Consumate dive bar, but in a good way. Great place to play pool for the first time, and the live band karaoke was a blast to hear in the other room! I like that the pool tables are away from the main floor so that there's plenty of space.

This is a bar/restaurant. As such, its dark and feels like a hole in the wall. Only one bartender/waitress on shift but she was hustling and friendly and did great. Food was actually pretty damn good.

Older crowd. Perfect dive. This is one of my favorite neighborhood hideouts. They have live music often and regular bingo nights

This is food from the year 199X. It's absolutely amazing. From the prices, the atmosphere, the food, the patrons (and everything in between) - it's the best kept secret in Portland.

I ordered the classic burger med well...I ordered online, the online options had nothing in a section for veggies. For $11.00 I was handed a cheese burger....a classic burger comes with lettuce, tomato, and onion. I will not be returning...if I had wanted a cheese burger I would have went to McDonald'

Bartender with the red hair always has a nasty attitude and purposely ignores you, second time coming back dealing with the same issues.

Fun scene for Friday night dancing. Considering the location, surprising turnout.

One of Portland's old time, jumbo sized (dive bar) treasures at NE 42nd & Alberta. Affordable drink and food prices . . and that's saying a lot these days. A much better deal than most of the really overpriced, gentrified establishments all up and down NE Killingsworth & Alberta. Vintage locals bar & restaurant, def worth trying out . . especially for the breakfast food, which is available from open to close! They also have breakfast and lunch specials. The best time to visit for a chill, more relaxed customer/server vibe, is from 7:00am to about mid afternoon. The servers can seem a bit aloof until you get to know them better but it's mainly because they're just really busy and runnin' their tails off most of the time. Server Tiffany, is a real off the wall, hoot! lol ♡♡♡They feature karaoke, dj's or live music on the weekends.
