We just had breakfast at Yolk and are already planning our next visit ( they are open Friday-Monday, no reservations). I had the country scramble with the seasoned crispy potatoes and biscuit and my husband had the scramble with bacon, avocado and blue cheese. It was all delicious and their coffee is very good. The service is outstanding. It is very popular and busy ( for a good reason!) and we can't wait to return. read more

Good food; I wouldn't say 'excellent', though. Disclaimer: If Yelp! allowed 1/2 stars, Yolk would be a 3.5 star experience. I'm giving it 4 stars and the benefit of the doubt. I'll start with the positive: The French Toast is probably the best I've ever had! My wife ordered the French Toast, and after I tried a bite of hers, I ordered a piece. All of the ingredients were fresh; but the prices are a little higher than they ought to be. I ordered the Biscuits and Groovy. Biscuits is plural in the name. If there were 2 biscuits, they were tiny. If there was only 1 biscuit, maybe rename the item Biscuit & Groovy. In either case, there wasn't a lot of gravy. The wait wasn't bad. 30 minutes for a table for 2 on a Sunday in February. Can't imagine the wait in the Spring or Summer. We ordered 3 cocktails. Total for all three was $41. These were easily the most expensive 'mocktails' ever. None of them seemed to have much liquor. You aren't going to get lit at Yolk. All in all, 3.5 stars. But I wouldn't go back. And I definitely wouldn't wait more than 30 minutes to dine at Yolk. read more

Get there early or just expect to wait. Opened at 8 and by 830 had a waitlist. It's a small establishment. Good for 2 people. They can push tables together for larger group. Cozy spot. Had bar seating but that was not open to just sit at. Food was great! No real complaints. Bacon was over done and they replaced it for "wobbly bacon" Only place we found to have breakfast. All other spots are coffee and grab to go food. So this was nice to get in and sit. read more

We needed a good breakfast after a long weekend at the coast. Yolk offers just that, a delicious and fresh home-cooked brunch! We were excited to try what they had to offer. They get EXTREMELY busy. We waited over an hour for a table and were offered bar seating at around an hour wait. Normally we are fine with bar seating, however, the bar seats that they have are small wooden round seats with no backs - we just would not have been comfortable with that seating. The food came out quickly and was delicious, you can really taste that it's homemade! A bit on the pricier side ($5 for a small gravy), but I would go back especially with the limited offering at the coast. read more

We really liked this place. Small well lit cafe making fresh food. Expect a wait. Danita our server was great. We ordered the burger 5/5, avocado toast 5/5, and a Bloody Mary 4.5/5. Do not miss out. Get the fried potatoes. The seasoning is a secret recipe. Off the charts. read more

Such a great brunch spot and well worth the wait. It was a Monday and we waited for a 2 top for about 30 minutes. We e hung at a coffee shop across the street. The service is incredible and the food is absolutely the best along the coast! Worth the stop. Also, get a slice of the custard French toast! read more

Absolutely LOVE Yolk! Its food and service are great! Very popular, so a little loud, but don't let that deter you.

I will come back and update the review in a few weeks but so far the service was very friendly and fast. The wait will be long, we even ate before brunch while waiting. You can tell the owners care a lot and you notice it in local high quality ingredients. The portions were smaller than expected and too simple for me. Next time I'll try something more interesting. read more

Great choice for breakfast before a long hike. or cocktails after...Manzanita has also got great shops and bars.

This place is amazing! The food was superb, best huevos rancheros I've had with their own touch. Incredible French toast and delicious lemon ricotta pancakes. Well worth the short-ish wait. Staff are super nice and efficient. Place is clean and bright looking. Will absolutely be back next time I'm around. read more

We tried Yolk after reading a Yelp review, and we are so happy we did! There was a wait, but that's to be expected on a Sunday morning, and it was well worth it. We started with lattes from Manzanita News and Espresso across the street (that's another recommendation) which we drank while waiting and were allowed to bring in. Our server was very patient with us since it was our first visit. I finally decided on the special scramble of the day, and my wife had one slice of French toast and their house made fennel sausage. My sister and brother-in-law shared the biscuits with sausage and gravy. Everything was top quality and taste. We get to the coast about every other month, and we will absolutely be back. read more

