The waiters were FANTASTIC and so was the food! The view from the outdoor seating was very nice and the whole restaurant was very clean and nice read more

There was a really nice worker who went above and beyond by taking orders after the deadline (but try to order before the deadline at 10:30), answering questions with ease, being patient, and giving extra sauces in the bag. Although I wasn't there for long, as it was a pick-up order, the place looked interesting with a peaceful vibe that makes you want to stay for a drink, which they serve at their bar. They also have canned drinks which have a unique & awesome style. There was a bit too much bacon on their B.L.T, but the tater tots were good. read more

Stopped by for another visit, with my wife this time. We sat at the bar and really enjoyed the atmosphere. Of course the staff was most gracious and prompt. We sit at bars stools to engage with both staff and other customers...as we like to do. Anyway, I had a beer, she had a cocktail and I was a little bit in need of a bite so I ordered the nachos. Those really hit the spot. Totally dig this place and it's on my list when in town. This location also is located in a fun walk and shop area...plenty to do and see. read more

Inside seating plus a decent sized rooftop dining area and bar (elevator accessible). If you decide to enjoy the rooftop you place your order at the bar. Even though not insanely busy, the bar ordering was a bit messy. As patrons just wander up randomly it was hard to discern a line, plus apparently not every employee behind the bar was taking orders. Still yet, our food was prepped fairly fast and portion sizes were good. We ordered the buffalo chicken wrap, grilled chicken avocado sandwich and tri-tip sandwich...all of which were good (husband said his tri-tip stood out). Definitely a decent spot to hang out in nice weather and enjoy some good bar-food & drinks. read more

What a lovely gathering spot for Hillsborians. Hillsborites. Hillsboreenos. The patio upstairs is perfect for people watching. Came in on a random day and it was plenty full. They offer a selection of brews and pub food - burgers burgers burgers. The mushroom burger in particular was so good! The tots are on par with McMen's but here they offer a variety of doing sauces. I especially like the habanero ketchup, so spicy! I also appreciated their friendliness - our server found out we were there celebrating a birthday and they surprised us with a brownie sundae and a candle on top!! read more

Are you glad that dry/damp January is over? Well, Backwoods Brewery might be your perfect solution to a wet February. They have great beer on tap... from classic Portland IPA to a Golden S'mores Stout. I had the Brew Lab IPA and it was spot on. They have happy hour from Sun-Thurs between 2:30 to 5:30. Hard to argue with discounted beer and drinks! The decor is fun and has an outdoorsy vibe... canoes on the ceiling anyone? Plenty of swag for sale if you want to represent this legit local brewery! Otherwise, check it out when you can. You won't be sorry! I definitely want to check out the rooftop patio next time I visit. read more

Came here once, around the time they first opened up earlier this year, and second was just recently. I gotta say that I really dig this brewery! Their menu items are quite appealing, while the plates are fairly simple. Upon arrival you'll immediately see the bar, as well as consume that classic woodsy feeling like you're at a mountain brewery. Well, sorta lol. Love that feeling, miss that feeling too. I hate to mention their competitors, but the look is quite similar to good ol' Deschutes and Great Notion I'd say. A typical Portland style brewery. Twice I've been here, and twice we had nothing but excellent service. The guy with glasses knew his beers, and made good recommendations that we bought a few cans to take home. While recently, the lady with glasses was cordial and still attentive for serving us on a late night Monday night. My only wish was that I should've remembered their names lol. I think they know who they are. Down to earth folks. For appetizers, we loved the onion rings ($12), nice and crispy! Loved their soft giant pretzel ($14) and their pig lager beer cheese dipping sauce. I gotta give their fried pickles a try and maybe some wings next time. The Turkey Burnt Ends Sandwich ($17) was similar to a pulled pork sandwich, but with turkey. I enjoyed it a lot! And you can't go wrong with ordering crispy seasoned tots. As for alcoholic beverages, they do server wine and other cocktails, but they seem to be known more for ales and lagers. If you ask me, I go with the usual, The Ridge Run Stout mmm mmm! It's a meal in itself! With that said, I'm just glad Hillsboro has a new chill brewery to kick it at. Oh, and I can't forget to check out the vault and the rooftop patio (during the summertime). Cheers! read more

Had an impressive visit -- the vibe was on point! Chill ambience, super friendly staff, and the food did not disappoint. The chicken wings were solid -- definitely worth a try. We went for the loaded nachos with chicken, asked for a half-nachos, half-tots combo -- perfect snack to go with a bourbon on the rocks. Also tried the tri-tip burger -- absolutely a must-try. Overall, great spot to kick back and enjoy. read more

Let's start with the extraordinary staff. . . they are simply the best. On Feb 11, we went in for a celebratory birthday drink, a habanero margarita that was delicious, especially with an extra shot! Shared a sandwich that was pretty good and took home a birthday brownie and ice cream. read more

