    Well....I don't have a whole lot to say other than... if you are looking to not be welcomed into this town, the bartender can handle that. Maybe it's a thing, but for this gotten, it seems like they're not consistently busy. I'm not looking to move here or take over anything. A little kindness wouldn't kill her...or maybe it would.

    This sign was a very welcoming sign as were the others throughout the bar!

    Central Pastime is THE local bar in Burns and a fun place to hang out! There were four of us and we each had something different from the menu and it was all good bar food but those onion rings are AMAZING! The only reason for less than 5 stars is the service. It should probably be a little lower but I'm hoping she just was having personal issues that she brought to work. When your entire party feels like the server hates you, there's a problem! My mom was having a hard time deciding and our server was visibly upset about it saying she had other customers. She was "visibly upset" with all customers though so not just us! Brought down the fun vibe of the bar just a bit but didn't stop us from hangin' out and winning at the slots!! We'll definitely be back for those onion rings!!

    Hahaha! Liberals stay away. If you don't get the hint with the mask policy. Maybe the constitution amendments posted everywhere will make the marble fall. If not, maybe the posters about their love of gun rights? If none of this clicks, maybe the recall of the Oregon governor prominently displayed on the bar will tip you off. If you don't get it by now, hang around some fun people, eat a giant burger, or chicken fried steak, and drink some beer, listen to some country tunes, and for an hour or two pretend you're one of the deplorables. Maybe you can even admit you kinda miss Trump (not for reals, just part of the fun, right?)

    Bacon Swiss Burger was delicious. The bartender, I forget her name, was a sweetheart. Check it out if you're in the area.

    Morgan's is one the usual bars Burnsians (Burnsites?) go to hang out at. The bartenders and…read morefriendly and if you go there often enough or are consistent with your order they pretty much have your drink ready by the time you walk from the door to the bar. As a dark beer lover I'm kind of out of luck here: the darkest beer is Nectar Ales' Humboldt Brown Hemp Ale in bottles, with nothing dark on tap. The prices are reasonable though. The layout is pretty straightforward: the front portion is split between a pool table and an open area for dancing, and the rear portion has the bar, some tables, and free table shuffleboard. In between the bar and the pool table is a fancy internet jukebox that allows you to play almost any song you want. Sometimes the bartenders don't like having to switch between the radio (which is away from the bar) and the jukebox though, and on one occasion just gave me my money back rather than make the switch. Secretly I think they just don't like my musical taste, which I can understand, but then why have the jukebox? On weekend nights they have a DJ playing music. No jukebox allowed, however he does take requests and has played everything I've ever requested which is cool. The standard playlist includes a lot of hip hop, which seems very unlike Burns. Since I come here pretty regularly I have noticed that the same songs get played pretty much every weekend; I would love some more variety. At this point Morgan's is the spot to go in Burns. If they had darker beer and occasionally played some punk rock I would never go anywhere else.

For a beer we were charged 2.00 and 1.50.. they must have had some sort of happy hour. It was right down the street from our motel so we could walk to it. They also had a porch in the rear for smokers.

    Burns,OR May 2026…read more We came on a Wednesday night and there were only three other tables that were occupied. At 6:15 all the tables are filled. The restaurant is very clean. The floors, the food, the tables, the chairs. I am very impressed. My husband and I ordered a half chicken salad to share and we also split the chicken Alfredo. The Chicken salad was large. I found it hard to believe it was only a half portion. The salad came with a very large portion of shredded torn, hot chicken. The lettuce was Romaine and it had diced tomatoes with shredded cheese slices of cucumbers, large slices of red onion, and croutons. It was supposed to come with a sliced egg, but there was none on the salad. The chicken Alfredo was a very large portion. There was more chicken on the salad then in the chicken Alfredo. The Alfredo sauce tasted smoky. I swear there was a half a pound of pasta in that dish. Like all the other portions of food it is very large. They serve fresh bread with butter to the table. The bread is delicious. The waiter said they make it here. We were offered dessert but we chose you to decline. They have a display case of three different kinds of pies, bars, chocolate cake, cheesecake, and more. My only complaint is that the booths are so far from the table. I had to eat at the end of my bench. But I love that the backs of the booths are so very tall. You can't see your neighbor behind you. I was finished eating and pushed my plate away. My husband was still eating his food. The waiter came up to see if we needed anything else. As we were talking to him, an older woman came by interrupted our conversation with the waiter and started to take all of our plates. My husband was not finished eating, but since she piled the plates on top of each other, we were now done. Perhaps in the future, she should ask if we are finished before removing them from the table. The staff is friendly. The food is ginormous and delicious. This is definitely a place if I were passing through I would stop and eat again. I give this restaurant 4.7 stars.

We were there during a scary time with some of the wildfires and the staff were so friendly and supportive of the many evacuees that were there trying to get some food in their bellies and comfort in their communities. The portions were HUGE, especially for us coming from Honolulu. Service was quick and friendly. Definitely small-town welcoming vibes.

    From awesome to AWFUL in just 9 months…read more Our travels have taken us within striking distance of this establishment a handful of times over the years and we had always looked forward to a fantastic lunch at a fair price on these occasions; not so anymore. The only thing that even makes it worth the 1 star minimum is that the hamburger patty was still the same as before. The server was barely competent and, although not overtly rude, her sour demeanor made it clear that she was only doing this job grudgingly. From the time we walked in the door til the food hit the table it was about an hour and it took until the halfway mark before we finally got our water. Not only had the prices gone up by about 30% since our visit less than a year ago, but the food quality (except for the previously mentioned burger patty) had plummeted by at least that much. The onions on the patty melt were literally unchewable, sort of like gnawing on an old clothes line. Then there was the french dip; as if the dried out hoagie roll wasn't bad enough, the obviously overcooked roast beef pretty much crumbled when bitten. I only hope karma has something extra special planned for the person who had the gall to charge $17 for this giant desiccated turd. I don't know what happened to turn this once great establishment into the absolute sh!thole it has become, but do yourself a favor and leave this place in your rearview mirror, we certainly will be from now on.
