McMenamins is an American chain of pubs, restaurants, hotels, breweries, and other entertainment venues in Oregon and Washington. McMenamins is notable for rehabilitating historic properties for many of their establishments, and several are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

In addition to pubs, restaurants, hotels, and breweries, McMenamins also operates movie theaters, music venues, spas, and golf courses, including the Gearhart Golf Links, the oldest golf course west of the Mississippi River. McMenamins is credited by some for helping with the popularization of tater tots as bar food, which were invented in Oregon and are offered at every McMenamin's location in either regular or 'Cajun' style.
