Popped in here for lunch with a friend who's a regular and loves this place. It's in a small vintage house in a busy area on High Street, but the inside has a cozy, "you're home now" feel. They offer an array of bites, including vegetarian dishes, which is what we were after. We each got the veggie burger ($19), which comes with fries or tots, or you can upgrade to their homemade soup or a salad for an additional $2. Kinda pricey but it was a lot of food, and we agreed afterward that we could have split the dish comfortably, since we aren't ravenous eaters. They make their own craft beer and cider, and I enjoyed a pint of their Bock beer with my meal. Fresh, crisp and smooth, especially on a toasty day. Our server was super friendly and efficient. Parking may be a little tricky but there are usually 2-hour free street parking spaces available nearby. read more

Our family is from out of town. We stopped in here for lunch, the staff was very nice. The building was entirely cute. They are very accommodating to our dogs and children, and we sat on the back patio. It was very enjoyable. The food was good. The service was very kind too. And we didn't see any ghosts! read more

McMenamins is like no other brewery or restaurant. They use schools as hotels and old libraries as breweries. There is nothing cookie-cutter about their facilities. Roughly 20 years ago I visited the one in Lincoln city when I first learned about them. Today's was very cool and eclectic like I assumed it would be and our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. I opted for the fish and chips and shared a plate of their Cajun tater tots for an appetizer. Everything was good and it was really some cool paintings all over the inside. read more

Excellent service. Very good food. what else can I say? I need 85 characters... Keep going

We stopped in for a pretty late night dinner. It was super cozy. A littel converted house was just the thing we needed on this cold and rainy night. The staff had just handled a big party right before we came in so they were a bit frazzled but were just awesome in making sure we had everything we needed and took great care of us. The food choices were all interesting but I wasn't starving so I got a bowl of chowder and my wife got the tenders and tots. The tenders and tots were fine, nothing really impressive. I enjoyed my chowder, it was super duper thick. But it was later at night so that may have been just the reduction through the day. I would definitely stop here again on my way through Eurgene and try some of their beers, because it's really hard to find good service like I had that night. read more

i got into town late one night and ordered a burger and a side of tots. I was expecting a bit more burger for $20.

Such a fun local favorite with delicious options! The Chopped Cheese was delicious but can be shared! With napkins!! The seasonal drinks were spot on! The hot butter rum was perfect for a rainy day! read more

Fun little brewery a few blocks from UO campus that I tried while visiting Eugene. I wasn't in the mood for a burger, so I tried a salad and was pleasantly surprised. The avocado seemed very fresh, and the combo or lettuce, corn, black beans, tomatoes, and jalapeños was a nice Tex-Mex mix with a subtle kick. Our group shared a basket of fries as an appetizer, and they were fantastic. If you've got the munchies or come during happy hour looking for a snack, you can get two pounds of fries for $11. read more

The perfect bar for a cozy, calm night. My family came here three times during the thanksgiving holiday and each time was perfect. McMenamins has an amazing beer selection and a very friendly staff, and it's also a great place to play board games if you're interested in that type of vibe. The food was great as well. If you're in the mood for a great beer and a cozy night out, this is the perfect bar. Thank you, McMenamins. read more

Food was ok. Cocktails were terrible. Service was friendly and on time. The place was too dark and more like a bar with bar food. I suppose if that's what you want then this is the place for you. read more

Great burger and a relaxed atmosphere. We had lunch and it was pretty quiet. Service was friendly and accommodating. We'll be back!

This was a very unique McMenamins stop! Hitting it right before the lunch rush, we had a great selection of tables. They were gracious enough to seat us out back with plenty of room for our pups to join us. Our server was very efficient - brought us menus & took our drink orders. She didn't have a lot of knowledge about the beer list, or seasonals available, but definitely had some great food recommendations. We ordered the Communication Breakdown burger and an Aztec Salad. Both options were FANTASTIC! The chef at this location must be top of his class, because we've had these at other locations, but they were so flavorful! Burger had the perfect juiciness, and the salad season was spot-on! We were hoping, being Eugene, that there would be a few more options for watering the dogs. Only one silver bowl was around, and it was already being used by another furry child. Parking was very convenient - curb parking out front, and a small lot out back. If you visit, be certain to check out the upstairs area. Pretty cool layout, and seating area! read more

