Otis Cafe – “Worth the Weight”

April 1, 2011

You may have driven right past this restaurant on the way into town, and noticed the gravel parking lot full of cars, or people waiting outside for a table.  This small little home, bult in the 1920′s, has been serving up homemade food from scratch for the past 80 years.  This is hands down my favorite place for breakfast… period.  Here is an example of one of their specials…

“Red-neck Benedict” – Biscuits split in half topped with sausage, scrambled eggs, and smothered in sausage gravy.  Served with Hash Browns – $10.95

Don’t forget to upgrade the Hash Browns to “German Potatoes”…. they add grilled onions and smother the potatoes with white cheddar cheese.  So good!

All of the breakfast entries are reasonably priced.  But, I must warn you… if you’re anything like me, you probably won’t be able to leave without purchasing one of their many freshly made  baked goods.  (best sellers include 2 lbs. Molasses Loaf Bread, Marionberry Pie, Cinnamon Rolls, or my absolute favorite the Apple Crunch Pie).  All from scratch and worth every calorie.

Also for sale is their famous “Otis Cafe Seasoning Salt”.  You can try it on your meal while you are there, and then purchase by the jar or by the pound on your way out.

As you can tell, I’m crazy about this place.  Hope you try it and let me know what you think.

After you fill up on delicious food, why not find a comfortable, luxurious place to lay your head down, at The Coho Oceanfront Lodge.
