It was a dark and stormy night. I had dinner here and at the Bar last Saturday night, while ducking the rain coming and going. I found the service to be a little detached and slow at time, but their signature pasta dish (and one of their beers) was very good and the right amount of food. read more

As far as McMenamins locations go, the aesthetic here is cool. Our food was standard pub fare which was on par with all the other locations. I would've liked the drinks to be poured a little stronger, but who wouldn't! The service we got was quick and friendly. Pretty average experience. read more

I love mcmenamins, this place was very cute on the outside. Vines on the building giving it a magical look, and outside seating for my dog. I really liked the shrimp sliders, love the Cajun tots, and I always recommend the passport. read more

The service was ok, but the food quality was not. For 20.00 you would expect a good hamburger, but it was smaller than usual, and a bit dry. With it can a pile of barely warm shoestring fries. read more

Great place! This is a go-to place for me. Love the atmosphere. Always had good service.

We sat outside around 4 PM on a Monday, it was a beautiful area on their patio with lots of seating. We ordered a basket of tater tots from the happy hour menu, it was a large serving and just perfect. Great service, will be back! read more

Nice ambiance. Good rotating menu, often changing. Good service. Nice and unique decor. Good selection of libations. Definitely recommend for small family, couples or business meals. Parking lot is too dark for the feeling of security and safety. read more

The place was a little tucked away, so be aware when arriving. Great decor for a restaurant. I came in to join some friends, waited a little longer than you should have to wait for service, someone said our server was on a break.. but overall it was a good meal. The cauliflower soup was awesome. read more

Brought my parents here when they came to town. We all got a little bit of everything. Drinks were great lots of choices, food was really good also great options and the service was good. We came at the tail end of happy hour on a Saturday and plenty of seating. We will be back to try more off the menu! The restaurant is a good size, lot's of seating. read more

I liked it! It's been almost 2 years since I've been there - but I got a very nice turkey sandwich and fries

Loved the happy hour ahi tuna sliders! Friendly service. Cozy atmosphere. Great place to hang out. read more

Im DONE ordering food from here! Every single time I order food from here my burger is RARE and my tots don't have Cajun seasoning and there overcooked... i pacifically order my burger WELL DONE and my tots with Cajun seasoning. This has happened to me multiple times ordering from this location. Do better.. You are taking hard peoples earning money and not giving them the quality what they are paying for. read more

McMenamins John Barleycorns - I did not order a rare burger. I ordered a well done burger. - Pubs Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

Everything was delicious. The ranch was out of this world. We Loved the booths our server was very friendly and attentive.

First of all food slapped me so hard in the face. It was so good and second of all we had the best waiter ever his name was Jesse. Shout out to him bro cooked. The food was also cooked too lol I love McMenamins. Please come here. In the place was so tidy clean nothing here. Looks like it was 1 billion years old, which was so cool. read more

Came over to passport book stamping. At the same time take pictures of the interior. A lot of nice artwork. There seems to be a fireplace in the back of the restaurant right by patio area. You walked into the bar area and there are plenty of seating and parking. This Mcmenamins is at its own location. Not in a strip mall. In a corporate area. Reminds me of downtown Beaverton area. read more

Consistent Mcmenamins as usual but you have to like their beer and their food and I generally don't, but when someone says let's meet there I'm like sure .... read more

Ambiance was great, as always. The hummus plate and tender basket were both fresh and delicious. No complaints!

came in as party of four, the place is beautiful but the service isn't great. One of us got food poisoning. we had to get up to order our own stuff, asking for napkins + ketchup. drinks are poured very lightly for how expensive each is, and the wording for the happy hour menu is intentionally misleading read more

Kim and I love John Barleycorn of McMenamins property... Barleycorn, which refers to the barley used in malt liquor, is a term that brings joy and excitement. At John Barleycorns, you'll discover an inviting space filled with warmth and comfort, complete with dark wood accents and adorned by a striking cathedral ceiling. Outside, lush greenery surrounds the terrace area, creating a serene ambiance perfect for sipping McMenamins-strength ales or spirits. Deanna at the bar is awesome... read more

