Kennedy School


The Kennedy School, one of many roadside attractions for the McMenamins empire is a beautifully restored junior high in NE that harkens back to the days when they didn't worry so much about ceiling height and heating costs. It has beautiful gardens, a lovely courtyard, and is as all McMenamin joints incredibly comfortable to explore. One of us were first introduced here through a work retreat (read, indoctrination, in the friendliest of ways) and we came back while hungry and in the neighborhood after a swim at the Matt Dishman. We had tater tots, hot wings, shakes, and two happy kids. Note: there is also a beautiful ceramic outdoor soaking pool here that is open to the public for a $5 fee. We will let you know if it is worth the charge.
