"Fish and chips specifically are deeply ingrained in the foodway, as they highlight two heavy-hitters: seafood and potatoes. Dungeness crab, oysters, salmon, geoduck, rockfish, and other ocean delectables abound in Washington's 75 ports, and the state is among the top in the nation for aquaculture sales - in fact, local fishers boost Washington's economy by over $600 million. Meanwhile, the state's behemoth potato industry makes it the number two American tuber producer."
"Rockfish Grill on Fidalgo Island has been around for decades, and for good reason - the crisp fries and massive fish portions are unmatched. Expect pilsner beer and panko-battered Alaskan white fish and potatoes fried perfectly, fresh slaw, and roasted red pepper remoulade. The seafood is as fresh as it gets, and the beer-based breading is lighter than air. Get it with one of the 30 different beer styles to complement the fish."
Washington features a broad culinary range from Scandinavian pastries to Teriyaki, but seafood dominates. Fish and chips are deeply ingrained, combining the state's abundant seafood — Dungeness crab, oysters, salmon, geoduck, rockfish — with a major potato industry that ranks second nationally. Local fishers and aquaculture contribute over $600 million to the economy and operate across 75 ports. Fish and chips evoke personal family traditions, beach meals, and ferry-line snacks. Recommended eateries number eleven across the state. Rockfish Grill in Anacortes serves beer-battered panko Alaskan white fish, crisp fries, fresh slaw, roasted red pepper remoulade, and offers 30 beer styles from the attached Anacortes Brewery.
