We loved this place. Our server was charming and professional, the food was delicious! And the prices were reasonable.

One word: bacon. It is as phenomenal as they say. They source it locally and it sounded like almost daily, and same is true for their beef. We ordered the Mariota burger and it was great. You can choose different seasonings for your tots or fries (like truffle oil or Parmesan and garlic) which was a nice touch. They make all their own sauces and dressings except for ketchup, which makes it that much more fun. Service was friendly and helpful. The only drawback I have for the place is that the menu is only a little bit overwhelming--there are so many options for burgers which is great, but it took us awhile to decide! Maybe that's a good problem to have though, and we definitely chose well. Great semi-casual place to grab a burger or some Mac and cheese (they said that was supposed to be good also), or just order two full plates of bacon (because it's that good). You actually can get a pound of bacon as an appetizer. That is my only regret after dining here...I should have ordered more bacon. Will be dreaming about their bacon tonight. You get my point by now. read more

I was in town on business and happily found Chow for a late lunch. The waitress was delightful and helped me decide which decadent burger to choose. Absolutely the most creative array of burgers I've ever seen and the most delicious burger I've ever eaten. Will definitely go back more while in town. This is a must experience place in Springfield!!! read more

This place was inexpediently delicious for me. We needed something to eat on our way back to Portland and this looked great. So many different options! The burger was so good! I truly believe you could order just about anything here and it would be so yummy. I do recommend the fried avos they were heavy, creamy, and totally shareable. The service was very nice and tons of space to social distance and wait inside for your to-go order. read more

This place was bizarre. Music on but a random "regular" customer playing the piano and singing over it. The chef doesn't "believe in ketchup" so forget getting that with your fries, tots or burgers. Every menu item is overdone with extra toppings, extra everything and sometimes you just need a simple fix. Not overly welcoming layout. Just a very odd experience. read more

AMAZING FUN FOOD!! This place was great and the food was sooo good! Such great service and wonderful environment!!

First time eating at Chow in Springfield. The food was so fresh, but oh so spicy. Highly recommend the Cesar Salad, it is large enough for 4 to share. read more

Weird that this place never comes up in my searches. It's wonderful. Had a bacon and cheese on crack burger and a chicken little. Shoestring fries and tots. Everything was just great. Warm, crispy, flavorful. Seriously, whatever they have going on with the chicken breading is perfection. Everyone was friendly. Place was cool, clean, and not too loud. Good respite from the smoky outside. read more

This is the hidden food gem of the area! Best/most creative dishes around, honestly. Must eat here! You must! The chef's are the owners and the staff is really easy to talk to and confident about what's on the menu. I will definitely be coming back. read more

This place is not much to look at, but if you can get past the bar atmosphere the food is pretty good. The chef does seem to have a heavy hand when it comes to using cumin, but again the food is well worth the trip. My go to is the yard bird, smothered and covered. Chicken in a tasty sauce, over argugala and crispy shoe string fries. They also have a monte cristo kind of sandwich that is messy but tasty. If you want to really let go, and can afford it, the wolverine will be right up your alley. More food than any one person could eat in one sitting. read more

Food was okay. I had a burger and it was good and my husband has the salmon fish and chips and which had no flavor. I will not return because this "gastropub" or otherwise known as a bar does NOT have ketchup or regular ranch! Are you kidding me!? Stop trying to be "cool" and not carry regular dipping sauces that every bar and restaurant should have. read more

Fun place and what a huge variety of hamburgers. Super friendly staff as well. read more

This was hard to rate and I will say to at least give it a try. You can tell they put a lot of heart and thought into their food but I really had a hard time getting over the price. I got the chicken club with tots. The club had bacon that was carmelized with coke a cola, ham, arugula and they didn't skimp on the chicken breast but the chicken was cold even though the bread was grilled so it was a bit confusing. The tots were seasoned with salt and pepper. I just didn't think it was worth $19 including tip for lunch read more

I remember I pickup the owner of this restaurant two or three times and he is always drunk. One time he made me insanely uncomfortable & I had to stop the ride midway through because he was telling me that I was going the wrong way and started to get violent with me so I had to end the ride as he made me feel extremely unsafe. I will never go here and I suggest no one should come here because of how shady and a drunk the owner is! STAY AWAY!! read more

Excellent food. I got the PB&J burger. It sounded odd but it was amazing. Good fires too. I would say go there and try their burgers although they have several other options that are probably awesome too. read more

