“ Highly recommended. We went here following our visit to the Christmas Market. A local police officer watching the event recommended it to us and he was right. Great food and attentive service. I had the sirloin and it was outstanding. The other members of our group loved their choices too. ”
“ Nice restaurant/bar right downtown Pendleton. Large roof top seating area with elevator access, too. ... ”
“ We love coming here and eating on the rooftop. Food is a little slower but obviously fresh so worth it. Just don’t go if you’re in a rush ”
“ Great Atmosphere! A elevated bar experience with great food and well prepared appetizers. Reaha our server was fantastic, and Kristi the Manager seemed eager to please. I think the cuisine is affordable and right on Par with the competition mere steps away. It will be a great addition to Pendleton. I can’t wait to sit roof top this summer. Up stairs bartender was great as well with quick efficient service before we were sat. **I see comments on the noise level in this establishment.... Have you been to Pendleton before? Every Restaurant in the Square is loud! People are their to have a joyous occasion maybe just celebrating they end of the week.... It may get loud! Eat at home where it is quiet.*** ”
“ I Always have a great experience at Raines on Exchange. Rooftop bar offers a incredible overview of Pendletons town square and the food never dissapoints at any Raines location for very affordable pricing. I recommend the burgers, wraps & steaks and don't skim over the appetizers. The staff are a ton of fun and provide 5-star service! ”
