We had high hopes for this restaurant, but the food was rather bland. It was alright - not fantastic. The view from the tables was much better than the food.

We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day in May so sat on the outdoor deck with a view of the ocean. What a great lunch! My wife had the halibut, which she said was excellent. I had several small plates, including clam chowder, caesar salad, and crab cakes; all of which were also excellent. Our waiter Nick was great...very... More

We stayed at the Surfsand Resort next door and this was a few steps away. Food was great and they offered free breakfast and lunch for the kids if you were staying at the hotel. The service was great, although they turned us away because we didn't have reservations one night. Fish and chips were great!

The view was fabulous. It was cloudy so we did not get a sunset, but this would be the place to go for a romantic sunset dinner.

My husband and I ate breakfast here during our three day weekend getaway. Food: We ate the biscuits and gravy, hazelnut waffles and 2 kinds of eggs benedict. The food was delicious, but not amazing. I would come back. Setting: We sat outside for both of our meals. If the weather is nice, I definitely recommend sitting on the patio... More

Every time I am in Cannon Beach, I find time to have a meal at this restaurant, which overlooks iconic Haystack Rock. I like the ambiance in this restaurant, too. At first glance, it appears to be very casual, but the service and the waitstaff make this really somewhat upscale. Everything on the menu is well prepared and thought out,... More

We enjoyed a delicious lunch of clam chowder with sandwiches. The view of Haystack was perfect and the service was good. I had a razor clam club, my first razor clam ever. I found it slightly sweet and very tasty. Would go back and sit outside if the weather was warmer.
