Come here if you’re looking for quality coffee and souvenirs. Food was not good and overly priced, paid $15 for item pictured. My mother’s biscuits and gravy were cold. Cashier was kind, but kept messing up our simple order. The building was cool and comfortable, although seating was limited.

What a surprise. This place is exceptional good among many overpriced restaurants here in Seward serving bland boring food. The miso fish was very good, soft, moist and flaky over gourmet rice. The seafood chowder was excellent. My wife’s Island burger was also very good. We have a special chef dessert and it was quite esquisite. Highly recommended

Very unique and beautiful views. The food was really good and so was the coffee. The waitress was super polite and professional. The music was amazing also.

Creative space and delicious food – Seward gem! Visited for dinner and again the next morning for breakfast. Tried sablefish with black rice and sauteed veggies. Tasty smoked salmon. Great seafood chowder. Came back for the breakfast burrito and friendly people. Nice mix of locals and visitors.

I’m particularly fond of their gift shop. Lots of very good quality “under the sea” items for sale. I never fail to find a perfect little gift or decorating item. The restaurant portion of the building serves what I would call California fare, which I am not partial to, so I cannot give an honest review of the food. It has extraordinary uncomfortable chairs, so dining in is not my favorite thing to do here. The patio is lovely, though, so on a nice day, just take your food outside.

You need to add this to your list of places to go. Gorgeous decor, beautiful water and ship views, the food was delicious. Staff was so friendly. If I lived here, this would be my spot.

Great inside, grand view of the harbor, gracious patio out back, and Trevor! Island burger with grilled pineapple and a glass of Sixth Sense Syrah, what a delicious way to spend an afternoon in Seward.
