I recently had the pleasure of dining at Rosebud Cafe, and it was an unforgettable experience. The food was absolutely amazing, reminiscent of a home-cooked meal from mom. Every bite was filled with warmth and flavor, making it a truly comforting and satisfying experience. The cook and owner were incredibly inviting, making us feel like part of their family from the moment we walked in. Their hospitality added a personal touch that made our visit even more special. The cafe itself has an eccentric vibe that we absolutely loved. It's cozy, unique, and full of character, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Rosebud Cafe has quickly become a staple in our restaurant selections, and we can't wait to return. Oh and the caliber of live music they have is amazing! I'm so glad we tried this place! We will be back many times! read more

Great Beer, Great People and Great Music Menu is solid with better than average items to eat. They're known for their nightly live music. If you love live music of all styles, this is your place, if you like to be around a waitstaff and owner who care about the customer's happiness and entertaining you, this is your place. With everything from pool tables to creative cocktails, they've got you covered. So, go for the food and drinks, stay for the music. Music is outdoors under a giant tent with lots of seating and a large place to dance. read more

Good service and atmosphere. There food is amazing. A little understaffed. Needs a little updating but highly recommended

The man and I came here on a Sunday afternoon. We order a cup of clam chowder to start. Really yummy. Hearty and delicious! Next came the burgers. They came out right when we finished our soup. I got the bbq burger. It was huge, and really good. WARNING, it's messy. Totally worth it. This place has a great food and great service! Will be back! read more

Rosebud Cafe - American Near Me - Scappoose, Oregon

The owner of Rosebud makes the place so fun with his quirky personality and love for all things music. Would love to go back for a show sometime. read more

Great little gem of a restaurant. The lasagna is Nona approved. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere has a hometown feel. we'll be back often. read more

We've lived in Scappoose going on seven years and we've given Rosebud our business, off and on, since moving here. We recognize that the owner is really trying in a tough economic and business time. There's no getting around the fact that restaurant ownership is hard. But, every time we go there, the experience is just that much more of a disappointment. First, you never know when the place is going to be open. Second, the quality of food has really fallen. And the place needs a good cleaning, some adequate marketing and something to make it look even a little inviting from the street. It's great that they are one of the only places in town that offers live music, but the rest of the experience falls pretty short. We wish them the best, but I'm just not sure we'll give it yet one more try. It's too bad, because it could be so much more than it is, potentially one of the better places in Scappoose. If you're just looking for a cocktail and some music, it's not a bad choice, but don't expect much more in its current condition. read more

Great place for a Big size juicy burger and great fries and fry sauce for them. Lasagna was really good and cheese was plenty, is Moms recipe and 2 slices of garlic toast. Everything was good sized but fries cooked to early sort of cold. They have a good sized bar and Oregon lottery game machines. Very nice crew and customers and even a good customer brought some little pears in to share by back steps. Thanks We will be back for another big burger patty for me. I'm not into bread. I wanted a club with avocado but lasagna was calling me first. Go and enjoy this place with parking in back also. read more

Great little place if you look at the pictures and prepare your expectations accordingly. We weren't able to stay for the live music but the food was tasty and filling. Good service. read more

Fun place with an old-school roadhouse vibe. Friendly staff and great music. There's a covered outdoor area and they stream all the music performances on their fb so you can wave hi to your friends to get them to come down and join you and then you can all watch the videos later. Their house band (I think it's their house band) plays lots of Dead covers -- need a miracle? Come on down! read more

Groovy local Pub and Cafe with LIVE Music, good food, and no Cover Charge. Great Band, Chicken Enchiladas and Burgers with generous Fries on this visit. Oct 27 Alexa Wiley and the Wilderness plays for a Haloween Costume Party, with prizes. Love the Deadhead Memorabilia...i will be back. Worth a drive. read more

Rosebud Cafe - Alexa Wiley and The Wilderness bring lots of orig. Tunes to The Rosebud. Great Venue and very tastu food! Come alone or bring friends. - American Near Me - Scappoose, Oregon