Walking into this place it was a bit loud. They do offer rooftop seating but this day it was particularly warm outside. Food was delicious and tasty refreshing drinks.(we had two rounds) The burgers are huge, the pretzel was great, cheese sauce a little gritty but it had good flavor, onion rings were yummy. The summer beer hubby had was very enjoyable. Overall great experience! Will be back. read more

Really cool location as the restaurant was an old bank converted into bar. We were able to get group reservations for the Vault room which was really a bank vault long ago. Service and beer were great. I would recommend if taking your team or have a group of friends and wanting a chill dinner and drinks. read more

Greeted when in walked in and seated immediately on a Sunday afternoon. An order of sweet potato fries were perfectly fried, served hot and cost $8.25 with a variety of sauce options. Limited cider on tap options; the Peach Cider was crisp, sweet and refreshing. Our server was informative, attentive and personable. It was pretty quiet, I'd say crowded, and had two televisions. read more

Enjoy people watching the Market from afar while sunshine sipping on their rooftop. Half the patio is shaded or umbrellas for the UV sensitive. Pups welcomed on top too! Standard pub menu ~ tots, burgers, wraps, melts, etc. Pass on the fried pickles and chicken tenders. There was a lone young gal that was bussin' the entire patio and being pulled by customers left and right. Impressed with her hard work hustle and politeness. The beertenders behind the counter were cordial and relaxed. BW is a laid back beer stop to quench your thirst with their tasty Mexican Lager 5.8% abv. Great for Hillsboro downtown. read more

The good and the not so good. The good - the beer! My husband had one of their many, many, many IPAs. He thought it was great. I had the Pilsner. Also great. Husband had the prime rib sandwich, I think. He enjoyed it! I ordered the Mac and cheese topped with turkey "burnt ends". It sounded good. ‍. It wasn't. The Mac and cheese tasted like possibly a velveeta sauce of some kind. No nuance, no other cheese flavor at all. Uninspired. The turkey burnt ends...how do I explain this...it was like the pouches of fake "jerky chew" we used to buy as kids. That's the only way I can describe it. It was dry, dusty, jerky like. I really wanted to love this dish, and honestly needed a bowl of comfort; this was not it. ‍ This place is really a pretty space, good beer, and has all kinds of potential, but the food has been underwhelming each time for me. read more

During my visit to Portland we rested our feet in Backwoods Brewing Company for a couple of pints and a snack. A Party Acres Hazy IPA and a Rip City Remix IPA and great customer service provided by Ally J., with a great personality, great looks, and attention to detail. The IPAs were brewed and served to perfection. Hazy, Hoppy, cold, and delicious! Ordered the Garlic Parmesan Tots, and had no idea we would get a MOUNTAIN of tots smothered in cheese sauce! Got them extra crispy and they arrived to our liking. The atmosphere of the brewery was sporty, casual, and comfortable. Highly recommended for a beer, a meal, and conversation with the patrons or staff. read more

We had a very good second visit at Backwoods last night. The experience started off being a one star evening as we couldn't find a server to greet us or to take a beer order. When this finally occurred, after 10 minutes, the rest of the meal was excellent. My wife had the Veggie Burger, our daughter had the Avocado Chicken Sandwich. I had the Chicken Cordon Blue Sandwich and it was tremendous as were the accompanying onion rings. I do think $16.75 PLUS $4.00 for the rings is a bit steep. $20.75 combined?? Our daughter's sandwich also had onion rings...$20.00 total. The beers were great. My wife had the IPA and we had the Pilsner. Again, not inexpensive...$7,75 each. It was good, but we will consider the cost on our next venture. With tip...$97.91. read more

first time here, and really enjoyed it. the prices are on the higher side but you get good quality food. it is in an old bank, so you can actually have group dinners in the "Vault". the weird part are the bathrooms, they are individual doors, then you walk out in full view of diners, and wash your hands in public sinks out in the main room. read more

Visited on January 19 and was very disappointed. Menu had changed to conform with other locations. Favorite menu items were dropped. This bar no longer serves even tater tots! Asked to speak to manager, Matt, and learned he is no longer associated with this location. Menus were old soiled and unattractive. In the past have visited here probably twice a week. It is likely we will never return. Marlon, the cook is superb, the wait staff is very attentive and professional, but the menu is sorely lacking. This was a terrible corporate decision. read more

We just came here for some nachos, beer & to get our 2 toddlers some mac n cheese. The food & beer was great. But the service is what really stood out to us. The servers were on top of it even though I'm sure we weren't the easiest tale. We'll definitely be back. read more

A beer and ribs on a sunny day on the balcony overlooking downtown Hillsboro, can't really get much better than this in town. Weekend farmers market and food trucks nearby plus people watching - what a great way to spend a great afternoon. The drink selections are great and service is quick and friendly. The ribs were a bit dry but the ambiance can't be beat read more

Definitely a cool place and would love to come back on a warm / sunny day. Love the rooftop bar theme with the restaurant down below. I ordered the Ruben sandwich which had a unique twist on it (glad I ordered it). My girlfriend ordered a bowl of their soup and a salad. The soup was a little bland for our taste but everything else was delicious. Service was spot on and very friendly. read more

