Friendly atmosphere in the Whitaker neighborhood. Wheelchair accessible too. Had homemade Mac N cheese with Bacon! Highly recommend ? Also enjoyed cider on tap ?I will be back?
Drinks are overpriced. Bouncer is extremely persnickety. Had a bad experience there and I'm not sure I'll be going back. ? I feel really sad about it.
This bar was my home back when I lived in Eugene. However, the new manager, named Andrew, wouldn't let my 44 year old wife in because she had an expired ID. SHE'S 44!!! Didn't ever expect Sam Bonds to turn into the kind of place that allows powertrippers to be in control. Would have been nice to spend money there but won't.

Bingo was a blast! Definitely a comedy show with random prizes! Food was great. The Italian sub my boyfriend and I shared was delish!!
Overpriced cocktails. Around $12 for a drink. And staff is rude every time I go.They will not allow dogs at all OUTDOORS because "someone got bit years ago." One person has a bad dog so no one can have any? Come on. The worker basically belittled me for even asking about dogs.Eugene, especially the Whitaker, is very dog friendly, but Sam Bonds isn't.This place used to be great, but rude staff, being anti-dog and increasing prices has ruined it.
Seemed like a cool little place. I ordered a beer sat on the deck, guess there was a band getting ready to play I finished my beer and wanted just 1 more, went in and was told I can't sit on the deck and have another drink without paying a cover charge for the band. What a joke I was here before they even started and stated, I just want to order another and sit on the deck, I don't care about the band. Lame thought I found a cool place. Guess I won't be back.
This is a great little dive bar (my favorite kind). Service was solid, the crowd was fun, and the comedy show was far better than expected! If you're in the area, you should definitely check it out.
Bonds has a great atmosphere with amazing service and stellar drinks. They also provide you with the freedom to not have to be around people who are afraid of facing their fear of vaccines and needles. They're the best sandwich makers in town which goes great with the talented artists they bring in.
Sam Bonds is the coziest bar in Eugene. I especially love that they’re being extra safe with mask and vaccination requirements for entry. I feel safer there than any other bar in the city. Shout out to the lovely bartender, Bri, who always makes me a unique/delicious non alcoholic drink whenever I’m there.
