Hello -
I am planning a ferry ride to Bainbridge Island during my upcoming trip to Seattle. I am now thinking that I may take the ferry ride around dinnertime and just have a nice dinner on Bainbridge Island. Can anyone recommend a restaurant, trying to stick to no more than $50 for one person? I'm pretty open to all kinds of food but am not a big meat or steak eater.
Thanks,

Hi there - I live on Bainbridge and it is a great spot to visit. We've had some beautiful weather lately and a ferry ride over is a great way to take in some of our amazing scenery.
Several good spots to eat on the island.
Cafe Nola - has outdoor dining and a great menu - food is consistently good. Right in the heart of town.
San Carlos - really good, exotic Mexican and fabulous margaritas.
Doc's Marina Grill - wonderful outdoor seating area where you can view the marina. My favorite item there is a fabulous cheeseburger - but you can find some good fish and pasta that should suit your taste.
Four Swallows - a bit upscale - in an old house in the heart of town - really wonderful food - fabulous wines - great service.
"The Pub" - also the Harbor Public House - no kids - great outdoor deck - wonderful cocktails / beers / wine and a good menu with several organic and healthy options.
We have a wonderful ice cream shop on the island - Mora - which features several seasonal / interesting flavors (Lavender / Green Tea, etc.) - fun to eat an ice cream and walk around town taking in the great shops and galleries.
Enjoy your visit and please let me know if any more questions.
These all sound great. Courtneycwo, do you think Bainbridge would be fun for 12- and 13-year-old girls?
Thanks courtney, this list is wonderful.
Where is the ice cream shop? Is it close to where the ferry drops you off?
Hello! Mora Ice Cream is located in the heart of town (Winslow). When you walk up the hill from the boat, you'll want to walk down Winslow Way - which is where all of the action is
Mora is tucked down a side street - once you've hit the Blackbird Bakery (Winslow Way), take a right and you'll run into it.
12 - 13 year old girls - if they like to shop - lots to see and do. Sweet Deals is a great shop in in Winslow - really great prices - fun accessories - very young and cute. Also - Kate and Kennedy - Blinx - Zia. For high end stuff (Prada / Chanel, etc.) there is the Adam and Eve boutique. If they like to make jewelry there is the Bead Garden which is a lot of fun. Bath Junkie - they can make their own soaps, shampoos. Wildernest if they are outdoorsy.
I think that it is fun to wander through - check out the galleries - grab an ice cream or a coffee - walk through the marina and waterfront park.
I hope that you have a ball!
Thanks Courtney,
They are not high-end kids but would probably like the jewelry or soap making--that's pretty cool! We wpuld be going next spring if it works out.
