Delicious spot for lunch on the way to the ferry...excellent salad and homemade soup. Quick and friendly service and great cookies too! Will definitely make a point to come back next time we're in town.

Loved the service... very cool atmosphere with super healthy choices on the menu (grass fed!) We disliked that we were charged $4 for refills on pop. Otherwise, our meal was fantastic.

I ordered scrambled eggs which when served were not scrambled, but rather "flat and solid egg "pancake". I did complain, the server took it back where it was just "cut" into strips and served again. I asked... More

We had a very good dinner of fresh oysters (the sauce was spicy lethal however), the kale salad (again a little hot stuff in the dressing), and excellent cioppino. All split well. Waitress was a little surly but the place was packed on a Wednesday night so we must not be alone in thinking that this was one of the... More

Using the best local organic ingredients accompanied by good beers and wines, this newly-updated casual restaurant consistently serves healthful satisfying food. (Many gluten-free choices on the menu.) On the way to the San Juan Islands ferry, while visiting the tulip fields, or for locals looking for good food, try the popular Adrift on lower Commercial in downtown Anacortes. Choose a... More

One of our FAVORITE restaurants! My son is a waiter in a restaurant in Boulder CO and loves great food and unique restaurant experiences. We all loved ADRIFT! The food is great and elegantly prepared. The atmosphere is rustic and creative. We Loved it and have recommended to all of our friends.

My friend and I just picked a random restaurant near our hotel, which happened to be the Adrift. Wow. Wow. Wow. What a surprise. We are both from Seattle and I have to say...this restaurant puts many Seattle restaurants to shame. GREAT food. Highly recommended. (Oysters were the BEST).
