The Brass Monkey was a great little stop for us. We were up from San Diego to watch some softball at OSU and wanted a late snack and drink. The pickle chips and house potato chips are both highly recommended and were cooked to perfection. We had the Brass Monkey drink, which was not to strong, but super refreshing and would recommend to anyone who likes a whiskey drink. read more

Great little bar hole, like a movie set, the furnishings were clearly designed to reflect a sort of garage/punk-ish music vibe but still welcoming to college town families. Loved it. Chicken nachos were a generous portion, easy to share with three people. The corn fritters were a delight - something different and delish for bar food. It is an order-at-the-bar establishment, so no true table service. Still pleasant overall. read more

Cool little hole in the wall place. We had the loaded fries, Poke bowl, hangover and Cobb salad which all came out looking and tasting good. I would stop imagining Im Corvallis read more

On a Labor Day evening walked in for the first time. Extremely eclectic decor, a few tables and a few booths. Ample stocked bar, your basic good pub food. Some local delights, the menu is a couple of pages with your higher end standards. The service was quick and the food came out hot and appropriate order. Nothing was forgotten and was quite a pleasant experience. I will be back to have some more of their variations, they have two or three different Mac and cheese options which is always a favorite for me. read more

I had a drink with Trix cereal and fell in love. The corn fritters were amazing, fried dough can't go wrong, in my humble opinion. Someone ordered a salad and it looked good! I can't remember what my main entree was but my partner had the burger and " it was iiiight. " - direct quote. If you're reading this you're probably a parent touring the college looking for somewhere to eat, this may be a little more bar - esque but go crazy! celebrate that you raised a kid and that they're moving out. Yay you! read more

Stopped in for a late night dinner. Minors are allowed until close. Small indoor dining area (large groups might find this difficult location), but some tables sat six people. Seating options very eclectic! Varied (and tasty!) menu--place order @ bar; staff brings out food when ready. Wide range of drink options as well--AND fresh squeezed lemon-aid. Would return! read more

Very cute spot on the waterfront! Went for a Saturday lunch, and you order at the bar which took awhile with one bartender/cashier. I got the Poké Bowl which was very fresh and tasty. The bowl made it a little hard to mix the ingredients in, but that's my only criticism. My friend order the Veggie burger with cheese. She said the sandwich was flavorful, however would've subbed the Potato Chips next time since they were overly seasoned. Definitely will have to come and try some other dishes! read more

This place looks amazing. It's has a lot of charm and a lot of nooks for cozy seating. The menu looks great and there are plenty of cocktails to choose from. Note: you order your food at the bar so don't expect the busy waitstaff to track you down to order. The frickles were the fan favorite of the night with a tasty batter and a deliciously spicy sauce. The burger was also good and the egg perfectly cooked but the chicken sandwiches were "meh." The size was pretty generous but the chicken was over fried, giving it an unpleasant charred taste. The roasted sandwich was much better, but a little dry. We will return because the overall impact was positive, but we will try something else in the menu. I should also note that the lone floor waitstaff was pulled in a lot of different directions but she remained friendly and approachable. Kudos to her for wrangling the wants of a full room! Three sammies with fries, an app, two cocktails, and a soda= $88 before the tip. read more

Although a VERY hot day at 105°, we decided To venture out along the riverwalk. The Brass Monkey looked very much a nice place to sip something cold. It was a bit warm Inside so the menu was a "cold menu" We both ordered a Cobb salad. One of the best Cobb salads we ever had. Highly recommend! read more

First time in Corvallis on business and a co-worker and I took a stroll along the Willamette River walking path and noticed The Brass Monkey. It's a cool, interestingly decorated little place! The food is very good with a wide variety of cocktails and brews. Service is great, as well. read more

Love the ambiance - unique seating options while great posters and pictures hang on the walls. Great service...kind and efficient! Food was delicious...I got the pulled pork sandwich and my friend got the chicken sandwich. I imagine this place is packed on a weekend evening but for lunch on a Monday in the summer, it was great! read more

This evening was on a mission looking for bbq. I found this place on Yelp & it's conveniently located in downtown. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich & it was tasty but seemed like the meat was a little bit "old" & probably had been cooking all day. The 1 bartender & 1 server were very welcoming & friendly. The place was packed & they had 70's v version of the Price is Right with Bob Barker playing. The ambience was incredible & the place was packed. I told the server I will definitely b back when my sister visits from ABQ! Right across from river park & next door to a homemade ice cream shop.i read more

Best Cobb salad ever. I come here when in Corvallis just for this! Drinks are fab too.

