Had breakfast at Chestnut Cottage Restaurant and it ended up being one of my favorite stops of the trip. The coffee was unbelievably smooth--easily the best I had the entire time. The house lemonade was also top tier, which I didn't expect but definitely appreciated. Service was quick, and everyone working there was genuinely friendly without it feeling forced. The interior is simple and delicate, which made it feel calm and comfortable. Breakfast itself is pretty straightforward, but honestly... breakfast is breakfast. It was exactly what I wanted in that moment, and the overall experience is what made it stand out. Would absolutely come back. read more

I've read the glowing reviews, and I'm offering a contrasting opinion. Today, I ordered a scramble made with egg whites and a Diet Pepsi (Diet Coke is unavailable here). They had to change the syrup for my soda, which took almost 15 minutes. When my soda arrived, it wasn't diet but the sugared version. No attempt made to fix this. When my meal arrived, the scramble ordered with egg whites only had bits of egg shell. I'm not sure how they got there, but it was I little like Russian Roulette as every third bit or so contained a tiny little egg shell piece. It was off putting. The potato hash accompanying the egg shell scramble was too greasy to have. Combine this food with a slightly combative server and you get a terrible and, in my case, unforgivable experience. Zero things went well and all of them went poorly. Breakfast for 2 was 60 bucks plus tip, and it's money I've invested in learning how much I do not care for Chestnut Cottage. 0/5, do not recommend read more

This is a charming breakfast spot that feels like your granny's kitchen. The chicken fried steak and chicken and waffles were delicious! THE SCONES! You really must have one while you are there. Most cute is that they have a doggie menu. The "Barkuterie Plate" had frozen treats, cookies, blueberries and frozen carrots. Our dogs enjoyed. :-) read more

This is the CUTEST brunch place ever I love it SO much. The whole ambiance of the entire restaurant was just so perfect. Cozy cottage vibes all the way!! They also had a bunch of plushies and trinkets in the front that you could browse through while waiting for a seat. We came as a party of 4 on a Sunday morning and got seated within 20minutes. Now for the food. DELICIOUS. The portions were pretty large and the lattes we got were incredible (I mean just look at all that whipped cream). We came here a month ago and I still think about it sometimes. 10/10 will come back here if we are ever in Port Angeles again. read more

Wow, this was the best breakfast I've ever had in Washington! Portions were HUGE! We got the breakfast tacos, cottage wrap, mimosa flight, mocha and cinnamon roll to split. The cinnamon roll was the best I've ever had in my life! We came at prime Brunch time on a Sunday, and had about a ~15 minute wait. Food comes fast! read more

Popular breakfast/brunch spot in Port Angeles. I thought it was a decent experience but service was definitely slow. Don't expect this to be a quick meal especially during peak weekend times. My group of 4 came by for brunch Saturday morning around 11 am and it was hopping. Probably waited ~20 minutes or so for a table. While we were waiting, we had already perused the menu and knew what we wanted to get. However, after getting seated, it took us a while to get our server's attention to place our orders. It was a busy time for them, and they just didn't have enough workers on the floor. Everyone was running around looking super busy. I had a hard time deciding what I wanted to order as most of the options weren't super appealing to me (a lot of egg scrambles and omelets which I feel meh about). I ended up going for the bacon and brie scramble for $20.99. The unique thing about Chestnut Cottage is that with every breakfast entree, you can choose your choice of pastry. They offer a good variety of options, like muffins, coffee cake, scones, etc. After hearing all the daily flavors for each from our server, I went with the cherry strudel. The pastries came out first. It was nice to have something to munch on while we waited for our food. Each of my friends ordered a different pastry so I got to try a bit of everything. My favorite was my own - the strudel - as it came out warm, but the coffee cake was good as well, super light and fluffy. I personally thought the muffin and scone were just okay. Our mains came out after another 20 minutes. My scramble was good, but a scramble is a scramble so it didn't really wow me. I also enjoyed the hash browns on the side which were very crispy. Weirdly, one of my friend's dishes, the pulled pork lodge, was served without hollandaise sauce. One of the main reasons she ordered it was because she wanted the sauce, so it was disappointing to see that it was missed. It took a while for us to call our server over and then another while for them to bring out the dish with the sauce on top. Like I said, service is VERY slow here. Between the mains and the pastry, portions are huge. Most of my friends weren't able to finish their food and packed the leftovers to go for later. We were probably here for close to 2 hours from start to finish, from the waiting to leaving after paying the check. I know Chestnut Cottage is a super popular spot for brunch in Port Angeles, but personally I fail to see the appeal. read more

