Loved the food last time we were here. This time the Oysters were bland, only 1out if 12 was sweet, food came out as it was prepared, had fries, Salad, delivered 15 minutes before the Oysters. Restaurant requests you buss your own table, yet staff...stands around socializing while the patrons work. Need to rework processes.More

We both had oyster stew which was lacking in oyster pieces. My stew had a piece of what we found out was part of the scrubber in it. We gave it to worker behind the counter to find out what it was. Result: they did...absolutely nothing about it. Very disappointed!More

Fresh oysters, wonderful beers on draught and lot of other succulent items. Only negative is a sign on each table asking that you bus yourself. This is not an inexpensive restaurant and that’s detracts from the experience

My husband and I went for lunch with some friends who was 75 today. We ordered the Seafood Fri Basket for over $16.00. I ordered the 1/2 Basket for over $10.00. My Husband was supposed to get a combination of oysters, cod and shrimp and...fries. He only got 2 shrimp and 2 cod that were 3/4”X 1 & 1/2 “. Very small, probably 1/2 “ high. Very dry, & no oysters. When we complained the server said he would bring more cod because they were terribly small. He brought us a basket for 3 of us that had maybe 6 pieces of the sm cod again. We complained again. He did bring 2 ea of oysters. They did give us 2 free glasses of wine. We spoke with one of the owners as we were leaving and told him how bad our meal was, he said he had eaten the fish ( which turned out not to be cod as they advertised) and they were very good. We told him we were locals and our lunch was very poor. He never offered to give us a gift certificate for another lunch. The Lady sitting next to us got her cod when we were leaving and said WHAT IS THIS! Said it was so dry and small. We will not be going back.More

During our month long stay in the Blaine area , this is the only restaurant we ate at more than once. We enjoyed dining here 4 times! We've enjoyed oysters, and seafood across the country, but none done any better than here. It is a...brewery as well. We liked the amber. You place your order at the bar and grab your serviceware, condiments and go outside to find a seat. The oysters are sweet and delicious. You would be remiss in not ordering prawns as well. Either the kabobs or a basket with fried fish or prawns. The ONLY downside is the quirky hours. They are not open every dayand when they are open it only from 4 pm to 7 or 8 pm. Advice. Go early and order often.More

We came here an hour before closing time, and the first recommendation is not to do that. Their food is fresh, and when it sells out, that's it for the day. You order at the counter, and then take a seat. It's hard to choose...with all of their options. We sat in a bubble outside so that we could be warm but still have the great views of the harbor. We had shrimp grilled skewers as well as fish and chips. The food was great, and the staff were very helpful. We will definitely come back.More

This little restaurant serves oysters on the half-shell, grilled (with 4 different toppings) or deep fried. They also serve seafood (cod, shrimp or oyster) tacos or po-boys. The seafood is fresh and nicely cooked. The oysters and chips were very good and there was a...big piece of cod in the taco. There is an extensive selection of draft beer. There are only a few tables inside. There is seating in the plaza overlooking the marina under a tent.More

Ate outdoors on a warm summer day---very scenic and comfortable. The fish tacos and oysters were as fresh as I've ever had. Good selection of beer. The establishment is taking pandemic precautions seriously. They are also well-known locally for their contributions to the community and...to the health of the local fisheries and tidelands.More

A wonderful addition to the Blaine dining scene. Oysters how you like them. The shrimp and cod tacos were so good we ordered seconds. Outdoor seating on the patio under a large tent. Very busy so be prepared to wait.

Spent a couple hours here over the weekend enjoying the beautiful weather, sitting outside on their patio by the water. We had a few drinks and snacked on some savory shrimp kebabs. Nice views. Located on the main street of downtown Blaine, so a nice...location to walk around. I would definitely go back to this relaxing little gem.More

Oysters Baked!!!! Fabulous!!!! The Oysters on half shell baked were awesome!!! I also got the fried platter which was not nearly as Fabulous as the baked Ousters!!! The fried items seemed to be over breaded which made the Oysters baked even more spectacular!!!!

Such an awesome lunch spot. We had the best grilled oysters to date. Would come back for lunch again. Great outdoor seating options. They had a great beer and wine list that pairs perfectly with the oysters. We had a mixed grilled dozen. It was...fun and delicious. The only caution I give is chew carefully. I didn’t see a piece of shell that was left behind during shucking and it cracked my tooth.More

After driving solo for 2 days from Phoenix trying to make it home to Vancouver, I was stopped at the border because I had the wrong covid test. So I found the right one, got tested, and checked into a motel in Blaine to await...the results the next day. Being 55 mins from home, but unable to get there, I was pretty devastated and tired. I wandered Blaine for somewhere for a glass of wine and a bowl of soup to just chill a little. But I had my dog with me, so options were nil. Then I found Drayton's. I went to the door and didn't realize it had been closed for a family function and they were all just leaving. I asked where I might go with a dog (I had mentioned I had tried all the spots in the vicinity). But there really were no options. What followed was so kind. The owners said, "Hey, the kitchen is closed, but why don't we pour you a glass of wine, you can sit on the patio. Just leave the empty glass in the bin over there." So sweet and kind! When I tried to pay for it, they refused. And the lovely woman went and got some of their epic bread to go with the wine. Honestly, this was such a gift for a weary traveler in this strange time. I was exhausted and they were my angels. I just wanted to say thank you so very much. It was truly appreciated and I will come visit your restaurant every time I'm in Blaine in the future! Much love, Lori Big licks and wags, TessaMore

The fish tacos are great, they oysters are so good, the only negative thing I have to say is the oyster stew, which I love, has been hit and miss. Sometimes it's curdle looking, other times oysters are missing. I had one great bowl that...was perfect. I keep going back though.More

The daily oyster specials were on a blackboard when we got there. We just had oysters and wine so not sure of the other items.
