Situated in Astoria's City Center, the Wet Dog Cafe is one of the most popular bar & grills in the neighborhood. Also home to the Astoria Brewing Company, Wet Dog is a brew pub of the sort that has become very popular in the Pacific Northwest in the last decade and a half. It is very nearly the quintessential locals hang-out: everyone comes in here, at some time or another.

===Carter Ennis, Owner===
 
The gruff and no-nonsense owner of the Wet Dog Cafe, Carter is a former rancher. Though he seems occasionally bitter about having to sell his ranch and move into town, it's clear that he loves his cafe, and enjoys entertaining tourists and the like with his tales of local history and urban legend. He's somewhat hard of hearing, though, so he occasionally speaks a little louder than is necessary.
 
===Elizabeth Chien, Waitress===
 
Elizabeth waits tables part-time; she spends the most of the rest of her time studying marine biology at the [[University of Astoria]]. Though she definitely wants something better out of life for herself, she considers herself well-rounded, working, learning and even keeping in decent shape with a couple of kung-fu and tai chi classes at the Chinese Community Center.
 
===Carlie Banks===
 
A young woman who has clearly seen a lot of strange things, Carlie has something of a meek, sensitive demeanor. She's well-liked at the Wet Dog, however, and considers it something of a second home. She attends the [[University of Astoria]], like her housemate Elizabeth. Though she was originally a journalism major when the school was Clatsop Community College, she has since switched her major to Anthropology.
 
===[[Henry Mulgrew]]===
 
Another University of Astoria student, Henry is a communications major attending on a full rugby scholarship. He's the newest of the waitstaff, and his affable demeanor makes him well-liked by both co-workers and patrons.

Situated in Astoria's City Center, the Wet Dog Cafe is one of the most popular bar & grills in the neighborhood. Also home to the Astoria Brewing Company, Wet Dog is a brew pub of the sort that has become very popular in the Pacific Northwest in the last decade and a half. It is very nearly the quintessential locals hang-out: everyone comes in here, at some time or another.

Layout

The building that houses the Wet Dog is right on the water-front, and the pub takes advantage of that fact with an outside deck that overlooks the Columbia, and a large set of windows that provides a great view of the river even when the weather is too wet or cold to seat patrons on the deck. The main tap room is large, and features a large wooden old-fashioned saloon-style bar. The kitchens are tucked away opposite the entry door, and the brewing facilities are in another room, although large picture windows provide a view of its workings from the tap room.

  • Season One: The Wet Dog was Henry's place of work, and the site of a couple of notable occurences, including the group's first encounter with Victor (whose preternatural senses prevented Thomas from lifting his phone) and a strange incident of one of the waitresses (Elizabeth Chien) being possessed by Elaine's Rookery and speaking cryptically to her.
