LEFT COAST Coffee Co.
Lincoln City, Oregon
LEFT COAST Coffee Co. is a small-batch coffee roaster with a coffee bar on Highway 101 at the north end of the Nelscott shopping district in south Lincoln City, in a historic building, with a second location in Depoe Bay. The Lincoln City shop works with Recycled Felines, an all-volunteer Newport nonprofit that rescues orphaned newborn and medically fragile kittens from around Lincoln County, and keeps a back room of adoptable rescue kittens and young cats that customers are invited to visit while they drink their coffee. There is no entry fee or booking; the kittens are a free extra for coffee customers, and adoptions are arranged with Recycled Felines. The coffee bar makes espresso drinks and hand-brewed coffee one cup at a time and sells the roaster's own blends, brewing equipment and merchandise. Opening hours are short, generally mornings to mid-afternoon, so check before a visit.
