Library Taphouse & Kitchen

Either this place is permanently closed or they need to update their store hours on Google maps and then staff up appropriately. I’ve been by here 3 times when they’re supposed to be open according to store hours but they were closed.

So far we have visited twice - both times were slower and quiet, but I imagine it could be a very busy place when there are more university students around. The food is good and the service was always friendly.

So...BLT had less bacon than the Brussel spouts. 3 pieces total...bread was soggy from the letter and not being completely toasted. Would not recommend at all.Brussel spouts were good. lots of bacon and cooked well.Nachos...were cold, chips soggy and soaked in sauce. Parmigiano cheese...not melted...Would not recommend...unless desperate for a nacho...They we out of several beers we tried to order.Service was friendly but had to ask for silverware 3 times,Overall, wish we would have chosen a different place.

Maybe it was a mistake to not sit at the bar. The service was not so good. Maybe staff was shorthanded and stressed out. Iordered Pilsner but was given an IPA. Then our table was left alone- no water, no food, no extra beers. I didn't bother to complain. Just drank up, paid then left. Maybe next time...

Great beer selection, and the burgers were good. The atmosphere seemed surprisingly subdued for the weekend before PSU's fall term.

Casual bar, pretty good food, nothing amazing, but good food when you just want to eat before you drink. Or during...the one problem was the beer display screen kept changing too quickly before I could find a beer I wanted and the server said they were out of many things anyway (kegs changing and such).

Just a place to sit.We’ve been there with a group of 6.20% automatically added. ????Every burger was dry and overcooked. Only the vegetarian burger has been ok I was told. I’ll never go there again. Beer 9$ hmmm.Down the road 2 minutes away it has cost 6$ same amount and quality.Decently there are way better places to go to.

Nice place. Amazing selection of beers, fast and efficient service. Food was good, not great, but everything else made up for any shortcomings.

This was a complete bust. We sat down and were greeted promptly, but that’s about where the good news ends. We ordered two mai tais and a smothered spuds (tater tots).The tots came out in about 10 minutes, which was before the drinks. They were unfortunately the worst tots we’ve ever eaten; they were completely soggy and lacking any sort of texture, almost like they were under cooked hash browns.The drinks came out a few minutes later, and I don’t know what they were, but they definitely weren’t Mai tais. It was 99% pineapple juice (which shouldn’t even be in a Mai tai), and I’m not completely sure there was alcohol in there.We had the pleasure of paying $37 for this disappointment. I guess that’s what we deserve for going to the college bar. Hard pass.No shade to the nice guy who helped serve us. He was prompt and friendly.

Very expensive and no customer service. Just nachos (cheese and chips) without a protein starts at 17$. For large groups there's a gratuity, and even if you're the only table occupied in the place, they will only split the bill three ways. Understandable for the most part, but then when you ask for water, you don't receive it until after everyone gets their drinks (some drink orders were forgotten).Left before I could order food.

Nachos? Cold.Tomato soup? Wayy too salty.Three of the beers we asked for were out.Beer we were served was very watered down.Ordered a cider and was served a beer.Ordered a logger and was served an IPA.Tots? Incredible.Happy hour prices? Great, but not for the food we were served.Honestly, won’t go back again. Huge bummer.

Decent food, the fried pickles were tasty. Drinks were delicious but way too expensive for how watered down they were. Service was friendly but incompetent. Had to order three times after a long wait to realize our orders hadnt been taken at all and another long wait to realize they forgot half of it. Won't be returning, there's too much amazing food and drink in portland to be overcharged and underserved.

I’m really glad I came in here! I visited last year and I think what I got was a lemon drop? But it was just me and my friend there on a weekday.If I were still going to school, I think this would be nice to study at while having a drink
