Interesting update for Ahles Point Cabin = the musical genre has changed - It is no longer *100% Grateful Dead, but an eclectic mix of fabulous vibes, from The Police to Wilco, Impossible Germany - to everything in between- (Wilco is worth looking up). So yes, we do recommend spending time here. ** I wish they had lounge chairs.

After stopping at McMenamins Kalama Harbor Lodge and hearing about this spot, we knew we had to…read morecheck it out. Unfortunately, it's closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, so we planned to visit later in the afternoon on Wednesday. When we arrived, the parking area was empty. I walked up to the front door and stepped inside. I immediately noticed the fire crackling in the fireplace. I told the staff member I'd be right back after getting my wife. At the time, the only person inside was the McMenamins employee. The space itself is small and cozy, with two booths, about four tables, and seating for around five at the bar. There's also outdoor seating with a fireplace, though it wasn't lit during our visit. When my wife came in, she was absolutely delighted. She walked straight over and stood in front of the fire, soaking it in. We took seats at the bar near the fireplace and asked about their offerings. The bartender provided menus, which feature a small but appealing selection of appetizers, pizzas, subs, and desserts, along with a modest drink list. We'd already eaten, but I ordered a pint of their Hammerhead. As we sat by the fire, we chatted with the bartender/server, who shared a bit about the place and the nearby Kalama Harbor Lodge. A few other groups came in while we were there, but after I finished my beer, we decided to head out. Overall, we both thought this was a really charming little spot, warm, welcoming, and well worth checking out. Highly recommend!

I had fish and chips which normally comes with tots, but I requested fries and they were very happy to exchange them. Three good size pieces of cod came with this and plenty of thin perfectly fried french fries. The tartar sauce was delicious. It also came with a small side of coleslaw, which was rather tasteless. My companion had the chicken bahn mi sandwich and thought it was delicious, even though she did remove most of the generous amount of jalapeño slices. They have a decent kids meal menu. Plus, crayons and a coloring sheet, which helped to pass the way of our three-year-old companion.

Place was half full (maybe 10 customers), and the waiter was already so frazzled that he was kinda rude/abrupt - he just could not handle the 10 customers in the bar and dining. No food was coming out of the kitchen, and we watched the table next to us get up and leave after waiting for an hour and only getting an anemic looking single appetizer, and still waiting for drinks. They were upset, but we stayed because we were not in a hurry. The food was terrible. Waited an hour for an unceremonious plate of six or so dumplings the size of Hershey's kisses. That charcuterie plate other reviews talked about? It took 45 minutes and was very disappointing. I'll post a photo. We heard the waiter and cook cursing at each other- not good.

We would definitely go back if we are in the area and I would recommend it. While I initially didn't think I would feel comfortable in a place like this, I was quickly proven wrong.
