The Wheelhouse & Crowsnest

What a treasure to find!
Lovely, warm and inviting restaurant with great food and service.
The Crowsnest Upstairs (no minors) is open at 4, with daily homemade bread. There is a cozy fireplace and great views up there.
I had a bowl of their tasty clam chowder and an appetizer portion of the breaded and fried oysters. The oysters were absolutely delicious! It was 6 huge oysters served hot from the pan. Had to let them cool a bit before biting into these tasty morsels. LOL
Would definitely eat there again if I am back in the area. 🇨🇦

We are frequent travelers domestically and have done cross country road trip twice. We’ve been to many coastal cities along and tried different seafood restaurants. This restaurant is our favorite so far!
At its price range, seafood was incredibly fresh and uniquely cooked with Southern touch. We ended up having dinner here two nights in a row during our 6day trip.
Highly recommend their local cranberry wine which is sweet and tart. Will definitely come back.

Seriously good food! They have a nice selection of beers and wines. The warm bread was great; especially the one with the cranberries. Two of us ordered the Citrus Grilled Halibut and it was cooked and seasoned perfectly! My daughter got the mashed potatoes as a side and said they were the best mashed potatoes she’s ever eaten. My wife ordered the Seafood Linguine and said it was delicious! They were busy, but the service was great and the food was awesome! There isn’t a lot of seating so, I recommend making a reservation in advance just to guarantee you get a table.

We had a pretty good sized group on a Saturday afternoon with a reservation. They did so well we came back the next afternoon with a slightly smaller group for another meal. With our group outings we are looking for great service that is fairly quick and quality food. The manager and her staff did a wonderful job, and everyone enjoyed their meals in our party.

A great view, great food and great service. The Chowder and Halibut Fish and Chips were delicious! Fish was flaky with the right amount of breading. The Chowder was creamy and I was tempted to order a second helping. They also gave bread complimentary but one of the breads had cranberries in it, which was a nice surprise and delight. Ask for Madison, she was an amazing server!

Good seafood restaurant.
Salmon was done better than average seafood restaurant.
Pasta, clam chowder, and vegetables were ok.
Service was amazing, the girl with a braid was one of the best servers ever.
Came in couple more times on our vacation and tried Rock Shrimp Linguine and Seafood Linguine, one served at lunch and the other at dinner, both are very good and amazing, full of shrimp/seafood, Loved it!

Stopped in for Linner 😅Did not realize it was before opening. Nice waitress explained it was 15 mins to open we could wait if we wanted and enjoy the view, ( Boy it’s pretty good). She brought us refreshing citrus water with the drink and food menus while busily getting things ready. At 4 promptly she came up and asked us if we would like to hear the drink menu. 1st cocktail was a home made margarita with fresh citrus rather than a mix. YUM!!! Done sold please make more! While getting our drinks ready she brought us 2 types of warm sourdough careful this bread is fresh and addictive! We ended up purchasing a loaf to take home. We had decided on the Prawn, Rockfish, scallops, oyster plater with fish sourced locally. Every bite was finger licking good! Food was excellent, drinks superb, restaurant clean, view is great.

On a personal note the waitress could have just mailed it in on a slower Monday, instead she treated us and the other table like royalty , great service that went beyond normal. Thank you!

The best fish n chips I've ever had!

Old timey feel with very good food, large portions and great wine. Chardonnay Sonoma Cutrer was fantastic and can be bought by the glass. They get busy fast so make reservations.

We happened upon this restaurant after checking into our hotel while on vacation. SO glad because we chose well! Our food was delicious, wait staff pleasant, and portions were very large. Highly recommend.

Stopped in for lunch while checking out Bandon and had a great lunch. Linguine with mushrooms and alfredo sauce and a side salad for $15. Small friendly restaurant with an upstairs bar/grill and friendly chef.

This restaurant was busy on the Saturday night in August when we visited but were able to seat our party of 5 without a reservation. Wonderful views across to the water and a homey ambience in the restaurant. The staff were friendly and helpful, and service was reasonably fast. We had a variety of dishes between us including steak, seafood, spinach pie, kid's meal fish'n'chips and fish tacos. The steak was cooked just right for the medium-rare requested and all the food was really tasty. We were all really happy with the delicious, fresh food. I would recommend a visit to anyone staying in the Bandon area.

We were able to be seated immediately with a view of the water. Waite staff was attentive. Food came relatively quick. The food was excellent.. The atmosphere was nautical and relaxing.

A fantastic surprise. The environment was comfortable but classy, the food was spectacular with a sprinkle of amazing. The staff made you feel warmly welcomed and that you were a valued guest.
Its a gem of the Southern Oregon Coast.

Having traveled by Harley from Florida to sample the West Coast seafood scene, this stop was a smart decision.

Ignore the low & negative reviews! What a beautiful view! The owner Sue and daughter Suky were so kind! Clam Chowder was delicious..and oh their homemade bread! Want to mention their homemade dressing for the salad...delicious! Must try.
Well done here...☆☆☆☆☆

This is our go-to food spot during our golf trip to Bandon. We we’re looking for seafood that is not fried and they have that. We went here a couple of times, lunch and dinner - obviously it is that gooood!

Yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy everything!!! From the delicious, amazing clam chowder soup, fried calamari, to each of our awesome entrée we enjoyed and loved every bite.

I chose the Cioppino. Wow.... it exceeded my expectations! As a lady who's lived in Colorado over 22 years, I really miss fresh seafood. I was raised in Oregon and SE Alaska; I know about fresh seafood.

Food was very good, fast friendly service even though the were quite busy. Just the right amount of food, had to take our dessert home. In all very pleasant and will be going back soon.