Super sad. For the third time on Door Dash, we didn't receive the 2 orders of Ruby. We are forced to order food and always get tater tots. The last of 5 times, the driver shows up with just the cold tots. Due to this being the third time, we will no longer try. Super super super sad, as Ruby is my absolute FAVORITE, but we are unable to drive to pick up. read more

I LOVE McMenamins and their food. I wanted a good burger and knew this was the spot, but it was my first time trying this McMenamins. Everybody was so friendly when I called in to order take out and when I walked out the door. I ordered my burger medium. I get home and my burger was way over well done to the point where I couldn't finish it. I have never had a burger SO overcooked, it's disappointing. I also asked for Cajun tots, they charge extra for Cajun tots and they gave me regular ones. Overall, I'm disappointed with their food! read more

McMenamins John Barleycorns - Ordered it medium. Not well done but congratulations. - Pubs Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

My boyfriend and I frequented this spot often the last few years, but within the past year have come back less and less due to the service being incredibly slow. The last time we were here it easily took 15-20 minutes just to be greeted and another 15 or more for our order to be taken and was not given silverware or condiments without asking for it from the bar. We wanted to give it one more try since not being here for about 6 months or so since that happened, and again weren't greeted at all for 15 almost 20 minutes, so we left due to not even being greeted or any sort of acknowledgment after being sat. It sucks because they weren't even busy at all lol. read more

Parking is always available, but the staff and the food---that's the real reason we come. Whether inside or out, the staff is attentive and knowledgeable of the menu with all the yummy goodness to eat and drink. Great atmosphere and even better food and crafts! read more

McMenamins John Barleycorns - Cider with a view - Pubs Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

To an out of towner, I was confused if I was going to Barleycorn's or McMenamins. Anyways, after a little history I came to appreciate what the McMenamins ownership does,which is take historic buildings and make them into various themed bars throughout the area. The building itself was really neat but the food and service was average. I appreciate checking out a unique offering to the area, but think there are others more worth your time. read more

Sad to say, the Mcmenamen's chain has discontinued one of their best items...the fresh cut French fries. The substitute frozen fries are no where close! It used to be fun to order some hamburgers and beer and order two or three baskets of the fries for our group of six or eight. But the heart of the gathering is gone and it doesn't sound like it is coming back. So our once monthly gathering is switching to pizza until we find another great burger and beer joint. read more

I live Mcmenamins. I've been to this location twice, summer and winter. I live their outdoor seating. Indoor seating is dark, warm and intimate. Great food, great service read more

My friend James brought me here and we sat on the deck. It's kind of a smaller location but the deck is worth it. It was slow when we showed up and that was awesome. We were seated emidiatly. Menu's brought and drinks ordered. Our waitress was great. It was a warm day and the steady water flow was appreciated. I wasn't getting all proper, I had a Ruby Ale. It was bomb of course. I forgot what my friends burger was called but he looked sleepy after trying to eat it and his fries. It did look delicious but the world around me faded hard when our waitress sat my Portland Dip in front of me. Au ju dipping sauce. Grilled Turkey, onions, cheese. Oh ya, there was cheese. Don't feel sorry for my sandwich. It knew how it looked when it left the kitchen. All hot and juicy. Oh you brought fries as well! Let's do this! And that was that. My friend told me after we ate, he was going to say something to me while I ate but knew I wouldn't listen. He was correct. It was all fries, dipping sauce and guttural noises. Thanks John Barleycorns, I'll be back. My Wife wants to check it out. read more

Ah, John Barleycorns, how I love thee. This is a great McMenamins stop when in the Tigard area. Conveniently located near a business park section of the town it's easy for me to get to. I've stopped here many times. One of the things I loved about their menu is that they have sliders on the happy hour menu. Other McMenamins may have them but this is one place I keep coming back to for them. Their fries are always good (but that's dangerous too) because you usually cannot leave them on the table. They have a main dining area and a bar area which is nice. They also have a nice outdoor space on the north side of the building with a lot of trees and outdoor furniture in the warmer months. A really nice respite for some dinner and drinks. I hope to come back sometime soon (post-pandemic) to drop in. read more