Still a great place to eat. The Mac n cheese dishes are decadent. The do their own bacon in brown sugar. Today I had the "Ham and peas" max n cheese. It was awesome. I took a friend who had never been there before and she can't believe how good it is. The biggest decision is how to chose what to order. We told the server that we needed a sampler of a few bites of everything. Yum. read more

I'd first like to say... whatever that pimento cheese is, and wherever it came from.... NO thank you! :) That stuff has no business on a cheeseburger. But then again.... guys my size don't belong on road cycles either. I've only been here once (so far), but I plan to return at least twice more - given the foodstuffs I was curious about. This trip saw me take down the Mac & cheese bites, a burger with the aforementioned gross cheese on it, and some spinachy/veggie and rice dish. ALL were yummy and worth having again. The service here was spectacular, the interior was cozy and nice, the prices were fitting for the quality of food you get, and the flavor was begging of another visit. I saw at least two other items on the menu that I've got to try. I didn't know chow existed before this visit, nor how long they've been in business. But I was happy enough that I hope this business succeeds and opens more locations. It's clear they care about what they're doing here. read more

I've driven by this place so many times saying " I need to go there sometime ". I finally made it in! Love the casual pub atmosphere however if you want to have a conversation it is a little loud. My husband and I started with the mac & cheese balls. They were lightly beaded, cheesy goodness. We both felt that if we'd added a salad then that would have been a perfect meal. I ordered the PB&J burger. The flavorful burger wowed me! I never thought I'd like the combo of peanut butter, onion jam, bacon, and chips on a burger. I highly recommend it. My husband had the jambalaya that was not an ordinary jambalaya. This came with shrimp, crab, and their delicious bacon. There was more than enough left over to take home. The prices are mid range, our meal cost $50 and that was only food no drinks were ordered. I highly recommend Chow read more

Chow features their famous bacon (a 48-hour process) that graces most dishes. The burgers are fantastic as are the "loaded tater tots". Waitstaff are enthusiastic and proud of the food, giving thorough explanations of the bacon recipe, customer favorites and recommended options for much of their entrees. If you are visiting the Springfield/Eugene area, you must make Chow part of your dining plans. read more

We were there at opening on a Saturday. We had a couple of salads and the Mac and cheese. Both were wonderful!

My salad had poor quality lettuce and could hardly find the best ingredients as it was all jumbled together. same with the guy next to me with another salad. won't go back read more

Best chicken wings (black and blue) ever!!! I cannot say enough great things about the food and the friendly atmosphere. If the TV show "you gotta eat here" makes their way to Springfield Oregon, please please please feature this place! Oh wait, Ninkasi brewing company - you were amazing too!! 2017-12-16 I'M BACK!!!! All the way from canada to have these wings!!! read more

Great stuff. Salmon sandwich is off the hook! Off the regular path. Venture out to Springfield for some good beer and food.

Amazing customer service. everything on the menu sounded amazing, be ware of spice though! Such a cool space and worth checking out as many times as you can while in the area! read more

Big food... But still with big flavor! Usually places like this that serve big portions and over the top selections like this end up sacrificing flavor and execution for novelty. Definitely not the case here. Really surprised that even when you get this ridiculous burger or even more ridiculous grilled cheesearoni craziness and everything on the plate comes perfectly prepared. The crunchy bits are crunchy the cheese is gooey the burger is juicy and quality and everything comes together really well. It's fun food and creative and really delicious. So on point! What a pleasant surprise. The menu was also very well explained and that extra attention to detail is a really nice touch. We all had a gnarly burger craving and were prepared to get down! So we did our homework looking for the best burger in Eugene/Springfield. We narrowed it down to a few options and a friend insisted this was the best. They were correct! read more

Sabrinawitch was amazing!! No matter what you get you won't leave hungry!! Can't believe I didn't know about this place till now. I will absolutely be back!! read more

Me and my boyfriend came to this restaurant during a 115 degree heat wave to get away from the sun. Once inside we were welcomed into the eatery by attentive staff that was helpful with helping us pick our beers and entrees. Both the "Bert n Ernie" and the "Ruthy Melt" were some of the best sliders and melts we have ever had. In addition to the food the establishment was very clean and we could actually see the kitchen staff work on our meals which was a plus. The menu was quite extensive with a lot of different options but I can say the two we chose were excellent. Would definitely come again not during a heat wave and enjoy one of their on tap bears on the deck. read more

