The 11 Restaurants You’ll Want To Eat At In Oregon In 2020
There are so many great dining spots around the Beaver State that we could feature a new restaurant every week and never run out of recommendations. Of course, do have a few favorites. These places are just a few of the tried-and-true dining venues that we go back to again and again. They’re the restaurants we always recommend to out-of-town guests, and they run the gamut from casual spots to historic icons.
*These restaurants aren’t ranked, they’re presented alphabetically, because there’s no way we could possibly decide which ones are the best!
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here: onlyinyourstate.com/nominate
It makes a certain amount of sense to get your fish from a gillnet boat, doesn't it? This little boat is a walk-up restaurant that specializes in just one thing - fish 'n chips - and it does it so, so well.

Cowboy Dinner Tree was once a spot along the cattle trail where hungry cattlemen stopped to dine. Today, it's a family-style restaurant that serves some of the best biscuits, beans, chicken, and steak you'll ever try. The restaurant has just two entrees on the menu, but they're both delicious!

Dan & Louis Oyster Bar has been around since 1907, and it's still run by members of the same family. In fact, it's the oldest family-owned restaurant in Portland! The seafood dishes are all excellent, but of course the specialty is oysters.

The Horn Public House & Brewery has delicious chowder, sandwiches, and pizza, but its view is just as good as the food. It's perched on a cliff overlooking the world's smallest navigable harbor in Depoe Bay.

Huber's opened its doors way back in 1879, and it's one of Oregon's oldest restaurants. When it opened up as a saloon back then, it offered a free turkey sandwich with every drink purchased. As you can imagine, a LOT of turkey sandwiches were consumed. Nowadays, you'll pay for your sandwich, but it's well worth it!

A trip to Tad's is like stepping back in time to the 1940s. This roadhouse hasn't change much. It still has its original jukebox, and it's still making the most incredible chicken and dumplings. Dine on the patio for a river view.
