Beer good, garlic parmesan dirty fries not so much. Too oily. I like the ambiance and location is nice. You order at the bar and they bring your food. Very nice servers, and quick service. They also have cool swag for you and your dog. Love a place that loves dogs. read more

Nice beer and fast service. Tacos were delicious. Excellent root beer for the non drinkers.

The beer was spot on-- we had a Hazy IPA and another one I can't remember the name. Coastal? It had one name about that length. Anyhow. We popped in for dinner with the kidlets and were excited to sit along the fire table outside (yay for COVID distancing and keeping warm!). The menu wasn't up to our kids' speed (no grilled cheese, pizza, or mac) and more meat than not, so we decided to just order some pretzels and beers as an appetizer before hitting up the market for some soups and eating in instead. We split two pretzels, medium-sized and lots of Jacobsen salt on them (no complaints! We own a bunch of that stuff!). We got one with the beer cheese (good) and one with the beer mustard (too sweet). We finished those up in 2 minutes flat and just sat to enjoy the evening set in just after the sun set at that lovely fire table. I would've loved to try the veggie burger, but alas... wasn't in the cards for us that evening. Beers and apps were good. Would return. Would love to see them expand their kid menu to add at least one vegetarian-friendly option. My veggie kid wasn't having any of the cheeseburger, chicken finger, or fish and chips options. Picky. I know. I don't know where she gets it. ME.... read more

Food was good! We had the fish & chips. Clam chowder was tasty! Give the root beer a try. Service was good. It was a busy Saturday.

Classic pub food on par with most of the other restaurants in cannon beach - I.e. a little pricier than the quality due to the location. They have one room with little barrel tables which is cute and on theme. There's also booths and long picnic tables good for larger groups in their other room. One special thing I noticed is that they have a small selection of games available to play while you wait for your food. The fish and chips was pretty good quality - I do believe they get local catches. (Hint it's cheaper to get two kids portions than to split one adult portion). My friends liked the chowder and veggie burger as well. read more

Always a must when visiting Cannon Beach. Great selection of gluten free options. Delicious root beer (seriously, if you like root beer buy some cans to go!) Can accommodate allergies which is always nice especially when traveling. Dog friendly outdoor beer garden, too! read more

Service, the lady was nice, but you order at the counter, and clean your own table, so not much service. The food however, was really good, especially for cannon beach. We got the salad, chicken, and the bbq pork sandwich with onion rings. My husband gave the salad a 10, and the bbq pork sandwich was good. I would and will be back. Honestly, it's hard to find good food here. Either weird hours, weird reservations, or outrageous prices for mediocre food. read more

Had dinner with my family and had a wonderful time. It's family friendly for a brewery! They have games and best place to sit is on the outside... weather permitting. There is a little that you have to know when you come. Get a menu and find your seat. Once you know what you want, go back up to the counter and place your order. They will give you the number and tab to find your table. They deliver your food to you. Pretty simple! The food was great. It I have to say the burger was awesome! The flavors made me have food envy. I had the fish tacos. They were good, but the burger was just that much better. We also ordered the fish and chips. It was made with rock fish and the batter was tasty. I would have liked to play corn hole afterward but people were playing. So we walked down the street to get ice cream. read more

They charged 35 dollars for the most mid fish and chips of my life. Extremely good root beer though.

Amazing food and service. We were greeted right at opening with a happy smile by Malachi and the Manager Ron was there at the register waiting to take orders and help out anyway he could, even stopped by our table outside to make sure our food was to our liking. Definitely recommend if you're in Cannon beach or even just passing through.... Very dog friendly patio and my kids loved all the cute pupppers read more

Food is always good. The staff is friendly and helpful. The best GF onion rings ever. My husband isn't GF and loved them, if I didn't tell him they were GF he wouldn't have known. This is now a mandatory stop whenever I'm near Cannon Beach. read more

