This place is apparently a bit of a mecca for doughnut lovers. Good stuff. Maple bacon, huckleberry, Madagascar vanilla, lemon poppyseed....and monthly rotating flavors as well. It's a thing.
They also have their own blend/roast of coffee since they're pretty particular about the pairings. They partnered with Stumptown Coffee (Portland, OR) to create their exclusive blends.

A fixture of Newport Peninsula since 1912, with live music of local as well as traveling acts. Burgers & steaks & great weekly specials (e.g. Monday 1/2 off NY Steak, Tues: 2for1 Burgers, etc.). A unique charm, especially compared to other spots in the area.
3rd story patio is a great place to catch the sunset & have a sundowner.
