Sportsman N Grill Tavern - Pacific City

Amazing views, pretty good beer, and good but overpriced food. Like a lot of other reviewers, this is what I 've found at pelican brewing. This time around, I made it for happy hour. If I could only get happy hour here, it would be 5 stars easily. The food on the happy hour menu remains pretty solid, like a brewpub cheeseburger, 2 dollar oyster shooters, 7 dollar fish (singular) and chips, 4-5 dollar salads. But the highlight is the 5 dollar pints to me. The service has always been friendly here as well. Also, here 's a little advice for the reviewers freaking out about the bathrooms: if you 're really struggling how to explain an all-gender bathroom to your kid, engage the two brain cells you have and say the sentence it 's like the bathroom at home.

I recently visited Pelican Brewing with a large group, including kids, and had a fantastic experience. The food was top-notch and very flavorful. We were placed in what I can only call the family room, which was bustling with other families. While the room was a bit loud, it was perfect for the kids. The server was amazing, and we all had a great time. The family room leads directly to the beach, so while waiting for our food, we could take the kids out for a few minutes. One thing to note is that they do not take reservations, so we had a few people arrive early to put our name on the waitlist. We were seated within 15 minutes, but this was early May (low season), so plan accordingly. Overall, I highly recommend Pelican Brewing and look forward to returning.

The views alone from this brew spot make it worthy of stopping by for a pint! From almost any seat you can see the coast and sites of cape Kiwanda. I went with the fried cod and chips with coleslaw. It came out super quick and tasted really fresh. The small portion of the cod for nearly $25 was the only downfall. The fries were hot and plentiful. We also tried the marion berry dessert which was small but very rich so you only needed a few bites. Would stop by again for friendly staff, brews, and views!

First time at Pelican in Pacific City. The location overlooking the beach with a bunch of outside seating. The building and inside restaurant looked great. It was a beautiful day and we sat at a table outside. There's a sand area for kids to play in and a great view of the ocean. I'm a fan of Pelican Brewing and enjoyed a few of their beers. The staff was very attentive and helpful. We ordered the poke and chicken wings. The poke was ok, wasn't bad but didn't taste fresh. The wings were also only ok. The price on the mediocre food was way overpriced. The great beer, overpriced mediocre food and great very seem a solid 4 stars. I'd come here again but only have beer and enjoy the sights.

Amazing food, especially the Crispy Coastal Shrimp Bowl. The waiter recommended we get the sauce on the side which was a great tip! Keeps the shrimp crispy. It was a really nice balance of flavors, loved the pickled veg. Fish and chips was good but not mind blowing, very thin and crispy crust. Excellent fries and coleslaw