We had reservations at a different restaurant for a late lunch, but they said it would be a 90 minute wait. We called Public Coast and they said there wasn't a wait and room on the patio so we drove on over. Parking on a Friday afternoon in Cannon Beach is tricky, super crowded at the time. Came here originally with group of 9 (2 cars). 1 is the cars found a parking spot quickly the other one gave up and drove back to our hotel. When we arrived we realized it was a walk up and order and not a restaurants with servers. There were no tables available on the patio, but there were tables inside. We found a table inside and a couple of us stood in the food/beer ordering line. The line moved pretty slow, we waited for a good 30 mins, about 10 people in front of us. We ordered a couple glasses of beer and 3 of us got the flights. I got a 4 beer flight (I'm super indecisive). All The beers I tried were tasty, my favorite was the Blueberry Seltzer, good enough that I bought some cans to take home. Our food came out quickly, probably waited 10 minutes. We ordered appetizers for 5 of us. We got the pretzel, dirty fries, wings and onion rings. My favorite by far was the onion rings, they were crispy, flavorful and tasty. The other items were just alright, normal restaurant food items. I'd recommend going right when they open to get a good spot and to order quickly, the beer was good, food was good, so I'd recommend this spot. read more

I really love the beer here. Each time we come there's a different brew to try, and they're always exactly what I wanted. There's lots of varieties to choose from too. You order at the counter, and they bring you your food - the menu has changed a bit over the last year, but there's still vegetarian options. The staff is always friendly, and always makes us feel welcome. Live music on the weekends! read more

Everytime I'm near Cannon Beach, Public Coast Brewery is a must stop location. The other reviews steered me here initially with their claims of the worlds best fish tacos. The other reviews were correct. The fish tacos are amazing and definitely some of the best I've ever had. The tap list at Public Coast is extensive with a variety of styles. On my last visit I had the Peach Milkshake IPA. A total boozy peach smoothie. A surprise find here is the root beer. It gives A&W a run for their money. That good! Beers and rootbeers are for sale in singles and 6 packs to go. This summer we have spent time on the beautiful and comfortable porch area. Nice chairs to relax, drink a beer and people/dog watch. read more

This place was a gem! While walking through cannon beach we decided we needed some root beer and fish and chips. The root beer was wonderful..... we even bought extra for our trip back home to ARKANSAS. I wan also thankful to have fish and chips where the fish didn't have the batter! The garter sauce was AMAZING!! I want the recipe ;-). If we are ever back we will be headed here again. Outside seating was nice. There was enough room for the kiddos to have their own table..... winning for us Adults! Thanks for the great food. This southern family enjoyed it!! read more

The fish tacos are delicious. Hot, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Just the right level of spicy topping. My companion ordered a burger. He liked it, it was a bit rare, but a warning to the effect is posted on the menu so be aware. Coconut brown ale is excellent. read more

Stopped in to catch a college football game on a beautiful sunny day at the coast with a friend. There's some great sidewalk seating, but we had to opt for an inside table 'cause, well, football. It was quite crowded at noon on a Saturday, but we lucked out and snagged a booth. The entire experience was a bit of a mixed bag. + The beer was quite good. I tried a peach sour and it was light, fruity, and nicely tart. It almost didn't taste like beer at all. They offered smaller beer pours, which was nice as I didn't want a whole pint. + The food was tasty. We weren't super hungry so we ordered the dirty fries to share. It didn't look like a huge portion when it arrived, but ended up being plenty for both of us. Fries, bacon, jalapenos, mushrooms, onions, blue cheese, and sauce (I opted for buffalo sauce) - yum. - The place was kind of dirty. It's family-friendly, and a family with little kids had sat at the booth we'd snagged. The server wiped down the table, but there was so much food debris underfoot... I was quite grossed out and had to tiptoe around the table to avoid stepping on smushed fries and whatever else detritus was scattered about. Ew. - The whole ordering system could use some improvement. I generally dislike having to battle other patrons for seating, then wait in line to order, then wait more to receive our order... I find it really onerous on the customer and rather inefficient. I would have liked to order a second beer during the second half of the game, but every time I stood up the line was ten-deep and I didn't want to wait 20 minutes for a drink. Lost opportunity there for the business. I could see Public Coast being a solid option on quieter days, when you don't have to worry about finding a seat or waiting in line for too long. I'd also opt for bar area seating to avoid the post-child hurricane mess. read more

