We've been stopping here for years - fantastic breakfasts, esp'ly when they have razor clams or hangtown fry! have yet to find the courage to order the 8 lb burger but I've seen folk attack its 2 lb little brother read more

I thought I had rated this business before. Instead, I see a few photos, where I had, in fact ordered fish and chips about a decade ago. That experience would have made for 4 stars. I was happy to see that Newport Cafe was still around. I went in to look at the menu, sat down, and ordered. When the food came and I started to eat, I thought this would play out like another 4 star event. Let me preface this by saying that Newport Cafe currently gets 2 stars from me, with the two words assigned to those stars being: CHISELING CENTRAL I ordered the meatloaf, which had a nice garnish vegetables, and the mashed potatoes with gravy. I also ordered lemonade. I ate and asked for the bill. When the bill arrived, I saw that there was a $2 upcharge for a side of gravy, the same gravy that went onto the mashed potatoes. Rarely have I seen meatloaf presented "dry." It typically has gravy or a tomato based sauce on it. Waiter #1, who took my order, was the nicer of the two guys. Waiter #2 brought me the check. I'm used to paying up charges for extra bleu cheese, tartar sauce, or tzatziki sauce, but not for pedestrian gravy and certainly not $2 at a roadside diner. Waiter #2 got testy when I asked him about the charge, told him that I've not seen meatloaf presented "dry," and I don't think I've ever been charged for gravy. His smart alecky answer before walking away was, "I can tell." At this point, I just wanted to pay the bill and get out of there. I was able to get waiter #1's attention. I brought up the same issue since he was more affable and seated me. In fact, he and I discussed a sauce his grandparents would apply to their meat loaf! He said that the charges are listed and it's treated as a side. I don't think that a person would move from the dinner menu list ... to the backside of the menu to scour it for sides for gravy, like they would for additional vegetables or potatoes. I told him he could have also told me it was extra because I would have passed. This isn't about being petty as much as it is about Newport Cafe obfuscating the situation. In a few minutes, it got even worse. The credit card used fee was obviously pegged at 4%, which might even be higher than what the credit card companies really charge them. This then starts looking similar to the subplot in the comedy "Office Space," where small rounding amounts add up to some moolah over a lot of customers. It got even worse when they brought me the credit card point of sale machine. Upon entering my tab, I saw a much higher amount displayed. Waiter #1 told me it was the suggested tip. The tip was in the ball park of 25%! He told me I could change it. You can bet I did. (Upon recently having breakfast at IHOP, the available tip options were 15%, 18%, 20%, and other.) With such a crazy amount on there, the buyer who is not the sharpest tool in the shed with numbers might accidentally tap the "accept" button. I changed the tip to zero. I've done that less than a handful of times in my life. The math indicates that $2.00 for the pedestrian gravy and 84 cents for the credit card fee add up to $2.84, thus a 15% tip of the base in and of themselves. I do think it is tacky to stiff a server. However I saw a boss do it and it was warranted. We were in a nicer Italian restaurant in Manhattan for work and, at the end of the dinner, my boss stacked a couple of the plates. The petulant Italian waiter - from Italy - at this pissy restaurant said 'No, no, no, you don't stack the plates at a nice restaurant.' My boss was insulted by this, and so was I, whereby an arrogant foreign waiter berated my white collar boss to give her a crash course on "executive charm school" manners. I bring this up because she entered a big glaring zero as the tip amount. With the flippant "I can tell" comment and $2.84 in fees, there's your tip. The food was good, but not spectacular. It's basic comfort food. I remember liking their fish and chips more and how, some ten years ago, it was a benign and relaxing experience. It goes without saying that Newport Cafe's location and decor is interesting. Thinking about the credit card usage fee, that means it's also applied to the already overpriced sweatshirts and other tourist paraphernalia they sell. I could see the cooks hard at work when I went to use the restroom before settling in. It's too bad that this went south so quickly. I watched the sea lions bark for about 15 minutes and got back on the road. I really would have liked to have eaten in Lincoln City, but Maxwell's is no longer around, and I didn't think I could hold out until Lincoln City. With that linear experience where they bring you tasty fish and chips, you pay normal prices, there are no weird upcharges and a preset tip that you have to undo gone, it's time to move on. Again, I'm at 2 stars. I've already suggested the 2 words CHISELING CENTRAL to accompany the 2 stars. I could also go with the 2 words TOURIST TRAP read more

We weren't as impressed as some others with the quality of the food here. It was quite busy on a Saturday morning, and the only seats available were at the counter. We knew what we wanted to eat and ordered quickly and the server took our order quickly. We had a variety of fried fish with mashed potatoes and clams with french fries. When the food arrived, the french fries were missing. They had forgotten them. So they ordered them and they came well after the fact. The fish was reasonably tasty but nothing extra special. And the clams seemed to be packaged and not fresh. Again, nothing too special. Some of the breakfast items that we saw served seemed much better than our luncheon items. But I doubt we'll return. read more

I'm changing my rating to a 5 because this was a meal i'll always remember because of the availabilty of clams for breakfast and good service. i wish i was there. read more

This place is a gem! very nice staff, excellent food and huge portions. We would definetly go back if in the area again!

