We eat here so often. Pretty much every time we go to Newport we come here. The clam chowder is the best! The service is amazing! Everything I have ever ordered there is simply perfectly delicious. Best of all they so graciously welcome our Golden Retrievers so warmly. They bring buckets of fresh cold water and after running on the beach our pups are so thirsty. Did I mention we have 5 Goldens. It’s great to have such an amazing restaurant to go to that always welcomes our large pack with a smile. Tonight we stopped in and the owner said we win the cutest dog award and comped our meal. Just when I thought this place couldn’t get any better they managed to find a way. Thank you so much Chowder Bowl.

Friendly service, delicious food. I had the garlic white bread w/ slumgolian chowder and a side order of the fries which were thinly sliced potatoes that were crispy. I was quite satisfied with the results. The bread was kinda like french toast in regards to thickness, but incredibly fluffy and soft that pulled apart nicely. Finished with a slice of the chocolate cake which I would forgo next time, it wasn’t bad, but it seemed like store bought cake. Very dense with loads of frosting.
Our server was incredibly friendly and attentive.
Atompshere… Tables are a bit close together, but it’s nothing out of the ordinary for a restaurant cafe. Now, the kid yelling “is that a butt crack…” Was funny the first time. Third time, was bad parenting. Don’t bring your youngins to a restaurant if you’re not going to monitor
Overall solid experience and would return.
Prices:
Cake $8 / slice
Slumgolian Chowder $18
Bread $1.25 / slice (fair)

This was one of our favorite food stops on the coast. The theme and atmosphere are really great. The staff was so nice and accommodating of our family, always smiling at our one year old, with a high chair and a kid water cup.
We got the chowder, fish and chips, and Marionberry crisp. All were perfect! The fish and chips were much better than many other places we tried.
Definitely stop by here for yummy food and good vibes.

The clam chowder was the best I’ve ever had on the Oregon coast. It tasted incredibly delicious and fresh you could even taste a little bit of sand, which made it feel authentic. I totally recommend coming here to try it. 10/10.

Excellent location, next to the famous Nye beach. Had a delicious hot lunch late in the afternoon. Stayed long enough to see the sunset. Clam chowder, fish tacos and baked salmon were delicious.

I was looking for something different with good clam chowder. It was good but nothing great. May have been better if service was better and it was almost as if because I was a party of one I was an inconvenience. Marion berry cobbler was more of a bread pudding texture but the filling was good.

My wife and I stopped by the Chowder Bowl for dinner while the King Tides were going on. The service, and the food was good but, the prices have gone up a bit since the last time we ate there. I believe they are under new ownership because they have changed things around a little bit.
We probably won’t be going there as much as we use too but, it wasn’t bad.
Thank You, We had a Good Experience!

The calm chowder bread bowl is amazing. The bread is soft,fluffy, and the toasted top part of the bowl. The chowder is creamy. The flavors are spot on. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to try this place. The staff is so friendly and checked on me often. Quite little place with some music playing in the background.

My fiance and I came here yesterday. I got the pesto chicken sandwich; (1/5), I had asked for extra pesto on the side and they put extra on the sandwich and it was odd because there was NO pesto, at all; it was like ranch.
We got the butter & garlic shrimp as an appetizer (1/5) and No flavor at all; not even the garlic had flavor and some of the shrimp still had their intestinal track.
My fiance got the fish tacos with mango salsa (1/5), the corn tortillas were flimsy; they were filled with fish, cabbage and mango salsa that lacked seasoning.
The best part of our meal was the chowder. The best in Newport that we found.

Super friendly waitress, casual atmosphere, fun decor, and my husband and I split the namesake chowder and a smoked salmon Cobb Salad. There’s a lot more offered on the menu that was really tempting, and folks there were really enjoying their fried fish platters that looked very generously supplied.
The chowder was wonderful. Rich, thick, big slices of fresh clams. The pat of butter was gilding the lily, but it was really good, and the oyster crackers were fresh and crisp.
The smoked Cobb was piled with good things, as you can see from the picture as well. Plenty of avocado, a pile of bacon, all the blue cheese we might want, fresh ripe tomatoes, the lettuce was fresh, and the slab of smoked salmon was rich, generous, and flavorful. I especially liked the lemon on top as the acidity helped with all the richness. The one salad was plenty for the both of us.
