We stopped in for dinner on our way back to Seattle. Chris told us about his bison smash burger special, so we had to try it. It was perfect! The blue cheese sauce is amazing! Well done Chef Chris! read more

I was on a trip & saw this on yelp. I like to support the locals & this was downtown & seemed about as local as it gets. I typically sit at the counter as I like to see whats going on. I had the corned beef hash & eggs which was pretty quickly delivered. The food was solid, nothing special, the corned beef hash looked & tasted like it came from a can, but it did the trick. All the folks behind the counter were happy & polite, which is always nice. My only complaint is they are cash only & you dont find out until its time to pay. Its not on the website or the menu. Theres a tiny little sign tucked away thats easily missed on the wall. Theres an ATM in the casino so you can get money. read more

We enjoy the sausage cheese omelet these days. They have a great weekend crew for breakfast these days too. read more

We went to breakfast and it took almost 90 minutes for our food to start being prepared. We canceled the order and left. Can't really recommend this place. read more

If you're looking for a chicken fried steak, this is your holy land. The waitstaff is beyond nice and the cooks nail it every time. If you're a prissy ass and you can't wait a few minutes for your food, it's not for you. That being said, the wait time has never been longer than fifteen mins. Can't wait to go back. read more

Potato tots and fried chicken breast were PERFECTLY cooked--not greasy, and deliciously crunchy. Salad was simple but tasty and the Blue Cheese dressing was loaded with savory blue cheese chunks. Both the waitress and the cook were so friendly and welcoming. I felt right at home in the classic Western saloon decor. Just a wonderful stop on my road trip to Wallowa Lake!! I highly recommend! read more

Every time I'm in La Grande I stop in to LB. Takes you back to the Wild Wild West at a great location in down town. Food is good and it feels like you're part of the family. Next door is another bar and bowling alley across the street. read more

Restaurant has reduced it's menu drastically. I didn't see anything that looked like food to me and skipped it.

We stopped into Long Branch on a road trip. Stepping inside is cozy, clean and the staff is welcoming. The counter stools are just what this diner is all about! We ordered the Long Branch scramble. It was delicious! The chef knows how to manage the grill. We watched him artfully craft eggs, burritos, various omelettes and everything looked tasty! Portions are generous as is the service A picture of our half eaten breakfast is included. We were so hungry we forgot to take a photo from the start. Don't pass up this gem!!! read more

We visit The Long Branch as often as we can ~ we love the service & menu choices & food & drinks & atmosphere

Good food, lackadaisical service. Sit in the front if you want a regular breakfast. Sit in the back at your own risk......the floor show will begin with pop and country music blasting and an American idol drop out named Jeremy singing along at the top of his drunken lungs. We were the only table in the bar for breakfast around 10am and we had to ask for more coffee twice....it's a small brick room and sound travels fast so conversations are not private back there. Front service is excellent and the cook is darling! read more

Amazing service the bartender was great she took my order fast and drink was made perfect!!

The place was clean, the food was good and so was the service. We will be back on our next trip to LaGrande.

Excellent! Smiling reception, courteous service and friendly patrons. Oh and the food was delicious!!!!!

Solid breakfast option. Old school griddle breakfasts with a counter to sit at make it feel like restaurants of the past. Food is delicious and service was friendly. It is cash only though. When we went the atm was down. read more

Local place full of locals. Good service and solid food. Prime rib french dip and fries were done well and for a decent price. Will repeat if ever back in La Grande. read more

Best breakfast in town. Also best Bloody Mary. Love the service we receive every time we visit. Usually once a month.

IMHO they make the best omelets in town. Service was good, ambiance? not so much. Still worth checking out. I was really surprised.

