Went to the Pub Course. Four beer taps with their own brews: Terminator, Hammerhead, Ruby and Pirate Latitude. McMenamins always has interesting and unique atmosphere. Had the Terminator and Hammerhead; my brother had the Latitude, which he enjoyed. Always worth visiting any of their establishments.

There are few places like Edgefield. This is a distillery, a brewery, there is a hotel, great international music guests, and golf. It is a great atmosphere with good beer.

Great place with tons to do - need to improve the food and service. Review/Tour of the distillery @http://thewhiskeyintelligencer.blogspot.com/2011/06/edgefield-distillery-tour_19.html

Like the forest grove grand lodge, this place has great ambiance, and it is fun to spend time in the outdorr areas in summer with a cold brew and a cigar

Unlike the last review, McMenamins Edgefield is my personal favorite McMenamins. My understanding of Edgefield is that it’s an old juvenile jail that was closed down and converted into a McMenamins location. The old housing unit is now a hotel (with shared bathrooms) and there are multiple other buildings, trails and gardens to explore while drinking your choice beverage. Their selection of beer is nothing to brag about, but it is unique and very well brewed. The one drawback is during the summer / spring months, it can get very busy with concerts (at it’s amphitheater) and weddings. I highly recommend making a trip to McMenamins Edgefield.

This is the worst of the McMenamins. The workers in the Power Station seem stoned. I have been there several times. The first was a first date with my future wife. At the fancy White Rabbit restaurant, they brought my wife’s meal and I waited another 45 minutes for mine. Went to a movie once where I had to go out THREE times to check on my order. It never came, and they lost all record of my transaction. I gave them my receipt and demanded a refund. On one Saturday, my group was told five times that it would be 20 minutes for a table. The last time we asked, they said they could seat us but the kitchen was backed up an hour. On my last visit, I stood in line in the pool hall for 20 minutes before leaving. There had been two concerts and three weddings and for some reason there was only ONE bartender, who was totally stressed out and couldn’t spare even two minutes to pour my friend and I a pint. There is simply no incentive to provide good service as all the servers pool tips. I will NEVER NEVER NEVER return to Edgefield again as long as I live. YOU CAN’T EAT OR DRINK AMBIANCE!

Overall, sort of a corporate environment and service feel throughout. Beer was run of the mill and food was basic pub fare, nothing spectacular. Okay place if you want that sort of thing. Wait is usually long with service being ok.

If you’ve ever been to a McMenamin’s establishment, you know what you’re going to get with the beers, though I’ll admit I’ve had a lifelong appreciation of Terminator Stout, which was one of my first beers. The service here is excellent, and there is the absolute glory of the pitch and putt course on the property. Even in the hail and rain, this is a ton of fun. Also gotta love the two booze shacks on the course. Great place to visit.

The grounds are amazing. I would never really come here just to drink beer, there is a distillery and winery on site too. But between the spa, hotel, and movie theater, what a wonderful place for a date.

The Edgefield location of McMenamins is fantastic - not so much for the beer, which is about the same as all the other spots including a brewpub, maybe a few of the beers can only be had here. But the place is fantastic for the 9 small bars scattered around the grounds, which include a 9 hole golfcourse and a vineyard, so the property also include a winery, a destillery, and a hotel, seemed like a great place to kick back. The food was decent pubgrub. I had 5 new beers in the brewpub.
