2025 is undoubtedly going to be a big year for Oregon restaurants. With restaurants like Hayward in McMinnville and Akadi in Portland making USA Today’s list of the best restaurants of 2025, it’s no surprise that other Oregon restaurants are getting recognition as well.
Food Network, a channel and digital platform known for its food programming, recipes, and restaurant recommendations, recently named Tillamook Creamery on the Oregon Coast to its list of the most charming small-town restaurants in every state.
“While many people think you have to travel to other countries or big cities to experience the best parts of life, sometimes it’s those small towns that have the true charm and offer must-try dishes that will have you raving about them for years to come,” writes Ni’Kesia Pannell for Food Network.
It is famous for its cheese, ice cream, yogurt and butter which are sold all over the country.
It is also well known locally for offering restaurants and ice cream parlors to tourists.
The Food Network article highlights menu specials like triple cheese macaroni and fire-roasted tomato soup, as well as “local beers and ciders that spin the handle.”
Other items on the menu include Tillamook Double Cheddar Grilled Cheese, Fried Cheese Curds, and burgers, as well as ice cream.
Tillamook Creamery also offers tours and tastings, where visitors can learn about the creamery while tasting cheese and ice cream.
