Third time trying this restaurant, hoping that things would improve in a post-covid world but sadly they haven't even a little bit. Service was lackluster; we seated ourselves and were not provided menus until we were seated for several minutes. The server never offered water and didn't take our drink order until she took our food order for several more minutes. The restaurant was not busy, there was one other family sat and one table that was just drinking. We ordered for three people and waited a whole hour for food. The server never offered to bring our appetizers or onion rings out first. The food that was delivered was a mix of mediocre. One plate with a slider and Mac and cheese had sat under the light for so long that the Mac and cheese dried on the top and the slider bun was tough and dry. Upon offering our feedback on the wait time and the quality of the food to the server she remarked that her service was good and the food was not her fault. In fact she shared with us that the cook on shift that evening (Nathan) was horrible to work with and had frequent outbursts, was constantly overwhelmed and that we would be better off coming when a different cook was on shift. She did not offer to comp any of our food. We all left feeling really bad about wanting to support a local business but committing to never visiting this restaurant again because it just sucked. Everything about it sucked. read more

We went for dinner here last Thursday and I was just so un impressed. I got a Reuben which was covered in fat. I have never ever had a Rueben so fatty that cut of meat should always be lean. I would have never made a review as I have never before but I was just flabbergasted. I took one bite and sent it back which is also something I do not do. I was extremely kind and just handed them my food and told them I could not eat it. My appetite was gone after that so I didn't want anything else so I figured as normal restaurant etiquette they would just comp my meal. As to my surprise the meal was still on my check. I had asked our server if she just forgot to take it off and she said they don't normally take things off of checks????? What?!!!! I have been a server for 8 years and if someone does not like the meal we provided them we immediately comp their meal. At the end of the day every restaurant should be wanting customers to come back and as I said I totally would have if they would have just comped my $18 meal that I sent back and literally left still hungry. Now I will not be back. Our server was very fun and nice at first but very forgetful and did not check on us once after someone dropped our food off. read more

So sad, this place had such potential. Beautiful mural on the wall, nice tables. But please don't serve me a steak salad with large pieces of fat that are supposed to be steak. read more

Tasty drinks, great service. Our server Taylor was awesome. Super nice, fun, energetic. She made our night. Food was good, a little spendy, but good. The place was clean and comfortable too. read more

Love this place!!! A good selection of beer, wine and spirits, live music on the weekends, and the French dip is the best I've ever had!!! Wholeheartedly recommend. Staff is great as well. read more

It is wonderful to have a restaurant/bar so close to home. We enjoy our Saturday night drink and the occasional dinner from here. The food is usually spot on and Mary provides the BEST service we could ask for! We look forward to her upbeat smiley self weekly! No pictures of food this go around because I forgot to bring my phone. read more

My wife and I have enjoyed North 3rd since it opened. Service is good once seated and food is good. We especially have liked the Nachos. We have told friends they are the best nachos around. Our friends have reported back that they too really like the Nachos. BUT...... the past week we've gone in twice, ordered Nachos and been very disappointed. Something has changed!! The cheese used to have some heat to it and more flavor. We hope it's just temporary. Atmosphere is nice. Staff usually good. Decor very nice. Please get back to those super good nachos if you can. read more

Service was extremely poor with a 45 minute wait for a slider. Four people at the table next to us got up and left before being served. Very few customers in the place other than lottery game enthusiasts. Our family and friends wont be back. read more

This was my second visit. The service was great and they were so friendly. The food was piping hot and delicious. My server was on point. Whenever I needed something I didn't even have to ask her. It started to get busy towards the end of my visit but my server made sure that I had everything I needed. Ask for Nancy or Aaron. read more

North Third - Hand breaded chicken tenders, side salad,and coleslaw. With a side of house made sweet chili sauce that was delectable! - Sports Bars Near Me - Stayton, Oregon

My husband and I stopped in here for lunch right after they opened on a Friday. The bartender/waitress was amazing and super hospitable. Exceptional service overall. Food was really good. I got a burger and my husband got the gyro. Both cooked very well and the fries were perfectly salted/seasoned. As it got busier the waitress was handling all the tables and still checking on us. Seriously, she was a 10! Definitely recommend checking this place out. read more

I really wish I could recommend it they never really bounced back after Covid. Has always taken a long time to get food but now it takes forever to be greeted and the food is not what it used to be. read more

