You know, I've been going to the lock spot for a long time now, and it's just a great place to hang out with friends. It's not fancy, but the food and drinks are good, and the vibe is chill. Some food items I would recommend are the clam …

AMAZING fish and chips!! Very nice atmosphere inside too. Good variety of options on the menu, including brunch and desserts. Hopefully I can come back in the summertime and eat outdoors, and try one of the desserts too!

Ok food and service in a fun atmosphere. This restaurant reminds me of little seaside shacks with lots of outdoor tables. I had the fish and chips, and a Puget Sound Punch. The fish and chips were ok. The fish was overcooked without …

What can I say that hasn’t be said before? The Lockspot hasn’t changed much over its many decades but in this case, that’s a good thing. The food is great, the service too-notch. You’ll probably be the youngest person there no matter how old you are.

The food and service is fantastic! This is old school Ballard done perfectly. Props to the ownership and staff in both the front and back of the house. What a treat! Try it if you haven’t. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.❤️

Quick and easy dinner at the Lockspot cafe. We had burgers, fish and chips and fish tacos! Very yummy! Only complaint was the fries that were way overcooked but it was a perfect summer evening to eat outside at the picnic table.

From seeing the salmon at the fish ladder we stumbled across this cafe on the other side of the garden and what a find! We sat on the back patio, there was a great choice of local beers, food was delicious! Had the salmon chowder and fish and chips in the panko breadcrumbs so good! Great service would recommend.

The Lockspot has been around for years and it’s been awhile since I’ve been to this iconic place that is known for some appearances from the deadliest catch crew. Maybe you’ll get lucky if you swing on by. The food is average and nothing …

We had a lovely dinner~the Husband got the sampler platter, which was delicious; I had the halibut fish & chips, which pleasantly surprisingly were only $1 more than the cod (TRUST ME, a rarity) and perfectly cooked. Most places are …

Most favorite seafood restaurant now. I had the Calamari appetizer. It wasn’t like any other. Instead of being stringy and tough, it was very lightly battered, tender, nice size pieces, and tasty. …
