Agate Beach Golf Course — Local services in Newport

We love this little family owned (same family since 1961) golf course and coffee shop. It’s never too busy; we’ve always been able to play with little wait and no tee time.

I don’t golf. I came for the food at the clubhouse based on recommendations from locals. Had the Pork Adobo Bowl. It was awesome 10/10. 3rd generation owner is running the kitchen and just CRUSHING it. The “bowls” change weekly but they are delish. Not just super tasty but a nicely balanced meal with fresh veggies to match the quality meat and carbs. It shows that she’s got a college degree in food (she’s a registered dietician). Super friendly family owned since the 1950’s. They treated us like family and were just tourist from Wenatchee, WA...
