We saw the building driving by while on vacation in the area and were under the impression it was a cafe/gift shop, but walking in we realized it was a sit down restaurant. The gentleman at the front was a bit rude when we explained why we weren't interested in sitting down as we thought it was a gift shop and we were going to browse across the street at the McKenzie General Store instead. We didn't try any of the food, but customer service wasn't the best making it awkward when it was an honest mistake... read more

McKenzie Station Pub - Bleu Pool Bacon Mushroom Burger. Best burger I've ever had! Cooked to perfection. - Pubs Near Me - McKenzie Bridge, Oregon

McKenzie Station Pub has some of the best food I've had in a while absolutely amazing flavors that made the visit worth it. I was seated right away, which was great, but the service was a bit underwhelming. It took about 20 minutes before anyone came over to take our order, and they weren't even that busy at the time. That being said, once the food arrived, it more than made up for the wait. If you're willing to overlook slower service, the food here is definitely worth trying. read more

Wonderful food A lot Priced high Drove Ann hr to get to their food Pleasant people work there read more

OMG! Hidden Gem! Rustic Quaint atmosphere. Good Vibe all the way around. Food delicious, I had a hamburger and it was probably the best I have ever had. My husband had the brisket sandwich and he loved it. Our friend had the brisket hamburger with potato salad, he said it was delicious as well. The service was excellent, and fast! We will definitely be back and spread the word of how good this place is! 5 in my opinion. read more

I enjoy the vibes but lots are left to be desired here with food and service. We had a reservation but it took fifty minutes just to get our entrees. Our waitress forgot to put in our cocktail order so we waited about 30 minutes for those. The margarita actually was quite good! For dinner I had the steak. Oof! Definitely not medium rare. Pretty good flavor but super tough and no steak knives which made it very hard to cut. The sides it came with - mushrooms/onions, asparagus, and garlic mashed potatoes were the best part. Not the best ever but pretty good. It's nice to have another option in McKenzie Bridge but this is not my favorite! read more

What a gem! We were staying in a cabin across the street,and thought we'd try the McKenzie Pub. Wow,so glad we did! Decor was cute and kitschy; so much to look at! Service was spot on and friendly. My husband ordered the Pan Seared Salmon. He declared that it was some of the best salmon he'd ever had,and he's picky! I ordered the Garlic Shrimp that was very tasty. We are already planning our next stay on the McKenzie, and we will definitely be dining here again! Just have to remember that they're closed on Mondays. Great meal! read more

If you are old enough, the only summary you need is the intro to U2's Desire... Yeah!... you understand, now go get the burger! For the rest of you... this is a very nice little spot to hang out when you are done hiking, kayaking, or otherwise playing in the woods. I have been a few times, and I have always found the food excellent, especially the smoked meat. I highly recommend the brisket burger shown... enough so I am now contemplating making the hour drive into the hills for another taste! Inside the pub is friendly, family-oriented, and a definite gathering place if a favored game is on. I prefer to sit outside in the mountain air and enjoy the trees while I eat, but to each his/her own. Nice people, a bit understaffed, and can be a little pricey, but well worth a visit. read more

The Pub is a great place to meet for a drink, watch the game or enjoy a meal with friends and family! Excellent food and atmosphere. I love the option of outdoor seating or even take your food to go. This bar and restaurant is well worth checking out for yourself! read more

Best brisket I've ever had anywhere and I've been to some of the "top" BBQ places in the country. Cool space, good service and all our dishes were really good. Not sure why they don't come up in searches under restaurants? read more

When you are up in this area your choices are limited but, I assure you, this is a SOLID choice. I have been here twice while visiting the hot springs about 5 miles away. Each time I have visited they have been busy and you can see the locals frequent here which is always a great sign. The decor is eclectic and the chairs and tables are a smash up of styles but it adds to the charm of the place. Service is always fast and friendly. I ordered the salmon which was cooked perfectly and had a delicious sauce served with it. The star of their menu though is the burgers. They are perhaps the best burger ever according to my friend who ordered one. I have to admit, I had a little order envy. The great news is that I will definitely be back and try one myself next time. They also have a coffee shop attached to the restaurant which was a nice bonus for a specialty coffee vs gas station coffee. read more

OMG this place is soooo good! Near Belknap hot spring on the 20. Sooo much good smoked meats. Thinly sliced tri tip French dip. So good we came back the next day to get it again! Rose the bartender is the sweetest person and Nick the chef is Expert level! No! He really is an expert with the meats he smokes. This must be the best place in the state for smoked goodness. A charming building amongst the tall pines next to the McKinsey River. Just a warm homey feel. This is a must stop between Eugene and Sisters (Bend) read more

