Brut Wine Bar

Fodor's choice

Shelves of often hard-to-find bottles from both smaller and widely known wineries line the walls of this cozy, dimly lit downtown wine bar and bottle shop with a friendly staff that's always happy to make suggestions, whatever your price point. Enjoy a glass of wine (there's cider and beer, too) alongside a cheese-charcuterie board or another light snack. There's a cute patio as well. 

Cannon Beach Hardware and Public House

Fodor's choice
At this oddly endearing gastropub a block from the beach, the view from your table may be of bins filled with assorted lamb knobs or pliers—this is an actual hardware store (with a good supply of gifts, to boot). To drink you'll find a nice list of regional craft brews on tap, plus eclectic cocktails and Northwest wines, and good burgers, sandwiches, seafood apps, and other tavern fare are available.

Chetco Brewing Taproom

Fodor's choice
In addition to producing some of the most flavorful, well-crafted beers along the Oregon Coast, Chetco Brewing also has a spacious, inviting taproom with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and live music most weekends.

Fort George Brewery

Fodor's choice

The spacious taproom and brewery set in a former 1920s auto showroom has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating where you can sample some of the best craft beers on the coast, including a number of limited-release collaborations with other top regional brewers. There's also tasty pub fare.

Fortune & Glory Cider Company

Fodor's choice

Stop by this friendly downtown taproom with big patio with food trucks to sample superb handcrafted ciders made from a variety of heirloom Northwest apples. These Belgian saison– and English ale–style hard ciders come with a range of complex flavor profiles, from dry and crisp to chai spiced to full-on fruit bombs infused with marionberry or cranberry.

MacGregor's Whiskey Bar

Fodor's choice
Drop by this inviting lounge with toasty outdoor fire pits for a flight of fine Irish, Japanese, or even Oregon whiskies, a well-crafted cocktail, or a glass of beer or wine—all the drink options here are top-notch, and there's tasty bar food, too. There's a second branch in Cannon Beach.
