They do have a full menu but I like to get there early for b'fast. Great wait staff, plenty of seating although they can get busy on weekends. Vernonia loop ride from the Sunset Highway into Vernonia and then the Scappoose to Vernonia highway back to highway 30 is a nice 100 mile ride from Portland. I prefer to do it on a weekday since that little town can get very crowded on weekends. Not the only breakfast option in town but this place is the best in my opinion.

I'm so grateful that they have generous hours and awesome home-cooked style food. This is like a greasy spoon had a baby with your grandma's recipes. Absolutely everything we've had from the breakfast burritos to the burgers to the Swiss dips have been so delicious, huge portions, and 100% not low calorie! We were even able to call ahead from the house for a pick up order which made it much faster to get our food because they're a small staff team so if you order in person the food can take a bit, but there's plenty to check out inside, or you can take a stroll downtown. Everyone here is also super friendly, and if you get the chance to grab one of the homemade desserts they're awesome too! I snagged a raspberry bar and took the suggestion of heating it in the microwave for 30 seconds - amazing! Highly recommend this place and I know we'll be back again and again now that we're close by!

We recently moved to the area and tried The Black Iron Grill for the first time on May 28, 2026,…read morecoming in the early afternoon for a late lunch. My husband and I came in through the back/side door to dine in, and our server, Kris S. (per receipt 5EGX), told us to sit wherever we wanted. There was only one other customer inside, so the restaurant was not busy at all. There weren't many customers sitting outside, either. We sat for about 15 minutes while Kris walked past us to assist an older gentleman who was dining in at roughly our 10:00. During this time, she never once stopped to ask if we wanted anything to drink or even acknowledge that we were waiting, yet she made multiple trips outside for reasons that were not clear. At one point the gentleman asked if he could fill his water bottle, and instead of simply helping him, Kris loudly shouted directions across the restaurant to tell him where the water station was. This went on for about 30 seconds and was quite a spectacle. After about 15 minutes, Kris finally came to our table and asked if we wanted something to drink. My husband said we were ready to order as well. Her response was snotty and dismissive--something along the lines of, "Well, I like to get your drink order first, and then we'll get your food order." After that rude interaction and the lack of basic hospitality, I pretty much lost my appetite and, honestly, if I could go back in time, we would have just left at that point. Unfortunately, we did stay and ordered food. The food eventually came, but I couldn't really eat mine because the entire experience had put such a bad taste in my mouth and I lost my appetite. My husband ordered a cheeseburger and said it was awful. We got to go boxes so as to not cause a scene, but we threw the food away as soon as we got home. Between the poor service and the disappointing food, there is nothing that would make us want to come back. I was surprised to see the good reviews for this place on Google, because our experience did not match them at all. It honestly makes me wonder if the positive reviews are mostly from bar regulars, friends, or acquaintances who might be getting different treatment than new customers. We are locals now, but unfortunately The Black Iron Grill will not be receiving any more of our business. My husband and I have lived in small towns all over this country, and we see the same pattern of predatory behavior from certain businesses: bad or apathetic service while taking advantage of locals who have fewer options and lower incomes, knowing many people can't easily drive out of town for alternatives. We're not in that position, so we choose carefully where we spend our money--and we don't have to spend it on bad service and bad people. Let's call this what it is: this was a woman on a power trip, making sure we knew who was in charge and that we were at her mercy as customers. To further highlight the predatory nature of this place, they charge $3 just to split a meal (on top of already marked-up food prices--this isn't Pelican Brewery on the coast). Given how hard times are for people these days, with inflation and everything else, and given that not everyone is a business owner, it's shocking you'd treat your community this way. We don't believe these people are clueless; we believe they are selfish and vain. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend The Black Iron Grill and would encourage others to think twice before dining here.

While everything sounded amazing, we grabbed an open wide burrito (breakfast all day? hell yes!) and a crispy chicken bomber with an order of Cajun chips and waffle fries (we had to try both). Very reasonably priced for the HUGE portions, which are easily two meals, and I cannot say enough about how delicious these were. The guy who runs the food truck is so nice too and gave us all kinds of suggestions for exploring the area while he was making our lunch. Everything was made fresh to order, which took a little bit of time, but the time was worth it and now that I know we can order ahead, we won't even have to wait in the future! Highly recommend the Cajun chips for that perfect kick of heat, and if you're looking for a burrito as big as a football, you know where to find it! So good and I can't wait to try even more of his menu!

The vibe was honestly perfect, and I would go out of my way to come back The long: In good old Manzanita, there's this wonderful little spot for those that wanna have a drink and a good bite to eat. Welcome to poach 503. I was a solo diner looking for a bite to eat and stumbled upon this place and let me tell you it was packed 15 minutes after opening. Luckily, since I was by myself, I got to sit on the bar relatively quickly. As for the vibe, it was very homie cozy and honestly made you feel like you were part of the community. The lady that took my order was quick to answer questions and very straightforward, you could also tell that she knew all the locals by name and made a great conversationalist. I ended up getting a nice little hot chocolate wasn't the most adorable cup and sipping just watching the conversations roll by. As for my food, I got the Brekki sandwich which honestly melted in my mouth. It had an interesting tank to it, but that was part of the character that made it so good as for the potatoes that came with it they were fantastic. They had a nice mixture of Cajun and other spices(to my unknowing self). If anyone is in or near manzanita, I would definitely recommend as everyone seemed to be enjoying their drinks in a lively environment with some good food. Rating: 4.75/5
