"The Wagon Wheel Diner was suggested to us by a friend because it was a very small business with super good food. We went for breakfast and had some extremely good biscuits and gravy." Diego BeBaron, Network & Software Engineer
-
"The cool thing was it was such a small town, so basically everything was a small business and had a local feel. We really enjoyed our time at the 173 Craft Distillery and Veterans Memorial Golf Club. We had great drinks and snack foods after a quick 9 on the course to close out our night." Bennett Curtis, Recruiting Team Lead

"The nice thing about this area is that 90% of all businesses are locally owned, and they rely on their Summer visitors for a big chunk of their business.
Fat Cat Cafe is a small spot with an amazing breakfast buffet! The kids love their eggs with bacon and sausage, but their favorite is the assortment of pies" Miguel Contreras, Marketing Coordinator -
"We supported Brady's Oysters while we went camping. We were able to get fresh oysters and seafood and see how the oyster farm works. They even make their own dips, which we were able to try all of and support their small business. Their dips were so good." Megan Say, Client Success Specialist
-
"The restaurant we ate at Seaside was amazing (Mo's). It was oceanfront, and the staff was very friendly. It was a family-owned restaurant with locations along the Oregon coast. They are famous for their very good clam chowder! We also visited a coffee shop (Pike St. Coffee) in Seattle that wasn't Starbucks." Mana Thongvanh, Director, Tech Operations

"This trip was a unique opportunity to showcase a small business as we played at Wolf Creek Golf Course, ranked 47th among golf courses in the country. Despite being one of the most trendy and sought-after courses nationwide, Wolf Creek remains a distinctive gem. The incredible views, exceptional course conditions, and fantastic staff all contributed to an unforgettable 18-hole experience!" Dao Ngo, Priority Client Partner
