    This is definitely a cute bar. Kinda gives off cool hipster vibes. They serve coffee, food, and alcoholic drinks. I like their variety of unique cocktails. I had an espresso martini and it was suuuper delicious. The place is always busy with a variety of customers which makes for a really good time. Definitely recommend.

    Nice little bar in downtown Eugene with a good selection of drinks and a small bar style menu. I had the burger and it was solid. This is a good place to go to "pre game" if you are headed to the Mcdonald theater to see a show. Service is quick and there is an outdoor seating area for when the weather is good. Overall I would say this is a good place and I would visit again.

    The food and drinks are very good. The pretzel bits, sandwich,and espresso: amazing. The atmosphere is VERY chill. Plan for extra time as the staff takes theirs.

    Terrible experience. Owner was rude and unreasonable. I would pay 10 times the cost to go anywhere else. I will actively try to discourage people from spending money at this establishment.

    Good drinks and friendly staff! Sad shuffleboard. Many pucks are missing blue or red color and the amount of silicone sand for the table is minimal.

    The Barn Light is as cozy, welcoming, friendly, and yummy as ever. I moved away from Eugene but always like to visit here when I'm back in town. All the cocktails we had were fantastic and you can never go wrong with the shots & beer. Jason and Skye were both welcoming, wonderful, and fantastic with a drink!

    Barnlight is one of my favorite joints in town! They have some of the best cocktails in downtown Eugene by far! They are always coming up with new, delicious and creative recipes. Karaoke is always fun and the bartenders put on a great show!! Friendly staff and a warm atmosphere, this bar will have you feeling right at home.

    Super chill spot to play some shuffleboard and listen to music. Drinks are solid and staff is great. Caught a comedy show on a Sunday night, was a good time

    I have never felt more unwelcome or unwanted in an establishment in my entire life. First bartender I spoke to was very nice and I had a very routine experience as I do in any bar, love that, love her, no big deal. However the second time around I was helped by a male bartender, he came in hot, very abrasive, and if he was "trying to be funny" it didn't feel like it. He rudely asked me what I wanted, I miss-spoke and ordered the wrong kind of whiskey. My guess was I was already on edge from how I was greeted and that's what caused me to say the wrong thing. The bartender barely made a quarter turn towards the shelf and I said "I'm sorry, I meant to say X instead of X." the bar tender stopped what he was doing and continued to berate me "IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?!? ARE YOU SURE THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT?!?" I have NEVER felt like this in a bar in my ENTIRE life. I went on with my life and came back to the Barn Light in the evening hoping that he would either be gone or maybe his attitude had change. NOPE same hot headed guy giving me the exact same treatment. It got to the point that I was asking friends to order for me so I would not have to interact with this person again. From what I understand this male bartender might be an owner?? If that's true, I feel this person is in the wrong business if that's how they react under the pressure of being mildly busy. I am not normally the person to write a google review, but I felt so disrespected and that's what compelled me to take this issue a step further.

    The Barn Light is my all-time favorite coffee shop in all of Eugene. Both locations are great, but the downtown location on Willamette is my go-to. I've heard they are about to start roasting their own beans too, which will be amazing! This is also one of my go-to places for meeting with clients, and the building has a fiber line, so it's the fastest free wifi in town. There is much to love about this great local business.

  • 5/5 Mike S. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this friendly bar, they have really fun drinks with great ingredients. Then vibe is cozy and laid back, with shuffle board. A distinctive, variation from the "bar" muda section of downtown.

  • 5/5 Nathan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Very cool bar and atmosphere! I would recommend going during the day or early evening. Downtown Eugene is a little interesting after dark..

  • 4/5 Randy R. 2 years ago on Google
    I'm not sure what I expected. I've known about the place for a couple years never felt motivated to venture in. But I was driven to watch a friend do his stand-up comedy routine so I support their effort to support local artists. The staff was hospitable, the food comfortable, the beverages priced about average.

    Fantastic atmosphere, great drink menu and a local business willing to invest in it's community. Highly recommend.
