Went here for the first time for a drag show and had a thoroughly bad experience with the bartenders and staff. Bartenders are ¡extremely! slow & serve whom they please. I stood in line and got skipped 5+ times, along with another sweet gentleman next to me. After it kept happening, we decided to say something.. politely we explained we had gotten skipped many times and that several other guests that just walked up were served immediately. Both female bartenders set down everything they were doing to scold us: we can serve who we please, you don't tell us. Etc. At that point I walked away. Several other guests there that night had awful experiences as well. We stayed for the show only because friends were performing and left promptly after, otherwise, we would have left immediately. Another friend had enough and left in the middle of the show because of the bartenders. I had to send my boyfriend up to get my drinks for me. They were sweet to him and served him our drinks no problem! Hmm..... I've been in the server/bartender industry for 10 years so I understand it can be overwhelming and stressful and usually I relate to the server in most instances, but they were blatantly ignoring/rude to multiple guests. During an event... not a good way to treat your guests.. or make money. Also, the owner/manager? was right there, was aware of some of the issues, and never addressed them. Definitely won't be going back there. Save yourself the wasted time standing in line to never get served and an unwanted headache. Show less

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.

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. Show less

Fun atmosphere and a good place to get an adult drink BUT they really need to work on their employees. While they are friendly, professionalism is not happening. The lady is sitting in the counter where food and drinks are served, not paying attention to customers waiting to order, food is not good and they don't even know what's on their menu! When ordering something that's listed on the menu, nobody knew what it even was! Please clean up employees because I really enjoy coming here otherwise. :/ Show less

This was I kid you not the BEST espresso martini I’ve ever had. Doesn’t come in a martini glass -BUT- the ratio of espresso to alcohol is very good. It might be sweet to some people but I am a sweet tooth gorwlie so it really did hit the spot. Was quiet and no one was here, but I love when it’s quie... Read more

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, ... Read more

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.

I went to this bar tonight with friends and had the worst bar experience of my life. For context, I am a 24 year old law student and went to this bar with fellow law students and attorneys. After serving me three drinks, the male bartender in the beanie and short sleeve shirt took my ID for 5 minutes. I didn't think anything of it in the moment, but when he returned he told me that he was kicking me out for having a fake ID. Again, I am 24 years old, my ID is so real that it is in fact a federal Real ID, and when I offered to have them scan my ID to check or have the police come to verify it, the bartender denied my request and forced me to leave. Do not come here if you're looking for competent service. Do not come here if you have an Arizona Real ID. Show less
