Dining

For your dining pleasure, there is much to sample in lovely Astoria -- especially if you like seafood!  Yum.

Coffee

If you like Starbucks, there is only one nearby and that's right across the bridge into Warrenton.  They serve Starbucks coffee in the Safeway (on the East side of town), but the Safeway servers may be slow in trying to figure out exactly what you may be ordering.  The diner Andrew & Steve's makes a good cup o' Joe, according to Onnie.  But there are others places to visit get your caffeine on.

Onnie and I like Andrew & Steve's, especially for breakfast.  It's a small diner, but the food and coffee are good, and it's all quite reasonable.  The Pig n' Pancake has been described as an overpriced Denny's with bad service.  The Wet Dog Cafe & Brew Pub is tasty, with lots of fish on the menu.  For Mexican food, Onnie recommends Plaza Jalisco.  The Home Bakery is a family favorite for pasteries -- you'll find it on the East side of town heading out Rt. 30 towards Portland.  It's a Finnish bakery most beloved by the Granados family.  Tasty turnovers and danishes!

Drinks

Visit the same link above for restaurants.  The Elliott Hotel has a lovely European-feel wine bar in the basement (below the sidewalk), which you can get to from outside the hotel, in front of the florist.  I'll check with them to see if they are open to the public and what hours.  As we won't be serving alcohol at the reception, I will try to post options for our guests.   Stay tuned!
