    Crab cakes
    Ellena K.

    Cute little place in Oceanside. I loved the interior, tons of old pictures and decor. We stoped in for breakfast, had the pancakes and crab cakes. Both were pretty good, nothing super impressive. Service was very fast, especially for how busy they were. There was a decent amount of tables inside (and I think a patio), but I imagine it gets busy. I would love to come back for lunch or dinner. Menus had a pretty large variety too!

    Had a wonderful breakfast with my bestie at the Blue Agate. The place is very small with lots of ocean view windows. Lots of history on the walls of Oceanside. Tables are quaint with small jars with flowers on the table. We got there a little after 11:00 when they switch from breakfast to lunch. Even though it was past time, they still let me order breakfast. I got the chicken fried steak and it was delicious. It was a good portion but not too big and the steak was thin and crispy with peppery white gravy. Very delicious. The home made fried potatoes were really clean and cooked well. At first I just ordered sourdough toast but then I saw them deliver a big fluffy biscuit to another table. I asked the waitress if it was possible to get one of those instead if it wasn't too late. I offered to pay the difference but she said it was no problem. This was a light and freshly baked with jam and butter. Don't skip this if you go there. The company I was with, the view, the food and the service made this a highlight of my trip. Did I mention the beautiful beach is right across the street? Do not miss out on this amazing place. Your tummy will thank you.

    These are the nicest people! Great service, willing to chat when not busy. The food was great. I tried the Blue Agate fries which have cheese and pulled pork. The sauce was a little rich, but works with the fries. The chowder was good (but a little heavy on the black pepper). The fish tacos were awesome. And I love the berry lemonade. The shop is small, so prepare for a wait during busy season.

    Beautiful scenery.

    View is stunning right from the table and very friendly service. Also the food was delicious.

    Excellent for breakfast, next to our cabin, and across from The beach, location, location, location. The food was super yummy and big portions. We were not sure about the crab cake eggs combo but took a chance. It worked. The skillet potatoes were excellent, golden crispy outside and soft inside. Loved the biscuits, soft, warm, melted in each bite. Service was fantastic, family run business, the owner is lovely l, we had a nice conversation with her. They do have an outside patio.

    Perfect breakfast view. Crab cakes are lovely.

    Love this darling little cafe. Great breakfast, cozy setting. The waitstaff feel like they could be my auntie and the food is comforting and yummy. Parking is terrible as this is a teeny town.

    Steamer clams
    Mason Y.

    Nice friendly establishment that was one of the few restaurants open in the area. We had to wait 30 minutes for the breakfast menu to close out before they started serving lunch, but they communicated that very well I won't hold it against them. We had the crab cakes, steamer clams, and grilled rock bass. The steamer clams were a nice portion, but still had some sand in it. However there was a nice mix of onion and tomato broth plus buttered toast that it was quite satisfying. The crab cakes were a bit small for my taste and it felt like it could have used some more crabs. It was also a bit dense. The grilled rock bass was great - they ran out of rice but the side salad sub was not a bad choice. Overall, a solid place in the area!

    Country Benedict, country fried steak and view of the ocean
    Emily K.

    On our last morning in cozy Oceanside, we decided to try this local place near the beach access. It's small and weathered, but was a great experience. Our waitress and who we presume to be the owner was very friendly and shared even history of the place. We ordered a coffee, the country benedict, country fried steak, and an orange juice. The food was delicious! Huge portions. I will mostly think about those potatoes, which were both soft and crispy. The owner was proud to share everything was made from scratch, and you can tell. The orange juice did get missed in the order, but we didn't mind and the owner was kind enough to take it off our bill. It's a little pricey of a breakfast, but you'll eat good and you can't beat the cozy location near the water!

    Crab cakes with eggs over-medium
    Tim M.

    I definitely enjoyed the food here! Blue Agate is a small cafe right next to the beach, so you can fuel up and head over a few feet to the beach! The crab cakes are excellent, though I think they need more crab in them, and I think it would be amazing if they had a lemon glaze on them. But overall it's delicious. The breakfast burrito is excellent. Stuff with plenty of protein, and the size is pretty big, so you might want to share it if you eat less. Service is friendly and they seat you right away.

    Is this cafe still open? We drove from Lookout Cape and were disappointed it was closed. Hours say it's open now but called ahead this time and no one answered.