If I could rate this service 0 stars I would. Our waitress did not check on us once. Drinks took 30 minutes. Appetizers took an hour. Food took 90 min. There was only two other tables with a full staff. We never got our waters refilled and had to ask for water in the first place. Food was cold. Our waitress did not walk by our table. Came here for an anniversary dinner and the service just absolutely ruined our night. got stuck here for two hours for no reason with hungry stomachs. Do better. read more

This vote is for our service today. Slow, patchy, inattentive, could not follow directions. Ambience at a McMenimans is always so creative. The drinks are great, the events are fun and the food solid and consistent. Service, however, is often much to be desired. This vote is for our service today. Slow, patchy, inattentive, could not follow directions. Unless our fellow was working a bunch of tables inside (note: there weren't many inside...) he was easily absent compared to another server who was working twice as many outside tabletops and making it around. read more

Was horrible even the salad. Service slow and unfriendly. Ambiance was a weird creepy vibe in this small old house with strange , creepy art. Was in a bad neighborhood. We didn't like anything about it! read more

Hope it was just my bad luck that night. I had come to think of McMenamins as always good but not this time. Fish and chips were overcooked and the burger was nearly bare after asking for extra grilled onion and mushrooms. read more

Randomly found McMenamins googling for "best burgers near campus" while I was visiting a family member. I'm so glad I did. This place is gold. The burger and fish & chips were excellent but the fresh pretzels were the star of the show. With the beer sauce, they were the best pretzels I've ever had, anywhere on 6 continents of travel. Maybe there are better pretzels in Antarctica but I doubt it. Our server Josh was totally chill, but the service was still extremely attentive. It's a balance that even fine dining establishments regularly fail to achieve. The restaurant is a little difficult to find because it's essentially in an old house, so it blends into the neighborhood, but it's worth the effort and an extra lap around the block to find it and park. This place is now on my family member's list and mine, too for my next visit. read more

There is always a good time to be had at a McMenamins. This location, like the rest of them, has a unique and pleasing atmosphere. The food is great. I've enjoyed burgers, sandwiches, and salads and most of the McMenamins. One of my favorite items at this location is the Blue Bayou salad. It is a filling salad full of romaine, bacon, chopped egg, blue cheese crumbles, tomato, and topped with blue cheese dressing. My table enjoyed many creative drinks as well. We found them refreshing. Check 'em out! read more

Wonderful ambience and a great location in downtown Eugene. Super friendly staff and a great selection of beers and ciders. In the winter you'll find several fireplaces blazing to keep you warm, and of course don't forget your passport stamp! Their tuna sandwich on sourdough is one of the best sandwiches I've had in Eugene, the deal is super strong and super flavorful! they're taught hold up better than anything else I've ever seen, they're even great hours later! read more

I've been to quite a few McMenamin's and this is one of my favorites. It's got a very comfortable/cozy feel to it that's intimate and relaxing at the same time. It's the perfect place to enjoy a good beer and conversation. The food has always been good. I love the Cajun tater tots. Burgers are always cooked well. Beer is great. I love their ruby beer. They have a nice outside area that's comfortable as well. It's lit at night, almost having a garden feel. I've never been there in the day time, so I can't say exactly what it looks like. Service can be touch and go, but if you're there to just relax with a good beer and not be disturbed, it's perfect. The bartenders are great. They know what they are doing and are both friendly and knowledgable. I've been coming here since I was legally old enough to drink and will continue to enjoy this restaurant. read more

Why is McMenamins always a roll of the dice? We decided to meet a few friends at this location yesterday. My friend was in a wheel chair due to having a stroke recently. Why in the WORLD is this place not ADA compliant? Sure....most businesses built before 1992 have to meet a different standard than newer businesses, but are you going to tell me that McMenamins has too tight of a budge to put in a ramp for people who are disabled? I'm pretty disgusted with them to be honest... On a plus side, the food was actually decent. I was happy about that. I wasn't happy about waiting for 20 minutes to get a beer (Hazy IPA was delicious), nor was waiting 30 min for the tab desired either. Food was good, beer was beer, and the service was incredibly slow, yet kind. It would be nice to see McMenamins be a little more consistent with service, and it would be REALLY cool to see all locations cater to folks with physical disabilities read more

