The barkeep was very attentive and talked with me about classic cocktails and hard to find liquors. We shared some love for The Botanist Gin and gave a shout-out to those monks for the Chartreuse. The vintage TV was playing Beetlejuice, and this was immediately loved by all the patrons. This bar feels chill and inviting all at once. It's small and yet so big in personality. You can even order a pizza if you're hungry. I didn't because the cocktails were on point, and we didn't save room. They have fresh squeezed juice for every cocktail and lots of fun tinctures. You'll find something to tickle your fancy. Your barkeep is willing to work with you. The menu has lots to offer too, including a fun happy hour. What are you waiting for? Get in here.

They offer drink deals everyday, but the best day is Tiki Tuesday, when they offer a special drink and food menu. Beware this day can get pretty busy though, especially in the spring. Given its location to OSU, this place attracts a younger crowd.

Rainy Day, Great Bar Seat, and One Memorable Meal…read more It was a cold, rainy Oregon afternoon when I stumbled into Castor, and I'm glad I did. There happened to be one open seat at the bar, which is my favorite place to dine when traveling. Sitting at the bar lets you talk story with the bartender, learn the menu, and watch the cocktails come together. If you're eating alone, I highly recommend grabbing a seat here. The bartender was friendly, easy to talk with, and clearly knew both the menu and the craft behind the bar. One thing that stood out right away was their use of fresh local ingredients, which really shows up in the flavor of the dishes and drinks. I started with the Golden Manhattan, made with a pecan-infused bourbon that was fantastic. It had a rich, slightly nutty flavor with warm vanilla notes and just the right touch of sweetness. Smooth, balanced, and a great way to kick off the meal. Alongside that I ordered the chorizo clam chowder, which brought a creamy base with just the right amount of spice from the chorizo. Comfort food with a little personality. For dinner I switched gears and ordered the Creole Sour. This one really stood out. Bright citrus up front, a smooth bourbon backbone, and a subtle spice note that tied perfectly into the Creole theme. It had that classic sour balance, tart, slightly sweet, and refreshing without overpowering the drink. Dinner was the gumbo with hot bread and butter, and it delivered. Deep flavor, a nice slow warmth from the spice, and hearty enough to make the rainy Oregon weather feel like part of the experience. To finish things off I kept it simple with a neat pour of Ben Holladay, which made for the perfect nightcap. The staff were welcoming and relaxed, which made the whole experience feel easy and comfortable. This is the kind of place that works whether you're dining solo, meeting friends, out with someone special, or grabbing dinner with a group. The price point landed right where it should be for the quality of food, cocktails, and service. If you're in Corvallis and can grab a seat at the bar at Castor, take it. Order a cocktail, settle in, and enjoy the ride. It turned a rainy afternoon into one heck of a meal.
