Their potato salad is literally to die for. We have it catered for one of our big Farm Bureau events and we get GALLONS of it and there is NEVER leftovers. read more

Tatted bartender needs an ego and reality check. Kona was flat and as a bartender myself I would never give a guest a beer with no head at all, seeing there was something wrong with the keg or keg lines. Taquitos were obviously frozen but I expected that, and honestly weren't bad. The chef was great. When I asked how many came in an order for $11 she said 7-8 but we got 5. Again, not a big deal I'm not trippin over $11. But overall really bad service and shitty attitude If you're looking for a relaxing, welcoming time, as we usually look for in a bar, I wouldn't choose this place. Oh and bathroom shares a wall with kitchen. read more

Great place to watch the games, food is good, quick friendly service, place is dark inside, does have Oregon Lottery.. all in all a great place.. the only reason for 4 stars is the bathroom could use some work! read more

The burger was fine on my first visit here. I then brought my son in who was visiting from out of town. I ordered the Italian vegetable soup this time. I honestly have never had such terrible Soup. I have no idea what was in it but the flavor was disgusting, couldn't even finish it. read more

Best burger in Medford. Best potato salad I've ever had. Amazing and friendly service. It's got a little bit of a dive bar vibe, but in the best way possible! read more

Best Potato Salad on earth. I'm considering a respectful B&E to steal the recipe. Burgers are bomb too.

Mighty fine burgers and fries and libations. Sooo fine! Report by the Rogue Valley Bound Show OOH, Sooo Good! read more

One of the best burgers you can get in Medford for a cheap price too. Very good customer service.

People are super nice and food is decent. Not bad for a little hole in the wall that's been there forever.

Excellent atmosphere, excellent food and excellent service. I've been coming here for over 45 years and I absolutely love this place. The new owner Billy has been employed here for years and years and she knows what she is doing. read more

Best onion rings! Amazing homemade burgers. Big ass burger double size of regular. Great fresh food read more

Mr Smith's - Big ass burger double size of regular burger. Very good homemade food - New American Near Me - Medford, Oregon

Best burgers in Medford and highly recommended saying hello to Billy the owner she has the best personality and love her customers

Prices are a little high for what you get. Beers are cold and staff is friendly. Clean place, food is good but it is your typical pub grubb.

Great burgers! The potato salad is the best, next to mom's! It's our go to when we have a hankering for a burger!

The owner. He owes us a round @ Rougue Valley. ............................................................................1212122212122121212212221122112 read more

Great service from Aspen. Appreciate how much she helped us out and how friendly she was! Great atmosphere, feels very local and sports bar like. Very good bar food and we were pleased to show up during Trivia. Everyone was glad we were there and definitely somewhere to go back next time I'm driving through Medford. read more

The night manager is so unapproachable, my fish was still frozen/ cold . I tried to get her attention but she just cold shouldered me, so I asked if I could speak with her and she was not so pleasant. Not the first time either . She asked my friend if her fish was frozen/ cold in front of me, hers was warn not hot, then she said I was a complainer in front of me. Never stepping foot in that establishment again. Rated a Zero for the night manager, no customer service skills.... ZERO read more

Best burger! Yes, their special recipe potato salad is the best but with there is something about fries with a burger for me, part of that could be the fry sauce. Beer is cold, great burger - what more do you need? Never dissatisfied! read more

