Fellow travelers: Sven & I were in town to run the NW Animation Festival in Eugene! By which I mean: Sven was in town to run the Festival, and I was around to help. :) Because the High Street location is so close to the Bijou, it was literally a 3-minute walk, so it was a super easy location for us to fit in between the afternoon & evening animation blocks. I wish we had known about it sooner!
Favorite art: Nothing big, but lots of bizarre & beautiful details along the borders that make me happy. I mean, ears? REALLY? A hanger on a ringed planet? Oh, McMenamins!
Food: Because I completed the Eugene section, I could have picked up a basket of tots or fries. But a whole basket seemed like a lot of tots at that moment, so I may have to wait until the Best of the Northwest Animation Festival in September to redeem it!
Passport stamps: Eugene High Street Brewery & Cafe to complete the section!
Other items of note:
- Sadly, this location doesn't have milkshakes. :( WHHHYYYY?
- Even though I asked the server, I am still unclear what "pizza rolls" are.
- Cute patio, eh?
An oddity: look at the lower right corner. "No Checks Please/Thank you, Capt. Neon". I have never seen McMenamins use "Capt. Neon" as a sign-off on anything, as if it is a real character. Why this location?
