Breakfast only
I would like to start this review by saying we love Cornucopia. We have eaten lunch and dinner here and at their other location Eugene and have always been well pleased with the service and food. This morning we went to their newly opened up breakfast and couldn't wait to try it. They weren't ready for the crowd they were getting. The service was amazingly slow and to make matters worse, I ordered the wrong thing (my fault) and I had to have them take it back and make me something else. I am diabetic and have to stay off the carbs so I had no choice. Again, my fault. When a mistake is made they usually put your order in "on the fly" and it goes ahead of the que. I heard them call it out but it didn't happen. It took a half hour or more to get my breakfast. My wife had finished hers so I took it to go. Unfortunately, I ordered no potatoes and it came on top of the biggest pile of little potato squares you've ever seen. They were going to comp the meal but I insisted on paying for the first meal that I mistakenly ordered (trying to be an honest guy). I tipped well because they know how it all went down and I don't want anyone to suffer financially. Now here I am at the computer trying to eat it and unfortunately it's just not that good. Very bland. You want a good burger then go here cause they are great but they need to work on their breakfast. personally I'm hoping they do get it right cause they are one of my favorite restaurants. Might be a while for me before I try breakfast again though.

Never again! Such a shame one person can ruin it all.
We have been here several times before. The food is good and the service used to be ok. However, we came on after the Ducks destroyed the Buffs and sat at the bar. Initially bartender was fine. He made a few jokes about beating the Buffs and served us in a timely manner. Out of nowhere, he turned down right nasty as more patrons came in. A man sat down next to us at the last seat and ordered drinks for him, his wife and another friend. The bartender seemed annoyed and asked where the other people were (acceptable in a college town - fine). The man pointed them out. Bartender snapped back - “they need to be seated.” He explained to bartender that they were waiting for a table. 30 min wait. Bartender makes drinks and basically throws them at man with his check. Man pulls out credit card and has in his hand. Man sees we are eating and tries to order an appetizer before closing out. Bartender gets extremely rude, grabs his cc and says,”no. You need to order that at your table.” His tone was extremely rude. Man then says, “my kids are starving. Can I order some tater tots or something?” Bartender now shoves his check back at the man and says “I told you no. You must order food only at your table.” (As we are all sitting there eating). Man leaves a 0’tip and closes out. Bartender picks up the receipt, looks at it and scoffs “of course” and the proceeds to tell all of the waitstaff. What did he expect? I’d have actually walked out and taken my family with me. There is NO place for that attitude towards paying customers. We paid and left as well to find another place to dine. I will never be back and do not recommend anyone else go. It’s shame because the food is good. But, so are plenty of other nearby restaurants with better attitudes!

Vurgers All The Way
I tried the Angie's Vurger as an alternative to a regular hamburger. I wasn't sure what I was going to end up with, as I've never had meat alternative before. Turns out, it was an amazing burger. The patty is black bean based, which made this all-vegi burger a delicious treat. I finished it in minutes and wished I had a second! I forgot to order it without pepperoncini, as I've never cared for it in the past. However, it made this burger all the better as a sweet addition. Never been so glad to mess up my order. My only complaint is that the sweet potato fries on the side could have used more seasoning.

Preconcert dinner in Eugene
We had dinner before a nearby concert Friday before 5. The philly cheesesteak sandwich was very good with plentiful tots. Wife had mac and cheese which she said was very good with nice side salad. Beer was half price during happy hour. Overall very good with added ambiance of two trains passing within a few feet of the place while we were there. Table was somewhat sticky (a pet peeve).

Meh
Mediocre food. Super slow service but staff was very friendly. Establishment could use a good cleaning. Not sure I would recommend this place or return.
