Always had very good food and service at the Cornucopia near Fifth Street Market. The Chicken Taco salad is so good I rarely order anything else (other than a cold IPA). Another positive: the large parking lot to the NE across the railroad tracks has reverted from some arcane cell-phone-assisted pay parking scheme to free three-hour parking. Among some friends the Cornucopia reputation is moderately too expensive. And, be forewarned, at our visit on May 21 we were charged an added three percent for paying with our Visa card. Bring cash. read more

I haven't had Cornucopia in years. I decided to order a burger and cauliflower wings today. The burger was amazing so I have nothing to say about that.. the cauliflower wings were also very good however the serving size for nearly $14 was ridiculously small. I couldn't believe when I looked in the box how very little of a serving was in there. The wings are also a lot smaller than depicted on the photo. I wouldn't have bought them if I knew how much of a rip off they were. The flavor was great but the serving size was very disappointing and felt like a big waste of money. read more

Cornucopia Restaurant - Cauliflower Wings - Beer Gardens Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

Consistent good food. Pricey. Good pours of the house wines. Multiple locations mean you don't have far to travel.

I really wanted to like this place. Great menu and interesting atmosphere. Went for brunch with a group of 5. Two of us had to send their orders back because they tasted rancid. Might have been the bacon. They offered to replace them, but admitted no fault. Something was definitely wrong and it had taken unusually long to get our orders in the first place. My meal was okay, but not great and I was more than a little scared to eat it. We won't be back. Breakfast is kind of a hard one to up this badly. read more

In my opinions this place is just slightly overhyped. People like rave about it. It's good even really good but not quite sure it lives up to its reputation. For 20 dollars I got about a frozen dinner size portion of macaroni and cheese and some fries. Now this was probably the best Mac and cheese I have ever had, but for 20 bucks it's noodles cheese and bread crumbs like you can do a little bit better. Seriously tho best Mac and cheese ever and the fries are the best ones too like the ones at wetlands. Had a burger there one time and they put this seasoning that I didn't really like. I'm more of a salt and a pinch of pepper type when it comes to burgers. More spices doesn't always equate to more better food. Still a very good choice. read more

We were in the mood for some good burgers and cold beer. Maybe even a glass of wine. No place better to enjoy a friendly lunch than the totally welcoming atmosphere of Cornucopia. This is what a neighborhood bar should be. I especially like the burger on top of rice bowl, the Tavern Bowl. Good salads and fish and chips too. Cold beer read more

Cool little place with a cozy feel across from the art gallery. Philly cheese steak was one of the better ones I've had in my days. Soft tasty bun with ample beef and cheese and onions peppers. Fries were crisp and seasoned. Little ones had kids meals that were perfect. Server was very friendly and attentive. I'd love to go back again on my travel circuit. read more

Service was just so so. Way overpriced for what we got. Hubby got a 1/4 lb hamburger to which he asked me if it came from McD's. $17. should have been a $10 burger. Iced tea was $3.50. outside patio was nice. Will not be going back. read more

The food is okay, but it's glorified pub food and the prices are mindblowingly, insanely high. Like, $18 for Mac&Cheese, and just under $18 for a big side salad. I only go there anymore because my sister likes it. read more

Our first experience with take out. The fish and fries were so greasy the container was covered with grease . The side of onion rings was not any better. Will not be eating there again. read more

I've eaten at Cornucopia in several different situations, with clients, with friends, and recently a surprise birthday party for myself. I've never been disappointed with their food and service. The hamburgers just freaking rock. Friday evening was no exception, they were slammed yet our server, Stan, did an amazing job. He recommended some damn good beers too. My wife is a vegetarian and loves their veggie burgers and fries. I on the other hand devoured the big blue cheese and bacon burger, OK actually only half of it but I'll devour the other half today. read more

