One of the best parts about staying on the Central Oregon Coast is starting the day’s coastal adventures by exploring local eateries — and frequently the best part of THAT experience is breakfast! Honor your inner Hobbit by having breakfast (or even second breakfast?!) at one or more of our favorite local spots:
Lincoln City

- Nelscott Breakfast House This cozy spot in Lincoln City’s Nelscott area has a stacked breakfast menu, a kids’ menu AND a K-9 menu (that’s right, for the doggos!) Dine steps away from shopping and a nearby beach access so you can fuel up and hit the ground running. Open Wednesday through Monday from 7:30am to 2pm. Closed Tuesdays.
