Jackalope Lounge

I enjoy the bartender who doubles as Hostess and Waitress. She knew many of the costumers by name. Food was good and Smoked Meets are what they may be best at. I hear that prime rib is worth coming her for. I was there for a Sunday breakfast and enjoyed the special. So ask what they have on special and ask for what you like. They ma be able to accommodate your desires.

I didn't have any food but I saw other people's food and it looked so good. It was a very comfortable and welcoming experience and the staff was wonderful. Always a fan.

I went to the Jackalope Lounge before the Portugal the Man concert last Friday to pre-game with co-workers before the show. I ordered the jackalope burger and waited hanging with friends in the meantime. My friend, who ordered her food much later than I did, got her food - and I was still waiting, so I went to check on the burger. I was assured it was on the way and apologies that they only had one cook. I went back upstairs and sat back down, and another friend spoke to them about it when she came inside from smoking a while later. The manager came upstairs to apologize and give my money back. He told me the runner had accidentally taken my food to another table (which is probably just as much my fault for moving all about while I was there) and refunded me for the food. He said my burger would be out in just a couple of minutes. I turned around to gather change for the pool table for a game of pool, and the next time I glanced back at the table, my burger was there! Forget the pool, I've got a burger to eat!! The burger was outstanding and worth the wait. The service I received was phenomenal, and I will return! I highly recommend checking this place out. Great vibes, good food and drinks, fantastic service!

Great little neighborhood dive bar. The food is actually fantastic. And the people are all friendly with an alternative vibe.

It was a c-c-cold November afternoon back in 2015. I was on my way back home to Seattle from sunny California.
And wouldn't ya know, I was pulled over and wouldn't ya know another thing, I was arrested. Reason? If I told ya, I'd have to you know...
As I was his out of town guest, Officer R. E. Tard was kind enough to put me up for a couple leisurely nights in the very popular, luxurious Lane County Cottages, I think it was called.
That was my intro to Eugene, Oregon.
I checked out a couple days later and wouldn't ya know, I was on foot and had no clue where to wait for my ride up to Seattle. So I walked a bit and stumbled upon this nice little lounge that caught my eye. The Jackalope Lounge. Yes gurrl, It was close enough to Beer Thirty for me.
Omg, I was waiting for hours on into the night. Taking it slow but feeling no pain. Thank God for Visa and a bartender who was cool as could be. He understood my situation and took excellent care of me until I finally departed at about 10-11 p.m.
Yes, I had to come back down to go to court for the following 8 months before... (That damn gavel)
Yep, 5 @ CCCF and back here to Eugene. It's Feb. 2024 and I've been in my place here ever since. But...
wouldn't ya know, I am moving back home to Seattle here in a couple months. Although I made some great friends and great memories here, I'll be happy to put it all behind me. Except the friends of course. They will always be with me. Wheither it be in my face or in my heart. Thanks Eugene!

Edited Nov 19th. Went twice this week, $1.50 tacos on Tuesday, and a proper meal later that week! Both were amazing. Love the food and atmosphere. Come here!!

Holy cow. We got the Sunday special, $5 Bloody Mary. The first one my husband has EVER liked. Also pictured is the appetizer sampler and beef sliders (it actually came with 4 lol). This place is amazing. I can't believe they have only been reopened for a week!!

Edited April 23rd, 2022. Always a food visit, it was parents weekend and really busy. Staff is top notch!! 😁

Club sandwich was excellent!

It's kinda like a hole in the wall but I work next door at OSF and I come here for an after work dinner sometimes. Great bartenders and amazing food.

Awesome bar right in front of the train station. Great staff, great beers on tap. Upstairs has darts and a pool table as well. But the best part of all is the food. Has to be some of the best bar food in all of Eugene in my opinion. Try the steak tips you won't regret it!! Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area or need to kill some time before tour train.

