The Anacortes Brewery and Rockfish Grill

 

The Anacortes Brewery is located at 320 Commercial Ave in Anacortes, WA. If you are taking the ferry to the San Juans from Anacortes, this is a great place to stop for lunch or dinner. We have enjoyed the food and the beer on many occaisons.

 

Anacortes Brewery Labels (from the website)
