About
When you need to kickstart your day before exploring Cannon Beach, grab a hearty breakfast at Lazy Susan Cafe!
This family-owned and operated eatery is managed by Rosa Alvarez, who began her culinary career as a dishwasher and prep worker at the Lazy Susan Cafe in 1995. Fast-forward through several owners to 2007, when the current owners offered to sell the eatery to Rosa. The rest, as they say, is history.
Rosa ensures that the menu uses only fresh, locally sourced ingredients that reflect the Pacific Northwest's flair. You'll find classics like omelets, but with a twist, making them unique to the restaurant.
The lunch menu is equally impressive and demonstrates Rosa and her team's ability to flex their epicurean muscles. Again, the focus is on local ingredients, many of which are seasonal, which translates into an ever-evolving menu.
With its location on Hemlock Street, Lazy Susan Cafe is the perfect springboard into nearby attractions like the Coaster Theatre Playhouse that's next door.
The cafe's vibe and decor are akin to a home than a restaurant. And with Rosa greeting every visitor, her jovial spirit will welcome you like family.
Whether it's breakfast or lunch, dining at Lazy Susan Cafe is a must-do when visiting Cannon Beach.
