The Pelican Pub and Brewery in Pacific City

(Pacific City, Oregon) - Dining along the Three Capes Loop means jaw-dropping views in little towns like Neskowin, Pacific City, Netarts and Oceanside. The restaurants here are few and far between, and merely a handful, but their menus boast a wide variety of culinary possibilities. One is actually a tiny B&B that serves up some awe-inspiring grub for guests, while others are legendary beachfront eateries that can even come with famed microbrews.

You’ll find them in diverse little burghs like Pacific City, Oceanside, Tillamook Bay and even Rockaway Beach, and some are often known for their family atmospheres as well as accommodating grown ups in happy ways.

Pelican Pub & Brewery. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and microbrews – all in a family restaurant with an amazing ocean view. It all begins with breakfast (generally around $10), that includes a large menu of egg concoctions, omelets, pancakes and surprises like breakfast burritos and benedict a la Florentine. Lunch ($9 - $11) has bundles of salads, seafood, chowder, sandwiches, fish and chips, and interesting morsels like wings, calamari, bangers and mash and even shark. Plenty of pizzas dominate. Amidst the usual toppings you can find chicken, spinach or even a barbecue sauce. Calzones as well. Dinner ($10 - $20) brings a fancier slant to the gourmet vibe, including salmon, beef brisket, prime rib, beef medallions, chicken and other seafood specialties dishes. Many pastas and a kids menu rounds out the culinary action. 33180 Cape Kiwanda Drive.

Lovely, four-course gourmet breakfasts are served in the morning. A continental breakfast is also available. For the romancers, there’s a special cheese fondue for two available. It contains cheese fondue, cubed artisan bread from a local bakery and sliced Oregon apples ($35). Relaxation and romance are the keys at this cozy B&B secret, hidden away in a country setting, along the Three Capes Scenic Loop, approximately one mile from the ocean and just ten minutes from Pacific City.

Pelican Tillamook Tap Room. Inside a soaring family-friendly facility, you are dining with a view of the tap room, where much of the Pelican Brewery action happens. Deep in the heart of inland Highway 101 and the area's green, rolling hills, about 12 miles from the beaches. Indulge in a more downhome version of the Pelican's favorite cuisine, with specialties for kids as well. Start with appetizers like fries, a hummus based on their beer that comes veggies and chips, oyster shooters or fried cheese curds. Big sandwiches and burgers on tap such as various burgers, including one very spicy one with chipotle and fried jalapenos. Take to the ocean with the oyster basket (local Netarts oysters) or their famed fish and chips. A scrumptious Reuben is literally piled high with corned beef, while the elk burger will intrigue you. 1708 First Street. Tillamook, Oregon. 503-842-7007. Website here