Food was amazing we ate the three fish and chips combo with cod, halibut, and the best fried salmon . It's was all amazing but who'd a thought to batter salmon! It was fantastic . The lady at the counter that took my order was absolutely amazing , I had to custom a salad and she was so accommodating!! Great service , amazing food ! They are really busy so have some patience it is totally worth it !!!! Highly recommended!!! read more

Food was so good that we returned the following day. Ordered a steak well done. Told them they could chop it into a 100 pieces, NO PINK. DEAD. Came out pretty much raw. Sent it back. Came back out perfect but cooked veggies and mashed potatoes were ice cold. Fiance's food was cold by the time mine came back out. No offer to remake, didn't charge for steak dinner but was charged for fiance's food which he clearly barely touched. So much for eating together....couldn't even eat. I would not have cared if they microwaved the sides I just cant eat them cold. Loved the place until I ordered steak. Service was amazing, large portions for a good price. Paid for a babysitter to have a meal we could enjoy together and instead we both left starving while paying for a a meal that couldn't be eaten. read more

Service was amazing. The food however was horrible. It was possibly the worst fish my family has ever had. I don't know what happened because my niece always swore by this place. read more

Great food and great service. I'd recommend this place to anyone. I had a grilled chicken sandwich with a side salad and my wife had a cheeseburger with fresh-cut fries. Everything was delicious! read more

We were crazing breakfast for dinner! One of the only, if not the only, restaurant in Newport that does all day breakfast! Even the piggly wiggly was closed!! Staff was phenomenal and super attentive. Plenty of seating and would be good for medium party sizes. read more

5 Stars from us. Great service. Great prices and some of the best diner food I've had. Order was delivered directly to our door by the staff. I like that. They put their name of their food and they stand behind it. What an amazing find for a large group of people that has a lot of different food preferences. read more

We went to breakfast.... which i love - but also have to admit that it's kind of hard to screw up. The food was good, but i want to talk more about the service. This place's staff is so super friendly and warm and welcoming! We chatted with everyone! It gets pretty crowded, and we were there at a peak time, so it was bustle-y and busy.... but i asked about our servers tattoos and she stopped and shared the entire story with me. Sometimes in a touristy location, they just want you to get in, eat, and get out. THIS was not THAT!! (Also, the menu is huge! so good luck deciding what to nosh!) we'll definitely be back. read more

Delicious!!! Great service; chili was child temp for my kiddo & they brought it out first. We're all happy with dinner & look forward to coming back. read more

Newport Cafe - Fantastic chicken fried steak, perfect veggies! Clam chowder was delicious too!! I can't wait to come back! - Burgers Near Me - Newport, Oregon

Old time, local, friendly, eclectic place with very rapid service and a willingness to make the customer happy. The Benedict was quite good. The crab sandwich was reallllly good. The burger was good. The fish was cooked perfectly but probably was breaded too soon while thawing? Decent dessert choices including key lime pie and cheese cake. Bought a sticker and a sweatshirt. read more

Great group of people,very nice and always smiling and helpful. The food is always good, we eat there every time we go over to newport and fish. Great clam chowder and great breakfast read more

Had to come in and get the 8lb monster burger. Let me just say this exceeded all of my expectations. Not only was the service great, and the staff amazing. The burger was incredible! You might think that the quality might suffer because of the massive size. Not the case whatsoever, actually one of the best burgers I've had. The best part was it didn't end, I got to enjoy this until I couldn't take another bite. Then I got to enjoy it as leftovers for days to come. This could literally feed a whole family! Highly recommend this item! read more

I like the food, but I use delivery a lot. Newport Cafe will deliver, but only if I give a stranger my full credit card information. I wish they would partner with DoorDash or another delivery service available in Newport. read more

I recently traveled out of state from Las Vegas to visit a charming café, and it was definitely worth the trip. The food was very good, with everything made fresh to order. Each dish had a delightful homemade quality that really stood out. However, I felt that the menu could use a little more variety. While the dishes were tasty, a few more options would have made the experience even better. It did take while for us to place our order. The decor on the walls gives me the impression that someone here used to be a boxer or fighter turned business owner. read more

Amazing food, and I love love LOVE fried mushrooms. They are hard to find these days, but Newport Cafe does them right!!! I almost want to drive from Eugene just to eat here!!! read more

Fast service, tiny portions, crappy clam chowder. Way too expensive for the quality and size.