I've been spending time over the past few days really reading tons of reviews and the ones I enjoy the most tell me a story. So I'm going to tell folks about Mr. Smiths. My family has been coming to Mr. Smiths since 1973. When I was little, my brother who is 15 yrs older was a stock car driver. The Medford speedway used to be right in Medford up the street and the man who created Mr. Smiths is Dane Smith. Dane is a well known successful driver and obviously a good businessman since this business is still thriving. He and many of the drivers all went to Mr Smiths after every race. I would get to go with my brother to all his races. I was 11 at the time and back then it wasn't so scary to be at a venue on your own- and most of the regulars knew all the families - anyway- They used to make a Rueben sandwich that was just so delicious- I couldn't go in the bar, but I'd wait at home patiently for my brother to get home and bring me this amazing Rueben. The best part though was getting the potato salad. This potato salad for anyone who likes the sourness of dill pickles will love this recipe. My brothers wife even worked there and she was sworn to secrecy on how to make this salad. So, fast forward- I moved to Portland right after high school and was in PDX for 21 years. I moved before I turned 21 and still had never got to go in the bar. So over those years I used to beg my friends and family to go get me Mr smiths potato salad by the gallon and bring it to Portland. And they did! What I have learned over the years is that the potatoes aren't boiled- they are baked- and then the potato is grated- it's got green onions, eggs finely chopped, mayo- and there's got to be pickle juice in it to make it tart. Some have commented that it's on the saltier side, (which is the pickle juice I'm convinced), but it's just so good with a juicy burger and a pint of beer- it's like salty peanuts and beer, they just go together. So now that I live back in the valley, I get to go whenever I like and have my favorite potato salad. The bacon cheeseburger is my favorite with extra dill pickle slices- it's a good seasoned grill and the meat gets a nice char on it but still real juicy. I wish they still had the original Reuben of my childhood memory but they've got decent bar food. I would give them five stars just because of my years loving it- but there are times that all the regulars kinda monopolize the servers time and I go up to the bar and order myself. Once orders are in everything is always smooth from there- beverages refilled, checking in etc. the bar itself is a sports bar with tons of games on all around. There's still one pool table, there used to be more, but the video poker machines took over one part years ago. The people are always friendly- both employees and the folks that frequent the place daily. It's a great local bar with good bar food and also good pricing on beer. I brought home a quart of potato salad on my visit for lunch yesterday and my family scarfed it down- maybe I shouldn't have told them?! lol read more

Wow. If only I could rate them a negative star! I'll try not to let anger get the best of me in this review, but let me just say, when it comes to taking care of their customers, this place blows. Last night my friend and I spent close to 3 hours in the dingy atmosphere. The bartender was no where to be found most of the time-- she was either outside smoking or well, who knows-- and the bar was practically empty. Maybe a person or two at the bar, but this place is not the "place" to be. Oh, and the bathroom door locks are broken, so don't expect any sort of privacy if there does happen to be any form of life when/if you visit this place (although I advise against it). The waitress also snatched our beers away before we could finish them, making the beer intake low, and the tab high. Now, let me get to the BEST part-- after leaving, I didn't feel comfortable enough to drive, so I had a friend come pick me up. Yay for not drinking and driving! Today, I went to pick up my car, happy that I hadn't driven last night, to find it GONE. Yep, Mr. Smith's had my car TOWED, without even a courtesy call. REALLY? ...I mean, REALLY? ...REALLY? Alright, so, there's more to the story. They re-paved their parking lot. Yep, all new pavement surrounded by "caution" tape. Cool. YOU COULDN'T PUT UP A SIGN?! Or let people know?! Or why are you even paving your parking lot on a Sunday morning? Obviously there's a good chance that some people will be responsible and leave their cars overnight... after all, it is a BAR. Anyway, I'm sure this would piss anyone off- and while I can't comment on their food, I most certainly will never spend a penny there again. In fact, I'll try my hardest to let every person I know not to either (not that they need help keeping people away). Wow. Just. Wow. What a joke! read more

Cute dive bar. Cheap beer. I had the Bacon cheese burger with fries. If the fries haven't been crazy salted I'd give it five. Cool bartender. After driving for 10.5 hours it was a good end to the day. read more

Mr. Smith's is a typical bar/sports bar with a "locals" feel to it. They have a basic bar menu, burgers, sandwiches, fried appetizers, etc. The food comes out hot and tastes good. It isn't gourmet but it is tasty. Drinks are good and not overpriced. If you are looking for a easy burger/bar dinner or a couple drinks Mr. Smith's will fit the bill. Waitstaff is attentive which is not always the case here in the valley. Oh, the potato salad is pretty darn good. So are the onion rings. read more

Love how cheap the drinks are here. Definitely not watered down and the girls that work here are friendlier than most other bars In the area. read more

