Great crowd for karaoke, the jocky Tyler was very fun. Also they have a great patio and a mister which was nice on such a hot day. I'll definitely be going back

Hidden gem right outside Milwaukee. It has a cozy chill interior and a sweet back porch hang with a covered fire pit and big tables to accommodate bigger groups. Laurie works most nights and goes above and beyond to make you feel at home here. One of my favorites in SE for sure!
Food is yummy, staff is very friendly and always makes you feel welcome!

Legit fantastic dive bar. Laurie and Chelsea are awesome and care a lot about their guests. The bad reviews probably are just whiny little babies. Been going here for years after softball games, and the improvements have been huge. Clearly they care a lot about people having a good experience.

I'll start off with that I'm here twice a week. Every week. I'm on two softball teams where we specifically play at Westmoreland so we can go to RF's afterwards. What used to be a fun tradition, has turned into basically a second home. The drinks are great, the food is absolutely delicious (you can't go wrong with any of it.) and the staff; Laurie and Chelsea make you feel incredibly welcomed and assured you're in a safe place. Laurie has grinded so hard over the last year to upscale RFs and man has it paid off! The late night menu improved dramatically, there's karaoke twice a week, and trivia on Sundays. This is genuinely turning into a top tier bar in PDX. I would recommend anyone visiting to come here. I guarantee Laurie will make you feel like you're family.Some of my favorite food:-The Chicken Sandwich w/ Mac Salad-Mots Sticks (ask if they're home made)-The sausage on the late night menu.There are some reviews on here that are genuinely untrue and downright cruel. (You know who you are.) It can feel chaotic at times when it's BUSY, and there's only one or two people working. If you take the 5 seconds to look though, you'll see Laurie and Chelsea running around making drinks, cooking, bussing tables, and chit chatting with patrons. Your extra 3 minutes it might take you to get your drink is not a big deal. I can assure you that none of those complaints are accurate and that Laurie and Chelsea are two of the best dang bartenders I've ever experienced. Keep your receipts on what I just said. You won't be disappointed.
Parking: Parking is limited-- but not horrible. It's SE Portland. Parking is hard ANYWHERE. People forget about the south parking lot of their building too.

I love this bar. Laurie and her staff are thoughtful, funny, fun, and take really great care of us. Laurie somehow remembers all of our usual drink orders and fave food orders. I look forward to hanging with my friends each week after our softball games at RFs!

The food is good and the portions are huge!! The bartender who worked on Friday night was lovely, I forgot her name, but she made us feel so welcome, and she was very relatable and personal with us! Strong drinks, too!
