It’s different here.

Visitors to the town of Cannon Beach, Oregon, eventually learn what residents already know: In a community of many evident charms there exists a true hidden gem -- just a weathered stone’s throw from Haystack Rock itself -- in Sleepy Monk Coffee Roasters.

In the summer, you’ll know it by the line out the door, the people and dogs lounging outside, and the festive chatter. Come winter, you’ll know it by the steady stream of regulars, the steam of the espresso machine as a winter storm lashes against the windows, and of course the festive chatter.

Through all seasons, you’ll know it by what defines Sleepy Monk at its core: a brilliant, rich, complex, almost mystical cup of coffee, as warm and welcoming as the people who serve it. Whether enjoyed with a fresh-baked scone, with a shot of Sleepy Monk’s signature whipped cream, with new friends or old, we invite you sip and stay awhile. When it’s time to leave, we invite you to take some home.
