The food was delicious and the service was great. Would definitely go again. Burgers were tasty and juicy and fries were perfect.

Our Story is Your Story


Lively Station is a family-built, family-run place of celebration, connection, and coming together. We opened our doors in December 2020—during a time when gathering with family, friends, and colleagues felt like both a memory and a hope for the future.

For more than a century, this site has been a place of hospitality for locals and visitors to the Willamette Valley. Built alongside the Livesly Station train depot, our space began as a general store and dancehall in the early 1900s—a true community gathering place.

Today, Lively Station continues that tradition with fresh, thoughtful, handmade meals and cocktails, served in a warm and distinctive setting by talented local creators.

We are honored to welcome you, to serve you, and to celebrate with you—bringing something lively and new to a property that has brought people together for generations.
