Sunriver Brewing Co. - Oakway Pub — Restaurant in Eugene

I was excited about outdoor seating on a sunny day, parking was easy to find as well as the location. Walking up I noticed an LGBTQ + BLM sticker on the window which is always a plus, and that they had a fire pit along with stand alone outdoor heaters. I sat myself at a table and noticed a digital QR code for a menu, I'm really not a fan! Just then a woman came out to greet me, Molly offered me a paper menu and was super nice! I ordered a veggie burger although I was torn between a couple of options. Vegan and Vegetarian items are offered here. We all know veggie burgers can be sub par, but I was interested in the "mustard aioli." While waiting the wind picked up and Molly happily agreed to move me indoors, food came rather quick, wasn't too busy but it was lunch hour and I was IMPRESSED! The veggie burger patty itself had perfect texture, the mustard aioli exceeded my expectations giving the burger an egg salad taste. I was also pleased the burger didn't come out on a traditional bun, I love when the chef gets creative, I would honestly say this is the BEST pub style veggie burger in town! The portions were very generous, EVERYTHING was perfectly seasoned, well presented and the fries were so good, SCREW the...

We really wanted to like this place but everything just felt like it missed the mark of excellence. Service was slow but we were enjoying our visit so that wasn't a huge deal. The tables were so close together that the people next to us commented on our conversation even though our voices weren't particularly loud. We would have liked outside seating, which looks lovely but it was in the full late afternoon August sun. Our order consisted of: a Paloma cocktail, elote dip and chips, and a Cubano sandwich with fries and salad. It was fine but again, felt like it fell short of the experience we were hoping for. The dip could have used more spice or heat. The fries were mostly small pieces. The sandwich was fairly cooled off by the time it got to the table. The side salad was actually my favorite part of the dinner. The bleu cheese vinaigrette was very tangy and the pickled onions added a nice flavor. Our total was just under $50 with the tip. Given the number of rave reviews, maybe we just happened in on...

!!!The Cubano is ridiculous!!!

Awesome place! First off I wasn't sure what I wanted to drink and I don't like really dank beers and they recommended a lighter tasting beer for me and I tried it and it wasn't really my thing, but I was still going to drink it and not say anything but then the bartender cane up and asked me so I was honest and said I didn't like it and he talked to me and then brought a few samples of some other beers he thought I might like and I found a really smooth easy to drink beer called Fuzztail. It has a sweet taste at first but you still know it's a beer. I really like it.

The Cubano is the best damn Cubano I've ever tasted beside the one i ate in Miami. Phenomenal. It's not the biggest sandwich, but I will be coming here to get it again atleast once a week until they either change how they make it or they close down. For real, it doesn't make sense how...
