Buoy 9 Restaurant & Lounge: Fresh Seafood and Casual Dining in Hammond, OR

Great local restaurant/bar with good food. We went in the early afternoon twice in one week, (Monday then Thursday)while camping at Ft. Steven’s State Park. The service was fast. I tried both types of the fish and chips. Both were very good. I preferred the Cod over the Halibut. My wife had the BLT with avocado then the French dip. She liked both very much. Good size parking lot with room around back for a few RVs. Covered outside dining area for the warmer days.

Staying in town while traveling and found this restaurant on Google maps, so we gave it a shot. Super glad we did. Waitress was awesome, attentive, and friendly. Steak was perfect medium rare, steamed bucket, clam chowder, fried oysters were all great. We also had to give props for the berry cobbler. Fantastic. Highly recommend if you’re hungry!

The one of the most funny things during a trip is discovering nice restaurants. Have our breakfast here. Actually, the food is not too bad. The New York steak comes with 3 eggs, grill potatoes, and bread, very big plate, only $26, very good. But what we didn’t expect is the shrimp omelette makes with frozen baby shrimps, which is a little bit disappoint. The French toast is not the same as I had normally either. The maple syrup is perfect, but the way they make the French toast is a bit different from what I’m used to. I’m not sure what kind of bread they use, it is soft, but also a bit dense and salty. When mixed with the maple syrup, the flavor was hard to describe. Maybe it’s their signature style, but personally, I’m not a big fan of that sweet-and-salty combination. However, the service is the best. The lady always smile to everyone. She even helps a young couple to take care of the crying baby, let them enjoy the breakfast. It makes the morning is very sweet and beautiful.

Welcoming local watering hole and just a great place to have a meal. They are located just a few blocks away from the Hammond Marina and a great viewing spot to water the barge traffic on the Columbia River. There's a family restaurant side and a No Minors side, so if you just want to watch the game with other adults, you can. Warm and cozy atmosphere created by the lovely wood walls and ceiling. Casual and friendly. They have an outside seating area as well. The food is really good. The best cod fish 'n chips that I've had in a while. The fries were done perfectly crispy without being overdone. Kudos to the chef! The fish was flake-apart heaven. Tasty tartar sauce; good chopped coleslaw. Save room for dessert...the blackberry cobbler a' la mode finished me off, and I rolled out the door fat and happy! Highly recommend!

My husband and i love bouy, specifically the people at bouy is what makes it so homely. i would love if they could get a gluten free bun option (it’s 2026 & they freeze beautifully) but because they don’t i get a shrimp louie everytime i eat there and it’s exactly the way a shrimp louie should be, about the same amount of shrimp as salad mix. and the chef josé is a true culinary genius.

This is one of our very favorite places to eat in the area. Whether you want bar food, brunch or steak, they have it all. In the later years of my grandmother's life she and I would eat here once a month because they served her very favorite BBQ ribs. I have eaten countless prime rib dinners here and never once left disappointed or hungry.

Great place! Bar is cozy. The best halibut fish n chips I've ever had! Don't pass up on the marionberry cobbler if they are offering it!

They had amazing clam chowder! Fish and chips were alright. Great place overall
