If you happen to be out at the Oregon Coast, whether passing through or staying at a rental, I have a few highlights from my own trip and the Lincoln City Oregon food I really enjoyed. My visit was short, but these 3 stops really stood out and I would 10/10 visit and order again. If you are traveling, stay safe, comply with whatever Covid-19 protocols the city or businesses have in place, and visit as many local businesses as you can along the way. They can use your support.

Dory Cove Restaurant

Dory Cove Restaurant is a local institution. The current location that you can find this homey restaurant has been there since 2017, but it is the new location that carries on the more then 40 year tradition and recipes of the original location that used to be on the other side of town but which was a victim of an unfortunate fire. Dory Cove is open 7 days a week and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner so is perfect for any day, any time eating. You may find yourself juggling the open days and times of other eateries, so knowing Dory Cove is a pretty safe bet is good to know. They have seafood omelets and egg benedict plates (woo hoo that crab benedict…) at breakfast, as well as a thick yet creamy and chunky clam chowder. Their specialty entrees are well-sized: just look at this Parmesan crusted 8 ounce halibut with parmesan cream sauce, garlic mashed potatoes, sautéed vegetables, and parmesan garlic bread. Grabbing this takeout to eat at your rental with a nice bottle of wine while overlooking the ocean is so luxe.
