Squirrel's Tavern

The iconic Squirrel's Tavern, a local mainstay since 1974, cheekily calls itself "a learning center in downtown Corvallis." A down-home dive bar great with a surprisingly robust selection of beer and wine, an alternative food menu that included poutine and deviled eggs, and a lively atmosphere across two stories. The wood-paneled walls, plentiful seating, and a colorful mix of posters and artwork covering the walls made Squirrel’s feel less like a dive bar than a friend’s kitschy living room.