Super friendly and helpful. Came in to watch game 7 of the Stanley Cup and they were more than willing to put it on for me. Laura was very accommodating and even introduced me to a taster of their other beers which were all exceptional. Looking forward to coming back. read more

1 star for being dog friendly and another 2 stars for that amazing cream soda. The cream soda here is some of the best I've ever had. Would never go here for food ever again. Quality felt frozen. Kids working seemed really sad. They looked stressed and over worked. There was a huge line, my girlfriend got really excited because the food must be amazing. After we ate she looked sad. read more

Good food. Good prices. Fish and chips and fish tacos are pretty good. Locals seem to eat there and like it. That's always a plus.

This is a terrific place to have a good drink (or 2) , delicious food, in a fun atmosphere. We ate outside, and enjoyed a great covered seating area. Yummy fish tacos, fries and especially the wings with the root beer bbq sauce--soooo good! Plenty of beer and cider on tap to choose from. Our 2nd visit, and we will return. read more

Loved the coconut beer! Only ate the sea salt caramel dessert. Wish I had grabbed a sweatshirt on my way out. I loved the order station convenience and outdoor sitting areas. read more

The beer was good, the onion rings are FABULOUS! The pulled pork sandwich wasn't worth the price and the $20 burger was just okay. The pork wasn't tender and the brioche bun didn't add anything to make it better. Might return for beer and onion rings! read more

Beer is good and so is the food. I'm not a huge fan though of the "set up" of this place. You stand in line and order before you take a seat. Then, if you want more drinks, you have to scan the bar code at your table and open a tab via an app. It works, we got our drinks in a timely manner...but I'd much prefer just having a waiter/waitress instead. read more

We visited multiple times during our vacation in Cannon Beach, and while there was one minor challenge, I'm giving them five stars since it's really hard running a restaurant during COVID. First off, you order your food and drinks at the bar and there's usually a wait during peak times. For us it was about 10 minutes every time we visited, then it took about 10 more minutes to get our food. This process isn't extremely efficient but with COVID I totally get it. But the biggest challenge is that many D-bags.... I mean "customers" will grab an outside table before ordering anything, thereby occupying the table ahead of those who've just ordered. So the ordering and seating system benefits jerks and punishes those who try to be respectful of those waiting before them. I still waited to get my table until after I ordered and as a result was never able to score a coveted outdoor table. I guess that's the price you pay for being a decent human. Once I got over this small mental injustice, I really enjoyed everything else about this brewery. The beer was excellent (I got the Coastal Haze and a barrel aged stout and both were fantastic). The burgers, fish and onion rings were great, as were the fries. Jenn was great and very attentive, and we were welcomed back the next visit by a gentleman who recognized us. It may have been that I was wearing a hat from the brewery I purchased the first time I visited, but it was still a nice touch to be thanked for returning. I didn't get his name, but he carried himself with authority and was very knowledgeable about the merchandise, like a manager or owner. They're also kid-friendly until 8pm. Lastly, their branding is great! If you're here on vacation, it's a nice place to pick up some gear to remember your trip. Just keep in mind that the progress are very inflated ($30 for a t-shirt!), but still great designs. read more

Wow oh wow best fish and chips!! The line was beyond long to order but food came out promptly. Worth the wait

Perfect patio for dogs. Cute and clean brewery. Wait staff was very attentive. Will definitely be back. read more

Public Coast Brewing - Fish tacos and cheeseburger. - American Near Me - Cannon Beach, Oregon

This place was fine, Decent food and a nice outside area. The ordering system is bizarre though. We walked in to an enormous line of tourists waiting and grumbling. The line didn't move. Then on the other side of the building was a very small sign that said something to the effect of "buy beer here" with no one at it at all. Once I figured out the system it was all right, but before that it was like hanging out on the streets of Calcutta. Except with rich people. read more

As someone who eats GF, this place is one of the best I've ever found. I haven't had onion rings in over 7 years and I was SO happy with them! I missed good fried food. And the fish n chips! Can't wait to go back!!!! WORTH going to even if you aren't gluten free read more

