    Glad to be here for Moms birthday
    Holly J.

    We have attended several events here and just gone for the heck of it for lunch and dinner. They have a really wonderful menu and I especially like the burnt and sandwiches and the giant pretzels. They have great iced tea. They have incredible desserts and I am told the beer selection is really good. We have had their pizzas and several other items on the menu. We have been coming here about eight years now I think this review is long overdue. Definitely would try the menu out at least come for lunch. You will be back for dinner. They have a wonderful outdoor space that's been there since Covid that has lots of sunlight and plenty of room to just breathe and stretch out Personally I like the tables and booths inside. They're a little more cozy to my liking. Definitely worth a stop. The service is great. The staff are very helpful and always willing to help you figure out what to try if you're not sure.

    This little spot is in Camas. Close to the mill. It has a huge outdoor area and also plenty of room in different spaces inside. They have a huge selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. My friend and I came for lunch today. We stopped iced tea, but it was very tasty and was refilled many times. We each had a house salad, which was very large with fresh ingredients. Chicken wings were out of this world! They are having made, and crispy, tender, and spicy. We shared a Hawaiian pizza. They do is really tasty. Crispy but has a lot of texture. Topping is fresh and delicious. Definitely will be coming back here. They have a cool area with a stage to have music. Check it out when you're down an Camas. !

    Never disappoints! Great food and a wide beer and spirits selection. The service is always quick and the restaurant is always clean.

    We came here on a whim as we drove by and thought "What a neat name." The experience was fun. The beer list is incredible, and the burgers and pizzas were delicious. We had a fantastic meal, and had beers to go (in crowlers). I wish parking was a little easier around the place, but that's not their fault, that's just part of being in downtown Camas. It was a fun time, and the food was amazing. We will definitely be back and will bring friends :)

    Let me just say, the combo of #40 & #43 taste like Starburst. Thanks, Stacy!!! We got the Cider flight and loved the selection. (Drinking rn. Will update later)

    The biggest issue with A Beer at a Time is that they do not have any sort of social distancing or mask policy whatsoever, so if you're at all anxious about potential exposure, steer clear. With that said, the staff regularly sprayed the tables down with a very peculiar-smelling cleaner (think "port-a-potty deodorizer") that left an odd, chalky tackiness to the thickly lacquered tables, tended to linger in the air for quite a while, and occasionally burned my eyes. The tables are charming and are literally single large slabs of lumber. The benches are also long, single slabs, making for a jostling experience when anybody sits down or gets up. A Beer at a Time doesn't seem to offer much for non-beer drinkers. The menu has a wide variety of items, and I opted for a Margherita pizza. For what it cost (very pricey for its size), it should have tasted a lot better than it did. The sauce was bland and watery, the mozzarella didn't melt super well, and tasted like sliced store-bought part-skim, low-moisture fare. The crust also had a weird, unsalted saltine cracker flavor. If you're into beer (I'm not), A Beer at a Time would probably be quite to your liking. I've never seen as large a selection as that offered here. I came here to see one of my favorite bands play. As a concert venue, it leaves a lot to be desired. Despite the acoustic treatments on the ceiling and walls, the acoustics are terrible. All of the tables and seats in the area with the stage are all oriented 90 degrees to the stage, meaning that none of the seats actually face the stage. Patrons must either turn their heads to the left or to the right to see the performers. This area is also dominated by two very long "community" tables that are honestly too big for area with the rest of the seats and tables that line the walls. These were both completely full of patrons who clearly had no interest in seeing the band, and once the band started playing, they raised their voices to shout at each other accordingly. The only reason I'll come back is to see bands play. I'll try different menu items to see if they fare any better. If you're a beer enthusiast who likes quaint pubs, you'll likely love this place. If not, A Beer at a Time will likely disappoint.

    Philly Cheese Steak is not grilled steak. It's chopped up roast beef deli slices.

    I was robbed here tonight. Ordered a Philly Cheesesteak for $17. Did not receive grilled steak, but instead chopped up slice of cheap, low quality roast beef from the deli. Served with a side of cold fries. Checked their website and it turns out that's how it was meant to be. Pic doesn't even hide it. Beer selection is good though!

They have a unique menu in the Lounge, and the wings are superior! And the sauce is amazing. I also love how the drinks (Tiki) are listed with a "moon," to show you how strong they are, super helpful when deciding. Cause if you like it strong, you know what to get or if want a lighter drink, as Tiki can be intense, you don't end up sabotaging yourself. Haha. I wish there was a half star option, as the only real ding here was that they don't seat in the lounge without your whole party (and yes, I get that there's a time limit, so I suppose that they are trying to make sure everyone has time), but, there's nowhere to wait, so was left standing by the door for some time. Offer to seat me in the bar or something, was very awkward to just keeping shuffling around when people are coming in and out.