I love this place! Came to sit down outside to read and have a drink one evening. Eugene in general is a fun place to people watch, and everyone there is so friendly:) compared to Portland, Eugene is like freakin Whoville! When my husband came to meet me there, we had nachos :) they were pretty good ! It's bar food lol

The BLTA with side salad was a perfect as the service and attude.
The bartender curated music was, hands down, the best set I've heard in Eugene - up tempo and deep featuring some amazing musicians.

Nice little bar directly across from the train station!! If your waiting for the train or have a layover, an out of towner or local. This is a nice little hole in the wall to hang out!! Its a 2 story bar with good food and drinks!! Play pool or video poker or even darts!! I was there on a Friday night so it was pretty busy. The bar tender was pretty nice and my Margarita on the rocks was delicious and perfectly made. Be aware that if u decide to park your car in the daytime before 6:00 pm without paying for parking you stand a good chance of getting a parking ticket!! Just so u know!! I love that they have restrooms both upstairs and downstairs!! I have been here a few times it's small and cozy!! I read some other reviews and experiences but mine was good!! I've read other folks reviews and complaints. To each his own!! I personally didn't have a negative incident!! I had a good time So it's a thumbs up for me!!

Great bar food, friendly bartenders, very cozy atmosphere.

Vibe of a 'dive bar', but it's not. Great service and atmosphere, but knocked a point off on the food this time as I have eaten here a couple time before and it's always been, 'muy bueno', however this time my burger was a tad rubbery. The Frisco had fresh lettuce, tomato and Alvarado with a fresh bun, but the burger...perhaps overdone....or frozen? I'll be back to try again, just make sure to ask for medium rare...

Dive bar with great food, fun location and a good pour. When in town I will definitely visit. The taco salad was big, yummy and full of flavor.

Weary from my connector bus to the Eugene Amtrak station, I scan the neighboring businesses for signs of life; high volume of locals usually means a reputable place has stood the trials of time, and won out. I spotted the Jackalope Lounge across the narrow street from Union Station, noticed the voluminous traffic of hodgepodge locals and travelers alike, and deduced the mythical creature of N.A. lore lending its name to this enticing lounge earned my curiosity and parched tongue.

I enter and am greeted by Regan: a vibrant, bubbly woman clad in grapefruit colored coveralls and sporting perhaps the most charming smile West of the Mississippi. She tuned in me to the SouthWest Turkey sandwich on a cheddar jalapeno focaccia bread freshly delivered daily from The Bread Stop (family-owned masters of the bread in business for only three decades), and she mentioned tasty beverages to pair with this delicacy. The potato salad was homemade and tasty, though I prefer dill pickle over sweet relish.

It was fantastic. I recommend the Freim lager. 5.8%ABV if you're looking for a crisp lager with a hint of honey and wildflower, or the hearty Cumulus-- a 6.8%ABV fruitiful beverage that goes down sweet, but will grab you by your short hairs, and take you for a spin.

I ate, drank, and made my ancestors proud. Most importantly, I staggered onto the train, didn't miss my trip, and slept soundly on my way to Portland.

This place is so good, I stopped there on my way home. Same thing minus the beer. I'll haveta bring Regan a conductor's hat to match her outfit. The nostalgia experienced in what was once a brothel for railroad workers, is ever present; the unique crowd gives one a small taste of the vibrancy that is Eugene.

Great food friendly staff quick service lotto games on both lower and upper floors pool, darts, pinball upstairs. Ask what the beer of the day is always a good deal on one of their many fine microbrews.

Holy smokes, this place had the best energy of any bar I've been in in several years. Bartenders were amazing, owners were nice enough. :-) Will definitely be back.

Very fun and interesting place to hang out and have some drinks. I love that upstairs has pool, darts, and video poker with ample seating. The bartenders are excellent and the drinks well made.

My friend and I were visiting and popped in for a quick bite, their chicken tacos are SO fire. Sommer and Raegan were awesome bartenders. They entertained us when they didn’t have to and were very personable. They clearly have each others backs which creates a safe and fun environment. 10/10 would recommend!
