Manzanita News features Starbuck's coffee, Temptations, pastries, and lots of good magazines and newspapers. Next, look for the Wave up on Highway 101. It's good old-fashioned food, for breakfast, lunch or dinner. At Bayside Gardens you can get praiseworthy prime rib and enjoy the friendly bar. Just beyond, on the right, breakfast is served all day at the Bunkhouse.
Some folks eat there so regularly they have their own coffee mugs.
Then on to Nehalem where it's imperative to stop at Hill House for friendly breakfasts or sunny lunches in the back garden. Good coffee, good everything. And if you liked that, you'll want to try the Nehalem Dock for dinner, on the bank of the Nehalem River. They specialize in fresh seafood and have a modest bar. If you come by boat you can tie up at the public dock, alongside.
