The Buoy Bar & Grill

Great drinks! Awesome atmosphere! The service with Kama was incredible too. We loved it. Thank you for a great first night in town!

The Buoy Bar & Grill was amazing. The clam chowder was the best we have ever had! The chicken romesco sandwich was fantastic and had crispy bacon, romesco, and avocado. We would come back ASAP just for the sandwich!

We are huge Buoy beer fans. However, we were not impressed with the helles lager. The beer was on tap, but was on the flat side and had a sweet after taste. The Pacific Pale Ale was fantastic and our new favorite from Buoy. Perfect amount of bitterness, caramel flavors, and deep tones of vanilla. What a fantastic restaurant! We will be back here again.

I'd give atmosphere 10 stars, on the marina, overlooking lake Coeur d'Alene. Awesome fries, burgers and BLT's rock. Try the icy Daiquiris!!!
Really the perfect setting, super organized.

The Buoy is great! Close to CDA Resort, the lake, and even hiking trails that are only several yards from the patio eating area. I had the meatless burger, which is my default at any burger place, and it was great! Loved it! One of the best burgers I have had. The fries are awesome as well. This is a very chill place with live music. Great casual date location. There is no inside seating so pick a nice day to show up. Beautiful views are all around you while eating here! This is one place you need to try if you are in CDA during the summer!

Probably the best burger my mom have ever had. We took her here for mother's Day and the drinks were absolutely amazing. The service wa very quick. Beautiful view. Definitely would recommend.

Super great experience today! Great service, great food, and great view! Will definitely be coming back!

Prices are a little expensive, but food and location are worth it! Fantastic views! And Kayma (sp?) was so nice!

Love the Buoy! Best lakeside option there is! Get the fish taco’s or buffalo chicken sandwich! Both are a favorite. Staff is rad and perfect spot to chill and have a beer, wine or snag a margarita. Just go, you won’t regret it!

Tasty fish tacos and veggie burger. Outdoor patio seating only, and live music that was just a bit too loud. Great view of the harbor and lake.

Great food and service. Definitely a fun spot to enjoy a meal by the lake!

Had a shrimp roll. It was just as good as the sign and the young women taking our order suggested.

Lakeside live music on Friday night was the best way to spend the evening in Coeur d’Alene! Not to mention - delicious fish tacos and the FRIES are sooo crispy and addicting! The view, outdoor patio, live music, and craft beers make a deadly combo! Also won a raffle for a gift card that we didn’t even realize we had entered by buying a beer. This spot is a great hidden gem, and we will definitely be back :)

Such great food and people! Manager Gabriel Cruz was very nice! We got our food within minutes of ordering, and it was all AMAZING!! Best Baja tacos, French fries and huckleberry margaritas!

This is a really great place! Love the food and service every time I go. Perfect spot to take the family.

Always love going here. The atmosphere is sublime & the food is delicious! When I take my friends out to Coeur D’ Alene, this is the first place I mention to eat at. My dad introduced me to this place because his co-worker is the owner & it’s really a great family oriented restaurant. Especially because it’s right by the lake, Tubbs hill, the boat launch, downtown & the CDA resort!

My favorites item on the menu is the anchor burger & I love the fish tacos too! Can’t go wrong with any drinks flavored with Huckleberry either! They’re very generous with their servings & service is sweet as well! Recommend for a fun family, date night or solo outing!

We came on a Friday afternoon for lunch.

Dog friendly!!! It's always great when our pup can be a part of our adventures.

We split the steak fries special and it made a great lake side lunch.

Not a large menu, but they do have alcohol 👉🏼👉🏼

Sidney was amazing! Great experience

My sisters and I went on a little hike at Tubbs Hill to soak up some sun and get in the water, so afterwards we stopped in and had some food and a drink before heading out. This spot is obviously a stop because they've got the only bathrooms after the hike 🤣. But seriously it's such a cool spot because the view is incredible. Drinks were good and so was the food. We enjoyed this peaceful stop. Thanks guys 🥂

This place is great! One of my favorite places to hang in the summer! They offer a super nice variety of drinks. Their huckleberry margarita is my favorite! You’re able to be right by the water which is super convenient! And it’s right next to Tubbs hill. They do live music as well sometimes! 12/10, the perfect spot to hang out and enjoy the warm weather! Best lakeside restaurant in Couer d’Alene!

best service! best food! best view! michael was great!
