Inside the Adobe Restaurant and Lounge, Yachats(Yachats, Oregon) - Take a tiny bit of time wandering this tiny bit of a town and it won’t take long to become entranced. Yachats may not seem like much on the surface, but a few lingered moments at the wild, rocky shoreline quickly reveal that nature is going bonkers in an astonishing way. With no real sandy beaches to speak of, the waves are forced to slam against these massive basalt structures, then exploding with eye-pleasing regularity. It’s also easier to work up an appetite here, because walking these large labyrinths is a tad bit more work than the usual sandy strand. That, mixed with the ocean air, seems to beg for respite at a nearby restaurant a little sooner than your average walk. Luckily, Yachats has lots of dining pleasures stuffed into its petite borders. Seafood, of course, abounds in plentiful numbers, as well as chicken, burgers and plenty of breakfast possibilities. Some of these spots offer oceanfront dining too – which is a particular positive along this wild and wooly shoreline.