Cool vibe and great service. Food is heavy but perfect if you're looking for nachos and indulgence. Nice they have games too.

The Brass Monkey is more of a pub like eatery. There is a decent menu with very good food and a full bar that also offers specialty drinks. It definitely has that 'College Town' feel. Grab a menu at the door, seat yourself, order and pay at bar, this place is a modernist throwback to the 70's & 80s. The overhead music is also of the era including hits from British Punk, Americana and the like. The walls are decorated with skateboard memorabilia, Elvis is there, Bruce Lee, vintage photos.. The burgers come with house made chips. You can upgrade to those fantastic battered fries though. The chips are fantastic homemade seasoned slices of potatoes that come in a generous portion. They really are unique in that you will not find any chips anywhere with this semi salty semi barbecue flavor. They have to be experienced to understand the flavor profile. The loaded fries came in a crispy batter, pieces of bacon, a dollop of sour cream and chives with melted cheese. This is an appetizer that is huge. Share it or you take the rest home, it is a large portion. I had the Pub burger. It came out with a nice beef flavor and not over seasoned. I like the mix of a hot beef patty with cold crisp fresh shredded lettuce, tomato and onion on a seedless bun. It wasn't so oversized that you couldn't pick it up. It was nice to have a burger that wasn't totally messy. It was well constructed and very flavorful. The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is inviting. I would definitely go back. read more

I ordered the portobello nacho platter I did not realize it would have jalapeno peppers on it, but no big deal, I set them to the side. After consuming 1/4 of the dish I began to feel the burn. Not in my mouth, but in my stomach. I can tolrate some hot spices, but this was worse. Usually there is a warning on a menu for extra spicey dishes. Not so here. And since they do not use waiters, no caution was given when ordering. Kind of ruined my night. read more

We took my cousin here for her birthday. Everyone loved it! 10/10 would recommend. The non alcoholic drinks are a great choice read more

Ambiance was good, service was adequate but the food was terrible, with exception of the fries, those were perfect. My burger was a hard, burned up hockey puck. Hands down the WORST burger I've ever had, especially for $25. My companion had a bacon grilled cheese she didn't eat and some others at the table had hockey puck burgers and the Mac and cheese. Was incredibly disappointing. Looked forward to trying this place for a few weeks. they were out of their famous fish and chips so I thought a burger was a safe second choice. No, and I'm guessing the fish isn't that good either. read more

The food and ambiance were awesome! Came in for late lunch- such fun decor! My daughter and I enjoyed the 5-bean burger, chicken strips, fries, and the homemade chips! Also enjoyed the local Chardonnay. The staff was friendly and helpful when asked... read more

I don't understand why the bartender is taking food and drink orders all the while trying to make the drinks. Wanted another drink but didn't want to wait in line just for a beer. Had the chicken wings and they tasted like freezer burn. read more

We've eaten at this restaurant about a dozen times over the years, ever since the restaurant opened, hoping that it would improve. It has not. The menu is not extensive, and the food they serve is just so-so, and it's inexpensive. They never ever have had enough staff on shifts; consequently, service is very slow. It's always very noisy inside when the place is even half full. We are not going back to this restaurant ever again. There are better places in town to eat. read more

Good food, good service, decent selection of local beers on tap. I'll be back when visiting OSU!

A great pllace for dinner. Great cocktails, great food, a bit of a grungy college town feel to it. Pretty friendly staff.

Amazing food. Multiple choices. All fresh. Service is excellent. I will definitely eat here again. read more

Very good service for and order at the Bar place. At first I wasn't quite sure but the bartender and the server that brought out food changed my mind right away. Great place to hang out and enjoy a relaxing afternoon. The food was solid, chicken sandwich was huge, the pull pork was delicious and the smoked Gouda Mac & Cheese is delicious. read more

The service was great. The outside seating is pet friendly which I needed. Table was dirty. A lot of foot traffic walking by, which I could have done without. Had bees interested in food and drink and ants on the table, but that's probably anywhere with outdoor seating this time of year. Food was just okay. Salad was not crisp at all, completely wilted, and the tomatoes were mealy. Probably would not go back. read more