"Biggest burger in town" and "World famous potato salad" are the two lines on the exterior of the building that drew us in. Well, that and the kid was with his friends so we were finally able to venture into a 21+ establishment. I was not immediately impressed with the decor or the service. The overall attitude of the bartender was annoyance at having to come out from around the bar. And the server (and cook) could be likened more to a worker in a gentleman's club than this joint. Who exposes that much cleavage in front of a broiler? I ordered the cheesesticks with both ranch and marinara. I'm sorry--but I need both to enjoy the awesomeness that is fried cheese. Unfortunately, it wasn't until the cook brought them out that we learned they were out. Nice. The burgers were just ok. Large, yes, but only because the beef patty was super thin and super wide. It wasn't hand formed, and it wasn't that good. They did provide nearly a whole onion though. That was nice. The potato salad was JUST like the sutff my mom makes. Complete with hardboiled eggs. Kind of bland, but definately homemade. I doubt I will return. The food wasn't good enough to warrant it, and the service was too poor to entice another chance. read more

First, Mr. Smith's has really good potato salad. I called Saturday, July 14, 2018 at 12:30 PM to order a quart. The lady answering the phone said can you hold a minute and set the phone down. 15 minutes on hold and yelling hello got no results. Pretty clear she didn't want to take the order. Tried calling back over half-hour period and the phone was off the hook. read more

I met some friends at Mr. Smiths today. I ordered a Bloody Mary and it was delicious! I also ordered a bacon cheeseburger with fries and ranch dressing, also delicious! Service was great! read more

This is my new favorite bar. Want sports... they have them on LOTS of TV's Want a variety of beers... the have them! Anything from domestics to micro brews. Want the best burger in southern Oregon... They have them! This place exceeded my expectations. read more

Call when you're concerned about a person who frequently is a huge spender to bissnes and have been taking advantage by quite a bit of lot of money,by the waitresses in loans, and other low lifes people's from escort service for the wonderful way to make it work for them, but I know that any one who goes to Mr, Smith often have noticed the situation with the older men's being catering by skill fully trained waitresses, with the manager Billy who has never had a good regards for the innocent people who are going o read more

Folks are great! Great place to enjoy a game and just hang! Wings are amazing! I highly recommend!

Really tasty burgers & fries. They say their potato salad is "almost world-famous", and with good reason; it is a very tasty traditional version. Service is great. The bartenders are attentive and friendly. Good place for watching the game and grabbing a bite anytime. read more

Another great local Medford joint serving up great lunches in an awesome sports bar arena. The bacon cheese burger is tasty and has a really good grill taste. Feels like your tailgating. Also, my favorite burger spots have fry sauce, and Mr Smith's has one of the best around. Make sure to squeeze some fry sauce on your burger!! Good price and relaxed atmosphere. Service was excellent. Great job! read more

Very tasty burgers at very resonable prices. My husband and I both got burgers and sodas, and were under $25. We left VERY full. And the potato salad was amazing. read more

It's a sports bar... Food was good not a chain type sports bar but a local watering hole... Sunday watching Hawks play on 5 TVs 2 waitresses kept busy keeping the beer flowing will come back! read more

Enjoyed watching Super Bowl Sunday here very much! Not only was it a nice mix of fans, but the $2.25 tacos were over the top good! Great service, clean bathrooms and lots of TV's with a nice local feel. Walking distance from my motel makes this a winner. Won like four of the raffle prizes too! A sports bar like this would slay in Seattle, where I live. Glad I didn't have to witness the mass depression after the Seahawks lost, had I been back at home and not on the road. read more

This place looks super divey from the outside looking in, but once inside I was impressed with all of the open seating and the very inviting down home sports pub feel. This place is an Oregon Ducks bar, so if you're a Beaver get the f**k out! Just kidding....all are welcome here I'm sure, but it's obvious who these folks are rooting for when there's a Ducks game on. Go Ducks! I heard the burgers here were really good so I tried a double cheeseburger (I was hungry) with tots and a beer. Delicious burger! Nothing fancy, but it was just a nice classic diner burger with tons of flavor, and the tots were yum as well. There were about 6 or 7 beers on tap if I remember correctly, I was pleased with the choices. There are a ton of TV's in this place, so no matter what game you're wanting to see I'm sure these folks can get you dialed in. I could have sat at any angle in this bar and seen a TV. If you're looking for a fun, friendly sports bar with great food and a hometown feel, this is as good as it gets! Enjoy! read more

Nothing special here. If you are looking to watch a game and drink some beer then it's a good place. Food is very basic. Nothing big about the big ass burger and three potato salad was way to salty. Unfortunately I won't be back. read more
