14 reviews for Wanda's Cafe & Bakery
Delicious, home-made, very tasty, down-to-earth eats. A road side diner like I imagine it used to be before food was made in factories. A real gem. Go out of your way to enjoy this place. Really inexpensive to boot.
- great coffee, espresso drinks
- the waffles were clearly "hand made" and were super tasty
- I *loved* my huevos
- great service
We popped in on a busy Saturday, but got a table without waiting. They only had one server working for quite a while, so it took about 15minutes to get waters and then about 10 more to get our order taken. A second server was brought in and that picked things up a bit as far as drink refills were concerned.
Great menu, moderate prices. Large, fresh portions of really good food. The club sandwich was more than I could finish and the salad was made with fresh greens. My wife's oat pancakes were rich and flavourful.
Very popular spot with locals and tourists it seems. Great decor with a 50's theme that isn't the usual malt shop that is overused by so many.
We were on our way to Cannon Beach (Oregon Coast) and stumbled across this little gem for lunch. What a cool, funky little place! Everything was decorated in 50's memorabilia. We sat by the board games from the past...lots of memories playing those games as a kid.
The entire menu looked great both for breakfast and lunch. Try the Clam Chowder..to die for.
If you like good wholesome food this is the place for you.
Loved Wanda's!! Quaint, home-like atmosphere with great food to go with it. Their TV turned fireplace in the corner is a quirky touch--as are many of Wanda's decorative items. We didn't get a chance to try their pastries, but they looked heavenly. I plan to become a regular.
I hate to do this, but I haven't been this disappointed with food and service in a while. How hard is it to eff-up breakfast?! Seriously folks. I can't believe I waited in line with a bunch of smelly and dirty hippies for this.
OMFG amazing... best caramel nut tart EVER... so nutty, not too sweet, went great with coffee.... if you are in the area you gotta go... cruise ship docked in Astoria today, SO GLAD i rented a car and made the beautiful drive down to Manzanita. :) My tummy is happy now, but my taste buds are filling with longing. Oh yeah I had this pie at the Manzanita News, they stock her goods.
Tons of breakfast and lunch options here. One of the better casual eateries in the area.
The Wanda's Club was huge! I don't know how you'd eat it all our wrap your mouth around it. It was really good! They also double as a to-go espresso bar.
The decor was old 50's style antiques: a shelf of old phones, old tv system, old tables -- it was fun.
The parking lot is crowded, but there is plenty of street parking.
Great spot, tasty food in right-sized portions. Manageable menu (too many choices and I begin to wonder about food quality), I didn't have room to try the sweets but if their omelet and quesadilla were any indication I bet they are just as tasty! I was treated for breakfast so I didn't pay as much attention to prices, but if I remember correctly, they were in the $6-12 range depending on the dish.
Very down home, local place. Solid food. I had huevos rancheros (which can be risky in a little coffee shop) and they were pretty darn good (and homemade salsa that was killer). Good job on the basics, too--bacon+eggs+biscuit was well done. No charge to sub fruit for potatoes which gets a plus in my book, too. The place can get busy so don't expect to zip in and out--take your time, this is a small town place!
Wanda's was a dream, except it was real. On a perfect first day of fall morning in this quaint Oregon coastal town, I was greeted with a perfect cup of coffee. I asked fora recommendation and it was suggested Huevos Rancheros or Eggs Benny. I choose the Huevos which was perfect! - The eggs - slightly runny; the beans and ranchero sauce - flavoriful and aromatic; the pico - perky and tasty!
You walk in the door and are transported back to a 50s roadside diner. Peach and turquoise walls covered in whimsical 'road trip' memorabilia. Hanging on the walls are vintage telephones, commemorative plates of different states and tourist attractions (Welcome to the Grand Canyon!), LP covers from the likes of Rosemary Clooney and Patsy Cline, and vintage TVs turned into a faux fireplace and an aquarium.
Paper doilies are hanging from the ceiling and each unique table could have come from a different 50s kitchen. Bright yellow formica, need I say more? Our table had a cool tablecloth under glass with a photo of a woman underneath to surprise diners. Literally everywhere you turned there was something to surprise and delight you.
The food was equal parts comfort and quality. They serve breakfast all day -yum! The hubby and I ordered sandwiches and mine was one of the best I've had all year (grilled turkey on rye with provolone, avocado and tomato). One son raved about his smoothie and the other enjoyed a waffle, primarily because it came with a BOWL of whipped cream and a second bowl with berries on the side. One interesting note was the only berry available was raspberry - so it was raspberry jam, smoothies, waffles, etc. Not sure if the berries vary seasonally.
They are a bakery so the quality of the bread and rolls for our meal was outstanding and the selection of scones and dessert items made me want to weep. Day old bakery items are only $1 and their coffee was robust.
**Not sure of their hours, but they only serve breakfast and lunch.
friggin fantastic.
Closed wednesdays, of course it was wed.
So back on thursday!
Open at 8? Try 805ish.
man, I am hungry!
Some guy was inside reading the paper, sippin coffee, so aren't you open?
Well no, he was just some local dude who engaged us in friendly newspaper politics about who Bama will pick for VP. Dangerous water to tread before coffee with strangers, but managed it well.
Then we ate.
Huevos Rancheros to die for. and a playlist to call home.
I bet they had a great pie here too, but too stuffed to even entertain the idea!
The card says "best food this side of Jupiter". Believe it.
Breakfasts to die for. None of these humongous plates with oversized everything - it's made fresh, it's fabulously flavorful, and it's just right. Lunches - major awesome.
And if in the summer you by chance drive by and see they're open for dinner, don't hesitate. Slam on the brakes and stop in. Order the special. You won't be disappointed.
When I saw all the cars parked in front, I figured this was a good stop for lunch. I'm a sucker for old collections and antiques, so I definitely appreciated the decor of this place. The food was really good, the service was friendly, and there's even a back porch. Highly recommended.
