On our last night in Rockaway Beach, my wife and I were looking for a new place to eat. We…read moreinitially went to one place in Garibaldi, but it was an hour wait, no bar, and too many kids. This was not the environment we were looking for. We went back to the car and drove to Kelley's Place. This dive bar is in the middle of nowhere, but I'm glad we found it. Upon walking inside, we felt like we were at home. Though we love going to a high-end restaurant, we come from a small down and really enjoy the dive bars, especially when you get a friendly bartender, good drinks, and some good food. Kelley's had all of that. I went with the Cod Fish and Chips, which was breaded in Panko and fried perfectly. My wife had the Fish Sandwich, which tasted great as well. We also had the Coconut Prawns, which I'm sure were house made. These were amazing! If you're looking for a great dive bar that's not right on path, that has a friendly service, good drinks, and good food, stop by Kelley's.

You can't beat the view with this place right on the beach. Plus, it happened to be a beautiful day. When we walked in it felt very comfortable and more modern than I was expecting but had a comfortable ambiance. The service here was great. We were greeted right away. Our waitress was fantastic as well. I went with the Rockfish Sandwich which came with 2 pieces of rockfish, tartar sauce, creamy slaw, lettuce, and onion. I went with no tomatoes. Honestly, this tasted great. The fish was fried perfectly, not greasy at all. The fish appeared fresh as well. This came with battered fries. My youngest daughter had the grilled cheese, which she easily took down. No complaints. The menu may have changed, but we had some prawns in a chili sauce that tasted great, and my wife and other daughter had a salad with shrimp. This tasted great as well. The shrimp had a nice flavor and were not over cooked. It was the perfect addition to the salad. It was a little more on the pricier side, but everything is getting more expensive now days. Overall, we had a great experience. We had a great view, everyone working there was friendly, and our meal tasted great. The Sand Dollar is certainly worth a try.

It screamed Somewhere in Time with Christopher Reeve, or Kellerman Resort (Dirty Dancing) with the wood paneling, historic photos and memorabilia on the walls. The booths/tables are large and spacious. The view is Pacific Northwest perfection. We spent a large chunk of our breakfast watching boats, people fishing, and crabbing. It did take a moment to be acknowledged or seated, but it is worth the wait. I think they only had one very sweet host, and she was also taking orders, and running food. I ordered the coconut french toast (half order), and a side of the crispiest bacon. I also order crispy bacon, but rarely does a location truly get it right. There tends to be floppy flaccid parts, and flaccid is never a preference, especially when it comes to crispy bacon. This bacon was crisped to perfection. The french toast was very good, but quite sweet. I couldn't have handled more than a half order. My husband ordered the chicken fried steak, with a side of biscuits and gravy. He annihilated his. We appreciated all that Pirate's Cove had to offer, and will return should we find ourselves in the Rockaway/Garibalidi area.

However...when the rest came, it was such a let down :(( LUKEWARM food almost cold.... - Watery oyster soup that needed much more seasoning and more creaminess to it. - So underwhelming crab cake entree with one small cold baked potato. The butter I put on didn't even melt! The crab cakes were the worst I have ever had. They were cooked with OLD OIL used way too many times so the smell was just awful. Bread, yes, bread is one of the key ingredients. So just imagine, two crab cakes that are heavy, with soggy bread as key ingredient, with some crab and a bit of other usual crab cake ingredients cooked in nasty oil! --The lady who waited on me was very KIND and ATTENTIVE. --The food, just YUCK except for the FLUFFY SO LIGHT bread and butter :((( ----One star - for the service and for the bread and butter! ----Overall high price for hardly edible food!

The pizza was so delicious, halfway through eating the original Margherita pizza we ordered in the restaurant, we decided we needed to order another one to go. We were super hungry when we got there, so we were a little bothered with the wait (~30 minutes) despite it not being that busy, but any negative feelings went away after eating the pizza. The owner of the restaurant was there, too, and he was super friendly with customers, making sure that everyone was having a great experience.
