Happy Hour 2p-6p Wednesday to Sunday
Bill L.

Second time here on road trips between SF Bay Area and Oregon. Tesla superchargers a short walk away. Great good, quick and friendly service, tons of beer options. Happy Hour Wednesday to Sunday 2pm-6pm ($4 pints during HH) I had the toasted coconut chocolate porter, shared the dough bites off the HH menu along with the ahi entree and tiramisu cheesecake with my lady. All were very tasty. Nothing leftover! Plenty of large tables for groups and a family friendly vibe Will definitely stop by again in the further if timing of my next road trip works out to do so.

We dined here 4/23/26. We had an awful experience and I was going to forget about it until I looked back at my credit card statement and saw that our terrible waitress gave herself a 20% tip after we left. As you can see by our receipt we had Camille as our waitress. She was one of the rudest waitresses I've ever met in my life. Any question we asked her she acted like we were the biggest inconvenience to her. While I was in the bathroom with my children she gave my husband the check. She followed us from the bathroom to our table and demanded payment. I said "I haven't looked at the receipt yet" (who doesn't check their receipt before giving payment?) she was pissed. She scoffed and said "really?!" Like I was stupid for even needing to look at the check and walked away. They give you the option to pay on an app so I started doing that to avoid further interaction with her. She saw what I was doing and came up to me and told me not to use the app because they get charged $1. Why give people the option if you don't want to use it? I proceeded to use the app and that made her more mad. I'm so very glad I took a picture of the printed receipt as well as the amount I paid on the app. I chalked it up to her just having a bad day and was going to leave it at that. Now seeing that she gave herself a 20% tip I'm infuriated.

Ahi tuna salad
Denise A.

My hubby and I were in town for a wedding and stumbled upon this restaurant on our way to the airport. Location is off the beaten path but very cute once you find it. Host staff was very hospitable which is always a plus upon arrival. HH was happening when we arrived so we chose the herb dough bites off that menu, along with 2 house chardonnays. Dough bites were underwhelming to say the least. Some were hard and some were soft and chewy. They were served with a grainy Dijon mustard and some sort of an aioli sauce. Marinara sauce would have been more appropriate. On to the entrees. I chose the ahi tuna salad and my hubby went with a basic burger. His opinion ... just a burger. Fries were fresh and yummy. My ahi tuna salad came with passion fruit vinaigrette and unfortunately it was super tart and not good at all. Make sure to have them give you a taste before you commit. I asked for a side of balsamic dressing but unfortunately the passion fruit one was already overwhelming it. I know not to order seafood in bar and grill but I thought I was safe with it incorporated in a salad. My advice ... stick with the basics ... beer and a burger !!!

Fish tacos
John G.

Needed to charge my car at the Tesla supercharger and low and behold this plus was right next door. Inside is spacious with lots of outside seating as well. We were greeted and seated quickly. The waitress was attentive and friendly. Tried a flight of five beers. All very good but my favorite was the When Doves Cry Hazy. Shared the fish tacos with my wife, we both liked them. Bought a couple 6 packs and a growler to take with us. Great place to stop even if you're not charging your car.

Truffle mac
Steve S.

Spring finally reared its gorgeous head, so it was time to grab a meal with outdoor seating. Caldera came to mind. Time to soak up the view of the hills and get a little sunshine. I'm not much of a beer snob--to me IPAs taste like the smelly rope you were forced to climb in 3rd grade gym class. Can't comment too much on the selection (lots of IPAs), but I can say the menu made for an intriguing read. They had beers concocted with chocolate, toasted coconut, rose petals, hibiscus, and even Hatch chilis from New Mexico. I picked a nice stout to keep me company. I was impressed with the quality of our main course. We went with the truffle mac to share, and then the Baja fish sandwich (love the name). The noodles in the mac were done just right, firm and not falling apart, doing god's work, carrying the rich and creamy truffle cheese. The fish was cooked beautifully--crisp and seasoned on the outside, flaky and glistening on the inside. The ingredients were all fresh and refreshing. If you're looking for some quality pub food, come out and try it. Pro tip: if you love root beer, they make the best kind. Also available at local grocery stores. Low in sugar if you are watching your figure.

The Oregonian made with house seltzer, vodka, fresh blackberry purée- so refreshing w/o being too sweet

Dog Friendly Brewery with Extensive Beer options! Outside Ashland, OR, this Brewery is tucked away off the freeway and out of site. We wanted to tour Ashland's dt & grab a bite but we got shut out on finding a parking spot. Plan B was driving out to Caldera and we're glad we did. It was hot but we were seated quickly at a shady outdoor table and Josh, our server, immediately brought over a dog water bowl for our thirsty boy. Josh took our drink order to get us started and was on top of his game making sure all the outdoor tables were kept happy. Drinks - Amber Beer was tasty and my Oregonian Cocktail made with house seltzer, vodka and local puréed blackberries was out of this world & not too sweet. Food came out quickly and hubby had a solid burger served with delightfully crispy fries and a chipotle ranch dip. I ordered a salad with added grilled chicken. The greens were crisp and I could tell that they made the salad to order because the apple and berries with blue cheese combo were so fresh and well dressed with a balsamic vinaigrette. Caldera Brewery is a 5/5 for being pet friendly, having both indoor and outdoor seating, friendly and efficient servers, extensive beer and drink menu and great food made fresh. Highly recommend!