So good we visited twice. We were staying nearby last weekend and dropped in for breakfast. We each got a version of the 2 egg breakfast and coffee. Everything tasted simply delicious. We loved every morsel, but the potatoes were next level. We ended up returning the following morning as well, where the hubby stuck with his previous selection but I decided to give the French toast a try (accompanied by the potatoes cuz l had no choice). Day two, everything was superb once again. The place isn't huge and seems to be a hot-spot for breakfast, so prep for a possible wait. Service was friendly, thorough, and fast. I also noticed it seemed like the staff enjoyed their jobs and was having a good time, which is always nice to see. We will definitely stop in anytime we are in the area! read more

Our party of (6) had an amazing meal this early afternoon at Yolk....it is an important achievement to have all members of the party satisfied with their meal. Super service started out with tasty and well chilled cocktails anchored by several glasses of Ninkasi IPA!!! Your best option is the corn beef hash..... Make sure to stop in several times during your next visit to Manzanita! read more

A nice, bright cafe to start your morning in Manzanita. Corned beef hash: 2.5/5 This was very corned beef-forward, which was unfortunately kind of dry and surprisingly not salty at all. I never add salt to my food at restaurants, and this dish was strangely bland. There were not very many potatoes either. Country scramble: 4/5 a standard scramble. The eggs were soft and light, the side potatoes were crisp and flavorful, and the biscuit had a nice tender crumb and the jam was fresh and yummy. French custard toast: 5/5 deliciously crispy crust and tender inside. Sweetness is controllable with maple syrup. Service is friendly, and food comes out fast. read more

My wife and I really loved this place for brunch! Building is really cute on the inside, and when you go, see if you can name all the dolls hanging from the bar area! All the staff were very friendly and it was cool seeing their interactions with not only the out of towners like ourselves, but with their local "regular" customers. My wife had the "Not you Popa's Plate and she said the eggs were cooked perfectly and the potatoes were very flavorful. I had the Chicken Sando and it was a great sandwich with a really yummy pesto aioli. Great stop for brunch when we visited Cannon Beach for the weekend! read more

Food, cocktails, and service was phenomenal. Went back the second day because the experience was so great.

The dining area is tiny and the wait can be long, but it's absolutely worth it. The friendly staff, starting with the owner who greets you at the door, set the tone from the start. The menu offers amazing, mostly locally-sourced food, done to perfection, along with featured specials. read more

Yolk - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Manzanita, Oregon

Goodness the service is marvelous and the food looks delicious, but it's a shame to say they have absolutely no flavor. Between the handfuls of dishes my friends and I ordered, we did a double take and the best we could say was the food was okay. If I had a recommendation I'd simply say... seasoning? Maybe... or at least salt. Everything was beautiful absolutely gorgeous presentation. However, if you're not very good adventurous, this place would be all start. The servers and greeters were the best in the west coast and will keep ya coming in because they're so lovely. Lots of good things to say, but the one reason I came in for, when passing through, made me feel more like I checked this place off of a list rather than Needing to go back. read more

Everything about our Yolk experience checked the happy boxes. We came in for a Monday early lunch right before the Summer season was starting, yet it was hopping at Yolk. We had a short wait since we declined bar seating, and Yolk has some comfy padded benches to take in the environment. The vibe is eclectic and fun, some of my favorite 80's music played just loud enough. We were brought some menus to look at while we waited. When we were seated, our server correctly assumed we would know our order. We are more mocktail folks, and the Spouse's Virgin Mary was delicious, I kept stealing sips. It also had a yummy garnish of cheese, salami, pickled veg and olive. I ordered the Veggie Hash without eggs and added a side of their braised kale for extra veggie fortification. It came with a pice of local sourdough toast (or biscuit, English muffin or fruit). This was the perfect antidote to the other beach weekend eating I had been doing! Everything was fresh and cooked perfectly. Manzanita feels less touristy than other parts of the coast, and a lot of locals seemed to be greeted by name at Yolk. If you also love places like this, I definitely recommend! read more

5 stars on 250+ reviews sets a very high bar for any restaurant. Yolk delivered and can go toe-to-toe with any top-tier brunch spot that I've been to in Portland. I try to avoid rating restaurants on service, which can vary, but our experience here was great. We were prepared for the wait, signed in 6th in line, went for a walk for 20 minutes and came back to a short wait. Our server was knowledgeable, friendly, prompt, and made great recommendations. Orange juice tasted fresh and not sugary. Coffee was wonderful. And the food delivered the promise Kids had a Papa's plate (biscuit, egg, potatoes) with bacon and an order of a single fat piece of French toast. It was collectively devoured. The Huevos Rancheros with Chorizo was our recommendation from Yelp and so fresh and tasty. We also got the veggie and corned beef hash and slightly preferred the veggie hash, but slightly preferred the veggies. So top marks on all aspects of our brunch. This place is worth driving to from anywhere in the area! read more

