Had a late lunch on a beautiful fall afternoon, sun shining in the warm pub this place was busy ! Staff was attentive and friendly. Homemade Hummus platter SO GOOD I had the Blackened snapper salad and it was delicious and refreshing. I forgot to take a picture of my daughter's kids size fish and chip but portion was quite large. read more

Plank town has sadly gone downhill. Use to be one of my favorite food venues. It is on my path between some work stops, so I have been stopping by approximately once a month ( at least) for several years. Prior to that it was a frequent weekend destination for good eats with a northwest atmosphere. The past three times I've been there I've complained about the quality and consistency of the food. In two of those three cases I was comped some of the meal, which is definitely nice, but I guess I'd prefer a good meal that I don't feel that I need to complain about. The last time (third bad meal in a row), not only were the fries burnt and served in one clump together, but the dip for my sando was gelatinous ( never before seen this consistency), and it took an extraordinary amount of time to receive my lunch during the week. I asked the bartender if there had been some change in ownership or something ( just trying to make sense of the issues). He seemed offended at my questioning even though it was VERY clear that there were issues. I watched waitstaff handle food ( lift buns to see what was on the sando), food sit in the window getting cold, arguments between kitchen and waitstaff, and one customer who stood up and yelled about not having an hour and a half for a work lunch. And while I don't support his approach, I ditto the sentiment. However, if the food were good it might be excusable. But to wait that long for crappy food is not excusable. Three strikes. Won't be back. read more

Ambiance is good, beer is good. But service was not good, our food was cold, we saw it sit in the window for 5-10 minutes. Food was mediocre once it arrived, lettuce was wilted... probably better options in the area! read more

Our food and service was really good. Was a little skeptical when we read some reviews and glad we decided to try it anyways.

Walked in here for dinner a couple months back randomly. It seemed warm and cozy and perfect for a quick family dinner. It was perfect. No wait, not too crowded, great service. The best part?! I had the best burger of my life here! And when I tried it I wasn't even that hungry. It was just too good, and I'm not even a huge burger fan. Since it was my first time in I'm terrified that next time it won't be as good, but I'll have to go in and see for myself! read more

This review is only for the beer only. Came by after a nice bike ride along the Wilamette. Came only for the brews. Had the Cherry Wheat and Black Forest Porter. Comparing these two is like apples and oranges depending on your mood I guess. Black Forest Porter had a light taste in spite of it's dark color. Didn't go wrong with either read more

Slow service, bland food and an unapologetic staff. I told my waitress the food wasn't good and she said sorry and didn't offer any suggestions to remedy the situation. The calamari was actually not edible, the pulled pork had no sauce or flavor - haven't had food this bad in the area. Total for terrible food - $90 - wow, never again read more

Good service, good portions and tasty food. Burgers juicy, fries not too salty, seasoning brings out the flavours of the dishes. read more

I can tend to be pretty picky, and I am very impressed with plank Town! Walking into the restaurant, there a nice pleasant ambiance and atmosphere, cool looking floors, nice decor. Food was amazing!! I had the grilled chicken sandwich, the chicken was juicy and flavorful, cooked thoroughly, with the toppings and had pesto on it! My husband had a burger that looked like one of those perfect burgers you see on tv that makes you say, "I wish the burger really looked like this." Well it did look like a masterpiece burger! Then it came with Parmesan, garlic fries! They did not skimp on the Parmesan and garlic! My sandwich came with pumpkin chipotle soup! It was one of the best soups I've ever had! Along with really great service, and very nice employees! I highly recommend this place! read more

Oh gosh, let me say a word or two about one of my favorite places, Plank Town Brewing Co. I want to tell ya that these folks are working their tails off through all this nonsense thats going and from what I seen today when I was there, they are doing a wonderful job of it. I ordered the Main Street Burger, which was stacked high with tomato, lettuce and pickles and done to mouth watering perfection. And then there was the fries with weren't the regular fries that you find in most places but these are hand cut fries and their house made ketchup is something completely different from the regular bottled stuff ya find at most places. In fact I ordered a second measure of the dang stuff, I liked it so much. And caped it off with a couple of Riptooth IPAs which was good enough but I must say that I liked it well enough but I have had better, it just all depends on what they happen to have brewed up at the time. The service was really sweet, friendly and helpful and doing all they could to make it a positive experience for me in spite of all the social distancing and stuff going on. Thanks Plank Town I will be back! read more

