20 Best Bar & Grill in Salem

“Overall I had a great time with my family. You can do everything in this one place and it's not overly crowded.
We socialized, drink, ate and played games.
The only downfall is parking. Finding a parking space can be a little difficult but the service was great and I had an awesome time with my family.

“The customer service and food is awesome 😎“

“I would like to THANK the Owners, and Staff, of the Half Penny! You made accommodations for a dual family Birthday party for us today. The food was delicious, the staff took care of our needs, and the customer service was PHENOMENAL! You can tell that they really support not only their customers, but each other, as well. THANK YOU, again, for the great experience! I plan on enjoying their nightlife very soon. 😁“

“Staff was prompt and responsive. I ordered the Prime Rib Special. It came out remarkably fast. Medium rare as requested. Unfortunately the baked potato was over done and yet cool. The prime rib was lukewarm. The horseradish sauce was off- I can’t tell why but it had a peculiar flavor that should not have been there. Seasoning of the prime rib was on point and so was the zip sauce. I wasn’t feeling up to potential confrontation so when they asked how the food was I just said good. With prime rib it’s hard because if they warmed it then it might not have come back medium rare…also there was no steak knife but again I didn’t ask“

“Welcoming and friendly staff, great conversation and amazing service. The food was excellent with good portion sizes. There are pool tables and a jukebox, also plenty of social activities over the course of the week. Great atmosphere with varied options for seating, booths, high tables, the bar. Clean and inviting, 10/10 will go again.“

“F1 racing on the big screen, kricket on the other big screen. Heavy metal music, and blasting air conditioning. This place was exactly what we needed after some horrible camping.

Fried pickles were amazing! Crinkle sweet potato fries are basically a dessert.
Fast service, good iced tea, and the background humor from the local color was perfect.“

“Shelly is amazing!!!!! Best ever! Best mixologist in town“

“Good place w/good people. Pool takes center stage in this bar. You’ve got a high chance of running into a grand master pool player who’ll be willing to teach you.“

“As a displaced Southerner, I approach BBQ in the PNW with caution. Two bites into the pork belly and I was instantly a ten-year-old again eating the food my father and uncles worked for days to prepare. The Vault is what happens when Down Home Comfort Food meets haute cuisine - homemade, fresh, extremely generous portions of authentic, perfectly prepared fare. The BBQ is phenomenal and the sides are delicious as well. Corn was still snappy, the fries were hot even delivered, and the tacos are phenomenally flavorful without being loaded down with spice. Try the jalapeno poppers which are *obviously* hand made! The burgers are juicy and freshly-made to grilling perfection, and the Alabama white sauce will knock your socks off. The prices are ridiculously low, as I would happily pay twice the asking for the generous portions and extremely high quality of ingredients ... not to mention the obvious love, skill, and pride that go into the food. Bonus: no Styrofoam containers here, but reusable aluminum pans that just need a quick wash packed skillfully to avoid using too much container. And where else can you play cribbage while enjoying your food and superbly crafted cocktails?“

“I love that they are supporting local and organic food now! New food and cocktail menu are awesome!“

“Amazing place! Amazing food! Amazing decor! Amazing beer! Clean bathrooms!“
