“Great assortment of beers and ciders on tap. Rotating food carts outside offers a variety of dining options. Inside the pizza is always a good option. The staff here is great! Always welcoming and cheerful. We love going to their live music events. It is such a nice addition to this side of town. Make sure to check it out if you are up north.“

“I love this theater. I've been going here for a very long time and seen a lot of good movies. The food here is excellent but if you ask for butter on the popcorn they put a lot and it made my stomach hurt so only ask for a little butter. The quesadillas are amazing as well. The seating is decent but sometimes the heads of people in front of you get in the way a little bit.“

“2nd Edit. I picked up the new Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo and it's a banger. Thank you so much!Edit: Below was my original post and this one you are reading now is my current new post.The Half Penny got ahold of me the next day after reading my review and wanted to correct my food experience.I give them 5* all around for owning up to the mistake that may have happened and they went ABOVE and BEYOND to correct it. They gave me a gift Certificate to try out their new recipe and I'm excited to try it! You never get this kind a generosity that i recieved after the fact. Thank you so much The Half Penny.----------Prev post: I put in special notes for a ToGo order on a Chicke Fettuccine Alfredo pasta and in the noted "Extra creamy please and thank you so much" and I ended up just eating oil slathered pasta. No flavor at all.Parking: Parking is parking. Be patient, Show up on time or expect to be late. It's not The Half Penny's fault everyone shows up last minute during dinner hours. Can't blame them for having the best prime rib on the weekends.“

“We stopped in last night for dinner. I hadn't ever been in and wanted to see what all the hype was about. We'll... we walked in and felt like we were in a good ol' neighborhood bar. The staff were welcoming and the ambiance was perfect for us for a Wednesday night. I ordered the special Teriyaki Burger with steak fries and hubby ordered Chilli Burger with steak fries and a side salad. Everything was prepared great. Our food was served up hot and tasty. Service was very attentive. We really enjoyed ourselves! Fun place to play a little video lottery as well! We'll definitely be back!“

“I started coming here to play darts with my friend Jeannie, and everyone is very welcoming, the Bartender remembers your drink. The food is pretty good. It's typical bar food!I always enjoy myself when there. Darts is the main draw. It's not the plastic tips for sissies. We play real darts with metal.“

“Horrible service. The Manager Amber always looks disheveled and has an attitude. Who is in customer service with a constant scowl on their face and it looked like they just rolled out of bed and threw their hair in a bun no make up no pride in themselves sweats and sweatshirt working in a bar looks terrible you can tell it’s a dive bar for sure.“

“I've been to this place many times. And the bartenders are always on it. As well as give genuine conversation and not scripted remarks. That alone can make a not so good place seem wonderful. As for li'l Sammies though, it has other amenities as well. Drinks made proper, good fried food as well as sandwiches, and a couple machines set away from the main gaming room if you want to socialize with friends at the bar while playing. Overall A+“

My niece enjoyed her salad and we shared a piece of the Tuxedo cake for desert. Service was fast and friendly, and we were able to sit and catch up without being rushed. Great view of the runway.“

“I love this bar. The bartenders are laid back, n friendly. Slots can get busy, but very short wait time. I play pool for free on some days while I'm waiting for a free machine, so it's been kinda Kool. Their covered outdoor lounge has many different functions, with a few outdoor heaters n even a few outdoor games, hell, u could easily make them drinking games. Location is great, tons of parking, n a at least 3 stores for smokes, etc.. plus a farmers market with food court across the st. Easy on n off Silverton rd, Brown rd, and close to Corden rd. I would recommend it to anybody looking for an all in one spot to let go of the days hardships n just chill a little. Be blessed.“

Lucky's Pub & Lotto Bar • $

“Lucky's Pub has a super comfortable local's vibe. The space is mostly clean -- I can't really hold a few dirty glasses and unwiped tables against a crew of 1-2, especially when the customer service is so exceptional. The bartenders are enthusiastic and friendly, the regulars are (for the most part) mellow and welcoming, and there's a nice variety of relatively private Oregon VLT machines if that's your thing. I'll be coming back, for sure. If this place had a slightly bigger crew on-shift to keep up with cleaning and maybe support a food menu, Lucky's would be an easy 5 stars.“

“The most special-occasion restaurant I patronize. Classy ambience, view, sharp personnel. As a senior dining alone I don't feel as comfortable here as I would at Josey's, say, otherwise I would patronize them weekly. I lunch only, and have had what I would call pub grub. Regulars who review on other forums report that the kitchen is capable of performing at a very high level. An exceptional venue for Salem and it deserves to live.“
