Three Capes Loop
The drive and stops along the Three Capes Loop and accompanying very short walks offer some of the most breathtaking views I have ever seen. I'm not a spiritual person, but

I had the opportunity to take a flight above the coast line and took several pictures. We circled the Tillamook’s Three Capes and then flew over the downtown Tillamook before landing.

You can see the coast line and Cape Meares in the shots in this album of pictures I took that day.

Pelican Pub in Pacific City
This is a friendly, pretty, decent quality brew pub with an amazing location. I love their microbrews and the fish and chips. The other food there is decent, but to me, never quite as satisfying as cold beer and hot fish and chips.

Here are some pictures I took at the beach adjacent to the Pelican Pub.

The Riverhouse in Pacific City
The Riverhouse is famous for their bluecheese dressing - which is bottled in sold in stores around the Northwest. It is the best blue cheese I have ever had - and possibly the best salad dressing. But it is also a great place to get a meal with a view of the Nehalem river. Chuck and I have found memories of the $12 sandwich (1992 prices) I had to have on our otherwise disastrous day in Pacific City on our honeymoon.

Bring some cash. They don't let you tip on your CC - and you feel like a complete cheapskate if you have to zero tip because of this.

The Schooner on Netarts Bay
We like the wood oven fired pizza - and they also make some great soups. It is right on the bay - so hitting it around sunset makes for a special meal.

Pirates Cove in Garabaldi
Good seafood, good service, great view. But very weird ambiance. Last time I was there - enjoying a ribeye topped with crab and shrimp holondaise - and struck by the incredible view - I couldn't get over the fact that I was sitting in a vinyl booth that reminded me of Dennys. Likely to face a long wait on a weekend night. You can pass it at the Garibaldi Pub just down 101.

Tillamook County Creamory - The Cheese Factory
Please don't leave Tillamook without getting an ice cream cone at the Cheese Factory!

The Blue Heron
Great for wine tasting and buying some wonderful cheese - lunch in the deli.

Oceanside Inn
Chuck and I honeymooned here - this is lovely, quaint and the window rooms have wonderful views.
