“i have played pool out of this establishment for over 13 years. always great food and great service.“

“Came here with my dude on his birthday 🎉🎂 and jess the bartender was the coolest and gave him a shot for his b day and she was fast, funny and courteous to us. She was also loving our pokemon playing which means she's obviously a nerd like us we love her“

“My Girl n go there often for breakfast, my eggs, hash browns, Sausage patties and toast n pancakes are always perfect. Very clean n the staff is professionally fun.“

“The Reubens were delicious, but the highlight was definitely the chocolate chip cookie. It may be the best cookie I've ever had from a restaurant!“

“Great place, and bartender was amazing.“

“Things to dig about the Record Pub: - Music for every type of listener. -Bar to sit down for a drink and think about what records you need to add to your arsenal. -Staff to talk about your selections with. -Educated suggestions for additional beats based upon the ensuing conversation of music you’ll have with the bartender. -Finishing another beverage all happy and giddy about the new vinyl you’re taking home.“

“Toll, das auch! Oder? ？？“

“Rose City Book Pub hosted us for a show and they were amazing. The staff worked SO hard to take care of us, especially since they weren’t expecting a huge group of wizard rockers to descend upon their establishment. What a cool venue, and so welcoming. Thank you thank you thank you!“

“Always predictably good. Solid pub food, love the soups and salads too. It’s our neighborhood favorite. They haven’t raised their prices which means the value is amazing! .“

“Great people to work and drink with!“

“We love the Kennedy School. It is in a quintessential Portland neighborhood but still close to everything. The soaking pool is a highlight. The rooms are big and if in the schoolhouse you get the big chalkboard and the full school experience. The theater is fun and the French toast is amazing!!! Highly recommend,“

“The staff are really friendly. A very comfortable and relaxed environment.“

“The Big Bottom burger was very delicious 😋. The service was great and friendly.“

“There are a lot of hard working people keeping this a safe place to engage with others. Expect tea, coffee, drafts, and good company. 👍👍👍

The new porch is great to hang out on and the back porch is also nice and cozy. There is a library upstairs that has some great literature.“

“I enjoy going there when the bartender with the bangs and glasses is there because she's always very friendly and talks with me as I'm sitting at the bar by myself. She also makes sure to ask me if I'm enjoying myself and the food that I'm eating. However, the last time I was there, there was a male bartender with a mustache and he hardly said two words to me. Lame. I'm so tired of male bartenders that have the personality of a wet towel. If you don't enjoy being in the hospitality industry, find another career.
Also, for the 45 minutes I was there there was absolutely NO music playing. The whole vibe of the bar was completely different, and not for the better.
I really enjoy the food and I usually enjoy the service, but I think I'm going to make sure that I keep walking by on the days when the mustache man is there. Not trying to be sexist, but like I said... So many male bartenders in Portland have absolutely no hospitality or conversational skills. It gets old. I'm a blue collar worker who is also in the industry and I'd really like to have some genuine hospitality when I go out and spend my hard-earned money in local establishments. If I can maintain my hospitable nature after being in the industry for many years, surely YOU CAN TOO! Lol. It isn't that hard to be friendly, hospitable and welcoming. And if it is??? You're probably in the wrong industry.“

“Lucky Labrador is very friendly to board game players - the tables are large, the food and beverages are good, and there is plenty of room to play whatever your game.“

“You cannot say anything bad about please place, sorry. They are one of the best kept secrets in Portland.“

“Great atmosphere, a plethora of food options and delicious German beer, what else could you want!?! Been coming here for years and have nothing but positive things to say. Never had a bad interaction, they’re just that awesome here. Met the owners once, totally chill dudes. Overall 10 out of 10, this place just does it right. Plus Keith is a character, cracks me up every time and I just love it. Thank you Prost, y’all are an asset to the local community!!!“

“are house in the middle of the street ... HOME“

“The Muddy Rudder has (in my opinion) some of the best pizza that I've had in Portland. Their menu is pretty straightforward, good appetizers, pizzas, calzones, and some sandwiches and salads. Their beer list is ever-changing and always very good, there is a full bar so options for boozy drinks are available and kids can even get their own Shirley Temples, lime-aid, etc.
The staff is always friendly and the music is always great, whether it is played over the stereo or one of the many live acts they have performing on a number of nights each month.
When the weather is cold and the fireplace is burning there aren't many other places I'd rather be outside of my home.“

“The hotel hits all the right notes right away, mixing a serene, spotless environment with warm, considerate service that brings instant peace to guests even before they unpack. The lobby gives ample room, impeccable hygiene, and a soft welcome, as staff breeze through check-in with smooth expertise and true friendliness that melts away any road weariness. This top-tier care continues straight into the rooms, where dependable comfort, profound silence, and exacting maintenance craft a space made for deep, revitalizing sleep that's as assured as it gets. At pricing that's fair and fitting for the caliber, it earns honest acclaim and a real desire to come back, leaving guests with just that vibe as they go.“

“The Italian sub is the best I have ever eaten! Super friendly and great service. Thanks Theo for the friendly chat on your break. Great place Jeri and James!“