Cornucopia on 5th has always had great food and huge portions. It's gotten pretty expensive over time but so has life. I would much rather pay for the delicious, high quality food here than pay a similar amount at a restaurant for subpar ingredients. The last few times we went the service was good and the food came out faster than I remember. It's so hard to staff restaurants so this is surprising and awesome! Our favs: the ahi salad, the baby blue burger, the Angie's veggie 'vurger' and the chicken philly. It's totally kid friendly, too! read more

We were in the area checking out the U of O campus and needed a quick lunch. We were seated right away and the wait staff were on their grind. We didn't have to wait long for anything. Our food came out as ordered and was very good. The portions were good sized so I had enough leftovers for another meal. Prices were reasonable which is important in a college town. We will eat here next time we're floating through. read more

Waited to be seated for 15 minutes (even though they seemed to have plenty of staff) only to be told they just sat a party of 20 and the food wait would be 45 minutes. I hope the food is better than the service.... read more

The food was AMAZING. We definitely could have shared the fish and chips, the portions were so big. My kids said the chicken was the best they had ever had and- for their 10 years of chicken tender expertise- says ALOT. We shared a Bavarian pretzel- super yummy with the beer cheese and mustard they serve with it. Our server, Soleil, was great! Super friendly, very on top of things, and made sure we were taken care of all the way through. Our little family just happened upon this restaurant on our way through Eugene and we are SUPER happy we did. We highly recommend this restaurant!! It's off the beaten path and totally worth the short journey down the path! read more

This review is regarding the service and quality of food. I ordered the Aloha burger and when I asked some clarifying questions I got a very argumentative tone from the server. I simply asked if I could have my burger medium rare or is it a smash burger. She said she didn't know what a smash burger was but the quarter pounder is "too thin" for a temperature request. I ordered the half pound medium rare since that was the only way I could choose the temperature. The burger arrived seared on the outside and cold/gray on the inside. When I tasted it, it's clearly not fresh. These pattys are not made by hand, the only explanation is that they are frozen. My other 2 friends got the quarter pounders and they agreed their pattys didn't taste fresh. They tasted frozen like something you would get from the grocery store and reheat. Not juicy or flavorful. For over $20 I would expect a fresh patty. The burger toppings themselves were good and accurate, which is why I am giving 2 stars. read more

I know that this is an incredibly popular and established restaurant in Eugene and this is the second time I've tried it and again I'm disappointed so maybe I just have really bad luck. My twins wanted it for their 20th birthday so I asked for curbside pick up. I went to the restaurant and parked and tried to call and no one would answer the phone after calling four times in about 10 minutes I finally got someone to pick up. First they told me I hadn't paid for it even though I had online then they said it wasn't ready even though it's now 10 minutes after the time I said I pick it up. She said when it was ready she would bring it out to me but who knows when that will be. Hopefully the food is amazing because right now I am a little disappointed yet again. read more

I had dinner there last evening with a friend on the sidewalk patio. This completed the 4 tables with customers. I went inside to let them know we were there. I couldn't believe no one was inside, but this was at 8:30. The gal helping didn't look pleased. I think she was looking to leave early. Maybe you do close early, but yet you say open till 10 pm on Friday. Food was great as usual. I just couldn't get over how your server was not attentive. They didn't serve ice with our water which seemed unusual. Even with my friends drink. So she needed to ask for it.. Then at 9:40 they turned off the outside lights. So I went in to inquire about that. I asked if she was "kicking us out" she said you would know if I was kicking you out. I told her that was a rude comment to make to a customer. I had already paid my bill of $55 plus tip and the 3% fee to use my credit card. Which is silly because that's a business expense. I'm real discouraged, this a neighborhood restaurant. read more

This place has my favorite veggie burger in Eugene. It's unique and not just a Boca burger slapped on a bun. You can get any of their burgers listed on their menu as a "vurger". My go to is the aloha vurger which has teriyaki sauce, slaw, and pineapple on it. Yum! The Cajun fries are pretty bomb as well. The portion is huge. I cut my vurger in half and take half home along with half the fries. Monday's also happen to be the burger special day. Burger, fries/tots, and a pint for $14.95 and it's two meals for me. My husband eats his burger in one sitting so I guess how many meals you'll get out of it depends on your own appetite size. They certainly don't gyp you on the portions though. Seating can be a bit limited. If you're a group you'll most likely have to put in a name and grab a drink. There are worse things in life. read more

