The views from the bar at the top of the Hilton (assuming you're staying at the downtown Hilton on 3rd) are fantastic. The Snow Goose (3rd & G St) also has a great deck, but the brews can be inconsistent. Still worth considering.

If you're up for walking, consider strolling along a portion of the Coastal Trail - easy, paved trail that hugs the coastline and unobstructed views across the inlet. I miss easy access to this trail now that I'm no longer working downtown.

Snow City's breakfasts are good, but be prepared for a wait on the weekends. It's not a place known for its speed. Sack's Cafe is on G Street between 3rd & 4th, but they only serve brunch on weekends and the prices can be steep. Delicious, but spendy.

There are coffee shops all over downtown that serve light breakfasts. My favorite is on G, just around the corner from Orso, but I know a lot of people are partial to Dark Horse or Kaladi or even Starbucks. I think there is a small diner-style place almost directly across from the Hilton on 3rd, but I don't remember the name right now.

There's also a Country Kitchen near the museum. My impression is that it's a Denny's with different branding, but that's based entirely on the exterior.
