There's almost nothing I love more than eating at a vintage diner. The delicious aroma of fresh-brewed coffee, sweet sounds of oldies music in my ears, the feeling of my legs sliding into the vinyl booth, and all the nostalgia of times gone by. Can you feel it? Almost makes you wish for a time machine to transport you back to the 1950s, doesn't it? Well, this coastal Oregon restaurant may be just the ticket.

The restaurant itself has been around for decades, but owner Terry Phillips reimagined the business as a 50's diner in 2016. His reasoning? It's all about small-town nostalgia. The front end of his dad's cherry-red '57 Chevy even graces the back wall. Nostalgia indeed.

One of the most awesome things about the Dutch Mill Cafe is that they believe no child should go without a proper birthday celebration, so kids ages 8 and under can take advantage of a free celebration with everything provided. That means burgers, balloons, goodie-bags, and even a cake.
