McMenamins Cedar Hills Pub

My first time trying McMenamins and it did not disappoint! Their regular hamburger (no cheese) was delicious, juicy, and packed with flavor. Their Cajun tater tots were to die for oh my god the Cajun spice on the tots made them perfect. The tater tots were so good I came back the next day and ordered their regular tater tots to go. I decided on regular tots because my weak taste buds did think that the Cajun tots had a spicy kick to it. However, their regular tots were really plain and I needed to add my own spice to them at home. I wish I had gotten the Cajun tots when I went back a second time. The Cajun tots are the way to go! Although the food was good, I wish the menu had a bit more options for entrees and main dishes. The space was pleasantly quiet and relaxing with cozy dim lighting. The service was quick, welcoming, and attentive.

Oh Mcmenamins. You sadden me. This was the location that hadn't let me down yet. YET. Until yesterday. We were trying to have a bit of a celebration. But three of the six beers I chose for my flight were out and the vegan mushroom sandwich wasn't available (which is the best thing I've EVER had at a Mcmenamins.) Our server seemed frazzled but we were pretty chill. That said it did take an awfully long time for EVERYTHING. Drinks and food. I still love the atmosphere there but the food disappointed me and so did the lack of tap options. Bummer.

I'm a HUGE fan of McMenamins. I have stayed at four of their hotels, several times, enjoyed their outdoor music, their movie theaters, and their unique breweries and pubs. So I was really excited when my friend offered to take me to lunch at McMenamins Cedar Hills restaurant in Beaverton. Sadly, the entire experience and meal left us disappointed. Here's how our experience went: It was a beautiful day, so we opted to sit on the patio.When we first walked in, our pretty hostess greeted us with a stoic expression, no smile, no hello, no welcome, just 'how many?'But our waitress was very friendly with a big smile, so we thought 'great!'We ordered the Brewer's salad with raspberry vinaigrette , with blue cheese, hazelnuts, marinated red onions. truffle fries, a bbq sandwich topped with coleslaw, two beers. The beers were, unfortunately, the only saving grace. The salad was lackluster and just okay. The truffle fries very sad and disappointing. Usually, they should have flavor, and at least should look fresh, maybe have some garlic and parsley for color and flavoring. These looked like they sprinkled truffle salt on them as a last minute thought, and the fries looked and felt like they had been sitting out for a long time waiting to be served. OH! And the ketchup they brought out in little ramekins, tasted lumpy and vinegary, like they had married the ketchup bottles too many times and then left them out. My Red Eye bbq brisket sandwich, which I was really looking forward to eating, was also not great. It was like being excited about a first date, only to learn that the other person lied on their online bio. whoever wrote the menu is a very creative writer, (thinly sliced smoked beef brisket, Red Eye bbq sauce, buttermilk coleslaw, and dark star mayo on a toasted bun)... what I got was, a bun, which should have at least been toasted, looked, felt, and tasted like it had come out of a cellophane wrapper from the supermarket. The brisket inside was dry and chewy, the mayo, meh, the buttermilk coleslaw, not so much. When we explained to the waitress (again very nice) about the truffle fries and ketchup and the sandwich (we forgave the bland salad), she said they've been doing it this way for two years she'd been working there. No offer to take anything off the bill, no apologies. And instead of running our credit card and bringing it back in the sleeve, we thought it was strange to bring the check in a sleeve where we placed the credit card to bring wrung up and brought back, she laid a machine on the table for us to do. Kind of missing the entire point of putting the bill in the folder. Very dissatisfied. No quality control, no finesse, no care, no love. We will not be back. I won't dismiss McMenamins entirely, after this experience, but they do need a restaurant makeover, or Gordon Ramsey to wake them up out of their complacency. He would ask them, 'Have you just given up?'

Three stars for this workday lunch. Honestly, the food was decent, I'd probably say average. The wait staff was fantastic (thank you Devhan!). But honestly the thing that dropped this to 2 stars was the price. Our average for the lunch entrees was $28 per person... without alcohol. That's high any way I slice it, and I don't know that I would recommend for what you get.Still good vibes though, you can always count on McMenimans for that!

Absolutely love the atmosphere of this location. Not too busy when I go. Great attentive crew also!

Do yourself a favor and walk across the parking lot from this location to the bowling alley next to it. The alley has good drinks and delicious food but more importantly attentive and fast service. I kept looking for something that would make me want to go back (just one thing at least) to this mcmenamins location but simply couldn't find it. The lack of communication and extremely slow service informed me to never visit again.

On a good day they make an amazing pizza. Especially fond of the outdoor patio and raging fire. Good selection of beer and friendly servers.

Arrived here on a Tuesday evening, the main side of the restaurant was a bit filled but the other side of the restaurant was quite empty. Very poor service, waitress didn't come around often and took over 10 minutes for our beers to come out after ordering. We even had to walk to the other side of the restaurant to pay our check since our waiters both disappeared for a long time. The beer selection is solid, the food is wayyy overpriced for the quality. Definitely seen McMenamins go downhill in service and quality, which is sad to see. Many other places in the area that has similar drink selections with better food options and prices.

You can always count on McMenamins for a good night out, good food and good service! We especially like this location because we can walk to Salt & Straw afterwards to get some ice cream!The family fav are the tater tots with Cajun spices!

Food is good, but service can be slower than expected eveen with slower volume. Mid week, and late afternoon was not as might be expected