Best spot in Stayton. Great selection of beers on tap. Food is always super good. Never had a bad experience here. One suggestion: please bring back tuna tacos! read more

Delicious. Great options and everything our group ordered was great food and drink. If you aren't hungry Or thirsty, just stop in to see the steampunk style tap set it! Pretty amazing. read more

Unfortunately in Stayton, OR there isn't alot to choose from. However, this place is fantastic and better than just about anything you'll find in bigger cities! We as a family had the poutine with fried cheese curds which was better than I imagined. The steak frites had hangar steak which is a high quality cut and was cooked a perfect medium rare. The caesar salad was refreshing and delicious. The beer battered cod was amazing and needed no garnishment. The beer selection rivals many other tap houses. The portions were generous and the price is well worth it. Definitely a go to place for my family in the future! read more

Food is decent. Service is slow at dinner. Don't go here if you have a time limit. However, afternoon the bartender was on it!!!

The food here is fantastic compared to most of the other restaurants in Stayton. I recommend the Steak Frites if you don't mind a lot of cilantro. read more

Just like a Mcmennamins! Freaky cold, extremely slow service!!! There are better eateries in Stayton, try them first. Actually 1/2 a star........ read more

We recently visited North Third and had lunch there. We sat on the bar side of the restaurant, (there is a second side which is kid-friendly). The menu is a two-sided type and had a good variety of things to order. I ordered a Jalapeño Pepper Jack burger with fries. The burger looked very good when I got it. The burger patty appeared hand-made and it was absolutely delicious! It had cheese, a good amount of jalapeños and bacon! I even commented to my wife that it was the best burger I had had in a very long time! And the fries...oh my goodness, they were SO good!! Thick cut and fried to perfection! Very tasty. My wife ordered a simple burger called a Happy Burger. It was slightly smaller than my "regular" burger but also appeared to have a hand-made patty. It came with three different types of cheese and another generous portion of super delicious fries! I wish I had taken a picture of our food before we scarfed it down but, I didn't. Suffice to say, we will return for lunch again, (soon I hope), and I will get that Jalapeño Pepper Jack burger again!! I'm already looking forward to it. So good! Prices were right in line also. Definitely worth a visit! read more

Great food and ambiance. Service usually excellent. This is one of my go to places to eat lunch and/or dinner.

Ok... I'll give you my over all review. B-. Easy fixes. Mostly a waitress issue. She was pleasant. Food was good. B grade.Atmosphere is perfect. Loved the tunes and volume was just right.Food was good. No one came to see if food was good/need anything/refills. Had to ask for salt and pepper. She had a nice personality. Wait to get in was probably about 30 min. So probably about 2.5 hours total for a burger meal. We will give it another try for sure. read more

Fun and inviting atmosphere with good food and tons of drink choices with over 30 taps!

Classy atmosphere. Great food and beers on tap. Staff is super nice. Good takes a bit but worth it since they cook from scratch!

I agree with the previous post regarding wait times for food and service. Our table of 2 and one other table in the entire place, super slow service. Manager type person was sitting at the end of the bar eating his lunch of Chinese food, kind of shocking to see this as this person should be modeling better behavior as a manager. We had the fish & chips and the Jalapeño burger with drinks. Drinks were stiff and food was just basic..nothing too special. Not sure we will be back. read more

I like this new place! I like the atmosphere and the food. My daughter had the fish and chips and she said it was good! We also had nachos and I ordered the the burger with a vegan patty. Our server was really nice and she made sure to refill our drinks. We will be going back again! read more

North Third - Food! Vegan burger with sweet potato fries and chicken nachos. - Sports Bars Near Me - Stayton, Oregon

I was disappointed with their food, service and prices! I would rather spend my money at a place with comfortable seating. We had the 20$ soggy nachos. They use some kid of runny cheese sauce. No salsa included. read more

I have made multiple visits here and have had similar experiences each time. Really long wait for food (over an hour each time) and the quality is below average. Prices too high for the amount and quality of the meal. read more

Went with my Grandma recently, had an Apple Pie Craft Beer. The place is kept very well, and has a super nice crew. I recommend the regular fries and their (to die for) ranch. read more

I tried this place on the recommendation of a friend. I was there mid-afternoon for a late lunch, not too crowded. I ordered the Crispy Chicken sandwich, which was OK, but they use a lot of sauce, and the bread is chewy and tough to cut, so I couldn't pick it up like a sandwich, had to knife/fork it to eat. The fries were plentiful and excellent. They have a good range of choice for beers and ciders. Lots of sports TVs if you're into that. Pool tables. The worst part for me was the music - fairly loud, and for a younger crowd... some Rap/Hip-hop, etc. The place is large, high-ceiling, concrete block walls, wood floors - it's Echo-y, and jarring.... read more

Great food, but slow service. We'll return because we understand that things are different with COVID-19.

