I absolutely love the look and vibe this place has! It's quant and very cute with very tasty and affordable drinks. If I lived in the area, I would keep coming back here. The staff was super friendly as well. My friends and I got quite an assortment of drinks to try from here, but my favorites were the Strawberry Solstice (seasonal drink), Marionberry Lemon Drop and Lavender Skies. All very light and perfect for the summertime when I visited. read more

Came here yesterday with my boyfriend, service was friendly and vibes are very casual, minimal indoor seating but lots of outdoor seating. Felt kinda rushed to order, but obviously we were standing by the door looking at the menu. Had never been before, just got a cider and a marionberry lemon drop. My boyfriend likes ciders and they're nothing special, $7 for that and $10 for the marionberry lemon drop. I wasn't the biggest fan of the drink, kinda sour and sweet at the same time, ehh. They usually have food trucks outside to try, might be fun to bring a group to have drinks and try new foods. read more

Eugene may not be the biggest City in America but it does include some of the best and most amazing places to hang out. Thinking Tree is one of the finest among fine local places to relax, have a superior cocktail and connect. I truly love this intimate, quiet and super tasty distillery/lounge where I can enjoy a Moscow Mule, hand crafted gin & tonic or another of the remarkable top shelf cocktails. We make sure to always bring home a bottle or two of pre mixed cocktails. Cheers. read more

Open. Went to meet friends tonight for $5 cocktails and it was closed. Parking lot empty of food trucks and picnic tables and gate locked.

I definitely think this is a great spot to hit up with your friends for a social night, or to plan close up your favorites to bring home. The house Bloody Mary mix is perfectly heated and has a good amount of horseradish! The staff is friendly and the cocktails are beautiful! Nothing is ever too sweet. They have a small snack menu and occasionally have a food truck out front. They are also close to hop valley. Definitely recommend their products for gifts too! This place is Just smart, pretty, and well thought out! They also have a pup that hangs out there too. Very gentle and sweet :) read more

A wonderful stop on a warm summer night. Thinking tree always has new and interesting drink options. We tried out their summer menu this week and it did not disappoint. I had the lavender drink which was similar to a whiskey sour but with lavender. Very tasty and beautiful, love a drink with egg white. My partner had the tiki drink which came in a very small glass and really packed a punch flavor wise. Not what I expected, but pretty tasty. The inside decor is fun, but I love sitting outside here on a warm summer night. read more

Came here for the first time on a Friday evening for a date night. We made it in time for happy hour (3-6 each day) which includes some nice discounts on drinks, and, best of all, a free serving of rosemary chipotle cocktail nuts! I got a tasting flight and we chowed down on the nuts while we waited for our food order from Da Nang, one of the food carts on site. The gin was my favorite to sip straight...herb-y and smooth without being too medicinal. The mocktail menu is solid, too, my partner got a nonalcoholic beverage which he enjoyed. Our food from Da Nang came quickly and was delicious and fresh as always. (We each got the rice with chicken.) I also ordered a gin and tonic with paloma grapefruit gin with my dinner. Super tasty! I love a bitter drink and this one delivered. I also appreciated that they use reusable glassware AND metal straws to cut down on waste. There is some indoor seating, and a good amount of outdoor seating, which I still prefer at this point. It's semi-covered so it blocks the wind, and some heat lamps and fire pits to give it a cozy vibe. It was getting a little busier when we left, but most of the time we were there it was uncrowded so it felt mellow and intimate--perfect for a date. read more

I was having a day. I was consumed with that itch to get out of the house and be among the world. I was board with the default boxed wine hanging out in my fridge and was craving a delicious cocktail made by someone who knew what they were doing. So that is when I turned to the hubbs and said "Babe, we are going to Thinking Tree." Thinking Tree is a great local distillery located in the Whiteaker neighborhood. Due to the Pandemic they expanded their outdoor seating, covered and heated. They have a great menu of crafted cocktails made by spirits created right there in house. Hungry? No worries. Ojisan's Ramen is located in their parking lot. Ojisan's offers a contactless way of ordering and paying. All you do it have to scan their QR code located at each patio table. read more

OK not my first time reviewing this establishment but it's worth noting their rotating tasting room menu. With the addition of their 15 ingredient secret recipe bloody Mary's and hot drinks like Toddy's and a hot buttered rum it was definitely worth a share. Love the heated patio and great music. Also convenient that they have Ojisan's Ramen food cart right there on premise. read more

At the sugestion of the friendly folks at Heritage Distilling Company, I made my way to Thinking Tree Spirits Distillery to continue my Eugene brew-stilling adventure! Star 1: Love the small cozy space! There's a tree decked out with string lights, cattle skulls, bright pops of color throughout, and the coolest repurposed industrial bar-stools. Def a great space for a small intimate event! Star 2: The quality in everything is amazing! From the drinks, attire, charcuterie board, to the the rough leather clad menus - everything is skillfully crafted! Star 3: The bartender was fantastic! Even with the space packed to the hilt with patrons he was cool as a cucumber slinging drinks like a champ! Star 4: The libations were top-notch! They distill vodka, gin, and rum. I sipped on the Vesper - so good and so classy! Great attention to detail!! Def a place to check out if you're into craft spirits - especially gin!! Cheers! read more

I really like Thinking Tree. They're known for their gin but honestly their other spirits are very good as well. They provide a nice, alternative place to enjoy a higher-end, well-made cocktail in a very nice setting. They have limited indoor seating but have a great outdoor space as they've converted part of their parking lot. read more