Seriously...flavor, culinary art and friendliness all in one. The custard French toast, something to write home about. Breakfast cocktails that are not too sweet....weekend specials that never disappoint. Well worth the wait. They will take your number and call you, so you should check in and then go for a stroll. We love sitting at the kitchen bar/table to try to glean some cooking tips or at the bar. Always good to learn how to make a proper cocktail. Nothing compares to Yolk on the coast. read more

Cockadoodle do! Yes YOLK is no joke! Located on the main avenue in sleepy Manzanita, Yolk broke all the question marks on our minds of places to eat brunch on the Coast. Believe or not we came all the way here from Gearhart riding the atMospheric river. Torrential rains didn't keep us away from this breakfast feast. The rain helped tamper down the crowds so our wait was about 15 minutes. Just enough time to peruse the specials listed in the wall. Yolk has been around a long time and it shows. By that I mean it is a well groomed humming brunch machine. No reservations as this place doesn't need them. I think there is outdoor and patio seating but that was a definite no go today.. Considering" how busy they were, and I mean busseling, the staff was friendly and professional. Very quick to serve us and the order cam up li Kitty spit. My friend and I shared the lemon pancakes Infused with marionberries and topped with a light dusting of powder sugar with a warm maple syrup accompanying them. We also shared the huevos rancheros with chorizo added. Crazy savory. Excellent choices without too huge a serving which you usually get at brunch. That being said there were enough of the huge pancakes for my girlfriend to take some leftovers to her hubby. read more

We put our name down and waited about 20 minutes for a table on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend. It was busy, but they were turning over tables quickly. I loved the vibe of this place - the people were friendly, it was quaint, the food was delicious, and the service was quick. We didn't feel rushed, either. It was so homey inside, and there was an open kitchen as well - I love watching an open kitchen! This was truly one of my favorite breakfasts I've ever had. I got their veggie hash, which had an assortment of veggies, an egg, fresh basil, amazing seasonings, and their breakfast potatoes and it came with your choice of fruit or bread. The bread is made in house, and the fruit salad was delicious and so fresh - made with melons and lemon and honey and basil. They had two different mimosa specials on the menu - black cherry and mango. We got one of each to share and they were both delicious. Definitely a must-try if you're in Manzanita. If you can pick one place to visit during your stay, pick Yolk! read more

Very nice place, with great food I had the Benny, Eggs Benedict, and my wife had country scramble. Food was delicious. If you go, make sure to allow for enough time the wait is somewhat long. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because they have a bar and things get pretty loud, which isn't great for breakfast place in my opinion. read more

What a great place to eat while at the coast. Yolk menu has a little bit of everything and it's all so good. The service is prompt, friendly and makes you feel welcomed. We sat at the counter which looks into the kitchen and able to talk with one of the cooks while watching the show of them putting the food out. read more

Great Father's Day breakfast! The wait was 45 minutes, but well worth it. While you wait, go grab a coffee across the street at Manzanita News and Espresso, a good cup of coffee with some shopping options as well. Service at Yolk was quick and attentive. I ordered off the menu and had poached eggs and a sausage patty. It was surprisingly affordable, $32 for breakfast for two, not bad. The ambiance was vibrant and lively with a mix of travelers and locals. I could tell this was the place for breakfast in town. An easy 5 stars to Yolk. We will be back for sure! read more

This place is very popular and I'd heard good things about it. It was buzzing and fun. I went by myself today and waited a little bit. I was sat at the bar. Everyone was very friendly. I ordered a whiskey sour but the bartender said they were out of cherries. Okay, no big deal. She made me a mango orange mimosa. I ordered the eggs Benedict and a few minutes later she said they were out of ham, so I got bacon instead. I was a little annoyed but it's not her fault. It came out lightening fast, and the potatoes were undercooked and over seasoned. The hollandaise was delicious, but that bacon just wasn't right (and there wasn't much of it). It was then that I was disappointed. I told another server about the potatoes after she asked if I wanted a box. Then when my bill came, my mimosa wasn't on there. I told a third server who thanked me for my honesty and paid the bill. Maybe they tried to comp me for the mistake, but I'd rather be told that than assume it. It was an off day for them I'm sure, but unfortunately I'm moving and won't be back. read more
