I got a simple garden salad and order of fried Brussels sprouts that were REALLY good! The cashews and radishes are a nice combination to have in a Garden Salad.

We chose to sit on the self-service side, since we weren't there for the food. You basically find your seat and then walk up to setup your tab and order your beer. Pretty easy. The vibe of the place is very comfortable, we sat out back and it was a beautiful day. We had a nice time, would recommend.

Just overall MEH . Had fried pickles, couple burgers w fries and a chicken Caesar salad. Both the…read moreranch and Caesar dressing were house made (to my knowledge) but were lacking in flavor. Batter on the fried pickles was heavy/hard and stole the show from the pickle (maybe use a lighter tempura style batter so we know who the star is). The garlic parm fries were good, but shouldn't have been the highlight. For the price we paid, I really expected more from everything. Nothing was special. Not wowed by anything really. Kinda let down by fellow yelpers on this one. Would only go back if I was drinking beer to try them out... hopefully that's where they shine.

They offer an array of bites, including vegetarian dishes, which is what we were after. We each got the veggie burger ($19), which comes with fries or tots, or you can upgrade to their homemade soup or a salad for an additional $2. Kinda pricey but it was a lot of food, and we agreed afterward that we could have split the dish comfortably, since we aren't ravenous eaters. They make their own craft beer and cider, and I enjoyed a pint of their Bock beer with my meal. Fresh, crisp and smooth, especially on a toasty day. Our server was super friendly and efficient. Parking may be a little tricky but there are usually 2-hour free street parking spaces available nearby.

It's not just what you do, but how you do it…read more Hopvally makes great brews of different types, and they run a great tap room. I can't get their beer where I live anymore, so I picked up my brother in law and we took a long trip, the Springfield tap room was our first stop. I called ahead & talked with Randi, the general manager. When we arrived, they had my favorite Hopvalley IPA on tap as she promised. We were greeted with smiles and a handshake on our arrival. Just like the beer, the food was top quality. Made of fresh ingredients and came out quick and hot. The onion rings for our appetizer were some of the best I have ever had. The Alphadelic IPA on draft was excellent, well worth the long drive for our first round. Our dinners were well cooked and presented, me a cob salad and my brother a BLTA. He switched up to a gin & tonic (made perfectly), and I had a Cryostash for my second round, can't be beat. The service is the punch line, this is the how you do it part. Excellent all night. This was a Saturday evening, the tap room was packed. All the staff were working hard and moving fast. But the key was, they all had smiles on their faces. The took time to talk and listen to every customer, including us. This does not happen by accident, it happens by prioritizing creating a great customer experience, but ultimately comes from people truly caring about what they are doing and how they are doing their job. We had a great time the entire evening, could not have been better, but it was. They gave me a very gracious present for coming from a long distance. I mention this only to illustrate the caring that I am pointing to. We already had the best evening of our trip, and that last gesture comes from the heart. They did not need to do anything like that, and they did. It came from the general manager and all the staff with a hand signed card. This restores one's belief in simple kindness. If I was local, I would be a regular. These people no only put out great product and excellent service, but they genuinely care, and it shows in how they do their work. Thanks to Randi and all the staff for a great night, never to be forgotten.

But, they don't inform you about a hidden charge of sharing a plate. $1.50 charge for a split plate. Guessing that's the cost of one dish getting washed. I'd hate to ask for a new fork. Other than that surprise, the burger was excellent as were the fries. Great service from David J., and we talked football.

When I travel for beer, I usually stick to breweries because each has their own story and vibe…read more It's rare I seek out a beer bar, unless there is something special and thankfully this one fits that category. A Beer Club has been on recent lists of best beers bars in the country. From the outside it seems like just another bar in a commercial plaza, windows and bright lit beer signs in the windows. But inside it was quick to see why this place is special. To the left are fridges filled with amazing bottles and cans from mostly local breweries. The selections here are special ones, not what you can find from these breweries in a normal grocery store. There's even one door blacked out that's for members of the club, a curated selection of even more amazing things. The interior is bright and well lit, with the walls covered in bottles collected over the years. The bartender George was friendly and welcoming to my group; their tap list is also fantastic so we were able to pick and choose whatever we wanted in flight sizes. There was another employee that explained their beer selection and showed us a phone book sized binder filled with more selections! The special treat was the two gentlemen at the bar trying special bottles, who gave us the generous leftovers to enjoy and taste. I could see this place easily being a usual haunt if I lived nearby. If you're a beer fan in Eugene, this is a must-visit stop!

The menu looks like tiki drinks, but the Jungle Bird and Scorpion were absurdly bitter and tasted nothing like their namesakes. The host at the front seemed completely put off by our arrival. Our server was friendly but seemed new and made a few mistakes. Their burgers are large, but do not come with fries. Every burger should come with fries, especially at this high price point. For what it is, the space is pleasant, especially sitting by the window and watching the river. We did, however, see a fully developed spiderweb in a surprisingly conspicuous spot inside. The more McMenamins I visit, the less sold I am on their value proposition.
