(Manzanita, Oregon) - Oregon's north coast presents some of the best restaurants and dining possibilities along the entire shoreline. It's here where you’ll find long-standing gems that seem timeless and classic, yet often cutting-edge in their culinary fireworks.

It's no secret that in the Nehalem Bay area, you have to be among the best to remain in business during those often-lonely winter months where tourists can be few and far between. So those that have weathered the years do so because they are exceptional, competing with the best Portland can provide, and thus often thrive during the off-seasons.

Nehalem Bay consists of the towns of Wheeler, Nehalem and Manzanita, with Rockaway Beach on the outskirts. A 15-minute drive from Manzanita will land you in Cannon Beach, where numerous scrumptious possibilities reside, as well as down south just beyond Tillamook Bay.

There are also options here to order food online while on the Oregon coast.

MacGregor's A Whiskey Bar, Manzanita, is an upscale, intimate cocktail lounge in the heart of Manzanita, Oregon. Their mixologists can whip up anything you desire, though the focus is obviously on whiskey - MacGregor's has over 200 bottles of brown liquor. Reading and drinking have always gone hand-in-hand, so it only made sense for literary agent Chip MacGregor and writer Holly Lorincz-MacGregor to open the bar three years ago; Chip will happily talk to customers about the amazing top shelf. They also offer great food, beer, wine, and a variety of liquors, starting at moderate prices. If you’re in the mood for a tasting adventure, they have pre-set and custom flights available, like the Oregon Bourbon flight or the Japanese Whisky flight, or maybe a tequila or rum flight. Coastal nights and MacGregor's front porch firepits make for the perfect setting when you’re in the mood for a wee dram. 387 Laneda Avenue. 503-368-2447. Website here.


San Dune Pub. With a historical, even slight maritime vibe, the San Dune Pub is a classy staple among locals, regulars and tourists alike. There is nothing typical about this place, it's all about the food. Known for their exceptional burgers, they create a menu that suites every palate. Homemade salad dressings, sauces, and desserts are amazing. Appetizers in the $3 - $9 range include hummus as well as the usual. Other highlights: Fresh Willapa Bay Oysters and Seafood Bisque (weekends only). Plenty of burgers in varied incarnations like chili, bacon, cheese, teriyaki, BBQ, chipotle, veggie or chicken; lots of seafood possibilities. Wraps and ciabatta sandwiches around $8 include chicken, Caesar, pesto, turkey and bacon/swiss, among others. Soups and salads abound. Less than ten minutes from the surfing paradise of Short Sands; legendary live music hotspot. 17 beers, large wine selection, full service bar. 127 Laneda Ave., Manzanita, Oregon. 503-368-5080. www.sandunepub.com (burgers, seafood, chicken, tacos, lunch, dinner)

Family dining Cannon Beach, pizza Cannon BeachCannon Beach Fultano's Pizza. Serious gourmet Italian at a family price. They deliver to local hotels, and they feature slices for lunch. Also you can order online. There's a special thin crust recipe that's especially tasty, crunchy and yet still tender in a way that manages to combine both those latter qualities seamlessly. Gourmet varieties like the Margherita (garlic and herb olive oil, three cheeses, red onion and more), a Greek-themed specialty, a Goat Cheese pizza, and specialties with Teriyaki Chicken, Linguica, BBQ Chicken and a variety of seafood selections. One item features a distinctive sausage with mashed grapes for the sauce, providing a subtle, sweet tang. The sausage is spicy and zippy, making a nice balance to the slight sweetness. One must-try is their pasta (about $10). They have a homemade tomato sauce that stacks up against anything Europe could dish out. 200 N. Hemlock and Second Street, Cannon Beach Oregon.. www.CBfultanos.com (503) 436-9717. Family dining Cannon Beach, pizza
