Renee’s Landing Restaurant and Bar has a historic value, given the fact that it is built on editor John Rennie’s house next to the University of Oregon. In business since 1981, the place is popular among locals as well as tourists. Visitors can enjoy breakfast, lunch, or dinner over typical American fare and drinks. It is a regular hangout for the University sports enthusiasts who come and enjoy the games on the large screen televisions over its specialty beers on tap. One can also pick memorabilia like hooded t-shirts, sweatshirts, patches and baby bibs while at Rennie's
