"it is my intent to tell all McMenamin relatives about the chain of McMenamin pubs/restaurants/inns/bed and breakfast inns/brewery's in the Portland, Oregon area and surroundings. I was in Portland this past weekend (I live in Northern California) and went to two: The Edgefield Inn and the Kennedy School. Both have fabulous restaurants, plus much, much more! If you go to that area I highly recommend it! The McMenamin brothers started out with a brewery in the '70's and have done very well! They have a web site too."