This pub should be called a restaurant! The food is so delicious, I would never have thought such good food could be made in a pub! We spent four nights in McKenzie Bridge and ate there every day--sometimes for both lunch and dinner! The 20-hour brisket dinner, brisket salad, salmon salad, and their freshly ground hamburgers are all SOOO GOOD!!! Special thanks to Leah and Rose, who served us--they were so wonderful and friendly! read more

Stopped here unexpectedly from a trip up the mountain and suddenly feeling hungry. I do NOT regret stopping here. Outside seating and with fast service. We had the loaded fries: a mountain of fresh crisp fries loaded with brisket... OH My!! Delicious! All hot and cheesy and loaded with meat and Mayo and jalapeños and red sauce and just SCRUMPTIOUS. My belly is still happy just thinking about it read more

... An oasis near McKenzie Bridge Touring by motorcycle today and enjoying the fall foliage on twisty 242. We arrived around 5pm very hungry and maybe a bit hesitant to enter this expresso spot (it's in the name :) We were pleasantly greeted warmly by the energetic hostess & server "Kelly." Instantly we felt like the "regulars" who also started to arrive shortly after. Summary: We will return, either as a destination trip, perhaps an overnighter or passing through. Either way, we'll make a point of coming back. Our experience was that good. With cool temps, and about 1200 tight curves winding through the pass for 3.5 hours of riding, we knew exactly what we wanted A BURGER!!! If you're a carnivore... well, this is your spot! One of the BEST BURGERS you'll ever enjoy. The staff were all gracious, polite and accommodating helping tune in the Red Sox playoff game while greeting guests and serving the specials of the day ...Brisket smoked for hours, $3 margaritas and BBQ ribs. We selected a brisket burger with an extra slice of brisket on top...layered on a bed of homemade pickles. Also a blue cheese (Blue Pool Burger) with bacon. Both burgers cooked perfectly and with exceptional flavor. We wished we could have enjoyed a cocktail and stayed overnight. GO visit - it's worth it. Enjoy nearby Belknap Springs 5 miles away, hike or just change your environment for the day or weekend. It's worth the trip and we are eager to come back. read more

THE BURGER. Yes, friends - this is the home of the BEST BURGER IN THE ENTIRE WORLD. And I've had a lot of burgers - from Tokyo to Honolulu to Seattle to New York. The Bleu Pool Bacon Mushroom Burger is the most amazing experience you'll ever have. Buttery soft bun with a crispy outside and fluffy inside - I would get this from the bun ALONE...and I'm not a huge bread person. Thick-cut bacon. Mushrooms that are NOT the boring sauteed button mushrooms, but are golden, firm, I-have-no-idea-what-they've-done-to-them-but-these-are-amazing little chunks of heaven. A thick patty that is so juicy you will be dribbling down your front. I swear it is beef AND pork mixed together, fresh ground on-site. Melting chunky blue cheese crumbles gluing it all together. Quickly slide off the raw onion, the lettuce, and the tomato - this burger doesn't need it. There's probably LSD in this burger because it will make you dream of it for the next year. I can't forget it, and it's been a year since I last had it. (*just had to wipe off some dribbles down my front*) I have no need to review any other other food at this restaurant because THIS IS IT. I never need to eat again. I will die happy now. Just bury me with this burger. read more

I was in McKenzie Bridge for a work meeting and 15 of us had dinner at McKenzie Station after. We were all completely blown away by the fantastic service, steins of great beer and high-quality food!! Highly recommend visiting this locally-ran restaurant if you are in the area! read more

As others have said the food is very good and prices are reasonable As others have also said the service can leave a lot to be desired The server was efficient, but borderline surly The fairly loud music and loud people at the bar made conversation difficult The place could be cleaner as well You will probably get a good meal here but don't count on atmosphere or ambiance read more

This place was recommended to us by the front desk clerk at Belknap Hot Springs. She said all the staff goes and they love the food and atmosphere. My wife and I tried it the first night of our stay and liked it so much that we went back the next day with our family party of eight. It was good both nights. The Brisket Fries were so very good! The NY Steak was full of flavor and cooked to perfection and came topped with delicious Mushrooms and Caramelized Onions. My wife's Tri-Tip Dip was worth coming back for seconds. Staff was friendly and efficient. A nice surprise so far from civilization. read more

