About The Sea Lion Dockside Bar

The Sea Lion Dockside Bar offers a great beverage selection, a very nice setting, and some good merchandise to browse. The little bar in the back is a hidden gem with a nice covered back porch overlooking the sea lions. Minors are allowed on the deck, where guests can enjoy a hand dipped ice cream or a beer with a view. The gift shop is cool with lots of interesting finds, like hot sauce, cute charms, and tea. The coffee is so good, and the staff are cool and kind. One guest left a sweatshirt behind, and the staff immediately replied with a photo, offered to send it, covered shipping cost, and even sent some coffee. Another guest found the hot chia not mixed well, but a staff member was very helpful, re-made the drink, and offered a refund. There is also fun entertainment with the sea lions barking. Note: the bar is seasonal, so call to find out hours.

They immediately replied with a photo of my sweatshirt still in the bag. I asked if...read full review

Great Looking place owner is super friendly and fun

Sea Lion Dockside Bar is a fun place to pause while exploring Newport’s Bayfront. Grab a coffee or drink and head for the covered deck—the harbor, fishing boats, Yaquina Bay Bridge, and nearby sea lion docks give you plenty to watch. They do seem shorthanded so try and be patient with employees.