Disappointing meal of grilled Caesar salad w steelhead salmon because instead of salmon I was served chicken. The meal consisted of 3" of grilled sliced chicken and about 5 full slices of romaine lettuce. A misunderstanding with the waitress who crossed off my order of salmon and somehow said I requested chicken. Anyway, service was prompt. The beers were okay. The pulled pork sandwich was okay, nothing to write home about. Pretty sure I wouldn't come back read more

It's always difficult for me to write a review that could be taken to be as disparaging. I feel like everyone, and every place can/does have an occasional "off" day. I also try to factor in that it's largely impossible to offer a good and/or service that will appease 100% of the people 100% of the time. Even with that in mind... I'm also a guy who would fight you on the position that Taco Bell & Carls Jr are fine foods with impeccable service. Sooooo.... I'm pretty friggin easy to please. Even if I weren't such a connoisseur, I'd know enough to know that when you sit at the bar in an establishment... during a rather slow (wayyy less than even 1/4 capacity) middle of the week evening... witness as many as 3 employees behind the bar who've made eye contact with you more than once as they've walked by to BS with the guy at the other side of the bar, or one another.... and I can't seem to get any acknowledgement that my glass of water has been empty since moments after you gave it to me.... I know that is kinda crap. Listen... It should be clear from the number of reviews that I write, and the the ease with which I tend throw out 4+ star reviews, that I'm not asking a whole lot. I've eaten at far more places than I've reviewed, and I'm pretty sure If I were to average out the experiences... this wasn't a case of people being busy at work, but it was definitely a case of them NOT looking after their customer. Even more impressive when the customer is 1 of 3 at the bar, and 1 of maybe 15 in the building. I generally reserve my criticisms NOT for things that are as subjective as the taste of a meal, but more for things along the lines of service/cleanliness. So I'll be clear.... the place was very comfy! I like the woodwork on the inside, a lot. I also don't have anything really negative to say for the food. I sure wouldn't rank the burger and fries as top 10, even with Carls Jr. being included. But I wouldn't dare call it garbage either. Again... subjective bit here. The service however... not good. Sure, all three of the women that I apparently became invisible to were sweet and chatty ladies. But apparently I don't have enough tattooing to be part of the club. Disappointed. I waited some time to try Plank Town, largely because they're pretty busy pretty often. It's left me not at all excited to try again. Loved the layout. Didn't mind the food. Price/cleanliness was great. Service was on my list of not so good. read more

My bacon cheeseburger on a gluten-free bun was leaving me in OMG I finished my whole big A... yummy burger!! House made ranch was like Best Ever tasting ranch dressing! All fresh from scratch! Just the way my taste buds like it! Service was unreal/surreal Exceptionally Excellent!!! read more

This brew pub & restaurant was a surprising find in downtown Springfield. I was craving a salad... I really enjoyed a side salad with fig-balsamic reduction, and a bowl of coconut ginger carrot soup. The salad had arugula, tomatoes, cucumber, radishes & rings of pickled onion that were so satisfying. We tried 4 beers, and liked them all: FURTHR Amber, Hobbit's Habit, Irish Red Ale and the Streetcar Stout. All were smooth and low hops, just why we were looking for. Our server, Mollie, was wonderful, capping a delightful outdoor dining experience. We will definitely return here! read more

food is good but the servers are very busy and the place echos noises and is very loud

As a brewery this place is great. They have a large selection of beers. The food meets a nice range financially. If you just want some nachos with your beer, they can accommodate that easily. If you want a nine dollar burger with a few amazing salads, they can do that as well. If you want a nice fancy dinner with a few good options, you can definitely find that here. Overall the food is good but a little limited in choices. Personally, when there is a full bar I would hope the bartender can make a wide range of drinks. That is something you won't find as much at this bar. They tend to keep the list the same and are good at making the same drink over and over. Being that's it's a brewery first that makes sense, and that's why they still received four stars from me. The best aspect of this restaurant is the atmosphere. With both indoor and outdoor seating, tables and booths, even picnic tables... the mood here is always happy and fun. Plank Town will always be on the list for a good beer and meal location, it's just not at the top of the list. read more

I'm really giving this place a 2.5 but since there is no partial, I'll round up. Let me start with the positives: - The venue is really really nice. The wood bar, the wood table, the wood seats, the wood moldings, the wood everything. This place is perfect for groups or on a date. - The service was awesome. Our server was Jenna and she was super sweet and kind and just a lovely presence. - The drinks. My fiance had the blueberry basil and was really good. Now for the negatives: - The food was really really bland. We ordered the calamari and though it looked appetizing, it had no taste. The aoli that came with it didn't add any flavor as well. We ended up adding salt to give it some taste. The same can be said with the tri tip. It was very dry and once again no taste. My fiance ordered the steelhead salmon salad and unfortunately she did not enjoy it due to the dressing. Overall, we did not enjoy our food. As much as we liked the place and the service the food really killed it for us. If we ever go back, it will just be for the drinks. read more

Phenomenal , 5/5 . Get the Main Street burger with cheddar and a bear iron stout and you're set . If I lived closer I would be here once a month at leaSt . The bartenders and staff were pleasant and helpful , kitchen on point , and cute interior . read more

We stopped here for lunch and it was great. Beers, food and service were all great. I think everything (beers, food) was made in house.

