anyone else make that mistake? I read the reviews and a few of them said the chowder was better at both Georgies and the Shilo. I would agree but trust me, thats not saying much. I don't know why the tourists in Newport have this infatuation with clam chowder. i say don't be or else you will be disappointed more

I would go here again but only if I was right there and hungry. My husband and I have been here a few times. The chowder at the Shiloh Cafe is better. The tea here is awful. The service is fair at best but I don't think that's the fault of the waitresses I think they are just too busy... more

I'm feeling defensive about the Chowder Bowl, as I've been going there for about 10 years. It's not Michelin 3-star, but it's perfect for a weekend on the central Oregon Coast. Love the chowder, love the people. Happy to wait an extra five minutes when it's busy, happy to have a Dead guy Ale while waiting for the chowder/calamari/mahi/oysters/prawns to... more

We went there for the 1st time. I had the clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl. Service was good. Sourdough bread bowl was good. Clam chowder was good. I had had clam chowder at Georgies the night before and that chowder was extraordinarily excellent. There are others in Oregon who have better clam chowder -- to name a couple... more

We've routinely included the Chowder Bowl in our rotation of restaurants on our frequent visits to the coast over the years. The clam chowder is always very good. We've taken the soup base home as well to make chowder and it always turns out good. We absolutely love their french fries. The burgers are decent, fish and chips have been... more

Good location, nice folks. Chowder is their thing, and it's very good, as are the fish&chips. Don't deviate into other entrees - I made that mistake and ended up wishing I had ordered the chowder (like my husband) or the fish&chips (like my daughter) which really were delicious. more

Locally owned since 1980 the Chowder Bowl at Nye Beach is simply one of the best restaurants around. The service was 5 star. Friendly, attentive servers with personality, excellent food and outdoor seating. I chose the Mandarin Chicken Salad and it was perfect. It was served in a fancy bowl with fresh greens, no shortage on the chicken or crunchy... more

I rated this a 3 in most areas, because compared to all other restaurants it is middle of the road, however we do go on a regular basis because we know what to expect. I do not expect a 4 or 5 star dining experience- this is fish and chips and I prefer English style fish and chips and this... more
