Drinks & Nightlife

There are many McMenamins restaurants in the area, but Rock Creek is our very favorite. Why? Because it's located out in the country and literally feels like you're having a party in a really cool fun barn. The bar is beautiful and the music after 8pm is always fun! And the food is good, tavern fare.
