ColdFire began as a craft brewery located in Eugene, Oregon. We were founded on the principle of uncompromising quality, and we do not use methods or adjuncts intended to supplant volume over flavor. At ColdFire Public House, we apply the same dedication to uncompromising quality to our food, beverages, and, above all, hospitality. Our food is driven by the power of fire and fermentation to transform humble ingredients into memorable dishes that speak equally to beloved food traditions and modern culinary innovation. Our beverage program is centered around our award-winning beer, with wine, cocktails, and non-alcoholic drinks that meet the same level of quality and flavor that we strive for in our brewery.
Family-friendly hospitality is at the heart of everything we do – from the way that we welcome guests into our space to the way that we treat our fellow co-workers. The basis of great hospitality is respect, and we strive to extend great respect to the people and products we serve and work with, the space we occupy, and the community that we live and work in. Our goal is to make our restaurant a place for all kinds of people to enjoy, and we prioritize deliciousness, consistency, and goodness over trendiness, “coolness”, and pretension.
We work hard to cultivate a family-friendly atmosphere in our restaurant. Each member of our front of house team is expected to be passionate about our beer and food, knowledgeable about the products we serve, and motivated to make every customer visit a unique and memorable experience.