I'm tempted to give 5 stars to Backwoods, but I'll land on 4. A five for me really has to standout on multiple fronts. That said, backwoods is in my top 2 joints in downtown Hillsboro. I've visited this place at least 5 or 6 times since they opened and have never been disappointed with either the service or the meal. Their burgers are great, their fries and tots are amazing, their pulled pork tot nachos are fantastic, their smoked salmon nachos are lovely, and I'm sure everything else is top notch. I will say I wasn't a huge fan of their wraps. Their wraps seem to have too much lettuce to other filling ratio. Just not for me. But if you want a meal that's serving basically higher quality pub food, do visit backwoods! read more

Delicious food! Beautiful lighting and ambiance. Tiny water glasses, lol.. but that's okay. Will definitely be coming back! Can't wait to checkout the patio on top when the weather improves! Super cool that you can walk into the vault. Would be such a cool place for an event meal! Five stars! read more

We came for lunch on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy, there was open seating at the bar with lots of spots available. It took a little longer than expected to have menus delivered to us, a couple employees walked by us behind the bar but seemed to be waiting for the bartender to take care of us. The drinks were excellent, I had the habanero passion fruit margarita and raspberry lemon drop. Both were flavorful and fresh. For food we ordered the pulled pork nachos and turkey club. The nachos were good with lots of ingredients but a little greasy. It's nice that they offer tots and sweet potato fries options without charging extra, which is very rare. The turkey club was just ok, the bread to meat ratio was off since the Texas toast was really thick but not a bad sandwich. We would come back for the drinks and to try other menu items. read more

Came here for lunch on a sunny Saturday & sat on the rooftop. There was plenty of seating without a wait. The rooftop was relaxing with a nice view. We ordered a pretzel, turkey/bacon/avo sandwich, twisted caesar salad & a couple of beverages. All of the food was delicious with dips and sauces that complimented the dishes well. The server and bartender were friendly. The location is great as it is nearby plenty of fun shops. read more

Stopped in for dinner tonight to "celebrate" my birthday with family (sadly, no birthday treats offered here). With eight people, we were able to secure the table by the front window. Drink orders were made and filled quickly, and the same was true with the dinner orders. Lots of pretzel to go around and tots a plenty. I had the BBQ Pork sandwich, which was very tasty. Two times here since opening, and I am liking it. read more

Same food as the Portland Pearl location which is great. We love the buffalo chicken wrap with the sweet potato fries. It's so big I take half home.

Only bummer was that they were out of one of our favorite beers, the S'mores. read more

Anyone with food, allergies beware. I ordered my food with no onions. The food took a long time. When it finally arrived, after a few bites, I realized they had put onions on my food. Our waiter, Mark, candidly admitted the cook had put onions on my food. He said, "I told them not to put onions on your food. Do you want me to take it back?" After waiting all that time for my food, I decided to scrape the onions off. They give me indigestion and are irritating to my stomach. When I was paying for the check, I asked Mark if he had spoken to the chef about the onions. He said no. Before I leave, a bad review, I always try to talk to the manager to sort things out. I spoke with Matt Mawhinney . He said, "I wish you would've told me before now" I explained to him that I think talking to him as I was leaving was appropriate. He responded " Well, you've already eaten your burger" I informed him that I had taken pictures of the onions. I informed him that his waiter freely admitted there were onions on the burger. I told him that I told the waiter, and if he needed to know about substandard food experience, he should train his staff to let him know. He then said, and I can't believe this, "Some of these weight staff have never waited on tables before. We just opened. " I told him that I wanted the name of the general manager. He told me he was the general manager. My husband said "well that explains some things." We walked read more

Nice looking spot. Several TVs around. 6-7 sears at the bar top. Full bar besides all the Backwoods brews. Warning.....NO pizza oven! If you're looking for pizza (like up in Carson)...it's not here. The upstairs deck has several covered, heated tables....and a few on the true outside (think, summer!). Great spirit from the people working today. I should have taken pics of the menu....someone please post those next. read more

I stopped by here on a Friday before going to a show at Bag and Baggage down the street. This location doesn't take reservations like other ones. Now problem, we went up to the deck upstairs. Unfortunately, only one of the heaters was working, so a bit chilly for this time of year. Order from the bar. I think the drink list is limited upstairs, but able to get what we wanted. It took about an hour for our food to come. Front of house seemed to be staffed ok, so I'm guessing the kitchen was understaffed that night. Maybe newness of the place is affecting things, or someone called in sick? I had a burger and tots. Burger was pretty good, but the tots were a bit hard and cool. I also think they were supposed to be seasoned, but weren't. I think that once they get the kinks worked out, this is going to be a pretty awesome place. The rooftop bar and Tuesday market in the summer will be a winner (assuming you can get up there as I'm guessing it will be that popular). Looking forward to coming here again in a while. read more