McMenamins John Barleycorns - Bar - Pubs Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

Mcminamins has a special place in my heart! Stumbled upon this gem on a road trip 4 years ago and came back on a recent visit to Portland. It did not disappoint! The wait staff are very friendly and knowledgeable! We had a beer flight, the curried black bean stew, and el Diablo. The curry was at the rec of our server. Great recommendation! It has this smokey flavor that really sets it off-- very filling. And their fries are a must have!! I really can't name a better french fry! (Lol!) The flight came with 6 of any beer (emphasis on any). No one is wearing a mask. They have a patio, which makes it feel safer. Overall great service and bomb @$$ bar food! read more

Solid McMenamims location with a great salon and patio. All kinds of seats available. Food is always great and consistent.

We highly recommend coming to John Barleycorns Ask for Jesse. He is phenomenal, and so is the show.

We stopped in for happy hour to find that their happy hour menu not only has hardly any options, but is hardly a discount at all these days. We ordered a burger with Cajun tots along with a the TNT basket and everything was just... not well cooked. Tots and chicken were undercooked, burger was soggy from the amount of sauce on it. The Cherry hard cider was a win at least. read more

Service was amazing, kitchen not so much. Again we ordered a sandwich with no onions and again the cook put onions on the sandwich. Onions make me SICK! This is why I ask for NO onions. This happens every time. Do they not read what is on the order or just throw everything together. Ordered the shrimp in butter sauce. It was more like a soup not a sauce. A sauce is thick and rich not runny like water. That part was very disappointing. The positive is It was loaded with great tender shrimp. Kitchen needs to pay more attention to what people are requesting. Hopefully this review will get back to the kitchen in management and more care will be taken. read more

Good food and good service. They have a semi open kitchen which was clean when I took a peak inside and the food came out fast and hot. The servers/bartenders were attentive and made us feel comfortable and at home. This is one of the better McMenamins in the area. Looking forward to coming back in the spring with the patio is a little more inventing and not so cold. read more

This was a stop on the way home from visiting one of the pumpkin patches in the area. We were there to collect our stamp and decided to grab lunch. We stood at the door for 10 minutes before someone even acknowledged us. They cleaned a table and sat us, another 7 minutes went by before anyone came to get our drink order. We usually pack a little extra patience these days since everyone is short staffed but there were plenty of staff, they just seemed to be a little rude. Lunch was ok but the place looks very dirty like it could use a good cleaning. We will never return to this location ever again since there are so many others that are way more inviting and the people are actually a lot nicer. The Hot Buttered Rum wasn't even made right. Such an all around sad experience at this location. If you have an open kitchen with plain view of patrons you should probably keep it cleaner than the current condition. Gross!!

Overpriced and salty. Maybe I need to give it another go but I've been a handful of times and I'm not impressed. I don't drink alcohol so maybe that's the problem. Going there just for food is not my first choice. read more

Just got the McMenamin's passport a few months ago and since we aren't from Oregon or Washington, I always try to convince the hubby to have a meal or drink at one of em so that I can get stamp/s. We were on our road trip to California and this location is located south of downtown Portland and near I-5 South so we figured it was a food pitstop for us since we were both craving their tater tots. Upon entering, there was a sign to seat yourselves so we found a table near the window. As expected from a McMenamins, service can be quite spotty mainly because there are only a few servers covering several tables at a time. Our server was very nice and friendly but it took a while to get menus, place an order, etc because she was busy tending to other tables as well. I ordered 1/2 Tuna sandwich with cajun tots while the hubby ordered a Smoke House Turkey Dip. My tuna was good, a bit too much mayo but it was tasty. Loved the tater tots but would've wanted it a bit hotter when it was served to us -- it wasn't warm anymore. The ranch dip was delicious (my fave!). Hubby was okay with his sandwich, nothing noteworthy to share. The peppermint mocha was deliciousy alcoholic. Overall, I was glad to try this place but our lunch took longer than expected as everything just a bit slow. read more
