Fish counter
Best overall: fish and chips, poke, chowder and the best fish counter in town, under one roof.
Sebastian’s is the one place in Bend that does all of it: a family-owned seafood market with a full-service fish case, a café cooking fish and chips and tacos to order, and poke made fresh every day. It sits inside The Grove market hall, so you can take your plate to a table, grab a beer at Waypoint (Bend Brewing’s taproom in the same hall) and finish with a scoop at Elly’s.

Fish and chips, beer-battered cod ($22) or halibut ($25) with fries, slaw and tartar

Seafood with a Deschutes River view, and the cheapest fish and chips on this list at happy hour.

What to order
Build your own: small with two proteins $17, large with three $19 (yellowfin tuna, salmon, spicy tuna, shrimp, chicken or tofu)
Signature bowls, $21: the NWX (tuna, shrimp, salmon, mango) or the Summit (spicy tuna, jalapeño)

Bend has no dockside fishmonger, but it has two good fish counters. Sebastian’s (above) has the biggest case in town. Here’s the other.
Grocery seafood counter, west side
Newport Avenue Market
A full fish counter with fishmongers who will tell you how to cook it.
Bend’s employee-owned grocery runs a staffed seafood counter. In season its site promises line-caught fish that has never been frozen (it names salmon, tuna, opah, halibut and swordfish), plus Dungeness crab and Pacific Northwest oysters year-round. It will special-order what isn’t in the case, and there’s a sushi counter in the store too.
Tip: Call ahead for anything specific (halibut, king crab, a dozen oysters for a party). Sebastian’s asks you to call for the day’s selection, and Newport will special-order.
Start with Sebastian’s, Poke Row or Aina. This is the easiest seafood category for lunch and takeout.
Chowder and comfort food
Sebastian’s house clam chowder ($6 cup), Mother Shuckers’ smoked steelhead chowder ($12 bowl) or Hook & Plow’s seafood chowder ($7 at happy hour).
Fish tacos
Mother Shuckers’ blackened steelhead tacos, Sebastian’s grilled mahi mahi tacos, or a $6 fish taco at Hook & Plow’s happy hour.
Sushi
Go deeper with our separate Bend sushi guide. Sushi deserves its own list instead of getting buried inside a general seafood page. For sushi-grade fish to take home, Sebastian’s sells tuna, salmon and yellowtail.
A nicer dinner
The Hudson for oysters, caviar and scallops downtown; Anthony’s when you want the river view to matter as much as the fish.
Food-cart seafood
Bend’s food-cart lots are useful when your group wants different things. One person can get oysters at Mother Shuckers (The Podski) or poke at Aina (On Tap) while everyone else picks their own cart.
