Kraftworks Taphouse in Salem, OR - Unique Cocktails and Delicious Eats

Love this place! You want to try something with a major kick? Order the Send it Back Mac. It's so flavourful and actually has some heat. You can definitely tell the owner & staff takes pride in this business.

Kraftworks has always been a favorite for my friends and I! We’ve been coming since 2021 and it’s only gotten better! The food is always amazing, the atmosphere is a vibe and welcoming and there is always such a huge drink selection! My best friend is vegan and absolutely loves their black bean burger! My favorite is the spicy Mac! I would definitely recommend!

Every time i go in the food is amazing, the bartender Kylie is my favorite who makes GREAT drinks. 10/10 recommend stopping here on your night out!

Great service great drink selection and had off menu vegan options - ask for the tindle "chicken" patty with bbq sauce

This review is to help fellow foosball players. This may be the only Tornado table in town. With a little care this table could easily be cleaned up, leveled a little, and made into a league table. Some of the balls could stand to be replaced, but there are at least 9 of them. The cost is $.50 a game, and the table is unlocked. The atmosphere of the bar is ok, about what you would expect, but there is plenty of room around the table for play on most nights I would think. I was surprised and happy to find this table as the website for the bar only mentioned that there was some other brand of table, not a Tornado table. Thanks to the owners for bringing Salem a good place to play.

If you're looking for a bar with a great atmosphere awesome staff good and/or extremely spicy food maybe karaoke on a Tuesday then you definitely need to check out kraft works. The food: I am a feen for spicy food and I hope you are too if you're trying anything with the "send it back sauce" smokey spicy and delicious they've got the hottest wings, Mac & cheese, and tacos I've ever enjoyed. Drinks: they have a bit of everything from porters to ciders and sours. I was shocked and extremely excited to have found Claim52s THICC. The staff are all great with wonderful customer service the bar tender Kat makes amazing cocktails and mocktails so anyone can enjoy being out. The cook Eric is great he occasionally does homemade desserts that are to die for. The owner is as good of a cook as he is a business owner. I was lucky enough to try his first Nashville hot chicken sandwich and it was to die for and done properly with a seasoned bath. Thick Juicy Crunchy with a heat that slowly builds up to a mouth watering hot oil dripping mouth orgasm. 10/10 every time.

This place is fantastic! Best Mac and cheese (absolute best, no joke, with bacon, breadcrumbs, and an amazing cheese stretch) and French dips in town. Their weekly deals are great! The bartenders are all so friendly and quick. Tuesdays are the best because they have taco Tuesday and karaoke! And they allow minors until 8

They were swamped for the 105.5 The Moon listener party. The staff was efficient, effective, and quite friendly in spite of the mayhem and volume of folks there. Great selection on tap. The Mac and cheese was wonderful! Great place- we'll be back!
