I am sorry to say I had a disappointing experience here. The space is really cute from outside, I…read morewas really excited to pop in after my hike at Silver Falls State Park. The space was huge - way bigger than expected. I was bummed there was only one IPA and the keg blew on my order. She replaced it with a hazy IPA which I didn't love, but ordered anyway because I felt awkward standing up there. The way the bar is arranged isn't great - the bartender was positioned to stand right in front of the beer list, so I had to move around to see. I felt uncomfortable.

When I heard Stayton was getting its very own brewery, I was happy to hear their downtown was…read moregetting a lift. But when I heard Matt Spenner was going to be the brew master, excitement crept in. Because if anyone should be able to make good beer, it would be a Spenner. (This is generations of research manifesting itself here, folks). I was not disappointed. To start with, they have some funky names: Citra Lee Ale (named after Matt's wife Crystal, who's a brew mistress (is that even a term?) with Matt), Eukanot Do That on Television IPA (pretty awesome name considering the stuff on TV nowadays), and my favorite to drink, the Schmokin Porter. Their selection is limited, but they have guest beers (and wines), and they'll be coming up with new stuff so stay tuned. The place is open and airy and comfortable. No TVs or one arm bandits here, so you're gonna have to socialize, which is a good thing in my book. Add a dose of country music in the background, and voila, you're soaking in a cool vibe and sucking down some yummy suds. If you want grub, there's a food truck around when you need it. Plus, with the bay doors open, it's like you're chillin' in your bud's new backyard brewery, which is uber cool.

I joined some friends for a night of music by Rich McCloud. It's a spacious and bright…read moreestablishment that offers a variety of regional ciders and beers. Food varies upon the featured food trucks. While there, friends enjoyed sharing a supreme pizza. Amidst the multiple drink options, there were only two canned non-alcoholic brews to choose from. Unfortunate as the climate of sobriety continues to gain popularity. The featured musician was outstanding, but I think the lack of acoustic sound proofing, mood lighting, and loud talkers distracted from his performance. There should be some sort of separation of those there to enjoy the music and others there to visit out of respect for the performer. Additionally, the poster misspelled his name and had no address (I ended up at another location). Small but notable gaffes.

The owners, Kyla and Mac, have left no stone unturned when it came to detail. The tap lines are clean and insulated, the layout is cool (with an upstairs for console games), and the overall game selection is very good, especially for vintage games. There's even a room devoted to pinball and an outside area, both covered and open. The Big Buck Hunter shooting game is one of my addictions. I have the high score at Game On for Elk Adventure (as of this writing). Mac has the guns calibrated regularly for accuracy. And in a shooting game, that is paramount to a fun time and a reason for my success. It's also rare for a bar to take the time to do maintain properly-calibrated equipment for this particular game. Game On has beer and cider on tap, wine, and a nice selection of liquor and some great cocktails. In fact, the Huckleberry Margarita (Kyla's personal recipe) is stellar (although I must confess that me and tequila don't play well together, so I substitute vodka). I'll be returning there soon to see if I can get a new high score on Big Buck Hunter; there is an impending upgrade, which includes Caribou that I have to try. Plus, those Huckleberry Margarita's are calling my name.

The staff are hard working and friendly, & they do trivia night on Thursday and usually have a band every couple weeks on Saturday nights. The roll up door is definitely a cool touch. Breakfast is available on Fri-Sun and it's the best spot in town IMO. Their avocado toast is really go. They can be pretty busy at times but I've never had an unreasonable wait time... the back of house is as skilled and hardworking as the FOH. They do have a large space to accommodate bigger groups and are kid friendly on the side opposite the bar. There is a variety of seating types- tall tables, short tables and front row seats at the bar to choose from. I would definitely recommend making a trip to downtown Stayton to give this business a try.

It's unfortunate for the staff that works hard and seems to enjoy their jobs that there is a female bartender and server that are continuously rude and terrible at their jobs.

At least not until we know particular staff are no longer there. What could be an oasis in a food desert was nothing more than a mirage. Sad for Stayton.

The food was good, we received great service, and the dining area and bar and restroom were super clean. This ain't no dive bar!

Our Server, Ginger (Go Beavers!), whipped all this out while keeping up with the other customer's orders ... wow, She was flying! Three-Star Food and Five Star Service.