Excellent service. Good happy hour specials. Nice ambiance and decorations. The three taco special is delicious!

Mini Fish Tacos
Alex W.

Popped into Caldera on our drive through town. Great happy hour with $4 pints and $10 fish tacos. They have a huge selection of beer, but I ordered a Juicy IPA, and while I did not ask to double check this honestly tasted like an Amber and nothing like a Juicy IPA so I wonder if the kegs may have been switched. The burger was standard. Fish tacos were small but tasty.

Beer keg lamps

On a road trip and stopped by this place. The interior decoration is very interesting and full of characters with beer theme. The food is also yummy and good price with happy hour price between 2pm to 5pm. It's a nice stop for the road trip but just don't get drunk:). Will come again next time if I'm driving by.

Mandy D.

Had a pit stop nearby to charge the car and decided the grab a bite and drink here. The chicken nuggets and tater tots are quite standard. Got the oatmeal stout which was nice. The place was a good spot for charging the car while eating and sipping. It's a pretty big place and plenty of drink options. I like that they have hard seltzers as well.

Brownie and ice cream dessert

Food was so good! Service was great. We were staying at the Best Western near by after a 15 hour drive from So Cal. Needed good food after road trip food and this was the perfect place.

Ahi salad
Bernie S.

Spacious interior seating area, with air conditioning and large ceiling fans for good ventilation on a hot summer day in Southern Oregon. Host and servers were friendly and welcoming, with just the right amount of attention. Beers were good, really nice selection. Food was okay- the ahi was dry and the salad dressing was on the sweet side, could've used some acidity.

Tap House Burger

All the food I have had here has been great! All the staff is kind and helpful! The hibiscus rose tea is delicious alone, but it's also great sweetened a bit. Outdoor seating is available with a great view, and inside is nice as well.

Speaking, the brisket in the Banh Mi was unfortunately tough and lacked the tenderness you'd expect from a properly smoked or braised cut. It had the distinct texture of a pre-packaged Sysco-style product, or perhaps it was a cold portion reheated on a flat top without being properly rehydrated, leaving it dry and chewy. I understand that protein carries a high food cost, especially in the current market. However, a more effective approach might be to balance the menu engineering by leaning on lower food cost items, like seasonal sides or creative vegetarian options, to offset the expense of sourcing and correctly preparing higher-end brisket. This would allow for a better product that justifies its price point, covers its own cost, and ultimately helps the company's bottom line while maintaining the quality standards this town deserves. I'd love to see a return to the quality I experienced a few years ago. All and all, despite the brisket. The service was kind and friendly.

Chef Nat Borsi's modern Mediterranean haven is a testament to substance over style, a place where "farm-to-table" isn't a marketing slogan but a palpable ethos. The menu, which deftly avoids the trap of being overextended, delivers singular triumphs. The Mushroom Bolognese is a masterclass in vegetarian depth, a richly savory ragout that satisfies on a primal level. The house-made pastas shine; the Lamb Bucatini offers meaty, soulful complexity, while the Seafood Pasta is a testament to the pristine ingredients of the Pacific Northwest. For the carnivore, the Roasted Chicken is a beautifully simple, perfectly executed dish that speaks to the kitchen's bedrock technique.

Our table was in their patio space, which I actually like better than the indoor part of the restaurant. The patio space feels very open and has a lot of live plants in the planters that make space between tables. It was a little warm on the patio since it was 98 degrees outside, but they keep it relatively cool on this mostly enclosed patio. Our server was great. She was so friendly and fun to talk to. She helped us figure out what we wanted to order and checked in on us just the right amount. You can tell the food here is very fresh and homemade. We started with the Deviled Eggs, which are really special. I love how they serve them over a bed of crushed up potato chips as they give this dish some salty crunch. Next we had the Beet salad, which is marinated beets over a whipped cheese. The beets do have a strong vinegar flavor, but it's balanced out beautifully by the cheese. My wife ordered the Mushroom Bolognese, which was probably the best dish of the evening. This is an incredible, vegetarian dish that is so meaty without any meat. The finely diced mushroom sauce is so good along with the handmade noodles. Also, adding burrata to it gives it a perfect creaminess. I ordered the pork chop, which was also excellent and enormous. It did take me a lot longer to eat since it was a little hard to cut, the compote on top added a great sweetness, but I feel like it could've used more. Also, the polenta and grilled asparagus was awesome. Lastly, we got the Rice Pudding for dessert. It comes with a hazelnut crumble and a dolce de leche sauce. Normally, I feel like rice pudding has a kind of thin, milky consistency, but not this. It is think and has a wonderful texture. It is probably the best rice pudding I've ever had. The nuts give a satisfying crunch and the dolce de leche sauce is light and sweet. Disclaimer: we did order one dish we really didn't like. It was a special salad with endives and lentils. The server was happy to get us another dish.
