This was my first meal in Portland and it did not disappoint! I was in search of a vegan and gluten free meal and found this thru my search! Walking up to it, I was a little skeptical and going inside was even more questionable because I don’t typically expect good food from a bar but holy crap! My vegan chicken sandwich on a gluten-free bun was fantastic! It was well flavored, and fresh and hot! Also gluten-free were the tator tots fried to perfection and crispy! I am so glad...read full review
Great vegan food and very reasonable prices. Always try to stop in when I’m in Portland.
Always with the French dip, meatball sub,
Broccoli bacon salad, and buffalo wings. Sublime.
