The Best Fish and Chips on the Oregon Coast | Eater Portland
"With many excellent options in Astoria — including downtown’s South Bay Wild Fish House and Ship Out across Old Youngs Bay Bridge — the beloved Bowpicker Fish & Chips often takes top billing. This 28-foot converted wooden boat once gillnetted for salmon on the Columbia, but now delivers a different catch of the day: lightly beer-battered chunks of juicy albacore, served with fries and tartar sauce. Be patient with lines and enjoy your 3-piece half or 5-piece full at a picnic table with a view of the river. Bad weather closes up shop, since the boat is an open kitchen concept — so open, in fact, that rain can pour into the galley." - Emily Teel
