"Service impeccable, nourriture OK, c' est clairement le meilleur resto de la ville. Bienvenue dans un saloon typique."

"Un super petit bar americain pour prendre un repas le soir apres les randonnees. Pas beaucoup de touristes, de bon prix et de la bonne nourriture."

- Charlotte G.

"Great authentic American style restaurant with saloon vibe. Locals at the bar and lots of space with tables for eating. Fast and friendly service. The Mount Raineer burger and wrap were a great pick! Recommended for families with young kids."

- Rene A.

"We arrived at the restaurant around 5 PM on a Friday evening. At first, the atmosphere was relatively quiet and comfortable, but as expected, it got noticeably louder after 6 PM as more people started arriving. It was clear that the restaurant was quite popular, given how quickly it filled up. I ordered a cocktail called Red Silk Panties, and unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. It tasted almost exactly like cough syrup, and I regretted ordering it, I only managed to take about three sips before I gave up. Honestly, I would've been happier with just a Coke. On the bright side, the chicken wrap I ordered was absolutely delicious. I really enjoyed it, and the portion size was quite generous. I could only finish half of it, and the other half made a perfect breakfast the next day. Even after reheating it in the microwave, it still tasted great. We also shared the buffalo chicken nachos, which were topped with a surprisingly generous amount of olives, something my family really appreciated. The portion was large and satisfying. In total, the three of us spent around $120 and left feeling very full and content"

"Blue Spruce Saloon is the type of local watering hole that you love to see. It's intended for neighbors - but out of towners can still show up and have a nice time. Fried chicken was good, Rainier beers cold, and prices low."

- Jeremy Y.

"The Spruce Saloon & Diner is one of the best stops we experienced on our Oregon-Washington trip. You wouldn't think you would get good food and good service at a place with saloon in his name, but Blue Spruce Saloon Diner delivered on all. Our server was welcoming. She brought our drinks quickly and kept them full the whole time. They had a great fish tacos special, and everything else was pleasing to the the ducerse palates in our group. This was the only meal that we were compelled to take a picture of everyone's food. I don't know if I had Mt. St. Helen on the brain, but the taco salad sure looked like a caldera of ground beef oozing, plentifully out the side to its plateau on the plate. Within 30 minutes, the place filled up around 5 o'clock. We would definitely be back."

- Simon M.

"Very happy with this place! It was very busy on Labor Day flea market weekend and our waitress Saturday evening 8/30 was outstanding, 40% tip outstanding. Very good prime rib dip special. The size of shots and price is criminal is my only complaint."

- Voltage J.