Food was delicious and large serving. We shared a fish platter with tater tots and a bowl of clam chowder. The clam chowder was the best in the area from five different restaurants that I tried while here on vacation. If nothing else just get some clam chowder here. Service was excellent. It's a dinner ambiance. Not fancy at all. But the food is great and service is excellent. Least expensive place we ate all week long. Clam Chowder, Fish and Chips, read more

Here are the bulletpoints of my first trip to the Newport Cafe.. ‐ Small Town café appearance (4 stars) exterior on the roadside didn't seem nearly as inviting as the interior. ‐ Friendly staff (5 stars] ‐ Menu selection (5 stars) so many great things to choose from. ‐ Prices (5 stars) 2 big panko crusted razor class and red potatoes for $23. ‐ Food quality. The razor clams and clam strip dishes were fresh, hot and tasted great. And the home.made fries are as good as you'll find. (5 stars) We'll definitely be back! read more

Small town café atmosphere. The biscuits and gravy are amazing. Prime Rib roast and eggs was medium rare, very good. Good link sausage. And good coffee. Friendly service. Good selection of hot sauces. read more

I've been here a couple of times and it feels so homey! The food is pretty cheap compared to other places of similar quality, and there are many options (including allergen free options). The staff are AMAZING no matter who you are! My only issue would be that there are flies around the windows sometimes, but other than that I think this place is definitely a good spot to hit if you're looking for a nice meal in Newport! read more

Always love eating here. Just good greasy spoon cafe food! Very friendly staff and owners.

We showed up for a late lunch around 130 pm on a Saturday and the cafe was packed. We only had about a ten minute wait to get a table for four. They have a large menu, something for everyone.   We got the taco salad, crab melt, side of french fries and a cheeseburger.   The taco salad was huge! We could have shared. The shell was fried in house and loaded with ground beef, lettuce and all the fixings.  The crab melt was good but messy. The crab had a bit more mayo than I'm used to so with each bite, the mayo mixture seeped out. The meal came with a generous portion of french fries. I'd probably order something else next time.  The cheeseburger was good. Standard cheeseburger, cooked as it should be, no complaints.   There is indoor and outdoor dining. Although, if you eat outside,  I believe their sign said it comes with a charge for take-out boxes.  The cafe offers take-out, delivery and is open seven days a week.  The workers impressed me. They were focused on getting to each table quick and running food out. They were in constant motion.  Newport Cafe is located just off the highway. Lots of parking. Call in your order ahead of time for take-out. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

My meal was excellent! Service - A+ Flavor of food - A+ Quantity of food - A+ Coffee - A+ Selection - A+ I ordered the Chile Rellenos from the breakfast menu (I think it was $17). I requested a biscuit rather than the corn tortillas that would usually be served with this entree. I loved each and every bite! The meal included beans (black and pinto combo) two eggs (I chose over easy) salsa, the best chile relleno I've ever had the pleasure to eat. The coffee was great too. If they were local to where I live, I'd be back to try everything else on the menu. The outside of the building and the view from inside to outside is nothing special while the inside is cute. read more

We stopped by this place on our way out of town with low expectations. I would describe this as a diner. Staff was very friendly. The food was fantastic. Probably one of the best breakfasts I've had in a long time. I'm a biscuits and gravy freak, they were amazing. Definitely hit this place if you're in town. read more

Picked up some fresh brewed by the cup coffee this morning and it was delish. Great friendly service!

Humongous servings and the food is really good. We always stop here when we go to Newport.

I did not eat in Newport cafe but went inside to order pick up. The staff is all friendly and delivered it to my car. We ate it at the beach and truly enjoyed the food. The clam chowder is packed with all the ingredients and has great flavor. They also pack everything you need to go. My sandwich was a crab sandwich and it hit the spot I was looking for. My partner had a Philly cheesesteak and also enjoyed. Great take out food for the coast to go to the beach. read more

Great Breakfast Experience @ Newport Cafe in Newport, OR. !! First time patrons to this Cafe during the late morning rush on a Friday. The staff acknowledged us upon entry and guided us to an open table. They were friendly enough, but did not adhere to the first come, first serve unspoken rule, so we were a little put off when they took someone else's order before us, who clearly arrived after us. Extensive breakfast food options. We appreciated the well stocked selection of condiments provided at every table. The coffee was average and our meals were delicious, served hot, and the side of bacon, crisp. Portion sizes were more than enough. The restaurant itself leans toward old-fashioned, but clean and colorful. They had logo merchandise for purchase. The dining area was on the smaller side, but the tables were adequately spaced out. We would dine here again. read more
