I've been visiting this restaurant intermittently since it first opened. The food is decent, and the bar area is quite nice. However, I have a significant issue with their beer tap system. Beer should be served cold, but that hasn't been the case for years. I’ve noticed that as soon as the staff place the glasses under the tap, the beer starts to foam up because it’s too warm. They then pour the foam into a pitcher and often use that pitcher to top off the glasses, which has likely been sitting out for who knows how long. It’s disheartening to see so much beer being wasted—enough that the owner should consider investing in fixing the problem. Just yesterday, I saw three pitchers, each about...
Now, let's talk about the food—it’s simply the best in town! Each dish is carefully crafted and served to perfection, featuring fresh, locally-sourced ingredients paired with inventive flavor combinations that will delight your palate. Every bite takes you on a culinary journey, leaving you eagerly anticipating the next.

Cheers to EJ Phair, Becky, Teresa, and their outstanding team!
This place is absolutely fantastic! It’s definitely one of the top spots in the area. The staff are incredibly friendly, warm, and have a great sense of humor. After just a few visits (which you'll certainly want to make!), you’ll feel like you’re stepping into a friend’s home. The food is delicious, offering a full menu that caters to any craving you might have. Their beer selection is outstanding, featuring a constantly changing lineup of local microbrews, including pilsners, lagers, pale ales, IPAs, and even triple IPAs! If you prefer wine, they have a lovely selection as well. I'm heading there now, so see you soon!
Absolutely! This place was once a fantastic butcher shop, known for its quality cuts of meat, but unfortunately, it couldn't sustain itself. Now, it's transformed into a cozy brewery that offers incredible pub food. A big shoutout to the chef and bartender, Rob, who consistently provide exceptional service and delicious flavors. They have an outstanding selection of beers and genuinely enjoy chatting with customers about their day. I'll definitely be returning every Monday since it's conveniently on my commute and offers a quick and satisfying experience.

This is a wonderful, relaxed pub. At lunchtime, there’s ample seating at the bar, and just the right number of patrons around if you feel like striking up a conversation. The food is excellent! While most bar food tends to be average, this place competes well with some of the best bar food in Portland, which I truly admire! Whether it’s burgers, fish and chips, pasta, or pretty much anything else, everything is delicious. Their beer selection is impressive too, as they update their beer menu several times a week.
We stopped in for a quick bite and a beer on our way to a wedding, and we didn’t want to leave! The food was exceptional! We devoured the shrimp dumplings before I had a chance to snap a picture, and the steak fondue was amazing! The service was fantastic, thanks to Becky, the owner, Teresa, the brewmaster, and Joe, the chef. The atmosphere had great vibes and music, and there were so many options on the menu! We can’t wait to return!
I recently had one of the best cheeseburgers I've ever eaten at this place. The bartender was really laid-back and friendly as well. Given how amazing that cheeseburger was, I will definitely be returning to try more items from their menu. I believe the burger had "Diablo" in its name.
The burgers and beer and service were all amazing! The sweet potato fries were pretty good too but I'd skip the garlic fries since they were just raw garlic and grated parm on fries

The food was just average. When I ordered wine, I received only a quarter of a glass. There's really no reason for me to return, except for its proximity to my home.
We had a lovely Saturday evening. The restaurant wasn't too crowded, and we sat outside with our dog. The food was delicious, and the sangria was great too.
