As our great country expanded into the vast unknown of the densely forested Northwest, independent, strong men were needed to harvest the lumber for the new townships and communities being built throughout our growing country. These men were known as lumberjacks.
Their job was not an easy one. The work was dangerous, difficult and the living conditions were primitive, to say the least.
Lumberjacks lived an independent lifestyle that was treacherous. They were known for taking great pride in their craft, strength and masculinity. When they were not working they were playing rough games, telling tall tales and consuming large amounts of food to keep them going strong.
Lumberjacks needed large hearty meals to fill them up and keep them satisfied for hours at a time because of their strenuous work and the long 14 to 18 hour days.
With a keen knowledge of the lumberjack culture and a hearty love of food, Jeff Garrett, founder of Lumberjacks Restaurant, opened his first store in 2004. He wanted a place where individuals and families could have a meal that was delicious, hearty and filling, yet at a price that would not break the bank and so began the legacy of Lumberjacks Restaurant. In 2007, Jeff partnered with Scott Bailey to grow the Lumberjacks concept throughout the country and develop the family of Lumberjacks Restaurants we have today.
