About Thompson Brewery & Public House

In 1905, when the South Salem Hills were planted in orchards, a splendid house was built along the market road to Eugene as a dwelling for Civil War vet Franklin Thompson. In 1989, McMenamins Thompson Brewery & Public House was the first brewery in Salem to be established post-Prohibition.
 
Is it any surprise that the interior echoes with the laughter of an old friend? Nothing, it seems, hangs heavy in the air in this comfortable, old building. There's always a welcoming easiness in the air here. The deck at the Thompson is a perfect place to enjoy a meal and a handcrafted pint with a friend.

Thompson allows pets at the outdoor yard seating.
