The Barnacle Bistro opened in April of 2009.  Chef/Owner Evan Boley was given the opportunity to make the Bistro in his own vision.  Since then we have grown into a local and regional favorite serving freshly and uniquely prepared foods.  We owe a lot of success to our local providers; farmers, ranchers fisherman, bakers and brewers--If we don't make it in-house, they do!  Our menu consists of Evan's version of our favorite comfort and coastal foods.  While we do have a set menu we also offer daily specials and our dinner menu is always changing. Stop on by to see what's cookin!

July is almost out the door. Today is an unfortunate mix of injuries and daycare problems that I'm strategically closing for so I can keep the rest of the week intact!  We will be closed today only, July 31st.  Frankie  (my  #2 cook) responsible for filling in my absences is having ankle and foot complications due to a wild youth of BMX riding and repeated injuries!  We will be back tomarrow and I'm planning some more fresh ahi specials.  A Hawaiian syle wasabi/honey Poke sounds amazing and I'm planning on it thursday, friday, and saturday!  We will also be getting fresh Oregon grilled Albacore on the board tommarrow, served with a tasty corn salsa and your choice of sides.  Look forward to seeing you in the bistro.

Happy Spring! May 9th, 2017

Submitted by Evan on

Let's hope the rain is almost through!  Emerging from our winter caves is part of what makes Spring so special!  As you cast off the winter rain jacket don't forget about us here at the Barnacle Bistro.  For the Rest of May were offering 5% off your final bill to kick start the summer season!  Come in before the crowds arrive....

Soups this week are a Tomato soup and today I made a beer cheese soup.  Split pea soup will be rotating in on Thursday just in time for what we hope to be some of the Season's last showers on Thursday and Friday!  Calamari will make an appearance Thursday and Friday with a Siracha Aioli dipping sauce.  

The Patio is near completion!  With new concrete tables, freshly stained and sealed fencing, flower baskets in the greenhouse, and the myriad of other repairs drawing to close, were getting excited to have the outdoor option available once again.  I hope we see you in the Bistro  

December 13, 2016 .. OPEN !

  Took a nice little breather over Turkey Day and visited the East Coast!  Family had a blast and it's a much needed and required break on my part.  But I'm ready to jump back in the grind and I have my taste buds aimed at the smoker and getting back into that vein of culinary treats.  Recently had the smoker (which resides on the pation)  updated with new guts.  Should make for a more consistent smoke flavor and an overall increase in quality!  I'm excited! 

  We are currently looking for more staff to build around as we lost a lot of good people this year that will be hard to replace. Planning on Tuesday - Saturdays: 11:30- 7:30.  Vanessa, Sergio, & Frankie are still with me so we have a good foundation for the future. We are looking forward to welcoming Kevin Broce into the kitchen in the next week as well!

  I'm off to CoosBay after I post this to visit Empire Bakery (and see what they have cooking) and also pick needed items up at Cash n' Carry.  Was looking to start the week of exploring some street cart style South American Steak Tacos and a hearty Turkey, Corn Chowder. Weather depending, I'm gonna smoke some St. Louis Ribs early this week and want to try out a Habanero/ Mango BBQ Sauce for those of us with some heat in our veins!

Hello Bistro Fans,

Well it's been an awfully long time since I posted, so sorry about that. The truth is we were so busy this summer that it just didn't happen. We are now back to a bare bones staff and ready for a break. We will be closed from Nov.13- Dec.7 opening Thursday Dec. 8 for regular business hours. See below for the remainder of our holiday schedule. Please note that we will be closing early, 4:00, on Christmas Eve and New Years Eve. We hope that you find time this holiday season to spend time with loved ones...and when you get sick of them come see us. Let a little Barnacle Bistro lighten up your day, CHEERS!

11/24/2015 Happy Thanksgiving!

Submitted by Evan on

  Been an age since I've posted. Quick update with life and Bistro...  Baby boy (Owen Scott Boley) is perfect, and a perfect handful of mischief.  Crawling with multiple gears and the ability to shift into overdrive, while threatening to stand up any day at 8 months of age.  The Bistro is open Tuesday through Saturday and we've finally found a balance we (meaning mostly me) am able to keep up with.  I appologize for all the closures that took place this summer. I'm still in need of staff but have a core group and am building towards a better summer next year.  I put most of my eggs in one individual last year and when that went south, I was unable to pick up all the hours that crashed into my lap.

  Happy Thanksgiving to all our faithful locals and their traveling families!  We will be open a normal week with the exception of Thanksgiving day.  Just to reiderate, open Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday.  I have a variety of dinner specials and am eagerly awaiting crab season, keeping my fingers crossed for a decent crab season.  The Bistro has a cheesy potato soup and a southwest tomato-turkey soup on the board today. Hope to see you!

8/6 Closed for a few

Submitted by Evan on

I regret to say that we have really struggled with staffing this summer and will need to close for a few days. We will be closed 8/7 to 8/12.  We will be changing our hours to Tuesday-Saturday 12-7 once we reopen.  We wish it wasn't so but this is what we can do.  Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Evan

 

7/10 Summer Craz

Submitted by Evan on

Well it's been awhile since we posted last.  After the birth of our son in March we hit the ground running and haven't had a chance to breathe.  Since then we have updated our menu and now feature a set dinner menu.  It's been a crazy summer so far and shows no signs of stopping.  We are currently understaffed due to injuries, misplaced placed work ethic in young people, and a general shortage of anyone worth a shitake!  We will be closed this Saturday, July 11 but will be back on Monday.  Sorry for the inconvience but I am a shell of a human right now and need a day off.

Sincerely,

Evan (aka Not-Superman)
