Editorial Review for McMenamins Edgefield – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
In 1990, the McMenamin brothers renovated this 38-acre estate--and locals and travelers have been flocking to it since. Built in 1911 as the Multnomah County Poor Farm, and later a retirement home, Edgefield is now on the National Register of Historic Places. Some employees claim it's haunted. Ask around, and you'll hear stories about cats, people and moving objects haunting the different buildings.
The Draw
The farm is now a resort with a hotel, hostel, two restaurants, several small bars, brewery, winery, tasting room, distillery, golf course and movie theater. There are gardens throughout the property and porches to rock away a warm summer day. The Power Station Pub offers a variety of tasty burgers and sandwiches, while the Black Rabbit is more upscale, featuring regional dishes and American favorites; it's also a popular brunch destination. McMenamins' beer, wine and spirits are available throughout the property.

I've always loved Edgefield for the beautiful grounds and amazing deals on wine tasting and now that I live close to it I visit it at least once a month. My husband and I will often trot over to have dinner at the Power House then take a walk up the the golf course bar and then back down to the wine tasting area... it's a great place to sit and visit with friends or listen to live music outside of the Little Red Shed. It's also a great place to stay- except on the weekends if you want a quiet night. As I read the reviews I"m annoyed with the over and over again "and there's no tv in your room!" For me, I go to McMenamins because it's inexpensive, I can usually find privacy, and I can GET AWAY from the phone and tv! I don't want a tv in my room when I'm on vacation- I'd rather go out and experience the hotel I'm staying at our the city I'm in!
Pros: Beer Selection, Quaint and Relaxing Atmosphere, Great Deals, Beautiful Grounds, Lots to walk around and see
Cons: McMenamin's well known average service, loud on weekends

I've been to several McMenamins throughout the Portland area. Typically I love their service, atmosphere and food; however, despite three visits, I remain unimpressed with the service at McMenamin's Edgefield. Most recently, my husband and I paid a visit to Lucky Staehly's Pool Hall on the Edgefield property. It took nearly a half hour for us to be noticed by a waitress (actually, we had to flag her down, she had checked on several tables around us, but failed to stop by our table). When we did finally get her attention, she had an attitude that made us seem like we were the biggest inconvenience in her day. She took our order with a snotty attitude and we had to wait another 45 minutes to actually get our food. The service we got on our previous visit to Lucky Staehly's Pool Hall was average, but not stunning. On a prior visit to the Black Rabbit Restaurant, we waited nearly 15 minutes before a staff member even saw that we were waiting to get a table...as were several other people. We waited quite a while for our food, which wasn't that tasty (not typical McMenamins quality) and then that was the last that we saw of our waiter until he brought the check. My husband and I are both restaurant owners ourselves, and this type of service is completely unacceptable.
Pros: Beautiful property, fun atmosphere
Cons: Horrible service!!
