Blue Moose Cafe

Easily the best breakfast spot I’ve ever been to! The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I had the salmon omelet and it was incredible—perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and light but filling at the same time. The portions are generous, the coffee is strong and smooth, and every plate that came out of the kitchen looked just as tempting. The atmosphere makes it even better. Cozy, welcoming, and buzzing with good energy, it’s the kind of place that makes you want to linger a little longer. The staff is friendly, quick, and always makes you feel at home. If you’re looking for a breakfast experience that leaves you smiling the rest of the day, this is it.

The French toast was by far the best I’ve ever had/ I’ve traveled significantly and I’m telling you, you’ll be foaming at the mouth! The homemade pecan butter was delish. I didn’t even use much syrup.. my honey had a scooter and he said it was top notch! Great little hike in the wall place by the marina!! Loved it

Visiting from Seattle and was happy to find such a gem of a place. As an interracial couple in a small town we always judge a places “welcoming” vibes by how we’re welcomed when we walk in. We felt IMMEDIATELY comfortable by the greeting and some of the other customers eating even said hello. This is clearly a “regulars” type of place but with a warm cozy and welcoming vibe. The food was good and the service was even better. We ordered one item from the regular menu and one from the Fall menu as well, they both were delish. Thanks for making our morning awesome.

Went during the Wooden Boat Festival, so this place was slammed. You have to line up with the people paying to get a buzzy pager for your seat...don't barge in. Wait was about 30 min...but it was WORTH IT. I don't drink coffee, but my dining partner does and couldn't stop raving about it. I DO eat corned beef hash though, and this is me raving about that. Easily in my top 3 plates of hash for 2025...I will make it a point to go back, though maybe not during a big local event! Extra props to the staff for handling the ridiculous line so gracefully and for producing so much delicious grub!

We came here for breakfast during what must have been one of their busiest times—Labor Day weekend, around 9 a.m. on Sunday. Even so, the food was delicious, the service remained attentive, and the atmosphere was wonderfully cozy. Highly recommended!

My husband had the Basic Breakfast and I had the Veggie hash with two eggs over easy, basically a deconstructed veggie omelette. It was excellent! Fresh veggies were cooked just right, still with some texture and crunch. Eggs were perfect consistency. Their homemade wheat toast reminded us of the Bergen bread we made at a recent baking class in Vermont. Seeds galore! And there was a touch of tart reminiscent of sourdough.

Great little breakfast location at Port Townsend. Fantastic menu. Great service.

We recently had the pleasure of dining at the Blue Moose Cafe, and it was an awesome experience. The service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and efficient. The food was absolutely delicious, with flavors that exceeded our expectations. In my opinion you cannot go wrong with their eggs benedict. Although there was a short wait to be seated, it was well worth it as the overall dining experience more than made up for it. I highly recommend the Blue Moose Cafe to anyone looking for excellent food and exceptional service.

Amazing food and great prices. This was my first time visiting Port Townsend and I came here based on the great reviews. I ordered pancakes, bacon and sausage and they were cooked to perfection. The pancakes were so light and fluffy and dusted with powdered sugar while the sausage was nice and juicy. My friend had the sauerkraut hash which was very flavorful as well. I love how big the portions are. It's tiny so it feels up quick so try to get there as early as possible to reserve a seat. By the way, they have mimosas!

Wonderful service and the food was fantastic! The restaurant felt very homey and warm. We will be back again!

If you are looking for a Dennys or IHOP experience then this place isn't for you. We stumbled on this place while driving in Port Townsend and discovered a gem. It's located in the middle of a marina related commercial area. The menu is breakfast oriented and absolutely delicious, generous portions, mostly made from scratch and a great value for the price. The staff is engaging and treat you like they've known you forever. The only down side is it's crowded and there is a bit of a wait to get seated. While waiting you can sit outside with a cup of delicious coffee and relax and read the menu. Tl;dr very good food, great atmosphere worth the wait.

Loved this cute spot. Service was excellent, enjoyed the quaint decor. My Huevos rancheros were so tasty! I'm visiting for a week or two, definitely stoping by before I depart!

The food was amazing. I ordered the hash and biscuits & gravy combo. Excellent. The mimosa was wonderful. The staff could not have been nicer. Great service. All around excellent. It's not fancy but it's great.

