Madrona Bar & Grill, located in the heart of Roche Harbor, is perfect for a leisurely lunch. The restaurant deck overlooks the stunning harbor filled with sailboats. When I ate at Madrona it rained a little bit, but large umbrellas covered the table and it was actually nice to enjoy a hot meal in the brisk weather. The crispy calamari with wasabi aioli, local manila clams, slow roasted wagyu beef sliders, Northwest clam chowder, hand-battered fish and chips, and the catch of the day street-side tacos were all so delicious and incredibly filling. It wasn’t until I was putting this post together when I realized how much we had actually ordered! Everything on the menu looked too good to pass up. If you are ever visiting San Juan Island, don’t miss out on a delicious lunch here!
