33 Best Cafes in Eugene

“I ate breakfast (eggs, toast, hashbrowns, bacon, oatmeal, coffee) there 3 days straight while staying at the Graduate hotel and found the service to be good, the food to be good (though small oatmeal size), and the espresso was excellent. Plus it opens at 6 am every day which is critical for me, coming from the east coast and waking early. I highly recommend it!“

“Hideaway has great coffee and baked goods, along with both outdoor and indoor seating. I had their Tempeh sandwich the other day and it was wonderful.“

“This is a unique coffee house off the beaten path. They roast their own delicious coffee on their wood-fired roaster. Come in on a Saturday when families are there enjoying the games, arcade and art projects. Highly recommended.“

“Absolutely everything they make is delicious! So hard to find healthy options these days. They nailed it! Friendly owner and staff! A good place to reset the body and mind. Atmosphere is clean and laid back, very pleasant! Highly recommend! 💚“

“I LOVE Prime Time! I frequently come here and they know my order every time I go. They treat me very well -especially Kris. They have the most flavorful, organic coffee from a local coffee roaster company, Cafeto. 🙌❤️☕️ Makes me happy to support this coffee shop on River Road.“

“My friends and I have found our new go-to place! The cutest atmosphere, yummy, made-from-scratch treats, and delicious cocktails and bubbly! The owner is so warm and kind! Already have a date to go back!“

“An elderly lady was stranded after Ride Source left without her. Will and his son let her stay in the cafe long after closing while she waited to be picked up. They were very kind and considerate. It's good to know there are still good humans out there.“

“Their food was amazing! 👏“

“I’ve been going to this little Cafe for almost two years and Daisy is by far one of the best barista’s in town. Always does a perfect job on my coffee no matter my order. I’ve seen her completely swamped with guests and always manages to stay calm cool and collected! Great little coffee stop“

“I have been coming to SouthPine for years! I love the emphasis on creative, healthy, natural, locally sourced foods. My favorite coffee drink is the Dirty Hippie Chai — this is just one of Southpine’s many unique menu items. The owners of SouthPine are caring, compassionate and friendly. I highly recommend SouthPine!“

“We had an amazing dining experience at Seize The Cafe. The staff was so welcoming, genuine and friendly. The at home atmosphere was cozy and relaxed. The service was spot on. But the most wonderful thing about this gem of a restaurant, is the food. Clearly Chef Chad loves food. You can taste it in every bite. He is skilled in creating scrumptious flavors and unbeatable meals. Can't wait to go back! and don't hesitate to order pie and ice cream to round out your meal. Both homemade and absolutely out of this world.“

“This is the second time I’ve been to Acorn Cafe. It was equally as delicious today. Brought my daughter and we shared the biscuits & gravy and waffles. So much food and extremely delicious. We also ordered the lavender lemon soda and Hawaiian Haze mocktail and they were super tasty and refreshing. Acorn has a lovely ambiance and the service was friendly. They don’t accept tips for themselves but pay it forward instead to folks less fortunate. Well worth supporting! Looking forward to going back and trying everything.“

“Really great espresso drinks and I love the local vibe of the place. It’s the same groups of people in every day, and a very friendly bunch. We love the open spaces and lots of room to get together as a group.“

“Haven't written a review before, but I've been here quite a few times now and really like it. The coffee is great and the location is too! There's a neat little corner outside in the back for those who want a little more privacy and quiet also.“

“Great menu, appreciate the willingness to continue making one of the February specials I'm obsessed with (🍌 ☕️ 🥜 )“

“Loved the vibe and the warmth if the place. Felt welcoming and awesome drinks“

“Great coffee every time, workers are so sweet and happy!“

“If you’re looking for a Classy environment and a quality cup of Joe, this is your place.“

“Actually I do NOT recommend this place! I ordered the RBG sandwich, and it was one of the worst sandwiches I ever had. The bread was dry and the ingredients were skimpy and fell out of the bread. The chickpea spread was almost non-existent. I paid $8 but it was worth about $1.50. I do NOT recommend this sandwich or this place.“

“This building is a centerpiece of the campus, and going up inside has its own great views. Plenty of space to hang out inside, plus there is an outdoor balcony on the back side. Quiet spot to get away from the hustle and bustle of students moving from class to class.“

“Excellent food and service. Come by for coffee, a meet up, Breakfast, Lunch or dinner!“

“I love this little cafe. The atmosphere is extremely calm and pleasant, the staff is super friendly and they do not overcharge you like in other places. The cafe is very bright and it's beautifully furnished. Coffee and tea is very good.
Perfect place to work without distraction.“

“Kendall is well known for the sales and service departments. Little is known of a cafe tucked away between Kendall’s Honda and Acura dealerships, Wheels Cafe. Well I am here to tell you that Chris and his staff, are heads and shoulders above a lot of eateries here in Eugene. They prepare a daily special that tantalizes the taste buds and burgers that can extinguish the hungriest of appetites. You can tell that the food comes second only to the customer service from the staff. Everyone is prompt and courteous, ready to help with all your culinary desires. Kendall has a tag line, “Kendall the name means a great deal,” The Wheels Cafe and the staff exemplifies this motto. Remember, The Wheels Cafe is open to the public, not just to employees and the customers of the sales and service departments.“

“Love the Grab N Go store that is here. Also the fire N spice, Big Mouth Burrito, Common grounds (good smoothies and acäi bowls are really good). So many choices ! There are 5 places within or next to common grounds where you can grab a bite to eat“

“I come to this cafe multiple times a week, the food and coffee are always amazing and the staff are super nice! I would’ve given 5 stars but as a service dog handler we’ve ran into a lot of untrained pets/fake SD’s that have barked or lunged at my medical alert dog. Although the sign on the door says service animals only, the staff do not enforce this nor ask the two ADA legal questions to people with dogs.“

“Great service , great atmosphere , amazing customer service , enjoy spot to get some alcoholic beverages , and a great spot to do your local gambling , come check them out 8-close !!“

“I recently discovered they have gluten-free bread available for sandwiches, which was a nice surprise. When I went in today and inquired if they prepared the gf sandwich on the same surface as other bread, they said yes. However, they offered to prepare it directly on a plate to eliminate contamination. That was a lovely and welcome suggestion. Kudos for their quick thinking and friendly service! I'll be back!“

“I always go to Magpie when I have an essay or a test to study for. I have a summer class I am wrapping up for and went in last week. I love how much sunlight there is and I always get an iced latte with oat milk and usually a baked good. I got the biscuit with butter and jam this time and it was really good. The staff is also really friendly and the music is at a good volume. I really recommend it for a nice study spot.“

“Amazing turkey sandwich !!! The spread was amazing“

“Best coffee and an incredible environment ❤️“
