A Southern Oregon Food Stop
One of the joys of staying at Country Willows Inn is having so many wonderful Southern Oregon experiences within easy reach. Just about 15 minutes from Ashland, The Phoodery in Phoenix has quickly become a favorite gathering spot for locals and visitors alike. It is casual, lively, dog-friendly, family-friendly, and full of flavor, all set in one beautifully designed outdoor dining destination.
Located in downtown Phoenix, The Phoodery brings together a collection of unique food and drink vendors in one shared space. Instead of choosing one restaurant for the evening, guests can wander, browse menus, and create their own perfect meal. It is an especially nice option for couples, families, and groups with different tastes, because everyone can order what sounds best and still enjoy the meal together.
The setting is part of the fun. With spacious outdoor seating, rooftop views, games, live entertainment, and a relaxed community feel, The Phoodery is more than a quick stop for lunch or dinner. It is the kind of place where you can linger over a meal, try something new, enjoy a drink, and settle into the easy pace of Southern Oregon. Guests may also want to check The Phoodery’s Facebook page for their current calendar of events, including live music and other happenings.

Easy, Casual, and Close to Ashland
For Country Willows guests, The Phoodery makes a wonderful lunch stop, casual dinner outing, or relaxed place to meet up with friends.

It is also a great option after a day of exploring wineries, hiking trails, local shops, or the Rogue Valley’s many nearby attractions. Come hungry, bring your curiosity, and enjoy the chance to sample some of Southern Oregon’s creative food scene in one welcoming location. If you are traveling with a dog, The Phoodery’s dog-friendly atmosphere makes it an especially appealing stop for a casual meal out.
