Adrift Restaurant uses the bounty of the Skagit Valley and the surrounding waters to create memorable meals. Featuring locally raised meats, heaps of seafood, organic produce, and decadent desserts. A’Town Bistro is a cozy restaurant, in the historic downtown Anacortes community offering local food with a rustic, old-world flair.
Find some one-of-a-kind, original art pieces at our galleries. Scott Milo Gallery showcases a new group of artists each month and also has permanent displays featuring a wide selection of jewelry, glasswork, sculptures, and tables. Home Sweet Home Antiques can be found in a darling 1927 cottage located on Commercial Ave. They’re the first antique store as you drive into town through the roundabout. They offer a fabulous collection of vintage nautical glass fish floats in various sizes, American antique furniture, glass, pottery, toys, as well as hundreds of vintage collectibles.
At The Apothecary Spa in downtown Anacortes, enjoy a side-by-side couples massage in a relaxed, peaceful setting. Both of you will be in the same room for that feeling of closeness and togetherness that you have been looking for. Two massage therapists will work in tandem on each of you and work out all the kinks of the day and prepare you for the rest of your evening together. Consider it a mini-vacation together as the long, flowing massage strokes melt your tension and perk your senses.