I'd give 6 stars if I could! Hard to go to any other breakfast spot when we're in port Angeles. They have fun options, the Ode to Ina lives rent free in my head and heart. Maritime diner feels with bomb vegetarian options too. The sweetest service, your liberal auntie runs this place. There was a small wait so we sat at the counter and ate warmed sour cream cardamom coffee cake with some good ol drip, and then got seated and ugh just truly immaculate food and vibes, eat here.

We stopped by on a Sunday morning. Food was good, service was friendly! They had us seated within 20mins, the place was busy but everyone seemed happy and enjoying their food. Menu variety was great for everyone. We were super happy with our food choice and loved that they had locally roasted coffee beans. We sat outside with our Pup and had no issues. Highly recommend!

Sure it's in a marina. And maybe parking is hit and miss. And maybe you'll like the kitsch in the marina or inside the restaurant. And then the food. Very good and creative. Our table had three things that were well worth having again. The smoked salmon scramble, the smoked salmon omlette, and Ina which is a polenta with black beans and corn topped with a fried egg and a nut based patty that was very enjoyable. The coffee *with* some cream was also good (I'm somewhat of a coffee snob). The folks here are incredibly attentive and welcoming with their service. We have been here a number of times before and make it a required stop in Port Townsend.

The food was delicious! Best breakfast I've had in the area and we travel here every year. Staff was attentive, friendly and cute. Coffee is great, from the nearby Sunshine Co. Bacon! OMG Popular place , so parking is not easy to find, but it is SO worth it! Looking forward to our next PT trip to return to the Blue Moose!!!

I'm pretty much a regular at the Moose so I don't know why I haven't written a review before today! I have NEVER had anything but a terrific meal here. I used to go with scooters and the South of the Border eggs with jalapeños but a couple of years ago I tried the Corned Beef hash and have never gone back. There are serious chunks of corned beef in the hash and they are thrown on the flattop with the potatoes and onions so there's a nice crisp on most of the pieces. The seasoning on the beef is terrific and potatoes are melt-in-your mouth! We get the hash with three over easy eggs and they are exactly that way. Not overcooked. Service is prompt and the staff is friendly. I'm still amazed that so many meals come out of that tiny kitchen. Yes on weekends you'd better expect a line. But if the weather's nice and it's Uber busy, we order ours to go and pop over to the beach and sit on a log to eat. It's perfect!

Substantial quantities of great diner food served by friendly waitresses. We went there two days in a row!

Such good diner food. Massive corn beef hash - crispy and tender at the same time. Home fries were cooked and seasoned well. Fluffiest of fluffy pancakes. would recommend.

We had a wait for a table but were the only ones. Got seated after 10 min. But no one came to e our order after 10 minutes decided to leave. The table that came after us already had their order taken and beverages served.

The breakfast burritos! Might just be the best one I've had. Got a regular one adding avocado and bacon. Love the vibe of this spot.

A great place for breakfast, super friendly service and great food make this a gem. Do come hungry, the portions are generous and the menu has lots of great options. The wait was only a few minutes and coffee while we waited was great. We started with the Cardamom coffee cake and then had the "This Ain't no Atkins Special" Breakfast and the Green Eggs and Ham. Both were great and healthy portions. I added an over easy egg to the hash/biscuit combo, I would recommend this for sure.

While the seating area is a little smaller and the parking is pretty full - it is definitely worth the stop. We were seated immediately and got our food pretty quickly too. It has a very cute small-town diner feel and the food was amazing - expect to leave with a very full stomach. Portions were awesome and not for a bad price!

The Blue Moose is a funky little place down in the industrial marine area. Parking can be a bit of a challenge. The area is quite small, I didn't count the tables, but there's probably about 10 2-tops and 4-tops combined. Their kitchen is super tiny, about the size of a large walk-in closet, so your meal may take a while if they are at capacity. That said, the food is great! Most, if not all, of their dishes are made from scratch. The corned beef hash and biscuits are delicious. Everyone is friendly and helpful. They are very laid back and don't press you for time in an attempt to turn tables, but keep this in mind when it's busy, and please be considerate of other guests waiting to dine. A little courtesy and thoughtfulness feels good, especially these days.

The waitress was very friendly and efficient. The hash was excellent and there was way too much of it. We shared it and still took some back home. I recommend this as a breakfast spot.