I have had so much fun at the Rosebud Cafe! It is so nice to have a place where I can bring my kiddos! The live music is amazing. The food is beautiful and hot hot hot!!! The server Cindy treats my kiddos like family. The chef Robbie is so welcoming and accommodating! The owner Don is wants everyone to have a good time and makes sure that they are taken care of! I absolutely love the Grateful Dead ambiance! Thanks Rosebud! read more

Past by for a quick snack, ended up sharing an amazing Reuben sandwich with my lady. It was insanely thick piled high with sauerkraut and delecious pastrami. The rye bread was toasted to buttery pefection. YUM! The fries were excellent. Well seasoned and crisped perfectly. The service was fast and friendly. Good place to grab a bite to eat while on the road. Will eat there again while driving the 30. read more

Rosebud Cafe - Bomb Reuben sandwich. Thick, juicy, buttery, so good. - American Near Me - Scappoose, Oregon

This place is absolutely amazing, the quirkiest little dive bar I've ever been to. The food is delicious and the service is fun, the live music on Saturday's is fun too. Have been coming here frequently for over a year now. read more

This is a great deal for a great serving. Service is good and friendly. American menu with tasty burgers, sandwiches, and home made soups. This will be a regular stop for us. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. read more

The Rosebud is a wonderful spot. The live music is awesome! Karaoke night is super fun. The kitchen is pretty ok, I'll never understand why they are not twice as busy as Ichabods, which is mediocre at best, for weekend brunch hours. Cafe/diner options are fairly limited in Scappoose, so I really appreciate having this place. read more

This is THE BEST place in town to go for late night food (or anytime food - they serve breakfast now), hands down. I've been here several times and have never been disappointed. Live music on the weekends, good service, great vibes. I bring all of my out of town guests here to eat the food, listen to great music, and mingle with the locals. The decor leaves something to be desired, but hey, this is a small town cafe/bar, and it's MUCH better than what the owners prior had going on. Highly recommend. read more

The man behind the bar takes pride in his work, service, and the food coming out of the kitchen. I am a bit of a particular food person. He gave us the rundown on the pulled pork, homemade and cooked for above 10 hours! Coleslaw is mixed fresh for each order. (Great! Cause I can't stand a soggy slaw!) Homemade French fry sauce! I got the pulled pork sandwich, it was absolutely delicious even though it was a little too saucy for my taste ( but the flavor was bangin' -and also homemade), The pulled pork was a little too salty, but still great in texture and "cook" right on! The only real criticism is the buns didn't hold up... but I don't mind using a fork for a great tasting meal in a comfortable environment. The cook came out to speak with us as well as the server. I can tell they care a lot about the food they put out. read more

Service was amazing! Gentlemen working was friendly and talked and checked on us often! Food was amazing! Several amazing family/homemade items. They serve homemade honey mustard! Lasagna is moms recipe! Will definitely be back! Highly recommended to all! read more

Love this place. They alway have some good beer on tap. Their Burgers are the best. Fries not bad. Unlike The Varsity they give you all the fry sauce, ranch, blue cheese you want without charging. Oh and fries are endless if you can eat the pike that comes the first time. Good bands on the week end and the boss is usually there and he always remembers you. read more

Called ahead here to park overnight And buy some food for my family. My partner and I live in a rv/bus and needed a place to park. The owner over the phone said sure no problem, come inside and I'll show you where to park. Instead the owner assumed I was bringing a party bus full of people over. We never said the words bus, party, or group. The owner then became irate and belligerent towards my partner, screaming and yelling while throwing his arms in her face. It was completely inappropriate and unprofessional. Also the food was horrible, it was completely unedible. The customers and employees seemed nice. read more

What a fun time! This is the closest restaurant to Sauvie Island and we needed to get out for dinner so stopped in to see how it would be. Walked in and the local bar crowd got us involved in a bingo game before we could even order a drink. :-) So much fun! The bourbon burger is awesome and the Ruben is great and enormous. All in all a great little place to stop and have a drink and some pub grub with cool people. read more

First time in here. Fast service, friendly and the food is AMAZING! Bottomless fries. Will DEFINITELY be back read more

The staff here was very exceptional and friendly. The food sizes were generous and when asked for something extra, they were right on top of it. Menu items were mostly what you'd expect in a tavern setting, but were better than most. Nice little stop if traveling up Hwy 30 to the coast. read more

