5 Best Bars near Government Camp

“Great establishment in Government Camp! Food is delicious. Matt (owner) is a cool guy, and the staff is great. Dog friendly on the deck. For cocktails, I suggest the Mt. Hood Mule.“

“They brought back table service!! So much better now. I hated waiting in line and constantly paying for another drink or waiting in line for appetizer and then going back for drinks and then again for food. THANKS SO MUCH FOR BRINGING BACK TABLE SERVICE. Wish they would allow us to order from both menus. No fries at the bar... kinda weird. Have to walk next door and stand in another line to get fries. Would be cool if we could order from the other food at the restaurant next door without having to leave the bar. Especially if you do not have fries... and regular bar food at your bar. The Torta was amazing. Wish I could have had fries ;)“

“"The Rat" holds a special place in many of our hearts and memories. To be considered a "local" at The Rat back in the day meant an everything. It was the gathering place before we had technology. We threw horseshoes outside, played in pool tournaments, listened to Fingers and Chilly sing about Rainier beer while we hoisted our cans and sang along. We also got a "local" drink every day...I followed Dog's lead on that one and went with a Wild Turkey and a Hog's Back beer back. Local gogs were always let in to lay by the fire and there was always a water and food bowl. We knew the dogs by name and they knew us. It was fun, it was gritty, and I doubt it's even close to the same. If there was a time in my life to put on spin cycle, it would be those times spent in Govy with all those incredible and beautiful people. I have nothing but love for The Rat. I don't even want to go back because I'm afraid what I'd find. Sure, everything changes, but I'll keep my memories of what it was back then. Much love to all of you!“

“Stopped in for a pizza with the fam. Fun atmosphere with cool mosaics and historic furniture. Feels a bit like something from LOTR.

We stuck with a cheese pizza which we all enjoyed (kids included). Just let it cool for 10 minutes before trying to eat… pizza comes out hot and perfectly melty. With a family of 4, we ate about 3/4s of the pizza and took the rest to go.

Staff were cordial and server was busy but also friendly. Gotta love that refreshing glacier water!“

“It’s taken me too long to post this, but we (adult family) were in there for breakfast on Nov 6. Our waitress Uki was absolutely awesome!!! We don’t get out that way we are east coasters). Be sure to give her our kudos!!! We love Charlie’s.“
