Great place to stay, or just for a bite and some great drinks!!! We stayed in the Modest mouse room!!! Road traffic was an issue at night, but they give ear plugs. Not related to McMenamins, but I would park in a garage, tha crows are horrible and our car was covered in droppings!!!

Dietary restrictions: Very good about making sure to meet any of those that may need to have stuff made to there specific needs like gluten free or vegan or any other types of food allergies they are very good at respectful taking your needs into consideration if needed

It's our favorite McMenamins for dinner and drinks. James makes the best cucumber margarita we've had anywhere.

So we peak into the window before going in to make sure he's working.
