Wow, what a great diner! The eggs Benedict was unbelievably delicious. The egg & bacon sandwich was hearty and delicious. Service was very friendly and welcoming. Small restaurant but really delivered.

The folks that work here are the nicest people! So friendly and genuinely warm!

Came for Sunday breakfast and hit it at the right time as there was plenty of seating. (10:15am). It soon filled up while we ate.

Food came out quickly and was very well prepared. The veggie omelette was terrific and my wife enjoyed a large pancake and bacon. Even the coffee was very good.

Great job by the team there and I highly recommend this place.

The cinnamon roll is HUGE! And delicious! Definitely recommend!
The strawberry pancakes were AMAZING! The strawberry syrup is so fresh and good!
We got Marionberry pie to go and it was delicious!
We will absolutely be back here again!

Stopped here on a whim, waited patiently along with the locals. I was kinda in the doghouse because I picked the place. But If the locals are waiting you know it’s good. I ordered an oyster dish that I really enjoyed and the crab cake benedict was also good. The coffee is good and hot. I was redeemed. Stop at Downie’s when you’re in Bay City, it’s worth the wait.

Stopped here yesterday as we were heading up the coast. So glad we waited for a table. The place is small and only open until 2:00pm. The staff is very friendly and inviting. We asked what the local favorites are, and boy was I happy with the answer. She said the chicken fried steak and cinnamon rolls are a big hit. Well, she had me at chicken fried steak. It was perfectly cooked how it is supposed to be, not a frozen hockey puck dropped in the deep fryer, but actually breaded and grilled on the flat top. It was absolutely delicious along with the hashbrowns and gray. The rest of the family tried other items including a light and fluffy strawberry pancake, once again fantastic tasting, a huge club sandwich and last but not least a hand breaded chicken sandwich that my very picky son tasted and stated "This is the best tasting chicken sandwich I had". He even liked it better that other nationwide famous chicken place. The fries were incredibly tasty as well. The chef is amazing, cranking out so much delicious food in such a small kitchen. We took a cinnamon roll home and had it this morning with our coffee, it was light and very tasty, wish we got two. Give this place a try, it is worth it, we will definitely be back.

I wanted to try breakfast at
this small cafe on my way back
to Portland.

It was busy, and I sat at the
small counter and was moved
to a table a short time later.

I ordered two pancakes, two
eggs, and two sausage
patties after a long wait.

The menu offers omelets,
French Toast, Ground Round
Steak, and much more.

I received my order on two
plates in about ten minutes
with no problems.

The pancakes were huge
with good taste and were
fluffy.

The eggs and sausage patties
were both good and not overcooked.

The cafe has a lunch menu
with homemade pies and cinnamon rolls.

Located in Bay City on 5th
Street, just off Hwy 101 and
next to the mini-mart.

You might have a long wait
for a table and cash is the only
payment accepted.

A nice to stop for breakfast
on the Oregon Coast with
good food, friendly service,
a menu with a number of options for breakfast and
lunch with a homey small
town vibe.

A very little tucked away restaurant with wonderful food, wonderful service — just feels so homey! I’ll definitely drive out of my way to go back here again 🙂 I got eggs Benedict on a biscuit instead of an English muffin. With gravy on the hash browns. Everything was excellent!

1st time coming and now I'll never go anywhere else. I might move to the coast just so I can come eat here. Owner truly loves what she does and you can taste it in every bite. A fantastic experience!