Bomb breakfast! Everything we ordered was so tasty and generous portion! Especially love the coffee cake (huge slice) and my husband had country fried steak said it was the best one he had in a while. Our waitress was super lovely and kind as well. She made sure to double check my coffee cake had no coffee (I know I just learned today too!) Will definitely visit again next time we are in Port Angeles. read more

Very delicious baked goods. It was the softest and warmest cinnamon roll. Would love to go back again

After being sat at a table, just outside of the kitchen door it took almost ten minutes to get a glass of water. Also, the waitress was delightful. The food itself was less than exceptional.. the barbecue bacon burger almost no barbecue sauce on it and the best part of that meal were the onion rings. The chicken sandwich had no flavor and was actually quite wet.To include the bun, it sat on. This scone, however, was warm and the jam that came with it was heaven. read more

We went here while visiting Port Angeles and Olympic National Park. This is a busy, homey restaurant vibe. We really enjoyed the Bloody Mary, which came with a piece of bacon. We also liked the mimosa flight, which had 4 different flavors. By far the most liked item was the house made cinnamon roll. It was so freshly baked and fluffy, soaked in a perfect syrup. It was great because the cinnamon roll was one of the choices for sides included in main dishes. The egg scrambles were delicious as well; we asked for a side of their chipotle hollandaise to add on top, which we highly recommend!! They also can make the crème brûlée French toast gluten free. read more

A spot with a classic cozy breakfast feel. Nothing sparkly, but great basics with a family vibe. We had fine options as vegetarians and left full and content! But definitely leaned on the bland side of things, thankfully there were all the hot sauces, s&p, and ketchup an eater could need. Sweet servers make it feel like home. read more

Delicious food, huge portions, quick and very friendly service even during a surprisingly busy Monday morning. Thanks!

I came back to this spot for this scone! It's served warmed with a side of butter and a jelly. We got the quiche, but it seems a bit lackluster, bland. More seasoning and more veggies/cheese in a quiche would've made it better. Service was fast. Go try to the pastries !!! read more

We had breakfast one morning at Chestnut Cottage during our short stay in Port Angeles. Its as a very charming restaurant and we enjoyed our dining experience there. The service was very friendly. Given the weather was mild, we opted to sit outside. I ordered the bacon and brie scramble and hubby ordered the pepperjoack lodge. My scramble was really delicious. Hubby thought his could use a bit more flavor, but overall, it was still very good. read more

Stopped in for breakfast on a holiday Monday for breakfast and there was a bit of a wait around 9:45. Portions are extremely generous and we definitely couldn't finish it all. The Traditional Breakfast was great! I opted for pancakes instead of toast. They were a little dry and I didn't love them. My partner got the Montrachet Scramble and really enjoyed it. read more

This place was so good, I came here two days in a row. I think the coffee was what mostly brought me back. I was looking forward to a nice warm cup of joe and Chestnut Cottage delivered. Plenty of seating inside and there's a cute little patio where you can bring the doggies as well. The service was great both visits. Everyone had a smile on their face and anyone was willing to help you out. The waitress was very attentive as well though. I ordered the blueberry lemon curd French toast the first day and then the country fried steak the next day. Both were outstanding. The French toast had a nice rich lemon flavor to it, served with a bit of whip cream and a side of syrup. The country fried steak had to have been the best I've ever had. The gravy was so flavorful. Not too salty either. Definitely going to come back here if I ever make my way to Port Angeles in the future. read more

OMG, the creme brûlée French toast! I had read about this place while figuring out what to do about breakfast while traveling--we were taking the morning ferry from Port Angeles to Victoria and were able to pop in at the Chestnut Cottage for a scrumptious breakfast to send us on our way. It did not disappoint. The French toast was simply decadent. Other family members ordered eggs and pancakes--also delicious. In true Washingtonian coffee culture, excellent, flavorful coffee. I wish I lived closer--have thought of that French toast often! ; ) read more

