Go to Growler Guys instead. They have more taps, larger firepits, and friendlier staff. Gil’s has changed and become the opposite of generous. You are better served elsewhere. I’ve been a huge fan of Gil’s since it opened and I actively talked them up and sent them new customers daily. No longer. After paying $6 + tip for a pint a kombucha, I was thirsty for a second pint. After sampling two of their 24 rotating taps, I was told that I had exceeded my sample quota! Okay, this is new. Their samples are served in tiny 1oz glasses poured less than halfway full. I estimate they are 1/3 oz pours with beer being one of the highest margin products on the market. When I told the barkeep that this felt unwelcoming and that it irked me that I couldn’t have further samples (ever?), he said I was part of a problematic set of customers taking advantage of free beer and that he “didn’t have time for samples” — the bar was empty save for his girlfriend and 2 tables on the patio. No one else was inside. If there's a line, I get it, it's rude to sample multiple taps before choosing. But there was just the barkeep and me trying to order a beer. In that moment, I felt singled out, unappreciated, and betrayed by a place I loved. Then, he added, "I remember you came in earlier this week and ordered two samples before deciding which pint you wanted” as a way of attempting to shame me for not knowing my order in advance. In so doing, he only acknowledged that I was a regular, loyal customer. Then he continued as if to make his point, "You wouldn't go into another bar and do that, now would you?" Thinking he was just terrible at basic customer service, I contacted the owners privately via Facebook. The response was shockingly unapologetic, “we have to draw the line somewhere” referring to me asking for two samples prior to selecting my pint. No apologies and no attempt to regain my business left me feeling unheard and strongly regretting all the money I'd given them in business in the past. It is estimated that a 1/3 oz draught beer sample costs a bar $0.08 to $0.10 per tasting plus cost of washing the glass according to my google research. Conclusion: My business wasn't worth a dime to Gil's. I was in disbelief. A true customer-service bartender in an empty bar would have recognized that neither of their constantly rotating, and therefore unknown, taps pleased me and then recommended without prompting a third brew more to my palate. Half the fun of going to these places is discovering new and unique beers. Not about to order an entire pint of one that doesn’t suit my taste nor do I want to feel obliged to engage in an unpleasant conversation with the bartender about the poor service. Severely disappointed with the bartender and the response from management. Never again. Growler Guys, just up the street, will give you 5-6 samples per customer no questions asked. Not that I would ever go past 2-3, but I asked them as they’ll now be my regular tap house.

The service is always great, the libations and eats are always on point AND the staff hydrate out of cups of metal and not a plastic container!!!! After being in the in the industry most of my life, I’ve seen this only a handful of times and it’s awesome! Not enough businesses in general, but specifically restaurants don’t emphasize how much waste the staff goes through on any given day. I’m raisin’ the roof for SSBC!

Great food , excellent value, and the owners are awesome!!!

Great place. All is a good character and really takes care of people and is supportive of soldiers.

Service is amazing food is delicious. Plenty of food so most times you will have left overs and it has a very family friendly atmosphere

Quality crafted food. Pay upfront and leave when you're done. Quick and sooooo satisfying!

Great Japanese food, very affordable

Real good steak. An old school place but still very great. A bit on the pricy side but well worth it.

Good food, don't expect stellar customer service

Was in and out with no issues and pizza is great

#1 pizza place in Ashland! Recently, I taste-tested all the pizza joints in Ashland in preparation for a volunteer appreciation party. Great American Pizza was the best by far!

First time here, passed by during our travel. Great service and good portions of food. Many selections wished I could have tried them all.

I work relatively close to the Breadboard, and am always looking for a great lunch salad. The Breadboard is a little on the pricey side for a normal lunch, so it had always been pushed to the side in favor of something cheaper. Today my coworker and I had the Cobb salad and I was extremely impressed. The bacon was intensely flavorful, the chicken had a delicious marinade, and none of the Cobb ingredients were skimped on. The blue cheese dressing tasted homemade, and the veggies were fresh. They even threw in some bread, jam and butter. Even at a slightly higher price point for a lunch run, we will definitely be adding breadboard to the rotation.

Hands down best place to get pizza. Pizza by the slice or whole pie excellent daily specials. My favorite pizza anywhere.

I like the lunch taco plate - super cheap and enough to fill you up. The best part is it comes with chips and access to the salsa bar, their green salsa is delicious.

Food was ok. But they are charging a restaurant tax?

Great all around dining experience, fantastic food, great with allergies and wonderful wait staff, for those visiting Astoria it is a must go!

Great food with a comfortable atmosphere and a bit of history. The presentation and taste was outstanding, particularly considering the moderate cost. The halibut fish in the fish and chips was moist and flakey, and the portion was more than I could eat.

Awesome Sushi experience. Huge selection. The lunch bento box was enormous. Had to have help to finish it!! The salad with corn was scrumptious!!
