If you like whiskey, Alchemy Lounge is a treat. If, as with my wife you don't go near the stuff -…read moreit's still a great place for cocktails and tasty eats. I have a few bottles of "the good stuff" stashed around my house that I always say I'll open during a special occasion - which never seems to arrive . It so happens that Alchemy has an extensive whiskey list which included a couple of my "reserve" bottles. This was the perfect opportunity for me to taste them. I had a flight of three delicious bourbon pours, THEN was told about a special rye whiskey which, well, I had to try as well. So much fun, I enjoyed each of my pours at a cost that didn't break my piggy bank. Meanwhile, my wife loved her mango margarita. We also had the ceviche and the smoked crab dip - the crab dish was especially good. All in all, a memorable evening. Recommended!

While in cannon beach, we stayed at the hotel that was shared with this restaurant and I read great…read morereviews. Well.... The menu doesn't match the one online but I still wanted to give it a shot. My husband got the burger and there is no other option than the side salad for it-- why no fries or something? Also when my husband ordered the burger the waitress said how would he like it cooked- he said medium. She says good that's usually how the cook does it anyways. It came out cooked all the way through. We were the only two people there. The board was good, drinks were very very mid. The restaurant itself has great potential but honestly the menu doesn't match and I felt 80$ didn't justify our dinner.

WARNING‼‼‼ Now that…read moreI have your attention, let me tell you about this place. I almost thought I teleported to Texas for a second. This smokehouse in the Oregon coast is on to something. Pulled pork, brisket TENDER & JUICY. I can't even describe how I had flashbacks to my time in Texas. I am now in a food coma and on my way to take a 8 hour power nap. If you are ever at Cannon Beach, and do not feel like eating fish and chips, please come here and do your taste buds a favor.

It was my first time having pork rinds freshly made instead of out of a bag, and I'll need to find where I can get this more often!! The Cubano was solid. The bread was soft, the meat was tender, a little dry, and the pickles added a nice bright, acidic bite. The sauce was good too. Unfortunately, the fries were insanely salty. We couldn't eat them at all, which was disappointing since they're almost a $4 upcharge! The restaurant itself is pretty small, so I'd recommend coming when they open. Otherwise, I could see there being a wait. They only have one cook, so the food can take some time as well, but they have signs letting you know upfront, which I appreciated. There was only 1 waiter, but were friendly and attentive throughout.

The restaurant theme was a old rusty hardware store with eclectic decor. I recommend getting the sandwiches here as all the ones we tried were superb. We especially enjoyed the fish sandwich.

Love to come back here again.

Where else can you admire power tools while crushing a cold one? The pretzel? Absolute standout. The kind that makes you consider ordering a second "for the table" (it's for you). Service was on point and quick, friendly, and clearly used to people being slightly confused but very happy. My wife ordered a Bloody Mary and loved it !!! This place is so unique I'll be talking about it forever... and honestly, I already want to go back. Might need a screwdriver next time... or just another beer.

My husband and I came there for our anniversary and were very disappointed. Positives: Amazing view! Delicious cocktails, and great service. My salmon was cooked perfectly. Negatives: Quality of food. My cilantro rice was absolute mush. I am not sure how it left the kitchen. My husband's seafood boil was overcooked: crab was dry, almost everything overcooked even corn. For $65 for the bake expected better. The bread was dry and hard. I have loved this restaurant for awhile so it makes me sad to write this review. I paid for an expensive anniversary dinner and got a basic meal that was overall very poor quality. I am not sure if I will return.
