Boat House in Bodega Bay, when we first moved to the area. We have been going there ever since. I don't know why I waited to write a review but I'm glad I did wait because- the food and service has been consistent.
It's a small family business, casual, and cozy. The service is great.
The fish and chips are great.
It is one of our favorite place to get Fish, Prawns & Chips. Pretty big portions, huge prawns. Not greasy. They offer a taste sensation we never get tired of. Delicious!
They have limited indoor and outdoor seating.
The parking lot is small but we have always found a spot to park.
While there, you can arrange Private Boat Charters and Fishing Excursions.
Check it out, you'll be glad you did.

Great service and yummy food, 13 of us for lunch! Food was great and they got our lunches out in a very timely manor.

Great little shack. Stoped on the way back to Petaluma. The clam chowder and fish & chips were great in a cold summer night.
Will definitely be back next time I'm in town.

Boat House gets a raving review from my parents so had to try it out for ourselves! We ordered at the counter and were a little overwhelmed by wanting to try all of the options but decided to do an order of Fish and Chips and an assortment of Fried Calamari, Fried Oysters, Clam Strips, Fried scallops and Fried Prawns. The things we loved really knocked it out of the park. This included the fried fish, the prawns and the scallops. The seafood was delicious and the breading was some of the crispiest I have ever had! I also really enjoyed the clam strips but they weren't nearly as crispy. We tried the oysters to be adventurous but hot oysters weren't our favorite although they did have that same amazing crunch. The calamari I could probably do without on my next trip, it just wasn't on the same level as the other items and I've had much better elsewhere. Service was good but we really enjoyed the seating outside. Also took clam chowder to go, really looking forward to trying it in a bread bowl on our next visit.