Yeah, Blue Moose is in our regular rotation. Good regular food. Always busy, dependable place to meet with friends for breakfast. I usually get their corned beef hash, it's satisfying. Located in our working boatyard.

Yearly Girls trip and we always stop here for breakfast. Service is quick even if there's a line out the door. We always get it to go so then they give you a beeper and we take a walk about down towards water. Ordered Denver style omelet, south of the border scramble, and a vegetarian omelet. Tasty and filling. Worth a try if your in town!!

We were seated right away for breakfast on a Saturday morning. I got the Jennifer burrito and my hubby got the biscuits and gravy. We both enjoyed our meals and multiple cups of coffee. I also enjoyed the kitschy decor. We would definitely go again when we are back in the area.

Delicious food and coffee and great service make this little hidden gem shine! We loved it all.

What a delight! Order pretty much whatever you want. Staff is polite, friendly and professional. I had a scramble of 2 eggs, spinach, bacon and cheddar cheese. They didn't skimp of spinach like a lot of people do. Potatoes could use a little paprika or smoked paprika, a little bland but still very good! It wasn't busy, but they only do fresh so breakfast took about 10 minutes. I will definitely be back.

Food was great but the service was slow and the lady at the cash register was rude. My name is Alexa and one of their Amazon Alexa's went off and I noticed, turned around thinking someone was talking to me, and the lady at the counter acted like I was a crazy person. She looked at me judgingly and said, "Seems like you might need a little more of something..." implying maybe I needed meds or alcohol or something? I don't know what that meant but it made me feel really bad for getting confused. Not to mention it took forever for our food to come out. Won't be going back!

Food was very good. Servers were sweet. The place is clearly well loved because it was crowded. But it was fun. I loved it.

Definitely recommend! I just saw the food and I knew it was gonna be good. Food came out really hot which I was so greatful for The service is great too, they are very welcoming and kept checking up on us. The vibe is nice and calm but we came for breakfast.

A solid cafe for breakfast. The cafe is located in a ship/boat yard. Always busy and often there is a wait. We all a typical breakfast and that is perhaps why I can't remember specifically what my breakfast partners had. I had their homemade hash with two eggs and it was WONDERFUL! I would highly recommend it. Voted best breakfast at our table. Fun funky atmosphere. This is not your mother's 'Dennys'.

Food: Worth the money. Generous portions. Tasty. Lots of options - even for non-meat eaters. I had the corned beef hash - recommend sharing. It was a lot - a lot of delicousness. RECOMMEND: Start with some coffee and Homemade Pecan Cardamom Coffee Cake. It was SO GOOD!! Service: On point. Attentive. Friendly. Ambiance: It's small, quaint, homey. NOT a chain restaurant so it's quirky and charming. Parking: Be patient, you'll find a spot. I don't know if it's family owned but it sure gave off that vibe. Every person we interacted with were super friendly. Side note: When we were there, it seemed like one of their staff in the kitchen was sick so everyone was chipping in - so maybe they aren't a family but they're definitely a team.

What a wonderful spot for breakfast. Definitely a locals favorite. The vibe is laid back, friendly and cheerful. Small, but cozy and comfortable. The food was outstanding and the service was top notch. We had about 2 hours to kill before we caught a ferry across and asked the staff for recommendations. They were over the top helpful and kind. Really fun and kitschy wall art!

My husband and I were going to go for brunch, but the wait was long, so we ordered to go. The breakfast burrito was pretty good, as was the bacon. Unfortunately, the pancake we ordered, which is marketed as light and fluffy, was dense and rubbery. :(

This place is a must stop every time we visit PT! The food is amazing, and the staff are always friendly and attentive. Parking can be a challenge when it's busy and there can be a wait but trust me - it's worth it! We had our dog with us, and she was able to sit next to us at the table outside. The server was kind in pointing out the dog water bowl near the entrance to the outside area too. I look forward to our next trip!

Really nice staff work there. The food was great too! Fresh orange juice 100/100!!!!!!!!!

Brody & Logan were outstanding servers! Prompt, cheerful, considerate... everything that was lost in customer service after quarantine. The food was 100% perfect too!! We highly recommend having breakfast when visiting Port Townsand. We'll be having lunch here later. Thank you, Blue Moose!!