This 17th Ave. location has really gone downhill since I last visited. It used to be a favorite lunch spot when out with a friend. I was there on Tuesday, June 4, with a friend and had what I can only describe as the worst burger (got the one with Swiss cheese and mushrooms) I ever remember having in a restaurant in my adult life. The burger was very over-cooked, dry and hard to the point of being difficult to eat. It also tasted like there were onions on the grill it was cooked on. (I dislike onions in burgers.) I probably should have sent it back but I didn't want to create a fuss while with my friend. The fries were fine as was the service. Still, the burger was so bad that I have to give this place one star. Probably won't be showing up again as they took my favorite item, the Reuben, off the menu. And, if you charge extra for a credit card, you should let folks know when you pick up their card. I had plenty of cash in my pocket. read more

The food was delicious and service was ok but could have been better. We all ordered different burgers and they were all very juicy and good. The burgers are pretty large, it would have been nice if the buns were warmed. There are many food options available including vegetarian options. The restaurant was full with a consistent stream of people coming in. The restaurant has a good vibe. read more

Just another burger place to me. Bigger burger and bigger prices... not totally impressed.

Cornucopia offers the absolute freshest food in Eugene! I can tell because the only explanation for the wait time is that they grow it from scratch. They took nearly half an hour to make an appetizer. I think they went and caught the fish fresh for my girlfriend's salad, at least. Which would've been cool if I hadn't planned on eating that hour. As other reviews have pointed out, this place does not have it together. I was embarrassed for them. This would be an excellent location to film the next Sarah McLachlan animal rescue charity commercial because everything about it is sad and just wrenches your heart. I wouldn't recommend it to go to eat, but if any OSU students are looking to do some research for a case study in failing local business operations, this is your place. read more

Our server, Emily, was fantastic! She kept us apprised on how long it would be for our delicious chicken pot pies to be ready. She was very attentive to all of her guests. I wish you had her energy! read more

I sat and waited for my food to arrive. After about an hour and 15 minutes my food finally said it was on its way. Waiting that long for 2 orders of mac n cheese. Yes that long. The picture shows a nice baked Mac n cheese with toasted bread crumbs. Not at all what I received. Almost 2 hours and I got this. Cold Mac n cheese that tasted worst that store bought. Not baked and no toasted bread crumbs. Tasteless. I will not be back and suggest others to do the same. read more

My life will never be the same after having that bacon cheese dip. I don't know why but that dip has a hold on me. Sometimes I'll just randomly start craving it and I can't let it go. I have to have it. The bacon cheese dip. Nothing else matters but the dip. And then when I finally cave in and order it from cornucopia it's like I'm in a weird haze and then it's gone. I don't even know where time went. I haven't even eaten anything else but tater tots and that dip. I keep coming back for more though. And all it is is bacon and cheese. It's addictive. It's delicious. And this review is just about the dip. Get the dip. It's good. read more

1st time here we really enjoyed our meal and service but I forgot to take pictures. 2nd time I brought my husband because I was craving their great Bloody Mary. I was not disappointed by the drink. Just like everywhere else people have good days and bad days. Today the servers seem to be having it rough. We had Ceviche, Philly cheesesteak, Tater tot's and the New Jersey Girl grilled cheese, All of it was pretty good except for the coleslaw that came with the sandwich. My husband said he would give it to D because it had no flavor and chopped way too big. The ceviche was pretty good but served in a small martini glass and a little overpriced for the amount that you received. Outside seating was nice. read more

Cornucopia is a good news / bad news joke. Decent atmosphere and the burgers are good but everything is super expensive, all the basic food options (a burger or a salad, etc) are about $25. Then on top op that they charge you for using a credit card. I know they have fees, every business does, but asking customers to pay them for paying them seems wrong. Some of the staff were delightful and some were quite rude, so the service is a bit of a crap shoot. I'm unlikely to go again but it's worth going once. read more

Meh. We used to live in Eugene and we would go here on occasion. We (a party of 8) went for an early weeknight dinner. The food was average at best. Given the prices it was a disappointment. Then a mandatory 18% gratuity for a party over six made this a place we won't go back to when we visit Eugene again. read more

Really good stuff. The tempeh fries were particularly decent. Not from the area but would keep this place in mind if I get back to Eugene.

