Best Happy Hour in Anacortes, Washington – Rockfish Grill Appetizers and Beer from the Anacortes Brewery

An hour and a half north of Seattle sits Anacortes, Washington (map), gateway to the San Juan Islands. Founded over a century ago, this maritime town on Fidalgo Bay has its small town feel well in tact. Tourists strolling Downtown Anacortes in the busy summer months passing art galleries and European bakeries on their way to the San Juan Islands. The short, sleepy winter days are mostly for the locals. Frequenting one of the local watering holes is quite the norm for some and who can blame them with a bar and restaurant like the Rockfish Grill featuring beer from the Anacortes Brewery next door.
