Roasted beet salad
Centrally located on Whidbey Island in Coupeville, the Oystercatcher has proudly served simply good food for almost 20 years. Chef Tyler Hansen and his team create a harmonious farm-to-table menu to showcase all that the island, and the region, has to offer. Historically, the island provided an abundance of food, with the prairie serving as a sacred place for those who lived here. We honor that tradition at the restaurant today by working with the farmers who continue to keep that heritage alive on the island.

“The Oystercatcher could be the poster child for locally sourced, sustainable, farm to table dining.”
“A bit farther on is Coupeville, a gem situated on Penn Cove and the home turf of those locally famous mussels. Get them—and pork belly, and much more—at The Oystercatcher, a cozy dining spot with some tasty fare.”
