OleBob’s Seafood Market
OleBob’s Seafood Market is a beloved family owned seafood market located on the historic Pier 39 in Astoria, the site of the former Bumble Bee cannery. Known for its commitment to fresh, local, and sustainable seafood, OleBob’s specializes in Oregon and Washington sourced seafood, with owner Bill noting that more than 80% of their seafood comes from the Pacific Northwest.
The market is especially known for its Oregon Dungeness crab, available as picked crab meat, live, or cooked and chilled from their large onsite holding tanks. Guests will also find Oregon salmon, Netarts Bay oysters, and a variety of seafood offerings based on seasonal availability. While not a full restaurant, visitors can order whole cooked crab, oysters on the half shell, and oyster shooters to enjoy onsite while taking in the historic working waterfront atmosphere.
OleBob’s works directly with fishermen and trusted local processors, with staff able to speak knowledgeably about where and how the seafood was harvested. The market also offers unique take-home items like their house crab cake batter, allowing customers to recreate Oregon Coast seafood flavors at home.