It's very overpriced and not worth the hype. Its a cute setting for downtown Springfield but don't waste your money. Food came out fast but not the best. Gave my boyfriend and I both a stomach ache. The French Fries were the best part of the place. read more

I hope you don't run into the attitude that I just did at this bar, because no customer in any restaurant deserves that. Here's how it went: I sit down and wait for easily 5 minutes waiting for service. A waiter has to step behind the bar to get me a water and a menu. I then order a beer by name. Bartender "Jenna" repeats my order to me and walks away. She the proceeds to completely space it off and come back to me and asks me for my order again about 10 minutes later. I ask if she forgot the beer I ordered and instead of apologizing (customer is always right?) and getting my beer right away, she said that she thought I said I didn't want anything. This was after she repeated my order to me? Hey-I'm human and I forget stuff all the time and would have totally accepted this but she then coped this "I'm right you are wrong attitude" My bill for that beer was $5.50. I put down $6 and she asks me if I need change. Wow. read more

Bartender made me feel like an inconvenience more than a customer. Was very sociable with the next group over, asking if they wanted more drinks and to order food and hanging out to socialize whileI felt like I could not get their attention. Ended up not ordering food and only one beer after they made it clear they didn't want me there... read more

Plank town used to be a solid gem. Not sure now that they changed chefs. As someone who is gluten free, not by choice, I was able to get food at Planktown and never was gluttened. They used to have gluten free waffle buns that you could replace with any burger or sandwich. This was unlike any other place in the Eugene/Springfield area and really set them apart from other places. It was also good enough that my husband, who isn't gf loved getting it. Unfortunately this is no longer offered. We have been there 3 times since things changed hoping they were just ironing things out, but it seems things have changed. Got their chicken entree as it was gf and the chicken was under-seasoned and over priced for what came on the dish. It was covered in sliced tomatoes when it was listed that they were grilled "blistered" tomatoes. They also have tons of items on their menu listed as gluten free that are actually NOT gluten free and are put in the frier with other gluten. They need to, at the very least, change how they list their items as GFa on the menu as this is misleading. read more

Honestly, if I were reviewing on their housemade ketchup and strawberry vinaigrette alone... they'd get like 10 stars. I'd eat a shoe if it were covered in either sauce. Which also kinda lets you know how I feel about the rest of their food. I'm on the fence about their food. Would I like their food if it weren't for their house made ketchup? Probably, probably not. And they only give you a small thimble of it per fry order. So you have to keep asking for more and then at the end of your meal you're surrounded by 20 empty ketchup containers and hating yourself. I love they're flights though! Especially the stout one. read more

Great food and great beer. I would suggest so many items from the menu, that would take way to long to list though. The pulled pork cheese fries are absolutely the best I've had or tried. Special shout out the the staff and an especially amazing manager. The manager has gone above and beyond for satisfaction to his team and customers. read more

The food is simply amazing. There's not a single bad item on the menu. Practically everything is made from scratch with quality ingredients. The decor is great. Great vibe, eclectic. The beer is to die for. Can you say Hobbit's Little Helper? Unobtanium? Nothing makes my day better than enjoying my favorite entree, the Apple Pork Dip with beer cheese au jus and an Unobtanium. This is easily one of the best gastropubs in all Eugene. Hands down. Now you may be asking why someone who is raving about Sprigfield's best secret is giving it only one star? It's simple- I'm being petty. You see, I absolutely love, love, love the Apple Pork Dip sandwich with beer cheese au jus. I order it practically every visit. However, it only comes with a meager portion of the beer cheese au jus. I get it, not everyone is going to want a full cup of it, so if you're the restaurant, it doesn't make sense to give huge portions. So being the zealot I am, I ask for another side to dip my sandwich and they tell me it's a $2 dollar upcharge. Seems petty, but it's so damn amazing, like liquid gold, that I have no choice. They're a business, they are there to make money, I get it. However, for $2 bucks they bring you another meager portion exactly like the first. It's roughly a third of the cup. Again, I understand giving folks low portions, not everyone is going to want a full cup. But if you're going to charge me for extra sauce, you better fill up the cup. The sandwich is $12, I really gotta pay a third more just to get a full cup of sauce that probably should be free to begin with? That's just petty. So if you're going to be petty, I'm going to be petty with my review. If management at Plank Town would like to stop being petty over the beer cheese au jus portion size when you pay for extra, I'll gladly change my review to the five stars it so richly deserves. You'll see from the photos from my last to-go order you'll see what I'm talking about. read more

Wowza. First time at Plank Town Brewery and I just experienced the best (Steelhead) and Chips! Matt had the seafood po boy with fried oysters and shrimp.