If you order online, be prepared to wait a very long time for your order. It was said to be arriving nearly an hour before it actually did. Once it arrived, more than half of the items were missing. The food that did arrive was cold. Not sure if it's an issue with the restaurant completely forgetting multiple items or if its an issue with the driver. Very disappointing. I've tried several times thinking it was just a one time deal but unfortunately, that doesn't appear to be the case. Tried calling to let them know, but all they said was sorry and thanks for letting us know. Felt like a very big waste of money. read more

First I am going start this review by saying that Cornucopia's has the very best tasting burgers I have ever had in all my wonderings. Maybe a bit spendy? Yah, but hey, I say that a burger this fantastic is way, way worth the cost. And now on with the rest of the review. The service was just ok, the waitress was very friendly and helpful but after about 15 minutes I finally did finally have to get her attention when I needed a beer refill. But they were pretty fast otherwise. The dinning area needed to be swept up, there were large table scraps left under the table next to me the whole hour and a half that I was there without anyone taking care of it. Other than that the place was really cozy and welcoming. The music was 60's rock, with The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix and The Doors, just to name a few... Oh yah, good stuff indeed and not so loud so you could hear yourself think if you needed to. And the gender neutral bathrooms were clean and well stocked. I would say that this place was more for the locals, I dont think too many tourists would bump into it but they ever did they would get a pretty good idea of what Eugene is all about... ;) Good Job guys... I will be back! read more

Love cornucopia on 14th look for specials each night also outside eating in back with heater

I enjoy coming here every once in a while. My partner & I usually go to 5th st. since getting seated at 17th can take awhile. We were craving burgers the other day and was told by the server they use to make their own buns and now they don't. I was told by my partner they have cut so many costs with so many things especially when new partnerships happened. You don't get the little extras like the pickles either. They have won year after year with their burgers for about 14 years now. The day after eating though, I got extremely nauseated and I know it had to have been from the quality of the burgers. There is such a thing as cheap filler bread and it's the same feeling I get every time I eat it. I hope they bring back their homemade buns, but for now I'll have a lettuce wrap or a gluten free option if they offer it. read more

I'd love to review their amazing pot pie, but GrubHub says they're closed, and I was told to request them after when I called. I can make a better burger than anything cornucopia offers. In fact, bettered than anywhere I've been. However, The Paddock ever makes a better one than this pathetic place. Stop lying and claiming the meat is rare, but brown because of the marinade,or that you're required to cook it that far. You're just employing terrible cooks. read more

Wow - what a gem of a place! We were blown away with the extensive creative menu, the casual and quirky vibe, and the delicious food. We got the buffalo cauliflower and the bacon and blue burger. Could not be happier. Great customer service and friendly atmosphere. Definitely coming back soon! read more

Still one of my favorite places to land. Took advantage of their Birthday Club Wednesday last... Had a great Burger and Brew... place was as often is the case busy with the neighborhood afectioados. After a great bit of sustenance headed home ... only to discover late in the evening had left behind a bit more than a Tip... that would be my Cell Phone... and the Thursday next was the Day of Gluttony (Thanksgiving) to which as should be was a day off for Cornucopia. That was ok... as it only prompted a visit for Breakfast come Black Friday morning. Breakfast is one of my secret pleasures. I was not disappointed. Actually sorry I had not visited before for Breakfast ... Huevos Rancheros... well made and wholesome ... will be on my list of top five for Breakfast moving forward...
