The small city of John Day stands on the high desert, framed by surrounding mountain ridges, wild rivers and timberlands. These rough and open wild spaces attract those who can make their own good time with chosen company and few restraints. At one time, John Day and neighboring Canyon City were the population center for all of Oregon, during the gold mining days of the 1880’s. Today you’ll see RV campers, Overland explorers, fisherman and hunters making their journeys on Highway 26 to rediscover John Day.

FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY

Food

First-rate plates begin with prime ingredients. Drawing upon local produce and the finest local meats, hearty and healthy meals are quickly served to fuel hardworking local folks at start of their day, as well as everyone else.

INDIVIDUALLY HAND CRAFTED

Mixology

The untold secret of the brewery is the mixology program. Served large and ice cold, a full compliment of adult beverages holds its own against the beer menu. Just don’t tell the Brewmaster.

CRAFTED SWEETS

Desserts

As most humans under twelve years of age agree, sugar is a legit food category. For adults as well. Don’t not leave room for crafted sweets including baked goods and rich cakes.
