The food was great. Service was great! We sat outside, right under the loud speakers. The speakers were too loud for us to hear each other and combine that with the loud traffic. Staff did turn the speakers off which was awesome. Had we sat indoors we would have had a perfect dinner with friends!

We went a bike ride through Afton and stopped off for breakfast. Our server Ava was excellent. The food was worth the stop. If you are ever in the area, this place is worth a visit!

Friends and I sat outside after hiking at Afton. I ordered the blueberry basil moscow mule and their burgers were amazing. Sweet potatoes fries came with a Marshmallow cream that I could have eaten with a spoon.

Had a great experience here sitting outside. Lots of shade and a large menu of sandwiches and flatbread/pizza. Plus salads. I had the chicken bacon ranch sandwich with fries. The fries were a little soggy and I would prefer a few more tap beer choices. The cheese curds are breaded and not my preferred style. Otherwise was great and downtown Afton is a cool place to visit.

Was riding by and has never been here before. The patio looked nice. We had a very friendly, attentive and polite server named Marin. She helped us navigate the nice variety on the menu, with some good suggestions We didn't have the need to go inside, that will have to be for our next visit.

It's May 22nd, I thought I'd stop for late lunch in Afton. I highly recommend lumberjack pub. I had the classic rice bowl with grilled chicken; it was awesome! In fact I ordered another one for take home.. The most importantly, the service is wonderful.

My family stopped by for lunch on a beautiful mid-November day. This was our first time at The Lumberyard and it was a very nice experience. The food was great and the service was pleasant. They have a nice bar area and lower seating section. They have multiple TV's and a lot of outdoor seating for the summer months as well as another section and bar that opens up during the warm months. If you're in the quaint downtown of Afton it's definitely worth a stop.
