Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry.

Ocean Bakery Cafe

During our stay in Seaside, there were many choices for dining. One particular spot we frequented was the Ocean Bakery Café. They had a bit of everything, from espresso and baked goods, a full bar, and a full service restaurant. And since we were staying in the hotel upstairs, the workers recognized us by the end of our visit. You could even order a drink and bring it to your room and I did just that on my birthday. I brought a Mimosa and a Bloody Mary back to my room to have with my husband along with some fresh and huge cinnamon rolls for a small birthday brunch. Another day I took my son for a cookie on the way outside for our walk along the beach. I had a Vanilla Latte and a lemon bar, which was gigantic, and their coffee is from a Portland Roaster. One night for dinner, our family dined in the restaurant near the fireplace. We had Chicken Wings with BBQ sauce and some Pulled Chicken Nachos. I also drank a Margarita which tasted delicious and paired well with my food. Ocean Bakery Café opened just this year and I thought it was a great addition to Seaside.
