I grew up in food from the Fishermans on the pier in San Clemente. Always amazing So.i figured it was a safe place to choose on a little trip to Seattle. The crab dip was amazing... every thing else not so mych. I ordered the special crab and shrimp Primavera couldn't eat it had to send it back.. just got a chicken sandwich instead. It was dry and grizzly.my daughter also go the chicken sandwich ...

A great place to grab a sandwich and drink, and then walk around the docks, especially on the weekdays when the fisherman are actively working, just be sure to give them space to work. There are plenty of tables and benches to seat while you eat. You can also pick up freshly caught seafood at one of the many stores around the dock to take home and cook as well!

The fisherman's terminal is a nice place to get away from the busy life. There are places to eat near the water. Walking paths around the water that makes one feel tranquil. It's quite beautiful very early in the morning when the sun just begins to rise. When you look out at the water and the boats that are floating at bay you think , "Oh it looks like the boats are floating a top shining jewels."

This is so cool!!!!! I have a friend works down there that's going to tell me when the deadliest catch boats come in. I've always wanted to see those up close. My mom will be so thrilled. This is a really cool place to go. There's beautiful boats and the restaurants. Really good. Chinooks it's a really cool old Seattle area

I rode an e-scooter over here to explore this place and was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked this terminal. There are endless boats here, of all fishing and recreational varieties. What's especially excellent is the quality of the explanatory signs that explain the different types of fishing boats! The signs are extremely educational and well-written. It's also fun to look at the boat name...
Mid-September hosts the Fishermen’s Fall Festival with free kids’ boat-building and music. Summer sees more boat activity and open markets. Winter can be quiet and windy—dress warmly and time breaks indoors.