The Parmesan tater tots were great. I got the BAB tonight and I really wanted to like it but I think that it's just to sickening sweet for my tastebuds. I thought some mustard might help balance it out, but adding a little definitely wasn't a good idea. I ordered a bacon burger last time and i felt the same way. I think the sugar bacon is good, but for my tastebuds, it's just too sweet for my liking. Wishing i would have tried the monte cristo. I ordered via Grubhub and the Mac and cheese item that was ordered was missing. I was hoping to give that a try, but maybe next time. My son got the Mac n cheese burger with our last order and he said it was amazing. We both like our burgers medium rare and both burgers were cooked perfectly. read more

Super nice staff. All burgers are EXTRA, as in sloppy with toppings. All are delicious though. Sometimes I get the plain burger so I can relish in a burger done right. Be prepared to get your burger how you ordered. If you want it rare, they do a real rare. Love the wedge salad and truffle fries as well. read more

We were on vacation in Springfield and went looking for Moe's Tavern and instead found Chow in that location. Absolutely superb food and atmosphere, and the staff were all very friendly and candid. The salmon, Bert and Ernie burgers, shrimp carbonara, and taco burger were all exceptional. Our compliments to the chef, and we will be sure to return if we are in the area again. read more

Awesome food and drinks, great service. The service was delightful and timely. When we're looking for a good meal we like coming to Chow in Springfield. read more

Here's the thing...this place has the potential to be better. They need to simplify and perfect their menu. It is way too extensive. I have a had some good things, and some other things that taste just a little off/weird. Everything has a twist to it, which I can appreciate, if it's done right and improves the flavor. But their twists seem to make it kinda weird. read more

Booked a room in Springfield for a few days to escape the power outage in Salem. This place looked decent for dinner. An $18 burger damn well better be worth it. Well.... it is! I had the Fondue Stacker Burger and the wife had the PB&J. We both appreciated the variety of textures and flavors. That jalapeño fondue sauce was the bomb. Disappointed we couldn't eat inside as it looks like a cool place. read more

Best burgers I have had bar none in town! And maybe even in the whole of oregon to this point in my life. So unique how they candy the bacon and just have there own unique flavor profile. Me and my wife have eaten here every time when we get time for a dinner date. Literally the only thing we crave from around here!!! My mouths watering now thinking about it!!!! read more

The atmosphere is calm and cool, a great place to chat with a few friends over a beer and some DELICIOUS food. The bacon cheese burger on crack is exactly that. A perfect blend of cheesy meaty goodness The prawn ceasar salad was good, but the croutons being mini grilled cheese??!? AMAZING GENIUS. B.A.B. MAC and cheese is my second favorite of all time now. It's sweet savory blend was incredible The chicken littles were a classic hit. With sweet potato tots I'll probably order that every time And "The Dude" grilled cheese was a wild card. Very sweet, said it should have some spice and I didn't quite get that Very yummy overall! read more

A must to eat it if you are in the area. I will be going back. Be sure to bring your appetite as portions are huge read more

Phenomenal!!! Had the sweet potato tater tots ... amazing!!! Then had the portobello Mac and cheese (with bacon and the Dude grilled cheese ... both were UNBELIEVABLY good!!! What an amazing restaurant and bar! All time favorite! read more

I have been here twice now, while visiting a friend, and holy cow the food is amazing! Do yourself a favor and eat here. The bartender was great, attentive and helpful without being pushy. He was even willing to make a modified German chocolate cake shot for me without any guff. I have had two different burgers while here, the Big Mamma in a lettuce wrap and the B.a.B. in a lettuce wrap (due to being gluten intolerant). Both burgers were mouth watering and messy! Just the way I like my burgers. The loaded tots are definitely the way to go. Both times, the burgers were super filling and I had to take my tots to go, which was no problem. The bacon they serve is addicting. They have other times on their menu, like salads and fish and chips. But man o man, I could not eat here without having a tasty burger. read more

Hours state 9pm closing, drive 40 minutes to try this place because of a recommendation from a friend only to find locked doors. it was only 7:40. a man came outside to clean up tables and I asked if they were closed and he said yup! I asked but your hours say 9pm online and on the door and the reply I got was "we evaluate at 8:15 based on customers if we're gonna close early." it wasn't even 8:15. i never leave reviews, but the facts that he looked at his watch saw he was early for his own time frame and still said 8:15 despite it being 7:40 really erk'd me. just post that your closing hours vary online and let your customers call in to see if you are open. I would have been happy to call and ask. just seems lazy and misleading. read more
