This place was super cool and a fun experience. I can't say that I would come here every time I am…read morein Astoria but to say we went was fun. We ordered two drinks, one each and our total with tip was something around $40. Seems a little spendy but the drinks were amazing and very beautiful! The decor was interesting as it seemed like old lodge meets a Portland Whiskey Bar. I will say the bar tables we sat in were incredibly uncomfortable but all the couch seats were taken. Service was interesting.. It was a Saturday night, there were a handful of people but only one bartender. This was fine but in our 45 minutes there we went out side multiple times. When we walked in he was smoking out side, then we went out and spoke to some people in their car on the street and then went back out again. It didn't affect our service but it did seem a tad odd that he kept leaving the building.

Inferno Lounge is such a fun and memorable place! The modern inferno theme, darker décor, and…read morelively vibe create an atmosphere that feels both stylish and unique. Add in the incredible views of the Columbia River, and it's easily one of the coolest places in Astoria to relax and enjoy a drink. The cocktails are creative, beautifully crafted, and absolutely delicious. Their clam chowder is fantastic too. Thick, hearty, and loaded with meat, with a great consistency and a rich, classic chowder flavor. There was also a subtle hint of fennel that gave it something a little different without overpowering the traditional taste. After doing a chowder crawl and trying 10 different restaurants around Astoria, I would confidently put Inferno Lounge in second place, just behind Portway Tavern. Between the amazing river views, fun atmosphere, inventive drinks, and outstanding chowder, Inferno Lounge is definitely a place worth visiting!

Great view. Decent bar food…read more Fruit flies. Loud patrons. Don't expect too much and you will be thrilled.

On a beautiful spring day, we were on a meandering drive back to Seattle from a Portland weekend…read more We decided to stop in Astoria for dinner and to enjoy the view. The Knot provided the perfect combination of both. The food was excellent! In particular, we absolutely loved the pickled rockfish, salmon chowder, salted chocolate caramel custard and house-made citrus NA ginger ale. We happily enjoyed our meal while watching ships, seals, birds and ocean life. The server told us about the ships and even a podcast report to learn more about passing vessel traffic. It simply made me want to return for a longer and slower visit! Maybe to sit by the fire pit out front while watching life go by. A bonus was a (free) EV hook up adjacent to the property.

We stopped by here for a few drinks and some bread while we were walking the boardwalk in Astoria…read more The drinks were well prepared, but took a very long time to be made. We got our bread and basically finished it before we got our drinks. The bartender was new and she was looking at physical recipes to make each of our drinks. Im glad we weren't in a hurry. The view is outstanding and you can sit outside in the nice weather which we had that day because the inside is very small. We even saw a sea lion swimming off the pier as we enjoyed our drinks. A little pricey for what you get but overall still good but not somewhere I would return to with all the other options in the area.

What an unforgettable trip! We had a wonderful stay at the Bowline Hotel. It ended up being the…read moreperfect family vacation, and we loved that we could bring our dog along for a small additional fee. It's surprisingly hard to find hotels that are this pet-friendly, so that was a huge plus! The building itself is beautiful, but the real highlight is booking a room facing the river. Waking up to views of the Astoria Bridge from your private patio with a cup of coffee was luxurious! We could even hear the sea lions in the distance, which made the whole experience feel peaceful and so unique. The outdoor saunas were an amazing touch and the heated floors throughout the room, made our stay extra cozy, especially if you're visiting during Oregon's colder months! They've got you covered. Within walking distance to so many restaurants and downtown Astoria, if you're planning a trip here, I can't recommend the Bowline Hotel enough. It's relaxing, romantic, pet-friendly, and the perfect place to unwind.

We were seated at a window table, which was great. We ordered a couple drinks and a couple appetizers. The crab dip and calamari were amazing. Probably the best crab dip I've ever had. For main courses, I ordered the seared scallops and added prawns to the dish as well as a side of their chowder. So good. Melt in your mouth scallops. The chowder was some of the best I've had. My wife ordered pasta Alfredo with shrimp. She said it was amazing as well. And my daughter ordered the Boullabaisse. I've never heard of it but it's a seafood bowl that is delicious and has many seafoods inside.. almost like a soup. She loved it. Dessert was a chocolate torte and a cheesecake slice. Again, amazing. This is a must go to restaurant if you want upscale in Astoria, Oregon. It is well worth the price. And you cannot beat the atmosphere and service. It is exceptional.

My partner and I had the best time sipping and chatting with Quinn, the bartender. He was knowledgeable, conversational, and made a great drink! The space is small, with four seats at the bar, two floating seats, and two standing only spots. It's an intimate space with lots of Japanese figurines and memorabilia. Behind the bar sits a small TV where the bartender plays physical media (can you believe it!?) -- DVDs and Blue Rays of Japanese films. This is probably our favorite thing we've done in Astoria! Can't recommended enough! A total hidden gem.

They have a ton of video games, especially pinball machines, which I love. I was excited to play them, but when I asked the bartender about it, she just explained how to scan a QR code and build an account in order to play them. it's really easy she said. Well, I scanned the code. built an account, created a password..etc. It was time-consuming. After I was done with all of that, I couldn't get the app to work on any of the games and I'm pretty good with technology. I couldn't find the bartender anywhere to ask her for assistance. So we had a beer, but I never got to play any games which I wanted to. Update. The owner response was very quick and I appreciate that in all businesses. They obviously take their business seriously so I added a star for that. I appreciate it. Thank you.

We didn't stay long but enjoyed a variety of alcoholic and NON alcoholic beverages which I need and so appreciated the options. It had a notable but small menu for food. Great atmosphere and decor was very space like. Some of the machines are VERY close together and not very chunky person friendly. The walkways are narrow so that's good to keep in mind. All of the games use an app to pay. Which my biggest suggestions would be charging stations or plugs for patrons because we both came in with low battery and would have stayed longer to play but couldn't pay for any more games because our phones died!