Cute little environment with amazing service and drinks . Pour strong & very reasonable prices . We sat outside and enjoyed there outdoor heater . Definitely would recommend if you're looking for a good place to get a quick drink or two . read more

Spring was in the air yesterday and it made me want to quit work early and get out of the house! So I took a book and headed to Thinking Tree. That was the right choice. I grabbed two cocktails and hung out on their patio for about two hours, reading and sipping my beverages. Thinking Tree sells premixed cocktails, and I've been intrigued, so I used this opportunity to try a glass before committing to a whole bottle. The first one I got was the gin gimlet. Light and sweet with some lime tartness, it was delicious and refreshing. The second was the Bee's Knees, which I believe is a collaboration with Glory Bee honey. This was a sweet, mellow cocktail that I really enjoyed. Pours of their premixed cocktails were $5/glass. They also have a daily happy hour. It's listed on their menu and website as 3-6pm (although the bartend thought it started at 4pm--double-check if you go) with reduced prices for signature and seasonal cocktails and taster flights, as well as complementary house-made nuts with the first round of drinks. I'm surprised I haven't written a review for Thinking Tree already! I've come a few times before, enjoyed their cocktails, had dinner from the food trucks on their lot, and purchased a bottle of the Paloma grapefruit gin, which was lovely. This place is a great part of the community and I think I'm going to take more advantage of visiting now that the weather's getting nicer! read more

Wow this place is fantastic! The cocktails are delicious and they have a special offer where a percentage of the profits from a certain beverage gets donated to the Women's Space. This is my first time here since Covid and I'm so glad I popped in! I got the hot buttered rum and my sweetie got las manos de mujeres and they were very tasty. I will definitely be coming back again. read more

No longer coming here. Not locally owned anymore and new ownership (Heritage Distilling) has greatly depreciated the value of Thinking Tree Spirits. read more

Loveee the vibe, how the place looks on the inside is so homey and modern but comfy, everyone who works there seems pretty cool, and their drinks are INSANELY good and so pretty! Outdoor seating if you have a pup or it's a nice day out, food trucks with amazing food outside. What more could ya ask for! read more

Awesome spirits and staff! The cocktails were well crafted and delicious. The bar itself was unique and beautiful.

Great place! Granted, I haven't tried out their full cocktail abilities, since I just got a $5 Moscow Mule on tap (with homemade ginger beer!). But the very existence of a refreshing $5 cocktail is already good reason to go. A friend said the grapefruit gin is delicious. Cocktails on the menu look creative but not too frilly and overcomplicated. And there are two food trucks in the parking lot--BBQ and Ramen--plus tons of shaded outdoor seating. I anticipate I'll return someday soon. read more

Decided to visit the store front after making a purchase at the outdoor market. I thought their product was absolutely amazing. I was quite disappointed in the service I received upon patronizing their establishment. The bartender was extremely dismissive and proceeded to serve a customer that came in 10 minutes after we did before serving us. I would hate to think this was based off the difference in our ethnicities. However, that was the only difference between us and the patron served before us. We decided to leave rather than support an establishment with such biases. read more

This place went ABOVE and BEYOND for our community during the COVID-19 pandemic by making their own hand sanitizer and distributing it for free. Our entire town was undoubtedly impacted by this. THANK YOU! This is exactly the kind of local business Yelp exists to spotlight. read more

Simply amazing cocktails. Tried both the Orangecle and the Gimlet. Probably one of the best I've had in town. On par with The Rye. Recommend for a date night or anytime really, interior is small and intimate festering friendly staff and a view of the distillery. read more

We tried this spot out for a quick drink on our anniversary 4-7-2018 while deciding what to do for dinner. It's gorgeous inside, I love all the artwork and how there are so many styles and unique pieces. I felt like I was in a tasteful art history class again! The bartender was friendly, efficient, professional and overall fantastic. We each got one drink, mine was a rum cocktail with lime in it. It was good, not amazing but tasty. My husband got a strawberry basil cocktail and it was amazing! Best drink I've tried in years. The only issues is they have limited seating and while we were ordering all the tables filled up, but they do have a sign about it and it's totally fine. I'll definitely be back at some point! read more

Great gin: The Gifted. Buy it. I have not tried their other spirits. I have been drinking their gin from the time they first opened and that was all they had. Find it at any OLCC store or the Eugene Farmers' Market on Saturday mornings. read more

Cool place but the male bartender's attitude suuuucks. So dreary and pissed at the world. Definitely spoiled the fun. Cocktails were nice though. Ojisan food cart was just ok. Fusiony Japanese ramen and bowls. Kinda off but not terrible. Paper Plate BBQ is rarely open. We've been there 4 times and not yet found them open during their posted hours. read more

Overpriced and pretentious establishment. Drinks are not really better than many other bars in town, though you will pay a premium for them. If you are the type with lots of disposable income, this is your place. If you are a regular Joe, don't bother. Oh, and the gin was awful. Tasted like Pine-Sol and turpentine. read more

Great cocktails and friendly staff, we always leave with a bottle or two. Good food truck options as well.

Lovely gin. Good vintage sized cocktails at affordable prices. Friendly staff nice environment.

The Thinking Tree is an adorable distillery in the Whitaker district of Eugene. The interior sports a quaint steam-punk-esque theme with an amazing thinking tree as the center focal point of the tasting room. They do free tours of the operation. They also do tasting and delicious cocktails! When I went, they had a vodka, gin, and rum. I wasn't crazy about the rum, but I ended up buying bottles of the vodka and gin to take home to New Mexico! Very friendly staff and knowledgeable about the spirits they produce! read more