Great food with mediocre service in a filthy environment. The "Branch Burger", 1/3 lb of beef with canadian bacon has well-prepared (not well-done) beef that isn't dried out, the hash browns are perfectly prepared (browned and crispy on the outside, soft, almost like mashed potatoes on the inside). However, the staff screwed up our order and generally seemed like they didn't care, and the place was weirdly dirty. The menus are gross -- sticky, like they haven't been cleaned in years. And the seats are just as gross! I didn't notice until after I sat down, but the seats are as greasy as the food. P.S. The bathroom is in an over-21 area. That's fine for us, but don't expect to use this place as a rest stop if you have kids! P.P.S. This place is cash only. Bring cash to avoid getting gouged by ATM fees. The Yelp survey is asking me if this place accepts Android Pay. LOOOOOOL no. Maybe in 2030. This place is old school. read more

Very good breakfast is a little bit iffy about going in but definitely worth it hashbrowns and bacon were amazing glad we stopped in

The experience at the Long Branch diner was a 5 star experience. My husband and I had a blast there. The food was really good and priced at fair rates. But at the same time you get what you pay for, service is slow, very much a ma' pop shop, and the cleanliness of the employees is at times below FDA standards. It is a cash only business, which we found great!! We are broke college students and $20 bucks is all we have left. Over all we give a 3 star review because of some small but very important infractions. P.S. The lottery machine by the doors to the bar are free, and let you win, often. P.P.S. Not kid friendly, must be 21 to pee. read more

Awesome place. Small restaurant, but the menu is great. Food is fantastic, staff was really nice and friendly. We stopped by from a trip we made and I couldn't be more happy with it. Wish I could give more starts to it. Cooker made incredible food. Next time I'm back in Oregon I will be coming back here for sure. read more

Great food and the waiter was cool and suuuper friendly. The host/dishwasher needs a lesson in customer service. He was very short and no pleases or thank you's. Prices and portions are AMAZING! Place was clean and organized. Only down fall is kids hafta use the bathroom across the street because the only restrooms are through the bar. read more

Like walking back in time when you could watch the masterful short-order cook look like producing breakfast for 12 an easy task and where the wait staff treat you like her neighbor. Old-time, western atmosphere, complete with ceiling fan and bar stools. Fun road trip breakfast stop. read more

Good food. Clean place. Nice atmosphere. Good people and customer service. Really only downfall is it's a cash only place, but they do have an ATM on site to make that easier. Our family will eat there again. read more

I stopped in here two different times while over in Eastern Oregon visiting friends. The place is small and everyone seems to know each other. The drinks are really strong and the prices are reasonable. read more

This guy I know told me I could find Marshal Dillon in here. I didn't. Didn't see Miss Kitty either. Some guys lie. I was never too fond of Marshals anyway. The food here is way better than average. Service was prompt and the clientele are my kind of folks. read more

Love this littke place for simple diner breakfasts. Staff is friendly, food is good with big servings and reasonable prices. Recent breakfast special was two eggs, link sausage with hashbrowns and toast or pancakes for $7. read more

Ate lunch here based on the positive reviews but really can't recommend it based on my experience. Maybe I was there at the wrong time and on the wrong day of the week (Tuesday lunch), but the dish I ordered was not good at all. Add to that I noticed after placing my order that they are cash only (had $6 on me), so I had to spend $2 extra to get cash from the atm in the bar and they don't have a restroom accessible to those under age 21(!). It was not a relaxing dining experience for me and my family. read more

Headed over because nothing else was open at 9 pm on a Thursday. Place was empty but the bar in back seemed to have a small crowd. Server/cook up front was great and friendly. We ended up ordering breakfast food, which made my kids happy. Food was fair, nothing great but hearty. Cash only was unexpected, I missed that when I first looked it up. read more

Good solid breakfast. Pancakes are a standout - special recipe and they were great. Friendly service.

Looks like this place hasn't changed much over the years. 30 years ago, after a week in the Wallowas wilderness, my friend and I used to look forward to breakfast at The Long Branch on our way back to Portland. It was fantastic then, sounds like it still is. How I miss this place. Might just be enough reason to head back to La Grande someday here real soon. Real local eggs, bacon, and other good stuff. Honest biscuits and gravy like no others. Mmmmmmm! Nice to know some things are still the same. read more

It was 45 minutes from when we entered until we received our food. The pancakes were burned... Otherwise the fare was average diner food. We ran across this because a place with higher Yelp rating was closed for a private party... We will keep looking next time. read more

3 stars because place is not updated, filthy dirty...but 200 stars for breakfast food! If you leave hungry it's because you didn't eat. Bathroom should not be in the bar.. Taking cards is a must! (cash only). Overall...get it to go..it's delicious. Oh...oregon lottery machines pay well here too. read more
