    What a great find! We were looking for a place to hang out while waiting for our take out order at a local Thai place and practically next door was this little gem. I'm not a beer drinker but I'm always willing to give something a try. Well, I found a beer I love! Everyone is so friendly. We aren't local but they sure made us feel like it. It's just a nice place to be. They have growler refills, a very well stocked bottle shop with an impressive selection of unique beverages and they offer a 6 pack discount.

    Oh hello, seaside!!!

    Not bad at all!! And dog friendly! Seaside is a sleepy little ghost town right now since it's not summer!! And it is very cold, very wet and very windy!! I've been here for almost all seasons. January is their slowest. Though we barely got the last room at the hotel so it's not that empty. But it is hard to find doggy friendly spots. My puppy loves running on the beach for sunset but after that, the non stop rain got us soaked. Went to a few spots before passing by this! The lady behind the counter was so nice! Saw us soakedddd and she let us in. She knew my question too: Is he allowed inside? She said yes! Here's the rule. They have a rule sheet: pretty simple. Keep your dogs leashed! Do not let them sit on the tables and don't get in fight. Baci's good with all that! So viola! They have beers on tap! Pretty spot, big-ish, bright, open! And of course, they have wine. Prices are so beyond reasonable. My glass of wine was $6! I cant even get happy hour wine for that price in seattle!! Nothing under $10 per glass on happy hour! And, no tax! Yey oregon! We sat and had a drink or two. Met pretty old and funny local people too. Even shared their war stories! And their interesting jobs! Best part: dog friendly! Super affordable prices! And good wine list. it's right by the promenade. I'm sure it's crazy pack in summer but we loved our pretty chill January/post holiday vibes! Will be back.

    Dog friendly and great selection of taps, bottles, cans, and CBD.

    The Whet Spot was a very welcome find on the coast! They have a great selection of beers with ample seating in a comfortable environment. Plus the staff was really friendly. I was particularly happy to see that they had a great selection of CBD drinks and that they were dog friendly. I will be back every time I visit Seaside!

    Cool small spot to grab a few beers from all over Oregon. Only a few minutes walk away from the beach, this small establishment features great beers before or after visiting the beach. There are cards and board games provided so it is good for groups too. The caveat here is that any minors under 21 are not allowed, so no kids! Prices are fair and the owner does a good job of welcoming you. Great place to stop by!

    Cans and bottles of beer, cider, wine, and non-alcoholic to drink there or to go.

    We were just a few out of town visitors looking for a low key spot to enjoy a decent drink. This place was exactly what we were looking for after enjoying some Thai food from the neighboring restaurant. The Whet Spot is an awesome tap room and bottle shop featuring local brews and wines. The knowledgeable bartender was hospital, welcoming and gave us some great advice on other breweries and taprooms to check out in neighboring towns. She offered complimentary small half ounce tasters so we could make sure we were in even though larger tasters are available on the menu. Great vibes all around! I'll be back next time I'm in Seaside.

I was recently spending some time in Seaside, and…read moreDaughter's is in Gearhart, which is just the town north of Seaside, so pretty quick to get there. It's great to go in the late afternoon or early evening during "golden hour" and sit outside when the weather is nice. The garden doesn't have a view, but it's a nice garden that lets you breathe in the ocean air. The owner is super friendly and helpful, and they stock mostly Oregon and Washington wine, so you get a good Pacific Northwest taste. I had two different glasses, and they were both good and easy to drink. I also got some snacks. The snacks menu is pretty basic and not that extensive, but it's presented in a charming and quaint way. Very homey but sophisticated at the same time. If you like wine and you're in the area, definitely worth checking out.

You'll walk in as a visitor, but you'll leave as a friend. It's rare to find a place where locals, seasonal residents, and tourists all feel welcome. Make the time to visit Daughters, you'll be glad you did.

Stopped in for the last…read moreset about 7pm, owner was manning the tiny bar cranking out craft cocktails and special homemade sangria flavors by herself. Two guitar pickers who traveled all the way from Arkansas were playing elevated folk rock on electric guitars to a crowd of maybe 14. Comfy sofas around the edges of the bar, and some small tables with tropical theme chairs. Two tables right on the Riverwalk outside the door. Full bar with liquor, surprisingly. Clearly a locals crowd, the last set was a twenty minute encore, and a local musician joined on the drum kit. Owner too? Awesome! I had a sangria in a Mai Tai flavor with coconut and pineapple, it was spectacular. Like nothing I have tasted before, and leaving me wanting to try ALL SIX flavors! Lyon's Den is an awesome find, a vacation themed tropical escape. I wish there was a bar like this back home in Phoenix!

    #THANKYOUTHURSDAY On…read morethe way home from our Cannon Beach overnight trip last weekend, we decided to swing through the Seaside Outlets. I mean, what kind of Washingtonian are you if you don't stop at at least ONE outlet mall? No tax, people... We mainly came to the outlets for Nike, Bath & Body Works, and Carter's. Being wine & beer lovers though, the name of this spot intrigued us. We were pleased to not find anybody else in the store except for the older gentleman working. The store is laid out nicely and is spacious. They've definitely got more wine than they do beer, but they've got a lot of both. The wine selection is phenomenal. So much! They've got wines from Oregon, California, and Washington. So many different kinds. I had a blast looking over all the different bottles and making my selections. My husband was also really happy with the beer offerings here. If you want to enjoy something in the store, you're able to do so. They have both wine & beer on tap available for consumption in the store. I didn't get the gentleman's name who was working, but he was so sweet and so helpful. I was having troubles picking between a few certain wines, and he helped make my decision and it was clear he was super passionate and knowledgeable about the products. Going further on that, he noticed my husband's beer selections and suggested a handful of other beers for him based off of the flavors he seemed to like - aka, we bought more beer than my husband intended ;) Even after grabbing two bottles of wine, and quiiite a bit of beer, after discount we only spent $60! There was a discount for a certain amount of cans (15% off for 8 I believe) and on the wines I snagged apparently too, which saved us $12. Highly recommend stopping by The Wine & Beer Haus if wine and beer is your jam. Outside of the wine & beer we got, the service was spectacular and I can only hope all the employees who work here are like the older gentleman who helped us out the day we were in. Thanks, The Wine & Beer Haus, for helping us add to our stash! ;)
