Do not go to Free Loader!!! Literally the worst experience I've ever had at a dive bar!! I stopped by as I was passing through Salem for lunch Saturday. Bar tender was very unprofessional. Very disrespectful and hostile to customers like she hated her job and the bar had this bad odor. We ended up not staying long and got food elsewhere.

Bartenders make you cash out when they are getting off shift so you have to tip them. Only place that does this that I know of. Bad practice.

Didn't eat, stopped in to regroup, stretch, and refresh. Out of towner but the atmosphere was fun, friendly and not uninviting, the sounds of people enjoying themselves, chatting, and decompressing from their days made for a familiar environment in an unfamiliar place. Good job.

Great Drinks, Great Vibes!
Free-Loader is the spot if you're looking for a chill place to grab a drink and hang out. The staff is super friendly, the atmosphere is relaxed, and they’ve got some solid food options (seriously, try the Mac n' Cheese Bites).
Whatever you're here for— a beer, a game of darts, or just good company, it’s always a fun time. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area!

I’m sure this is a great place although I have never been there nor do I know where it is. Google algorithm has gone crazy and asks me to review places multiple times and also review places that happen to be on a street I happen to travel on. If you get a chance check this place out I don’t drink so I’m not sure if I’ll get there but I’m sure they would appreciate your business.

I go here for video poker. I almost always leave ahead for the amount I put in the machines

Would have been nice if the bartender ladies were not eating at the bar. Socializing with friends, etc... serviced sucked.
Fun bar go with friends as the locals all seem to know each other