Chestnut Cottage is a treat! We visit whenever we are in town, and have never been disappointed. The place is delicious, and service is good, so plan ahead! You may have a bit of a wait if you come on a weekend morning, but don't give up! It's worth the wait. Enjoy perusing the cute little books and stuffed animals for sale in the waiting area- there's always something interesting there. On your way to your table, peek at the lovely decor on the walls, and spy the jam they have for sale. When you get your menu, you'll have a dilemma ahead of you. It's always difficult to decide what to order because they always have decadent french toast options, but their biscuits and gravy are also tasty. If you have children, they will love the options on the kid's menu. The bear pancake is always a bit hit in our family. 5/5 Highly recommend! read more

Good food and nice size portions. best cinnamon rolls ever. Good customer service.

This place was all around amazing. The exterior is very beautiful and well-kept, the service was prompt and the staff are friendly, and the interior was clean and beautifully decorated. The food was amazing. The portions were generous and we ate to the point of almost having to roll each other out of the establishment. We're already talking about when we can come back! Update: we came back two days later for lunch. I got the chicken and Brie panini and my boyfriend got the crispy chicken sandwich. To quote him "this place doesn't miss, does it?" read more

Very homey boutique restaurant! Great food & service! The French toast & Eggs Benedict were fabulous!

One of my favorite local places to get breakfast and brunch with friends at. They are definitely busy on the weekends, so make sure to call ahead to find out the wait time. They are great at accommodating large groups. I highly recommend getting any of their menu options that gives you a bakery item with your entrée, especially since you can get their cinnamon roll, which is so delicious! I've never had a bad dish from here. Sometimes service can be hit or miss, especially when it's busy, but it is worth the wait. read more

I read reviews on this place and really wanted to try it while I was in town. This place by far exceeded my expectations. First off, they had huge portions, we were full for most of the day! I couldn't even finish my breakfast. The bloody Mary's were all made from a house recipe and were full of yummy veggies! We sat outside on the cute patio and it was just lovely!! I will definitely be returning to this cute brunch spot again! Our server was also so nice and helpful. read more

Food: Good quality, adequate portions, and great taste. Service: Slow at first as other tables were served before we were approached by the waitress. When we ordered, all our quirks were addressed satisfactorily and the food arrived in a reasonable amount of time. Ambiance: Quaint little local eatery with the cottage feel for such a large space. Improvements: I ordered a cinnamon roll and while it was very tasty, I would have preferred that it be served warm in order to enhance the experience. In fact, all the early morning fresh baked goods should be warmed before serving. That would make this rating five stars! read more

Very good breakfast on a Sunday morning. Short wait (10-ish minutes) for 3 of us. This day they were only serving breakfast, but that was fine by us. The Jenn's Hawaiian Mimosa was awesome! For food, we ordered the quiche, the Northwest scramble, and a traditional breakfast (bacon, eggs over easy, hashbrowns, and substituted pancakes). Hashbrowns were perfectly cooked. Eggs and bacon came exactly as ordered. With the other two breakfasts, we chose bakery items instead of the toast. One gluten-free pumpkin bread and one lemon blueberry scone. Both absolutely delicious, served warm with a side of butter. Cozy breakfast/brunch spot with very friendly service. There was a mix of large groups to solo diners. Very accommodating to all. read more

If you are a fan of Oak Table, you'll probably fancy Chestnut Cottage. This place is delicious and portions are plentiful. The pancakes can be a bit on the dry side, but topped with generous amounts of butter and syrup, and you're rolling now.

We stopped here after hiking Hurricane Ridge, since some of us wanted breakfast and some wanted lunch! This place has a lot of charm, friendly staff, and lots of parking spaces around the restaurant. It was busy when we arrived, but we were seated quickly. We ordered Belgian waffles with apples and whipped cream. The waffle was fluffy and the apples were great! In hindsight, the warm apples kind of made the waffle a little soggy. The lemon blueberry scone was delicious! I ordered an omelette with hash browns. The omelette came out more deconstructed than a folded over omelette, which I didn't mind. It was yummy and lots of bacon mixed in! My hash browns were way too crispy, like it was basically burnt. The person I was with ordered a chicken sandwich, but not everything was even in each half of the sandwich. All in all, a place that left us satisfied after our hike and had some great items. read more
