Hindsight Seafood Cafe - Watsonville

Looking for a casual spot in Watsonville? Look to further than the Hindsight Cafe. The food is spot-on every time I've eaten here. There's a food renaissance in Watsonville starting to happen and this place is part of it. So happy to have them in the neighborhood!

Food is always fantastic and we always bring our out of town friends here when they visit. We typically order a lot of food and always tip well, I just wish the bearded bartender wasn't so unwelcoming. It makes it hard to convince my husband to come back as often as I'd like.

I adore this place and love coming here with my partner for a date. We love the oysters (I swear they are the freshest in town), the “Not so Lobsta” roll and the garlicky steamed muscles (if they have jt). Everything is always super fresh and high quality :)The beers are Fruition are fine af too. I love any of the snack series and the Slip Pilsner cuz it pairs well with the food here.The chef Ryan is one of the coolest, kind, hardworking person I know and it always feels like such a treat to be able to enjoy his food.

I’m always on the lookout for oysters and when you combine them with good beer, that’s a WinWin. The steamed mollusks are excellent and I always ask for extra bread to enjoy the broth. Hindsight lies within Fruition Brewery.

Ryan hooks it up with some of the best of seafood in town. My partner and I walk our dog here often to chill outside, get a drink oysters. The oysters are always fresh and everything on the menu is bomb and made with care !!
