American Food at the Grand Lodge Hotel
There are not a lot of veg options in Forest Grove, so the The Iron Grill at McMenamins Grand Lodge is one of the few places you can go to. There are a number of vegetarian options but only 3 vegan ones: the hummus plate (without feta cheese), tater tots, and salads (without cheese). They do have a veggie burger (Gardenburger) but it has cheese in it.
From their web site: "Memorable meals in a most unexpected setting... Open daily for lunch and dinner, the Grand Lodge's airy first-floor restaurant serves memorable meals in a most unexpected and enjoyable setting. Here flickering candlelight casts a flattering glow on intricate iron scrollwork and original artwork. Ancient-looking glass windows literally provide a view onto the past (indeed, they were found in one of the many basements of the McMenamins' Old West-styled Olympic Club Hotel & Theater)."

For vegetarians, this place is ok although it is kind of expensive. But for vegans, it's not too great since there are only 2 vegan options (if you exclude the salads). However, I was glad that they had something vegan at least and that the food tasted decent. My server was vegan too, which was nice since she could explain what was vegan and what wasn't. They have free wireless service, which is a plus. If you stay at the Grande Lodge or at the Best Western next door (which has a microwave and a fridge in the room), you might want to just walk over to Safeway, which is not too far, and get yourself cheaper vegan food.