We spotted this brewery coming into town and circled back as a group to grab a beer. Before coming in we grabbed lunch, but Public Coast serves a full menu. The staff warmly greeted us upon arrival and encouraged us to sit wherever we'd like. We settled on a seating area near the front with a comfortable couch and chairs. The brewery offers a nice selection of on tap beers that they brew as well as guest taps. They also make root beer! I love freshly brewed root beer so that was my drink of the day and it didn't disappoint. The bartender offered to let us sample anything we wanted which helped in choosing a beer. The ale my husband chose was delicious too. read more

Arrived into town and immediately spotted Public Coast and stopped for some lunch. The little lot behind the building was full, but I was able to grab a spot on the street a block away. Stepped inside and saw they had several seating areas. There's the bar area, booths and tables with TVs playing sports and picnic benches outside in front. You stand in line to place your order and they hand you a buzzer to deliver your food to your table. Line was a few people deep, so if you were wanting just a beer, you had a wait. I didn't mind the wait, since that gave me time to peruse the menu. Placed our order and it was rather loud inside with kids and groups watching/cheering for games, so we sat out in the sunshine out front. Food arrived faster than expected. Chop chop salad- I decided to go light with a salad and a glass of Chardonnay. Salad was iceberg, bacon, Tillamook pepper jack cheese, tomatoes, carrots & a citrus vinaigrette. Exactly what I was looking for. A bit too much dressing, so I should have asked for light dressing. Onion rings and Prime rib sandwich: tried bites and and they were excellent! I was jealous that I didn't order. Would love to go back and try a burger. read more

Public Coast Brewing - Chop Chop Salad - American Near Me - Cannon Beach, Oregon

A group of us stopped into Public for lunch and brews. Free street parking can be found. Credit cards are accepted. Public Coast is family friendly. Public Coast offers indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoor seating is dog friendly. Happy Hour is offered daily from 4pm-6pm. Public Coast is essentially self-serve. Food and beer orders are placed at the front counter. Food is the only item delivered to the table. If anything else is needed (more beer, water, condiments, etc...) another wait in line is required. I enjoyed the couple IPA's that I drank. I was interested in purchasing a bottle (22oz) of beer to take home. When I was told the bottle of beer was $13 my interest evaporated. My bestie and I shared the Fish (Halibut) & Chips for $22.95. The four (4) small pieces of fish that we received were tasty. The fries were nice and salty. The food quality and portion sizes do not match the expensive pricing. The self-service aspect is bothersome. Customer care is nonexistent. Overall, I'm glad that we stopped into Public Coast. Would I stop in again? Yes, but only for a beer. read more

Food is good, but expensive. Beer is variable in quality from ok to bad. I tried six and none were exceptional Service is...odd. honestly if your ordering from the bar and all you get is your food delivered to your table, there should not be any tipping. I mean, what service are you receiving that justifies the tip, especially considering the prices? Its nice inside, clean, but in the end the prices far exceed the food/beverage/service benefit. Next time I will try somewhere else read more

Came across this place looking for gluten free fish and chips and it is the bomb! My best friend was with me and she is not big on gluten free. We had clam chowder, fish and chips and onion rings. We both can't say enough good things; great service, great food! My non gf friend, can't stop raving about how good this place is and how she wouldn't even know it is gf. Will definitely be back! Actually going to do my birthday dinner here! Can't even imagine giving this brew pub less than a 5 star review. read more

Lots of gluten free options! The best clam chowder I've ever had (gluten or not gluten). The person who packaged my to go order even included gluten free crackers. Also tried the vegetarian sandwich and the gluten free bun was so good. Highly recommend this place especially if you are concerned about being "glutened". The staff was very aware of allergies and said everything that goes into the fryer is gluten free. Very good experience here and will return. read more

Brought the family here for dinner on a Sunday night. We were lucky enough to grab one of the last tables available inside. Order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. The kids enjoyed their burgers and especially loved the root beer floats for dessert. I had fish tacos and a side of my new favorite clam chowder. My husband enjoyed the chicken salad and tasting a few of the beers. The staff was friendly and able to answer all of our questions. I plan on stopping back in before our trip ends for another meal. read more
