Awesome place, we stop here everytime we pass through. The bar was built in 1905 in Boston and shipped through Portland, OR and horsed in by six horse wagon. Neat history, definitely wotlrth stopping in.

Surprising little find on our way through. Local bar meets great food with solid burgers, sandwiches, and pizzas. Family friendly but still a bar with poker in the rear. Service was friendly and lots of things to drink. Prices are as expected. Old bar atmosphere in a small town with lots of locals. Restrooms need more attention.

Great food and drink at the oldest bar in Oregon. Good family vibe, good local community energy as well. Friendly and professional staff and owners, well worth a visit if you’re in the area. Historic place with a great menu and decor that goes well back in time. Old and very clean also. With any luck one could sit with one of local ranchers and learn a lot about the area and the history of the saloon!

The bar is the oldest in Oregon, and it is for sale! Other than greasy onion rings, everything was delightful! Be sure and read the walls of the bathrooms. Had a shot of whiskey at noon because it's the oldest bar in Oregon. Did I mention it's for sale?

Oregon's oldest continuously operating saloon (142 years). Great food, burgers, sandos, pizza & great drinks. Pool table, fenced yard, great employees/owner. Popular w/local residents & cowboys. An official watering hole of E Clampus Vitus, and historically plaqued out front.