“This place is something special. First time I've ever felt like really spending time in a bar. I don't go to bars and I don't write reviews. The 13th Moon has me doing both. Anybody that had a negative experience, earned one.“

“dog friendly inside and out. great selection of beer and hot sauces. reasonably priced and a great staff and atmosphere“

“Chill atmosphere and tasty food and beer“

“Absolutely love Sellwood Saloon! This place is a gem in every way possible. The owners are fantastic - welcoming, friendly, and truly passionate about what they do. The bartenders are not only skilled at mixing drinks but also energetic and funny, making every visit a memorable experience. The atmosphere is simply fantastic - cozy and inviting, perfect for a night out with friends or a relaxing drink after work. If you're looking for a place with great vibes, top-notch service, and an all-around fantastic experience, Sellwood Saloon is the place to be. 5 stars all the way!“

“Our large group descended on Alberta Street Pub on an unassuming Thursday night and had a fantastic time grabbing some drinks, eating pub classics, and hanging out. Vibes were on point, with easy seating options and a huge bar, plus a spectacular bartender. She handled our large group with ease. A couple food options took awhile to arrive (veggie burger, etc) and my fried chicken wasn't the best I've ever had. But these are minor gripes for an awesome bar which was able to easily handle us at a moment's notice. 5/5 stars.“

“One of the best McMenamins experiences. Closest I've been to Old McMenamins when they opened years ago. Bartender exceeded expectations was well groomed great manners and very pleasant and approachable. Food was a better than expected. Possibly a model for corporate to use as far as customer service ambience and kitchen talent.“

“The poutine was just OK. They need to add pocked 9 ions and pickled jalapenos as standard and allow you to take them off if you don't like them. Also, the best poutine I have had has braised beef or pulled pork or some sort of meat to balance all the flavors.

The beer was very good. I tried their reserve stuff and their bourbon barrel aged beer and they were pretty good - all of them.“

“I just had a really delicious bowl of (Boston style) clam chowder at Three Mermaids Public House in Tigard. It was so creamy, and comforting; and the small bits of bacon gave it over-the-top goodness. Honestly, all the food at this welcoming pub is worth trying, but I hadn’t expected to enjoy a bowl of soup as much as I did this one!“

“Came down from Edmonton, Alberta for my friends wedding and had such a blast frequenting this place during my stay. People of Portland, I salute you. Great vibes all around the city, and especially this place! Ps. Sorry if I hit anyone with a pool ball or was too loud! Cheers ya'll..“

“Close to home, inexpensive drinks, all the tvs have football, there's keno, 2 pool tables (free on sundays), and slot machines. The other day they let me watch spongebob at 3pm. Who could wish for anything more?!“

“Good Vibes and staff is friendly.“

“Portland’s oldest Irish Pub! Plus the best Irish Coffee I’ve had on this side of the pond. 5 outa 5!“

“Great addition to the South Waterfront.“

“It has the small town....but worldly feel.
Katie and Sammy are the best sirens of the night. If we just had the back smoke rack...with plants (that the regulars would take care of) growing all through the brick brack.... again, JS.“

“The Dullahan is one of the most welcoming spots around. It has a cozy Irish pub feel, with warm wood interiors, a fireplace, an inviting bar, and great outdoor seating for nice weather. There’s also a fun downstairs area with games, shuffleboard, darts, and a TV.

They have a solid beer list, including Guinness on tap, plus a good selection of Scotch and Irish whiskey. The food covers the pub classics: Fish N’ Chips, Shepherd’s Pie, and Bangers & Mash - and the Bavarian Bangers and Brussels Sprouts are especially worth trying.

It’s a great place to meet friends or bring the family, whether you’re stopping in for a meal, drinks, or both.“

“Everything is great except for one of the male bartenders.“

“The ambiance is impeccable! The theater is one of the most cozy and beautiful I’ve ever been to. The bar has so many things to admire! My only negative notes are that the “Cajun tots” are quite salty, and the Lemon Raspberry seltzer is not good. The gyro however was delicious! Will definitely come back in the future.“

“What a great selection of beers!“

“amazindg anddwichs. Paul is an artisan!“

“The vibes are awesome, I go there and hang out with friends, and the bartenders are such sweet and amazing people. One time, the bartender (I forgot his name, i feel so bad he's the best) noticed I was having a headache and brought me water without even thinking about it. It's a really nice area, and they let your dogs in :)“

“Flip the sign over when you leave, not the table.“

“The parking was abysmal and essentially non-existent here when we went, particularly because it was right after a soccer game and the after crowd was MASSIVE & jubilant. But the atmosphere was quiet, food was good and our server was pleasant. I'll visit again.“

“Met my significant other here. Also, mystical magical space with nighttime happy hour & cozy spaces. Now sort of feels like a pre-show bar for Al's Den.

*Not* accessible due to building age and entrance to this space.“

“The most amazing staff! The beer choices are outstanding. Thank you from this Texas girl!“

“Cool pub! They had Boneyard IPA on tap. 🍻“

“Good beer selection, nice people, good feel… great location.“

“Great hangout spot to meet with friends and play pool“

“Best onion rings ever. Prime rib dip was exceptional and service was great.“
