History
Established in 2003.
We are understandably very proud of our «New England» Clam Chowder,
but our other chowders are equally outstanding. Next in line in
popularity is our Seafood Bisque. This chowder is made from fresh local
salmon, cod, crab and bay shrimp prepared in our tomato, basil, cream broth. Our Smoked Salmon Chowder is also very popular and prepared with capers and cream cheese. For those wanting a chowder a little lighter in calories we offer two chowders prepared without any milk or cream. Our Manhattan Clam Chowder is made with chopped Ocean Clams in a tomato, onion and celery broth and our Crab and Shrimp Clear Chowder made with shellfish stock, corn and assorted vegetables. We also offer a non-seafood chowder our Southwestern Chicken and Corn Chowder and Vegan Chowder served in coconut milk and lime juice.
Two recent additions to our menu are our Cascadia Harvest Chowder and Crab & Oyster w/Chorizo made with all local ingredients fresh out of Pike Place Market.
