June and Matt are incredible!!! Low key if they are working top 5 under 20$ cocktails in Portland... Imagine if hogwarts had a light house in Wales and your here...

A group of 7 of us stopped in for food and drinks after the first bar we went to had their cook call out. Place seemed nice but was unable to order a drink after they didn't serve anything I normally drink so I just ordered a soda.... Pepsi had no flavor at all. We all ordered food just to have the server come over a few minutes later to let one of us know they were out of what he ordered.. He then tried to order something else and they were out of that as well so he ordered a burger... Food then took a long time to come out and there were only a few other patrons in the bar... Once all the food came out I asked where my fish and chips were that I ordered.. The server said I forgot to put it in, I'll do that now... I told her not to worry about it as the place was getting busy and I had seen other food orders get put in and wasn't willing to wait anymore. The rest of the group finished their food and we went elsewhere.

Atmosphere was perfect, the playlist was amazing while also being at a volume you could enjoy it while having an intimate conversation.

I recently hosted a little birthday get together at There Be Monsters and it was delightful! The owner, Don, communicated with me in advance about utilizing the back room, our party ended up just chilling in the spacious main area, but the back room is very cool. Great long-track shuffleboard table. The drinks were good, staff was friendly, and the happy hour food was a really solid value. Also nice to see a bar that still actually does pitchers. Highly recommend.

The.... Place..... quietly....Kills.... Stopped in before a show..(this place was the topic on the way home) The fish and chips were the best Ive had in a long time. Not like the pretreated, poured from a bag, fishlike, protein you might experience elsewhere. More like your aunt told you she could fry fish better than your favorite restaurant... then delivered beyond expectation. And made the best martini... My friends had the burgers and pasty with mules and wine, not a bad experience in the bunch.

The server we had was extremely rude and we did NOT have a great experience. When I asked for extra cutlery because I dropped my fork, she made it a big deal that she had better stuff to do rather than get people extra forks. I have never had a server this unprofessional. She also made fun of how "little" we were drinking and we should drink more and eat less. The server was borderline obnoxious. I would NOT recommend this place to anyone wanting to have a fun time with friends.Kid-friendliness: Not friendly for kids or families.

I've been here a few time with my partner since we live nearby - it's very cute inside and the food looks really yummy!We really enjoyed the first time we came, the gentleman bartending was wonderful - great service and very kind! The back patio was open too and it is really nice back there.Unfortunately we came back and had a female bartender who had terrible customer service. She didn't give us glasses for our canned beers and was irritated when we asked for one for the Guiness, then was annoyed when we asked to close the tab after having one drink. She had a rude attitude overall. There were a couple guys sitting together at the bar and she spent the entire time talking to them and ignored everyone else in the bar. Overall I loved this spot and will be back, but only when the female bartender is not working.

The bartender June is a bird expert who even has contributed a beautiful taxidermied bird that he ensured was sourced ethically and not hunted to the decor. We really enjoyed his hospitality as well as the lovely feel of this place. 5 stars.
