A diner from Lacey, WA Aug 26, 2009
Lovely sunset dinner of a small crab louie, clam chowder and sourdough roll. Nice to have smaller options on serving size. Good value for the money. Dessert tray presentation was very nice. Pleasant service. Nice view of the water and boats.

A diner from Olympia, WA Sep 21, 2007
Everything was nice about this restaurant, except the food! I had seen a review on a different web site that raved about the clam chowder. Since that is one of my favorites I ordered a bowl of clam chowder and a Caesar Salad. The clam chowder was awful ... mostly flower paste and no taste. I don't think I found a single clam. The Caesar Salad was very dry (like one of those ready salad bags from Safeway) with a few croutons and Parmesan cheese. I won't be back. Try Anthony's or the Oyster House for good seafood.

Just visiting olympia, tried this place out today and it was pretty good.. Their service was excellent. Would definately recommend to anyone passing through.
A diner from Washington Oct 8, 2001
I just recently dined at the Budd Bay Cafe for the first time. I've lived in Olympia a long time but always heard that it wasn't very good. Recently however, I heard that it was changing due to new ownership, so I gave it a shot. It was great. The food was excellent as well as the service. I would definately recommend Budd Bay. I know I will be going back.

    Definitely worth a trip. The front isn't inviting but the food is worth another trip from Chehalis.Chicken Cordon Bleu was excellent, the oysters tasted like they just were shucked straight from the ocean.
