Clark & Lewie's Travelers Rest Saloon & Grill

My goodness I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to review- had THE BEST experience hosting my wedding’s welcome party at Clark and Lewie’s. The location and view and vibes are unmatched. We had a bunch of folks from out of town, and the western saloon vibes were a perfect introduction to our part of the world. The sternwheeler was parked at the doc. The full bar cocktails were top notch, the munchies tasty and heavy apps filling! We had SUCH a good pre party, a thunderstorm had just rolled through so the sky was STUNNING. The owner was great to work with, the rental price reasonable with minimum spends and kept things in budget. Folks were having so much fun my dad opened a new tab when our pre set tab ran out and we kept the party going until 10 or so. Having our welcome party here was a highlight of our weekend and we almost always stop in for a bite or a cocktail when we are in the area. Such a gem!

We are visiting in town and went here twice. First time, ate inside with a great view of the river and windsurfers. I had the bison burger, he had a pizza. 2nd time, we sat outside and enjoyed live music. He had pizza again, I had the coconut shrimp. Everything was so good, cocktails were great, both servers were so sweet. Gabriella served us outside, and she was so friendly and was so attentive. The music was really good, and it was fun to see what I think were local residents gathered to enjoy it.

Such wonderful service. Brandi went above and beyond. And beautiful sitting with river view.

Lovely menu! Has a little bit of everything, our family enjoyed the Jalapeño poppers appetizer, the beet salad (so refreshing!), the bison burger and the kids fish & chips. We also opted to get a flavored lemonade for the kiddo, while mom and dad had a Moscow mule and a margarita which were both equally delicious. For dessert dad and kiddo shared the baked cookie topped with ice cream.

The atmosphere is so cute, love the inside, but we went on a rather hot day and opted to sit out on the covered deck which has a wonderful view of the river. They also have outdoor seating in the grass as well as a stage where they have live music on Saturday nights.

Staff was very attentive and all around cheerful! Definitely will be coming back -- Shout out to our server Sammantha, she was amazing!

Food and service were good. There's a nice view of thr river.

Only had drinks, but the music outside was awesome!

We were excited to try them for the first time. We were quickly disappointed. We stood awkwardly at the entrance (in the way of the server) waiting to be seated on the deck. After the long wait we were escorted to the deck and handed menus. The area was hot and muggy. It was not inviting at all. After 30 minutes we left. We never were acknowledged. It was very disappointing. We won't be back!

Sam took care of us and the other people eating and she did an awesome job. Never felt like we were left needing anything. She was awesome.

Plus, the food and view were both stellar. Saw an osprey catch a fish and carry it off right in front of us.

The view on the back deck is amazing and I love the live music nights outside when it's nice out. But $16 for some chicken tenders that came out of a bag from the freezer is not great. I expected something hand breaded for that price. The food here has really gone downhill. The service is also always bad. The staff is nice, but we got sat and the host or whoever sat us didn't let the one serve know, so we waited about 15-20mins with no menus or water. Meanwhile, a staff member stood next to us sweeping. Maybe instead of sweeping you could help your server out?

First visit. Ordered 3-piece fish and chips ($20) and each piece was tiny, about the size of your index finger. Decent batter but overcooked to the point of almost burnt. The fries, however, needed more cooking and had no crispness, no soft pillowy interior. The other diner had a Reuben sandwich, ($17) that was about as basic and flavorless imaginable. Really a surprise that sauerkraut and thousand island dressing could be bland. Beer choices were solid. Waitstaff enjoyed singing along to the streaming music more than helping customers. Views all around were grand, looking across the river toward Oregon.

I think the only redeeming quality of this place is that it's on the river, so the views are beautiful if you sit outside, and I think they bank on that. If you sit inside, the local drunks at the bar are obnoxious and tables are so close together that it's difficult to walk by to use the restroom. When we were brought cups for water, they were obviously dirty.

The food wasn't good at all for the price they charge. $20 ($18 plus tax) for a plate of mac and cheese that was flavorless and gritty, like they didn't mix the roux properly. The fried cod in the fish and chips was soggy, and the coleslaw looked and tasted like it had been left out in the sun. Perhaps the other options are better, but we thought a couple of simple dishes would be the best bet.

Really nice, quiet place to visit with friends.. had fish and chips, small version, 2 pieces of breaded fish... each piece was no larger than 2"×2", no more than 2 bites per piece... when you added the French fries, and coleslaw I left the table hungry..

Wife had a nice sandwich and had food to carry out....

We had met friends.... no problem with sitting and catching up, both before and after lunch...

I'd go back, but avoid the fish and ,chips...

Lovely casual spot with tasty bloody Mary’s (basically a meal in a glass) and wonderful view of the river. Cozy setting on the porch. Nice service and delicious cuisine.
