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.
