New & Noteworthy Dining The Pines Dine Food Truck Village, located in Lincoln City’s Historic Taft District, is named for the historic Pines Hotel that once sat on the site. Now, the place offers a dozen food carts with diverse menus. The central building, separately run by Vin & Bräu, is a spacious place to sit out of the weather, enjoy beer, wine, and nonalcoholic beverages, and socialize. Public parking is across the street at 9 SE Inlet Avenue. The Otis Cafe, known for their homemade comfort food, rebuilt their restaurant in Lincoln City after a fire took their landmark site in the town of Otis. Their famous German potatoes are made from hand-peeled, shredded potatoes, and their pastries, breads, and pies are made from scratch. You won’t leave hungry, but grab a pastry or a loaf for the road anyhow. Recently expanded at the Salishan Marketplace, Depoe Baykery now has more room to craft artisanal, handmade treats. Follow the aroma to pastries, herb-infused bread, and gooey donuts. Another great addition to the marketplace is the Squatchsami food truck, specializing in fresh fish and chips, rosemary fries, and chicken and waffles.
