26 Best Cocktail Bars in Eugene

“We love supporting local spots especially if they are as delicious as Cafe Med! Great delicious creative food every time! The bartender Keegan is friendly and attentive and it's great to see the owners working in their business ♥️“

“The food was amazing, perfectly cooked. But there were ants all over our table and where the flowers were, that was kind of gross. It was also really cold by the window. Otherwise everything was great. :)“

“Cocktails were very well made, service was great small bites were tasty.
We got there about 10 min till opening but there were people at tables already so when we tried to go in we were informed that the bar was technically closed still. We ended up waiting outside instead until 3. Seemed like we could have just remained at a table inside for that time but no big deal as they had a covered area with tables outside.“

“Attentive staff, good food, oregon lottery and even live music occasionally!!! Its upstairs so there's not a smoking patio or outdoor seating. Still, it's a good little neighborhood bar thats been there forever. Friendly regulars keep it interesting.“

“I didn't eat here, just stopped in for some drinks. Good drinks with rotating specials from 4 to midnight and $4 Patron tequila shots from 9:30 to 10:30. This place is very lively, busy, on weekends and would not be for everybody but I enjoyed it.“

“So yummy! I was sad to see Grit close—BUT this place is 💯 amazing. 🤩 My wife and I tried out three dishes (pork belly and kimchi and a rice dish) and a few cocktails (tiger bomb and a soju) and loved every bite. This is my new favorite restaurant in Eugene!“

“Seriously best pasta in Lane County. I will not go anywhere else for my birthday dinner! Service has always been amazing and the staff are so kind.“

“Always delicious uniquely crafted food and drinks and fantastic service.“

“My home away from home. I’ve worked in a lot of establishments as a host and as an employee at all levels. This makes me a little picky about strange things like, employee retention, a love and involvement from owners, a mutual respect among employees, excellence in service, attention to details. Last but not least- knowing their customers- how they like how what when and where is remembered and held somewhat sacred. Being a regular here is being part of a family as staff or clientele. As long as I have breath in my body and they will have me I will host a show here for my own sanity and well being. More places should pay attention to how these people do business on all ends. It’s a privilege to be a part of in any way. ❤️Bre“

“Amazing customer service! Thank you Kevin! Also you can’t go wrong with any thing on the menu!“

“They don’t have much of selection for food, but what they have is good. Also, if you need food, you can have it delivered right to the bar for you. I found Jameson's to be a very good atmosphere and a fun place to enjoy a few drinks and play some pool.“

“The housemade syrups and shrubs are delicious! Thoughtfully made drinks with great ingredients! Atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming. We found it by accident, but it has become our favorite place to meet!“

“Had a great birthday celebration for our salon. What a great lounge!“

“During the off-season, I’ve had a few instances where the opening hours didn’t quite match what was posted. I usually go to the tasting room on 5th Street, but this time I stopped by here after Sunday brunch.
Having tried several of this brand’s spirits before, I tend to choose my drink based on the mood and time of day. This time, I went with the rye bourbon whiskey.
The mahogany-style wooden furniture and decor give the place a classic vibe—it’s somewhere I find myself returning to. Definitely a spot I’d recommend.“

“Taro and his staff at Akira provide an atmosphere, quality of food, and elite service that is second to none. I have lived and eaten at high end Sushi houses throughout the West Coast and I can say without prejudice that Akira is the best of the best. I had a decent day going energetically and went in for a date night tonight, and through Taro's great and honest energy, amazing food, and supporting nature, I left happy and uplifted. Enjoy Akira and you will love the visit!“

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

“The food was not only beautifully presented, but equally as delicious! The interior gives you a cozy feeling and lovely decorated. I would definitely recommend this gem of a family restaurant. Also, probably the best sushi in town.“

“Hands down one of the favorite meals I've had in a very long time. Everything was cooked to perfection. The poutine is unforgettable, making my mouth water now just thinking about it. Loved the chocolate and spirit pairings were a great finish to the meal.“

“Great evening tonight as always and I had the pleasure of meeting the owner again and his wife…first class all the way…“

“Tacos on Taco tuesday were very good , gf had greek salad was amazing thank you : )“

“OMG....this place is amazing! If you want the real feel and offerings of a speakeasy, then this is your place. The ambience is AMAZING and the service is great! The drink menu and offerings are top-notch and we were even offered great snacks, of which my favorite were bacon wrapped dates! A+++!“

“So much fun! Super nice staff and they made AMAZING drinks!“

“Great food and cocktails!“

“I was facing 7 hours in planes and airports, with a very short layover in Denver, so I had to eat something. Unfortunately my stomach was very unstable. The waitress helped me decide on a cup of chicken noodle soup and a cup of hot mint tea. It tasted quite good and I made it all the way to Iowa with only mild discomfort , and not too hungry.“

“This is some of the best pizza I have had in years! Little Italy pizza. Staff was welcoming and friendly. Just an excellent experience! This is for the Oakway location!“

“Well, first I'll say the view from the patio is great, we were there on a nice day and you can see for quite a while. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We got there early, not long after they opened, for happy hour drinks and tacos. Drinks and food came out fairly quickly at that point. The margarita was a bit smaller than expected, and I don't think it was smaller for happy hour. And I understand they recently changed the house Tequila, it is no longer 100% agave tequila which is disappointing for the price. The tacos were great, but over five bucks each at happy hour price, I would think it should be a dollar or two less, but I know all food is expensive now. We ordered more drinks, and it had gotten more busy, and they took quite a while to come out...similar complaint as other reviews. What we were thinking would be some tacos in a couple drinks still ended up being about $80. So mixed feelings, scenery was great, people were great, just a bit spendy.“