Incredible breakfast, I had the hash, best I've ever had. Super friendly atmosphere and incredible staff. I'll be back

Everything about this restaurant was awesome the food was even better when in town again we be back for sure

This place is a hidden gem. The pancakes are amazing. Recently I had the florentine eggs benedict and it was really good. Service is slow, but they have a small kitchen and make that very clear on the menu. It's port townsend, take it easy, no one's in a rush here! Overall I love coming here.

I love the fact they have healthy options. Got the veggie scramble with sweet potatoes which came with a delicious homemade biscuit.... Which I deserved because I ate my veggies. =)

Great food. Great portion sizes and good service. I definitely would come back. In industrial area but no problems parking. Kitschy place.

We stopped here for brunch on our way out of Port Townsend. It's located in a ship yard, which was unexpected when we rolled up. Parking may not be nearby but it's a big working yard so you can find parking, but it might be a bit of a walk. We were able to snag one of the picnic tables outside in front since we had our pup with us. We got French toast, a chorizo & avocado burrito and huevos rancheros. Everything came fairly quickly. The brioche bread for the French toast was soft and fluffy and thick. It was served with a healthy pat of butter, sprinkled with pecans and powdered sugar. A full order had 4 slices and I would say this should be more of a side order - cause I think I needed some something savory to go with it like eggs and bacon. Anyways I did get to try bites of the other dishes and they were both solid. Portion sizes were large too and we were able to take half the huevos and French toast, as leftovers. Service was really good and friendly. They do serve beer and something called a moosetail, which is like a fermented drink they make in house since they don't have a hard liquor license. I would highly recommend this place for breakfast.

I think we must have come during a busy time (around 9:30am on a Thursday), so it took a little longer than normal to get coffee and then get our food as well (maybe 35-40 min). But when the food came it was delicious! My bagel sandwich was YUM and the blueberry pancakes were massive. One is enough for two people easily. Coffee was decent, and the staff were nice and kept bringing fresh coffee around regularly which was great. The place itself feels very old-timey, lots of decorations on the walls, old porcelain plates, etc. Overall, a good spot in a beautiful location!

Food - 4 Service - 3 Value - 3 We came here the other day and what we thought would end up being maybe a 30 minute meal to start our adventures turned into a 90 minute ordeal. The food itself was pretty good but probably something we could have gotten at a number of other places (I got the Salmon Omelet and my wife got their Croissant French Toast special) -- and it's quite possible the long wait for the food resulted in us not feeling like the it was as good as others have posted on Yelp. We ended up waiting almost an hour for our food -- with no visit from the waiter to keep us updated at all. We finally asked them what was going on and they apologized because they had a surprise health inspection and had to stop everything in the kitchen while that was happening. They did comp our drinks to compensate us for the inconvenience which is why the Service rating is a 3 rather than a 2 -- however, I felt they should have done a little more than that.

The food is always good and consistent, very friendly, and Rhonda and staff are the best.

Fabulous breakfast! Located in the shipyard with interesting things to see. The staff are friendly and our order was perfect. We loved the fresh veggies in the eggs and the cilantro sauce on the omelette.

Two words for this place. Corn beef and gravy. It's in the middle of the shipyard so there is no view, but the friendly staff and the food smell make up for it. Huge menu for vegetarians and not. But the gravy! It's like clam chowder without clams. Sooo good.

Funky, fun, filling luckily they offer half portions on many items. Excellent scratch cooking love the corned beef hash, omelettes, French toast, biscuits & gravy all are solid choices. Don't miss the Moosetails and house bakery goods are very good. Service fast, friendly and fearless. Parking can be a challenge.

We had a wonderful early lunchtime breakfast here recently and it was so nice! This is a very popular breakfast and lunch cafe, and we were lucky to get a table cleared right away only because so many people were at the Rhody Festival parade! Just excellent ingredients well prepared, with generous portions and good service! Breakfast choices of eggs, bacon, sausages, and breakfast potatoes, plus some creative pancake and french toast entrees. Such a great atmosphere too!

Awesome local eatery in the marina, well worth the wait. Great coffee, fresh food. They were short a cook the day we arrived, so service was slow. The ambiance is quirky! By the way, the second hand chandlery next door is worth a look-see.

Service wasnt fast but the food was GREAT! We are going back again! Definitely going back again

Really cute breakfast spot with incredibly delicious food! Busy, bustling and still great service! Worth the wait!