I asked the woman who answered the phone if they use cinnamon to catch their drinks on fire. She said "we have a drink on our menu with a cinnamon stick in it." I tried to clarify the question, & was immediately met with attitude followed by "yes there is cinnamon in the drink." I was frustrated, thanked her & hung up. No answers. My friend decided to try themselves stating that maybe they were misunderstanding the question. A different person answered, he explained that he was planning on coming in with someone with a cinnamon allergy & asked the question yet again. Further asking if it was only in the speakeasy or also the main restaurant. They responded stating "yeah, We have cinnamon in our building. I don't think we are the place for you" & continued to hangup. SO if anyone has any answers that would be great as we still haven't gotten any. We DID go in. I was hoping we would be able to see for ourselves & had been looking forward to checking it out. Sat in the main restaurant & received slow service in an empty restaurant from a server that was standoffish & made it seem as though we were a burden. Decided that we would go somewhere else instead. We each had one drink & left. I left 2 stars because i like the ambience & understand people have bad days. Although i also work in the service industry & know that i myself wouldn't try to make someone else feel like this.

They were absolutely fantastic; we had seen their R&B songs before online, and they were great. But when they arrived for the party it was clear that they had added new members, especially in their horn section. Wow! All of their songs just popped. Even though it was a 100 degree day, the outside dance floor (under a tent, luckily) was packed for all of their songs. My mom and my new in-laws, all in their 70's or 80's, were dancing along with everyone. Absolutely the best live R&B we've heard. McMenamin's has a Good Neighbor policy that limits noise past 10pm; the Kats were understanding about this but they were genuinely having a great time - and so were we - and were disappointed they couldn't keep playing so we could keep dancing. Several of our guests were so impressed that they are planning to (or already have) booked the Kats for upcoming parties. Dan, our contact (and the drummer), was a pleasure to work with. He returned messages within a day at the latest, was really accommodating and helpful. This band is a terrific choice for any of your events where you want guests to smile, tap their feet, cheer, and dance! We had a wonderful time, and you will too. Thanks Kats for making our wedding reception amazing!

The Edgefield is right at the top of these favorites, and the Black Rabbit is a great spot for any meal at any time of day you choose. Service is always top-notch, and I've never had a meal here I didn't like. They have a great morning Bloody Mary that is garnished well enough to be a full breakfast. But for a less alcohol, alcoholic option, the menu overall is very good and I recommend you work your way through it. Given the restaurant chain's overall kitch , the ambience inside this restaurant is calm and welcoming but just funky enough to be fun. If you're staying here, eat here. If you're in the area, try it out. I'll be back the next time. I'm anywhere near Troutdale.

Lovely. We could see a fountain. There was also a fireplace near us, which was a nice touch. Service was OK. A little bit slow, and in my opinion, the server was not well trained in basic table service. I would expect a bit better in such a nice location with a lovely restaurant. We both had coffee with plenty of cream. We asked what the soup was, the server didn't know if they had soup. A few minutes later, she returned to say they only had clam chowder. Which is exactly what my friend had had there before and wanted. After a long wait, a very nice bowl of clam chowder was served. It was a healthy portion and came with some oyster crackers. Very tasty. I ordered the roasted beef salad. The beats were on top of a bed of totally overdressed spinach for my taste. The beats were nicely roasted, and there were plenty of them. Candied pecans as well. Not a lot of feta. Pickled onions on top. It was OK only I would not order that again. My friend got the Caesar salad, which was very nice. The croutons were light and crunchy. We also had some bread that came with olive oil and vinegar. This item was fine, not great. The clam chowder was $10 for a bowl and it was the best thing that I had. We had to ask for a refill on our coffee, and also to clear some plates away that were finished. We did stay for a very long time. My friend felt relaxed there and was talking to me quite a bit. I do appreciate that we were not rushed out, however, it was not busy. We were never offered dessert. Perhaps we would've enjoyed that. I see myself returning, if my friend would like to.

I had a particular request, I ordered the prawn shrimp Louie salad, and my request was that the kitchen take the tails off of the prawns for me. I just really hate having to do that myself at a restaurant and getting my fingers all messy. Plus I was wearing white. So you see, diva treatment was necessary. Everyone at the table except my mom ordered salads and got their food first. Ta da! Rory and the kitchen totally came through for me. No tails on my prawns. The salad was beautifully presented.

I will say this, the service at the Hickory, the ambience overlooking the beautiful golf course and I confided in Rory that the prawn shrimp Louie was the best salad I've ever had. Seriously, the best. I hope the weather is nice towards the end of September so we can take my dad there for his birthday. Fore! now I'll just daydream about that awesome salad.
