The service is fast and good, the employees engage and give samples. My family has come here for over 20 years. It has expanded and shifted, a Josephine County -country- staple. Could be a tad cleaner at times in areas where people dine/freshen up, but I believe that has to do with the amount of traffic the store receives. I always see whoever is working, working hard. *Dog friendly patio* *Public restroom, baby changing table inside*

YOU NEVER SAUSAGE A PLACE!!…read more I stop here whenever I am passing through the area. The place is very large. It's a full on meat store. They have sausage, of course, steaks, seafood, poultry, jerky, the works. They have a hard jerky and a soft jerky. I thought the hard jerky was too hard for me, but the soft jerky was perfect. I picked up some of the brisket jerky, the Japanese jerky, and their original jerky. Some of the items they make themselves, some of the items are brought in, but everything is good. They also have wines, sauces, condiments, the works. They also have a full on lunch counter, and in the back, for the kids or the kids at heart, they even have classic video games. Not only donkey Kong, but things such as pole position! They are $.50 now, instead of just a quarter, though.... I had the mushroom Swiss burger, with coleslaw, instead of fries on the side. The burger was done, medium, as I asked, and it was delicious! The coleslaw was very good, it was lightly dressed, and it was like a vinegar type dressing. The dressing wasn't too strong, it was just right. Lunch was a very large portion. Besides the jerky, I also got a blueberry sausage, and a chicken apple sausage, those are going to be excellent. For the quality of the things that you get get, the prices are reasonable. I will continue to stop here whenever I am passing through town. Thank you.

September 27, 2024, Cave Junction, OR…read more We stopped here after a tour and hike at the Oregon Caves, so we were a bit hungry, and pizza sounded good. Perfect choice! We ordered a small Deli Delight Pizza (linguica, mushrooms, pepperoni, olives, and pork sausage, $22). The pizza was delicious. Small was definitely enough for both of us, and we had some left to take home and munch on later. Their pizza is unique in that the sauce and toppings are spread all the way to the edge of the dough. The pizza is cut it into perfect-sized pieces, which they call the "party cut". From their website: "Owners Jerry and Bertha Miller tell the story: When they served their first pizza at the grand opening in 1975, a large crowd of helpers, friends and neighbors were present and waiting hungrily. So they chopped that first pizza into many pieces, so everyone could have a bite. It turned out to be a great way to serve pizza, especially to large parties." Well, we were only a party of two, but we loved the party cut. Service was good, and the pizza came out quickly. Glad we stopped in.

Let me start this off with, I typically love visiting small restaurants. I was really looking…read moreforward to trying The Landing North as it was recommended by some locals. Upon arriving the parking lot everything smelled pretty good, which was great. We checked in and waited over 30 minutes to be seated, busy night no reservation totally understandable. Once seated we sat there for almost another 40 minutes before a waitress would even look our way. I understand things get busy but walking past a table that has been waiting without even an acknowledgment, offer for a drink, or even a comment of "we'll be right with you" was definitely disappointing. Like I mentioned earlier, I usually love supporting small restaurants. And the food smelled good so we stayed waiting. We finally order our food, by then another half hour has passed before we get our food, which was overall underwhelming. I ordered a filet mignon which honestly seemed more like a sirloin. The crust and cook on it was good, although the flavor was lacking. I enjoyed their vegetables and mash potatoes far more than the steak itself. My partner ordered a prime rib whose only saving grace was the au jus it was served with. Overall, we felt very disappointed with the service. The food was okay but I personally wouldn't return considering the price point.

So...decent beer, meh to gross vegan food which is all they serve from the food truck, hideous political nonsense conversations amongst staff/owners which were horribly awkward, unnecessary and unsavory. But hey, who cares about customers comfortability! All of that together made for a very strange and unpleasant experience. It really is interesting that when people who have a business and rely solely on customers of all backgrounds and beliefs, feel the need to make bad decisions and mindlessly alienate others. I thought we were beyond alienating people for race, gender, religion, sexuality and politics. Again, I guess not. I see they have great reviews, so I know they must've had common sense and customer care once upon a time. The blue shirts they wear are ridiculous too.

The place was super busy when I arrived there were people waiting outside, which is always a good sign but since I was dining solo, I got seated right away with no wait at all. The atmosphere inside is warm, cozy, and welcoming, with really cool décor featuring cars and car photos that give the restaurant personality and a fun, nostalgic vibe. It feels comfortable rather than fancy, the kind of place where you can relax, sip your coffee, and enjoy your food without feeling rushed. I ordered the shrimp and Swiss cheese omelette with jalapeño, and it was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and perfectly cooked. The portion was generous, and it came out piping hot and surprisingly fast considering how busy they were. The coffee was amazing too rich, fresh, and exactly what you want with a hearty breakfast. What really stood out was the service. The servers were attentive, friendly, and on top of everything despite the crowd. They made sure coffee stayed filled, checked in at the right moments, and kept things moving smoothly without making it feel rushed or chaotic. Another big plus: the prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and portion sizes. It's rare to find a place that balances great food, fast service, cozy ambiance, and affordability this well. Overall, I'd easily rate it around 4.5 stars. If you're driving along Highway 101 or anywhere near Brookings, this spot is absolutely worth the stop. It's busy for a reason great food, great vibe, and great service all in one place.

The market & deli across the street didn't have any non-junk food to feed our hungry kids for dinner so we wandered over to McGrew's. We didn't know we were walking in 5 minutes before closing, and would have completely understood if we'd been turned away. But the lone waitress, Vanessa, welcomed us in with a smile. Vanessa, whose personality sparkled as much as her glittery makeup, was an absolute delight and SO funny. She's the kind of small town waitress you read about in the great American novel. The one you remember years after the meal is over. The food was delicious and hand-delivered to our table by the chef and was devoured by us all. Next time we're passing through Oregon, we'll make it a point to eat here again. McGrew's is a real diamond in the rough.