Pretty sure the food was made from old mashed up dog farts and horse cock. The staff seemed ready to kill themselves and were rude and half drunk. Good old scappoose read more

The food is excellent, most of the time. It has it's cycles between excellent and just ok. The sandwiches are usually very good while the salads and fries are variable. Sometimes the fries are very good, hot and crisp and other times they are just warm and limp covered in warm grease. Often the cooks and servers kids are running around and disrupting diners. As long as you get there during peak hours and not during off-peak hours. read more

Good food and good music. Excellent pool table! A nice place to hang out when in the area.

Definitely not the best burger in town. It tasted like a frozen Sysco patty with no seasoning. They really should change their sign out front. To even be considered for a great burger, it should be hand formed and seasoned. I also think that the good reviews on here are mostly put up by employees or friends. The BF said is Reuben was good though. Don't get me wrong, I want any new place here to be successful, but these folks have some work to do. read more

Great food everything tasted fresh. Fresh made fries, fresh mushrooms on my French dip. My fiance had the Rosebud burger egg and bacon were just right. The service was awesome. Gentleman was very attentive and made sure everything was just as we wanted. For sure coming back read more

They make you feel like you are part of the family. Great nachos and delicious burgers with huge portions. We'll be back again and again.

Good family atmosphere, the food was great! I recommend the home made lasagna. Deidre the manager is one of the nicest ladies I have ever met. Great place for our town I'm so happy with the owners. read more

Great burgers, BLTs and home made tortilla chips. Waitress was awesome. Definitely a place we'll return to. Just 15 minutes from Sauvie Island. read more

We have been meaning to try this place since it re-opened but just never got around to it until the other night. It is not the most appealing looking place and can be a bit difficult to get in and out of the place at certain times because of the traffic on Hwy. 30 but you can make it if you want to. Not sure you would want to. The place has a weird layout and you can tell that the bar is where they make their money. It is much larger than the restaurant area. The place seemed kind of dirty and dingy, not enough to make me leave but did not feel overly comfortable about it. The 2 ladies who waited on us were friendly and fairly attentive but the place could use a dress code. Of course the reason to go to a restaurant is for the food and thats what will keep us away in the future. I had a burger and my wife had a french dip neither was very good. The burger was way over cooked and actually was crunchy on one edge, the only flavor was burned meat. My wifes French dip was way over cooked meat with mostly gristle and fat in it, the Au Jus was too salty. I will say this about the food the fries were pretty good and came in a large portion. Normally I would wait until 2 or 3 times before I do a review but that isn't going to happen for this place. read more

Stopped in here last night after warren country inn was closed an hour before promised on a Friday night, and I was really happy they were! Food was great, service was quick and friendly, drinks were perfect, and they had live music! I was pleasantly surprised by this place and it was really reasonably priced. Plus they have a full menu till close. Only complaint is the chili wasn't great, but whatever. read more

Great little place for a beer, a pulled pork sandwich, and some good local live music in Scapoose, near Portland, OR! Great service by the incredible "Zucchini" read more

Love the food here! However there service is a 50/50. Went to the rosebud this evening, sat down no one said a word to us. We continued to wait for service for about 10 minutes, no one came to greet us or ask us if we wanted to waters. So we left, because the 4-5 people at the bar were more important than us and the other family waiting for service. read more

The menu is a bit limited but be sure to check the "specials" board on your way in. They have a wonderful selection of specials. Six of us had dinner there last night. The burgers (including the chicken burger) were great, the vegetable soup was excellent and the service was good. The new open floor plan looks great. We'll definitely be back. read more

The sign said "Best Burgers In Town"... Nothing even close to the best. The bun was soggy and not toasted. The meat had a strange taste. I ate 3 bites of my cheese burger and couldn't stomach anymore. The fries were soggy too. The waitress was friendly and nice...But The live music was horrendous. I won't ever go back. read more

Okay place...frindly people at the bar. like that they have billaird table and a couple of games.

Really great food, nice people and good atmosphere. We eat here at least weekly. Don is a great change over the last operator.