Nice brewpub. Last night in Eugene and we wanted something a little more casual. This place is in an old house, lots of out seating in the front and back yards and the living room, dining room and other rooms in the house were indoor seating, parking could be problematic but maybe we just didn't know where to look. We found a space on the street right in front. Not a big beer person so I just had a Pilsner, which was quite nice. Another in out party is a beer snob and was very impressed with the IPA (Brut IPA I think) I had a burger that was done perfectly with a fried egg, sautéed onions and a wonderful potato bun, with of things, tater tots on the side Reminded me of being a kid and my parents went on date night, the only time we ever got tater tots. The best part of this place was the desserts - we had a stout ice cream float. Who would think that ice cream in a stout would go well together??? It was great, only problem was I was so full I didn't really enjoy it. Great brew pub, check it out, your time will not be wasted. read more

We called ahead to make sure they allow dogs, since we are on a road trip with our pup. They were super accommodating and lit the fire-pit in the back for us. We unknowingly came during happy hour so we got great really deals, but the prices weren't bad for non-happy hour times. If you come, get a burger! They were super tasty and the Cajun tots were the bomb. Happy hour flight has 6 pours was only 7$ and there's a Pokémon stop here heehee read more

Really bothers me when you go to a restaurant that says that they have a closing time of 11 o'clock but if you come in at 10:30 for food, your shit out of luck. When is management gonna tell their employees, that it's too bad that you want to go home early but we're open till a certain time so if someone comes in before that time, you serve them like everyone else. It wasn't five minutes before closing it was 25 minutes, I would've been out of there 10 minutes after 11 if that. Total bullshit. Now it's freezing outside and I won't make it in time to anywhere. That's actually open till 11. read more

Hubby and I were in Eugene for the day and decided to eat here for the first time. It was right at lunchtime, but we were able to find a table near the fireplace. Since it was our first time here, we weren't sure if we should seat ourselves and wait, so asked a rather harried server what to do, and she motioned us to just find a place. This restaurant is tastefully decorated, and on a cool day, the fireplace was wonderful. The restroom is located at the far end of the room past the fireplace. You have to ask for the code, but that's no biggie. The place was very busy, and it took quite a while for a server to get to us. But he was extremely friendly, and told us he'd get our food as soon as possible after we ordered. We had a fairly long wait, but he was attentive. When our food came, it was delicious. I adore sweet potato fries, and these were excellent. Hubby and I split a turkey/cranberry sandwich. It too, was delicious. He got the tater tots and we got an extra order of the fries, which no way could we finish. It was a good thing we split the sandwich because there's no way we each could've eaten a whole one. Our server apologized for the wait; it was obvious that the place was short-staffed, which is the only reason I didn't give five stars. He told us that it had been extremely quiet for hours until suddenly everyone showed up. The food was delicious, but even better was our server, Casey. He was patient with our questions even though he was really pressured for time (we tried to make them very brief). He served a lot of people with the same amount of courtesy that he gave us no matter how busy he was...and he was VERY busy. Kudos to him for a job extremely well done. read more

McMenamins is such a comfortable place to enjoy Happy Hour, hold a lunch meeting, get some work done, or simply get your drink on. In the winter, patrons can cozy up indoors, in warm wood booths or long tables by the fireplace. In the summer, the patio is strung with colorful lights, bursting with flowers, and dotted with happy patrons who chat at picnic tables shaded by large umbrellas, or over fire pits. The menu features classic American food- burgers, sandwiches, soups and loaded salads. McMenamins does its best to incorporate seasonal produce, dairy and meat from local and regional growers, and that effort and care shines through in taste- everything is noticeably fresh, if more salty and oily than I'd prefer. McMenamins price points make visits a rare treat (I like salads but am ambivalent about $14 salads), but when I do stop by, I remember what I'm truly paying for- the ambiance. There are few things better than sitting in a nook by the window with a mug of hot hard cider (complete with cinnamon stir stick) while the rain pours outside. Unless it's sitting out on the patio, surrounded by fragrant tulips, lavender and honeybees, enjoying a beer in 85 degree weather. McMenamins just *so* #Oregon. Gotta live #thatPNWlyfe. read more

McMenamins was a fine addition to my trip to Oregon! We had a fantastic time! It probably helped that we had been barhopping all day and were zesty when we walked in the door. We were a lively bunch, and probably being a bit louder than what one would consider an acceptable volume. Fortunately, we made the good decision to sit outside. Service was great. Our waiter rolled with the punches, and interacted well with our table...cracking jokes and having fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the food and the experience, and I would definitely return to this restaurant in the future! read more
