Fun ambiance and setting and great company
Food ok nothing special / It over 45 minutes to get our food this is totally unacceptable in the restaurant business . They were not even close to being 1/2 full .
Came here with the family while visiting Seattle and am so grateful we did. This is one of those places where you can’t go wrong ordering anything off the menu. The beers/cocktails were great, but the star of the show was the brussel sprout starter. We’d come back everyday for those if we could. Overall an incredible place for dinner and drinks. Atmosphere is very cozy with the dim lighting, pretty tavern design, and huge fireplace. Definitely would return!

McMenamins Tavern on the Square offers great-tasting food, with dishes like the cheeseburger and the Brussel Sprout appetizer receiving high praise. The outdoor patio is very large, has cover, and is dog friendly, making it a popular spot for gatherings. The restaurant features beautiful grounds and a large outdoor dining area, perfect for mild weather. On Saturday nights, live music adds to the lively atmosphere. The menu includes options like roasted Brussels, salmon pasta, and a delicious cobbler for dessert. Many diners share modest appetites and enjoy sharing multiple dishes, feeling happily full. The restaurant also serves a good selection of beers and cocktails with diverse flavors. While the food quality is consistently good to excellent, some diners have experienced slow service, with a wait of over an hour for their meals due to kitchen issues. However, servers are generally friendly and attentive. The menu pricing is on the higher side, with some dishes costing $5-6 more than expected. Despite these challenges, McMenamins Tavern on the Square is a favorite for family gatherings and a convenient escape for those coming from nearby cities. With a bit more attention to service and pricing, it could reach its full potential.