    They are open, ate there today

For outside dining; walk inside Garibaldi's Portside Bistro, procure a menu, make your selections, go back inside - order and pay at the counter. Your meal will be delivered expeditiously. Lovely aesthetic with views overlooking the peaceful harbor with birds swooping in and around. The interior is clean, welcoming and comfortable. I am not a big burger girl but let me tell you this; we (both) ordered the PBJ Marionberry Burger and it's the best burger that Mr. Wonderful and I have EVER had! (*HE eats a lot of burgers!) I tried to get a good cross-section photo, but I'm not a professional (like John). Anyway, they give you a bunch of wet wipes with this meal because - *YES! The only snafu we experienced was - ordered 1 IPA and 1 blonde and ended up with two IPAs - Mr. Wonderful & IPA = no bueno but he's too nice. Even after I double checked with Tami (who was wonderful) he stuck with their error. Would we return? 100% most definitely!

This place is tucked in off the main drag but the food and prices are well worth the search. Actually Google Maps took us right there. It's not hard to find and there is plenty of parking. The menu is extensive and the food is delicious. The portions are very amazing too. I tried the clam chowder and have to say it is one of the top chowders I have ever eaten and I have tried a lot of clam chowders. My wife had a French dip sandwich, they do not skimp on the beef. Pricing is very reasonable also. This is not fast food but quick service is definitely a priority here. Can't wait for our next trip to Tillamook to eat at Beef & Brews. Beef & Brews will absolutely be added to our list of good eating places.

I have gotten the breakfast burrito when having breakfast and would characterize it as large, yet underwhelming in taste. None of the beers that i have tried are particularly memorable, but they are very drinkable. The service is courteous and they strive to keep the tables clean. The ordering here is done at the counter and I have found this to be a great way of taking orders in a casual establishment. This allows one to peruse the menu at a table at one's own speed, then walk up to the counter to ask any questions about the menu and then place the order. My experiences have been that the employee at the register has always been patient, informative and respectful. They bring your order to your table when it is ready. My experience is that they give you a conservative estimate of the time for preparing and the real time has been shorter. Note that I think they do a good job with turnaround times given how many customers are in the restaurant combined with their apparent significant take-out business. My dinner experiences have been very satisfying and that is what one would expect from a meat purveyor. However, they do not fumble the ball on the execution. Casual food, but tasty. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating: plenty of both. Part of the outside seating is heated and covered during much of the year. I have never been there when you could not choose a table. I think a great casual stop, and a unique one, when visiting the Tillamook area.

We actually meant to go to the Pelican Brewing location in Lincoln City but accidentally put the Pacific City location into our GPS. The food is the same at both locations, so if you're simply coming for the food and don't have a dog, this location is perfectly fine. That said, after visiting the Lincoln City location, I'd absolutely choose that one instead. It's beautiful inside and out and only about 40 minutes away. The Pacific City location starts off with a pretty terrible parking situation -- the lot is extremely tight and it feels like everyone is parked on top of each other. The indoor space looked perfectly nice, but since we had our dog, we were limited to the outdoor seating, which was extremely disappointing. There were a couple of heaters along one wall, but they weren't being used despite it being a chilly 59-degree day. If I were rating atmosphere alone, I'd probably give this location one star. However, I had no complaints about the service, so I couldn't in good conscience rate the overall experience that low. There was nothing necessarily wrong with our visit -- there just wasn't anything about the space or atmosphere that made me want to stay, relax, and hang out. If you're traveling with a dog, I'd definitely choose the Lincoln City location instead.

Our server opened our bottle of wine, the appetizers came out in a timely manner and I have to say, the calamari was cooked perfectly.  However,  when the main dish came out, the fish with shrimp on top, we bit in to the shrimp and it was completely overcooked. Such a disappointment after the calamari.  We took the shrimp and put them on a small plate and placed it at the end of the table. We continued to eat figuring someone will stop and ask about the shrimp but no one did. Several employees walked by and one even stopped and picked up dishes but never asked about the shrimp.  The server finally came around and and asked about dessert.  It was then that we spoke to him about the shrimp.  We were told that he can take it off the bill or use the amount towards a dessert.  It was definitely a disappointment.  In this situation,  I've normally experienced a manager to stop by but that wasn't the case here. Im not sure if it is protocol in your establishment or not.  Thank you for your time
