Hearsay Restaurant, Lounge and Garden in downtown Ashland, Oregon

Hearsay specializes in new American cuisine and creative craft cocktails served in a warm, inviting and distinctive atmosphere, with outdoor garden dining available during warmer months.

Located in the lower level of Ashland’s famous “Old Pink Church”, Hearsayis an inviting downtown restaurant and lounge with beautiful outdoor garden patio dining and frequent live musical entertainment. We are focused on providing guests with an outstanding dining, social and entertainment experience.

Hearsay’s modern take on American cuisine and craft cocktails combines with the distinct atmosphere and music of the Jazz Age to create a space that is warm, inviting, and unlike any other in Southern Oregon. Situated just below the beloved Oregon Cabaret Theatre and a short three-minute walk from the world-renowned Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Hearsay is ideally located for a delicious dinner and cocktails before an evening at the theater.

“Hearsay is wonderful! Food is imaginative, and always well prepared. The restaurant itself is lovely and cozy, but there is nothing quite so magical as a summer evening in their garden.”
Deborah from Portland, Oregon

When you step through Hearsay’s doors, you’ll be treated to an experience you won’t soon forget. And, as our name implies, we hope you’ll tell your friends about us, too.

Abyssinia!

Super classy

Super classy! I’ve been here for pre-theater brunch and the food is wonderful. I have also visited just for drinks. Best dirty martini I have had in Ashland. The staff is my favorite. They always spend a little more time and add a little something extra! Love the decor and the patio is perfect!

The atmosphere was amazing

This beats any restaurant we have been to anywhere. The atmosphere was amazing, the staff was over the top…attentive, kind, wonderful service. The food was 2nd to none. We will definitely be back. Our server, Monya, was not only gorgeous on the outside but on the inside as well. We felt like we knew her for years! Thank you for a fabulous evening from start to finish!

The food was delightful

The food was delightful. I’m not vegan, vegetarian, or gluten free, but I would order the Seasonal Veggie Plate again. It was unparalleled for taste combinations and textures.

Found a winner

First time in Ashland – found a winner… Loved the decor, and perfect food! We had steelhead and chips and the steelhead with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Wonderful drinks complimented perfectly done dinners; a dessert special (hard cannoli shells filled with whipped chocolate and avocado dipped in chocolate and rolled in nuts) was CRAZY! Very attentive wait staff. I want to go back!

Nothing quite so magical as a summer evening in their garden

Hearsay is wonderful! Food is imaginative, and always well prepared. The restaurant itself is lovely and cozy, but there is nothing quite so magical as a summer evening in their garden.

Everyone in our party was happy

If you are in Ashland, OR, come here for a fantastic meal! Cocktails, starters, entrees, and ambiance. We had the clam linguini, roasted duck, and the hamburger. They dealt with our dietary needs and were on spot with the service. Everyone in our party was happy!
