It's a seat yourself place, and I urge you not to be discouraged if it takes an extra second for the staff to reach you at first. Be patient, and if you sit in the back, you can watch the fantastic cook prepare all the yummy food. We had 2 Chuckwagon Benedicts and shared a blueberry pancake (because it was that huge . The music playing set the perfect vibe, and we made a strong connection with the waitress when Chappell Roan started playing. It was so much fun and such a delicious meal. Dani, if you're reading this, you were the best!! I hope we can come back soon and sing Hot To Go together again :

This bar made me wish I was staying in Pendleton longer than one night. We were weary travelers passing through the night. Salvation was found at the Rainbow Cafe. The drinks were flowing, and the food warmed our souls. Sure, the cowboy vs Irish identity was weird at first, but take some time to look around and admire the fascinating decor and history surrounding you. One of the owners served us and he was quite the baller. 10/10 would recommend you stop in for at least a drink if you're traveling through pendleton. I shall be back for you Rainbow Cafe, eventually.

Paper cups and plates, plastic ware and serve yourself water and coffee. How about waiting over an hour for some limited food choices. Nothing like some over easy scrambled eggs, over cooked ham and over margarined toast.

The Nike Jordan Golf cleats were a fun touch) Bar was clean and the food was fresh, wellpriced and tasted amazing. Definitely a stop for the trailer that needs a break from the road. I understand they stay openmuch later than other places in town.
