Uptown Cafe

Was looking for a place to eat while staying nearby and came across this place. Walking in, it seemed a bit more like a bar than a café, but after being greeted and sat down, I felt better about it. Our server was very sweet and kind to us and made our experience all the best. The food was pretty solid - I had the shrimp tacos and they were very good, but the mango salsa was a little bit spicy. They also had an array of either homemade or locally sourced desserts to choose from! I would definitely return if I was in town again.

This was the first restaurant we went to in our trip in Astoria! We had just come from the airport and it was about 8:20ish, right before closing time, but they were very welcoming and let us come in. I had the supreme burger with the mushrooms, bacon, and Swiss cheese. The burger was very yummy, and the mayo/aioli was good, and added a nice flavor. Lots of avocado which was refreshing! Fries were good, could be a wee bit better with some seasoning, but the crispiness was good. The atmosphere was nice, for me it was too dimly lit, but it was pretty nice and quiet, and the tables were spread out well with lots of space between each one. Overall pretty good and a nice start to our trip!

After a day of walking the beach we found this absolutely perfect place to enjoy a GREAT meal with a cozy atmosphere, friendly service by Annie and Michelle and really tasty food served up quickly. Very reasonable prices too. There was nice decor, and we enjoyed the eclectic holiday music during our quiet conversation with no difficulty hearing each other. Their house-made ketchup was so tasty I decided to buy a couple bottles for gifts. It was such a pleasant place to end a perfect afternoon! Thank you so much to the Uptown Cafe chef and wait staff.

Went for breakfast, it was fantastic, cooked to perfection, excellent selection, delivered quick and with friendly service. Had a meat lovers omelet, my spouse had banana bread French toast, and it was very scrumptious 😋. This is a definite recommended must go too. Looking forward to the next time I'm in town.

My go-to for breakfast. Also solid for lunch and dinner. Super friendly, good happy-hour menu, really patient with dietary needs and restrictions. Give PnP a miss and go here instead! Edit: I can't leave more than one review, but I keep coming back! Consistently great, Uptown has become my regular haunt. I wish I could give them more stars!
