Ecola Seafoods Restaurant & Market sits just a few blocks from the beach in Cannon Beach, serving wild-caught seafood in a casual, no-frills setting. It functions as both a restaurant and fresh fish market, with an upstairs rooftop deck that includes a fire pit and partial ocean views.
The menu features halibut fish and chips with crisp batter, fresh gluten-free clam chowder loaded with clams, popcorn shrimp, and seaweed salad. Dungeness crab, steamed shrimp platters, and other catch-of-the-day options rotate through the kitchen and market counter. For those looking to bring seafood home, many items are sold by the pound. A small selection of local beers rounds out the offerings.
Dining is low-key and informal, with quick counter service and both indoor and rooftop seating. The upstairs area is especially popular around sunset, where diners can unwind with warm food and a view. Whether stopping in for lunch or picking up ingredients for a beach rental dinner, Ecola Seafoods focuses on fresh, regional catch done simply.
