Reviews
"Kelley was amazing! We went in for burgers and my friend asked for her burger to be lettuce wrapped and if there was anything else with gluten the burgershe ordered. Kelley was able to help her find a new sauce on the burger because there was gluten in the sauce. She was extremely helpful with the modifications to the meal. Despite the reasurant being super pack the food came out timely and delicious. This is definitely one of the better locations for McMenamins."
"The food at this location has really gone downhill. I've been to a few other locations and the food has been disappointing but, this was probably the worst I've had. I don't know what is going on with this franchise but, maybe they need to pay their cooks better or buy better ingredients. The service was the usual, they hide for a while after you show up and when it's time to get the check. I get they think it's casual dining but, maybe they can work on slightly better timing. Anyway, really they need to fix the food. I'm getting less likely to suggest this place after several attempts at getting satisfactory food here."
"Awesome Mcmenamins!! Such a great experience here - the staff are so nice. Great location / ambiance in a nice historic old house. Has the classic Mcmenamins vibe and some of the best service in the company. Nice specials here and lots of cool places to chill and eat. Cozy and beautiful."
"Stop by on our roadtrip home and so glad that we did! Great location with incredible history! Our waitress was INCREDIBLE! So much fun and gave us so many helpful hint and information about our passport! We had our dogs with us so sat on the back patio and Gina offered to light us a fire AND brought us cups of warm water to hold so our hands wouldn't get cold! Hands down the BEST service we have ever experienced at a McMenamins!"
"I have a dog and heard that their patio was pet friendly. When we got there we were told, understandably, that outdoor dining wasn't at full service due to heat and we'd have to go in to order. In the middle of deciding. A waiter comes with water and a water dish for my dog and is ready to take our order. He wasn't pushy or rushing and we all felt very comfortable and at home while we ordered and ate. The waiter was beyond what we expected and couldn't have been happier. The atmosphere was nice: backyard picnic with lights strung everywhere. Their burgers and fish were some of the best I've tasted in a while and their bartender's skills are on point; great cocktails. Overall we loved our experience at McMenamins and have decided to make it our official meet up spot. I hope this review gets them as much business as they deserve. Thanks for the spectacular evening guys!"
