While driving along the Oregon Coast, which reminded me so much of my hometown scenery, I decided this was a place we absolutely had to stop—and I’m so glad we did. Just as I imagined, the food was delicious and full of the warmth and care of a small-town kitchen.
Traveling with three children and bringing them into a restaurant is never easy, but the staff went out of their way to make special bear-face pancakes just for them. The kids were so excited, repeating “It’s so good!” again and again. My wife and I also enjoyed chatting with the waitresses, which made the experience feel incredibly homey and welcoming.
It was a truly wonderful breakfast in a very friendly, family-oriented atmosphere. Whenever we drive the Oregon Coast again, this is definitely a place we’ll stop by. Thank you so much.

The food was AMAZING!! I highly recommend their homemade biscuits because they are sooo soft and good! The hashbrowns were so crispy. The hamburger was really tasty and soft and the eggs as well! The service was so quick, was seated immediately. The environment is so nice and friendly! I love the staff and service. I highly recommend this place to check out. Price is very good with the quality of food!

Reuben meat was Safeway quality, and $18. I believe they serve fresh cut fries, but they weren’t seasoned at all, a bit chalky and underdone. Why bother fresh cutting fries if you don’t cook or season them properly?
What takes the cake is $18 is the same price Garibaldi Portside Bistro charges for their Reuben.
Tiny spot attached to a convenience store. Clientele geriatric, cheap, just there for the least expensive breakfast option.

Stopped here yesterday as we were heading up the coast. So glad we waited for a table. The place is small and only open until 2:00pm. The staff is very friendly and inviting. We asked what the local favorites are, and boy was I happy with the answer. She said the chicken fried steak and cinnamon rolls are a big hit. Well, she had me at chicken fried steak. It was perfectly cooked how it is supposed to be, not a frozen hockey puck dropped in the deep fryer, but actually breaded and grilled on the flat top. It was absolutely delicious along with the hashbrowns and gray. The rest of the family tried other items including a light and fluffy strawberry pancake, once again fantastic tasting, a huge club sandwich and last but not least a hand breaded chicken sandwich that my very picky son tasted and stated “This is the best tasting chicken sandwich I had”. He even liked it better that other nationwide famous chicken place. The fries were incredibly tasty as well. The chef is amazing, cranking out so much delicious food in such a small kitchen. We took a cinnamon roll home and had it this morning with our coffee, it was light and very tasty, wish we got two. Give this place a try, it is worth it, we will definitely be back.

Stopped here on a whim, waited patiently along with the locals. I was kinda in the doghouse because I picked the place. But If the locals are waiting you know it’s good. I ordered an oyster dish that I really enjoyed and the crab cake benedict was also good. The coffee is good and hot. I was redeemed. Stop at Downie’s when you’re in Bay City, it’s worth the wait.

I wanted to try breakfast at
this small cafe on my way back
to Portland.
It was busy, and I sat at the
small counter and was moved
to a table a short time later.
I ordered two pancakes, two
eggs, and two sausage
patties after a long wait.
The menu offers omelets,
French Toast, Ground Round
Steak, and much more.
I received my order on two
plates in about ten minutes
with no problems.
The pancakes were huge
with good taste and were
fluffy.
The eggs and sausage patties
were both good and not overcooked.
The cafe has a lunch menu
with homemade pies and cinnamon rolls.
Located in Bay City on 5th
Street, just off Hwy 101 and
next to the mini-mart.
You might have a long wait
for a table and cash is the only
payment accepted.
A nice to stop for breakfast
on the Oregon Coast with
good food, friendly service,
a menu with a number of options for breakfast and
lunch with a homey small
town vibe.

I enjoy the french toast and bacon I get here frequently. This time I had a cinnamon roll bigger than my head. Always excellent service. Sometimes it’s hard to get seating because its full, come find out why!
