"Dining in Astoria is where sea air meets culinary creativity—fresh-caught fish, cozy taverns, and salty views that steal the show. It’s the kind of place where I can pair wild salmon with local cider, then watch ships glide under the shadow of the Astoria-Megler Bridge."

I’ve got a steaming bowl of clam chowder in front of me, the fog rolling off the Columbia River, and the sound of seagulls overhead—all wrapped in Astoria’s salty-sweet, small-town soul. Who knew the edge of Oregon could taste this good?