Server was nice but working by herself. Wife ordered a burger dairy free no cheese with no bun, came with a bun and cheese. I ordered Steak Frites cooked medium... fries were not even cooked and steak was brown rubber. Other 3 peoples fries also sucked. I think they microwaved the fries to cook for them. Soft on the outside and raw in the middle. Server was nice but probably the worst meal I've paid for going out for dinner in years. read more

Holy moley!! This place is SLOW. Be prepared to drink w/o food. Sorry we came.

Went here yesterday for happy hour, but not so happy. There were three other tables of people and a couple people at the bar when we walked in. We ordered two sliders with fries and a fish taco off the happy hour menu. It took 45 minutes to get our food!!! And we had to walk up to the bar to order a second round of drinks. Three gals working, but I think we were bothering them. Food was pretty good once we got it and the atmosphere is cool, but we won't be going back. They took off one round of drinks and offered a dessert but we were ready to get out of there. Too bad. Stayton doesn't have many restaurants. This one could be great but maybe they should train their staff and have an owner or manager present to make sure guests are served appropriately. Oh, and a table of four people got up and left after waiting for their food for over 40 minutes right after we got our food or we probably would have done the same thing. read more

Loved eating here. The atmosphere is very pleasant, the wait staff has great attitudes & the food was amazing. It did take a little bit to get checked on & the ticket, but that wasn't a problem since there were two waitstaff & available tables were filling up for lunch. Also, clearly adhering to COVID-19 guidelines made me feel comfortable during my lunch. read more

Was in there last Saturday night with 6 others. There were two other tables of 2 in the bar side as well. At about 8:50 we were told they were closing and we needed to pay our tab. The other two tables were also told it was time to leave as well as another couple who was immediately turned away as we were paying. How do you consider yourself a bar when you are closing at 9pm on a Saturday night with paying customers in there? This is the second time this has happened. The first was during the week and we just assumed that was the reason but not a Saturday night. We politely paid our bills and went to another bar in town who gladly took our money and orders after 9!!! read more

Friend took me here. Food was very good. Lots of different ciders to choose from. Will be back.

So we went to check out North Third tonight and they were packed. We debated to go in the bar or restaurant, but we chose the bar because there were a few table open. We sat down and we were literally ignored but 3 servers for about 10mins. Finally a guy server told us there was a list that we needed to get on - mind you he is practically yelling at us from down the bar for all to hear. I told him we were not aware of that and maybe he should lock the bar door. He said "there's a sign that say wait to be seated" I told him that it did not say that, it says "watch your step". He continued to argue with me - making it a point to go over to the sign and whipped it around to everyone to prove to us when all of a sudden he realized it did IN FACT say "watch your step". Did he apologize?? Hell no!!! Will we ever go back? Maybe because we understand being full with limited servers but to be RUDE like that??? Very unprofessional!!! read more

This place is really cool inside and has a great menu. I have to say one wait staff there is horrible! She is the older short red hair woman. We are locals to Stayton and have had three dealings with this woman and all bad!! She is rude disrespectful and and possibly homophobic. We really hoped that the remodel from Rumors was going to be a good thing for Stayton but people like her reminds me of the poor service that Rumors was. In this crazy world right now there are many places failing do to lack of business and with employees like her North 3 rd will not last. Too bad. read more

Great food, great service! Will be back! Nice to see the friendly faces again!! We had a party of 7 and everything was awesome. Thanks for keeping us safe and welcoming us in! read more

North Third was great. Rad atmosphere, good food, good people. Chris helped us and was so informed about beers, and the food served, we were really impressed! I am proud to have a place like this open up in the town I love! read more

The food is really good. Expect a long wait as the kitchen is not fast. Service is mediocre, not sure if it's a covid thing or typical.