Get the brisket burger. I had friends rave about the burgers here, and told my dad that they said it was the "best burger ever". He said everyone always says burgers are the best burger ever, and it's just an ok burger. After a day exploring, we stopped and gave it a try. Split the brisket burger. And it was truly the best burger ever. I was sad we split it- because even though it was a huge burger, I would have eaten the whole thing! This is a must-stop now any time I'm out in the area! read more

We have been to this area frequently, but had not visited this establishment. Sorry it took us so long. The burgers are hugs, served as you want. The potato salad offered as a side is well worth the gamble. I love a good french fry, but this potato salad was the bomb. Service was spot on, attentive, but not hovering over you. We will return again! read more

Best brisket. Damn good salads and fries and burgers. Hard to get ahold of on the phone or online so stop by and see hours posted on the door. A mix of locals (forest people, old hippies, working class folks) and visitors makes for a diverse crowd. Getting (many) brisket sandwiches here is one of the reasons I visit the area- seriously. Check it out but don't take your entitled city attitude here. You'll get treatment as good as what you give. read more

Me favorite local hangout. You always surprise us with unique specials and delight us with old favorites. Your Food is outrageously delicious and your drinks are stunning! read more

Been a few times and finally decided to leave a review. The three stars are for the food- really good burgers and decent prices on food and beer. Atmosphere smells and looks like a dingy basement at grandmas house with extra mismatched furniture and fixtures that are stored there. It's dirty and has no theme at all. And with doilies and dirty tacky tables cloths as well as a musty carpet, it's not the best atmosphere. Service has been hit or miss, mostly misses with the owner who is short and doesn't know what friendly service means. Seriously, I think she intentionally tries not to smile and looks at you and talks to you you're wasting her time. With a lot of cleaning, clearing of excess clutter, and some TLC, as well as some serious improvement to friendly service, this place could be a great place to go to. For us, after 4 visits, the food as good as it is, isn't worth it, except to-go. read more

My wife and I stopped off one afternoon while we were traveling in the area and decided to give this place a try. When we walked in we were the only people in the joint, and when we walked in it a bit confusing, is it a bar? is it a restaurant? is it a store? As it turned out the answer was yes, it was all of these. The lady that was working said we could sit any where and eventually brought over our menus. I will say that the lady that helped us was not overly friendly by any sense, my wife asked her a question about the menu and the lady just seemed annoyed. Actually toward the end of the meal a younger guy started helping us and he was much more friendly. As for the food, my wife ordered a chicken salad wrap with potato salad, and I ordered a grilled club and clam chowder. I will say this about the place, the food was pretty tasty and the price wasn't bad. My wife chicken salad was a bit on the sweeter side but it was very good and the potato salad was great too. I really enjoyed my sammich too and the chowder was nice and creamy. So would I go back? Typically for 3 star places that is a probably not for me but I really did enjoy the food, and the chances of me being in this area again is pretty slim. Had our waitress been a little for friendly (Or had we had the young kid the whole time) I probably would have given it 4 stars and would consider a return trip. But we would probably try someplace new in the future. read more

We walked in at about 12:30 on a Sunday. The woman working there--maybe the hostess? maybe the owner who is completely clueless as to the meaning of customer service and word of mouth?--rather than greeting us, instead told us they were all out of coffee beans, so couldn't make us a coffee drink. We said no problem, we were there for lunch. She then snapped at us--as if we were being ridiculous to expect a restaurant would be serving lunch at 12:30--that they don't serve lunch until 1:00. I understand that restaurants are short staffed right now, and that people who ARE working might be overworked and overstressed, but this woman was openly hostile to us for absolutely no reason. The only reason I'm giving this place a second star is that her uncalled for rudeness forced us to turn on our heels, walk out the door, and drive down the road a ways to Vida Cafe, which was fantastic! read more

Our first time there we were a little put off by our server, she was a bit rude. The food however was quite good, enough for us to come back. Our second visit was much better. The same server seemed to be in a much better mood and was far more attentive and pleasant. The smoked brisket is what brought us back. It is very good. In my experience out west, smoked meats done properly seem to be elusive. making this a true gem. The portion of meat could be healthier but it is adequate. Next time I doubt I'll think twice about what I'll be having. read more

The food is fantastic. Have tried several things on the menu and have yet to be disappointed. That said, try the brisket burger. They always have a few local beers on tap that are good. read more