Food is sloppy, under seasoned & missing protein. We ordered two of the specials which were Chicken Cavatappi with white wine & lemon sauce, both plates were missing chicken. Our third person ordered the grilled chicken sandwich, which the chicken was burnt and the pesto was light a-key ingredient. Fries were so salty we couldn't eat them. Salad was light on croutons & dressing. This is our second poor experience here in 2 months, we will not be back. Service was good, not all our servers fault for the kitchen's lacking. Ambiance was fine. read more

Arriving on a Friday at 7pm, our party of five had about a 20-30 minute wait for a table. No problem for us, so we cozied up to the bar to get some drinks while we waited. A bartender came over within a minute or two to set down some menus, asking if we were getting food or just waiting for a table. When I confirmed the latter, he immediately asked "What do you want?" as I picked up the tap list. I responded with a "Well, I don't know yet..." looking over at my friends who hadn't even seen menus. The bartender stared blankly at me for a moment and abruptly turned around and walked away. Hm, okay... The bar area seats were about 2/3 full and it didn't appear to be slammed for the 3-4 bartenders working the counter. Fortunately, a second bartender came over to check on us about 5 minutes later and so we ordered with him. Bartender #2 was much friendlier and I'm happy to have given my tips to his nice service over Bartender #1. But, hey, maybe #1 was just having a bad night. For the most part, everyone in our party seemed to enjoy their food choices (a couple of burgers, sandwiches, and the chicken and waffles). Though Plank Town's fries appear to be hand-cut, which I usually love, they weren't my favorite. Seemed a bit dark/overcooked and not very crispy, also lacking seasoning. My husband and I tried two different IPAs (Riptooth and Frisco Mist) with dinner and I would give Plank Town's brews a 6/10 based on what we tried. I would really like to give this place a 3.5 instead, though maybe truly a 3.4 as I can't seem to feel enough to round up to a 4 star review. That said, I'm not deterred from coming back here at all. It definitely is an A-OK spot. I've heard Plank Town is a great spot for brunch! read more

I got the chilaquiles, and they were pretty good as well. I got to try out this place with my friend on accident, since we were really going to try out the place next door. They were a bit small, but they were good. Overall, a decent place considering that it was a Sunday. read more

We visited your place on Wednesday after noon after a good, long hike. I had a pint of Hobbit's Habit. Delicious, malty and well balanced. And the Nashville spicey bbq sandwich was outstanding.

The gluten-free herbed waffle is now off the menu Limited but available GF dishes. The salmon dish was tasty.

This brewery has been an integral part of the revitalization of downtown Springfield...as such, I wanted to visit Plank several times before writing a review, or coming to any decisions based on a single visit. Unfortunately, the visits I've experienced are all the same.... Beer is excellent...food is mediocre at best. And if you don't like garlic...forgetaboutit! I don't think there is a single thing on the menu that isn't buried in garlic. Pros: Beer Atmosphere and vibe are excellent Cons: Hostess and wait staff are a mixed bag - depending on who you get on what day, it can be a good or bad experience. When we were seated this last time, the hostess jammed 4 couples into a corner by a screaming kid...while the rest of the place sat empty - excluding the bar. Food - honestly, it's awful. They source locally for most ingredients...so I can only assume the guy making or cooking has no idea what to do... We won't be going back. read more

Some of the best food in downtown Springfield. Nice ambiance and outdoor seating. I really enjoyed the wilted Ceaser salad

Was looking for a new bar to try, went online and looked at many of them. I planned to make this my dinner with some brew so chose to come here because of the fantastic menu they seemed to have. I was not disappointed ! Great selection and my particular sandwich was among the best I have eaten at a bar. Besides the great food of course the beer did not disappoint Ethier. But the most satisfying and enjoyable part of my visit was the extraordinary staff. Direct from the kitchen area with my food. Skillfully moving around the bar to deliver our drinks while making all the other beverages for the rest of the house. I applauded the staff especially Jenna and the bar crew. I will return.
