20 Best Dive Bars near Oregon City

“They have a wonderful staff including the owners! 🩵💗“

“Good drinks, really sweet bartender, & the local, regulars are always very friendly and inviting! He played pool (they have 2 pool tables) & I played video poker (they have 6 machines). He won his game, and even though I lost to the poker machine, we had a great time.“

“Been coming here for 4 years now. I always get the chicken burger w/ fries, always tastes great!! Beer and service have also always been great! Been both in the daytime and at night, always a chill crowd of people, from younger 20's to older folk.“

“Best music bar in the city! Good vibes and character all over.“

“I am pissed that the bartender changed the music from the juke box. I wasted $5. Never heard a single because she listened to what she wanted. Third time this has happened. I am not coming back here and keeping my friends from going here after this.“

“Been going here since the doors opened. Still a home base for me even though I don't live in the neighborhood anymore.“

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

“More like Old Gilbert RAD Tavern“

“Bartender and charismatic host, Nicholas, delivered us some of the most scrumptious holiday cocktails to wet our whistles last night. He even went as far to make my compatriots and I some homemade and self-engineered jello shots and let me just say: They were mighty yummy. 😋 10/10“

“so far so good right next to the motel“

“This place is a hidden gem. It's very unassuming from the outside and once inside, the darkest cleanest dive bar. There's the dark side and the light side, both served food by Libbie's restaurant. Dont ask me how that all works but it does. The chicken cordon bleu sandwich was recommended to me and was delicious. They even have purse hooks under the bar top which if you're a woman, you know. I just wish they were open later then 8pm.
Will for sure be back!“

“I wanted to write a review because I’m moving away from Portland and the last year Sarah has been my day bartender. She celebrated everyone’s birthday through the year and on my last week living here on my birthday made me a card for regulars to sign and I was even Captain of the ship for a day at one point.
She always has my drink ready, she’s thoughtful and protective in all the ways you would want your local bartender to be. I will always make it a point to come here on her shifts in the future when I find myself in Portland during the day.
She’s introduced me to amazing people; considered me in conversation with others to help me out when I just shared a simple life problem.
She treats everyone here like family and that is what will make me come back and I thank her for the friends I have met here at the ship.
Ps. Food gets one star because I haven’t had the glizzys but they smell good.

Some ships sail the ocean and some ships sails the sea but the best ships are the friendships and may they always be.“

“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?!“

“It's a proper little dive. Nothing too crazy, cheap enough food, though definitely over salted. Got to to try the East Bay NA beer, which was really good. Morgan (if I remember correctly) was a chill bartender taking good care of her regulars. Outdoor smoking in front was nice, too. Will be back if I have a few hours to kill in the neighborhood again“

“If you’re coming here, do yourself a favor and find a spot at the bar with Reggie. She is hands-down one of the best bartenders around!

​Her drinks are absolutely flawless, and her energy is unmatched. She has an incredible ability to read the room and make everyone feel like a regular the second they sit down. Top-tier service and amazing skills“

“Great dive bar and good beer and great prices, plenty of space outside for smoking or hanging out with drinks, always have Karoke every night every day. I’m deaf, I used to go there when I dated an ex girlfriend of mine, but no longer together, but it’s a great bar through. It doesn’t have pool tables or darts at all, like it said it’s a dive bar with Karoke at nights :). Lot people do like it, and bartenders are awesome as well :)“

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

“Best hot toddy in town. Fact.“

“In my professional and personal opinion, one of the best unknown quintessential dives that PDX has to offer. Not to mention an ACTUAL stage which is more than rare these days! (the speakers are DOPE, just trust me my audiophile nerd types)

Amberly the bartender was amazing as per always. Great pours and even great-er conversation on the fly.

Looking forward to snagging a drink here again and finally seeing /participating in some prime karaoke as well!!“

“Always a fun time with no drama and friendly people to make laugh 😆“
