Don't let appearances fool you, Barnacle Bills is the place to get the freshest local fish available, when our extended family are staying in Lincoln City this is where I go to get my ingredients to cook for 9 people and indulge our seafood tastes. The smoked salmon is something I crave and is one of the first things I... More

Barnacle Bill's is a fish market that carries local seafood. Also smoked fish. It looks dumpy from the outside, but is obviously well-managed. The clerks (wait help?!?) were EAGER to help and give advice. They will cut fish into whatever sizes/weights you want. We hit the beginning of the salmon season and it was the best looking salmon I have... More

Stopped here while staying in Lincoln City on vacation. As a walk-up, seafood market this isn't really a restaurant, so have someplace else to go and eat/prepare your delicious seafood. We had the smoked salmon, which was among the best we've ever tasted. Although ~$20/lb, you'll be enjoying a real taste treat. The "moist" cuts are the best (mainly the... More

This place has been around for years. Always has fresh and good selection of local seafood. It's right on Hwy 101 so you can't miss it.

I enjoy stopping here since I do not have access to fresh seafood where I live, and it has never disappointed. What a difference to have fresh seafood and not frozen! This last time I bought shrimp, crab, and smoked salmon, and it was all fresh and delicious. I also recommend his jarred cocktail sauce, which he tells me is... More

The best smoked salmon you may be able to buy anywhere. Have been going here for years and always a premium. Also, give the pickled prawns a taste, your taste buds will thank you.

A group of friends stay in Lincoln City every January. We always have a crab feed on Saturday night. We usually get our crab from Safeway. This year, the price there was too high, so as we were deciding what to do, we drove by Barnacle Bill's. We stopped, overcoming our hesitations at buying food from a roadside "shack". But,... More

Love the crab & shrimp cocktails (ask for extra crackers, tho - one pack isn't enough for me!). My husband and I have stopped by here for years & wouldn't miss it on a trip to the coast. Their smoked salmon is awesome and we never fail to buy some. Sure, the salmon is a bit pricey, but aren't the... More

I'm not much of a seafood fan, but I have to admit that I cannot drive past Barnacle Bill's without stopping and getting a shrimp cocktail. Freshest bay shrimp you'll find anywhere and hands down the best cocktail sauce to boot! It's the perfect sized serving for a quick snack in mid-afternoon. There crabs are yummy too, as are the...
