Walked in
and walked right back out. Too much neon.

I take it back
I've been hanging out at LoL some more lately, and I have decided I must retract my statement about the grumpy bartender. She is grumpy, but she is OK, too, once she gets to know you a bit. She's just one of those people whose default menu is "short and not too friendly sounding."

But once you hear her interact with the regulars (of whom there are legion it seems), you see that she is indeed a decent and worthy human, and I must admit that she is good at her job- changes ashtrays regularly, wipes down tables and counter, gets to people quickly and efficiently.

She said she had decades of experience, and it does show in her professionalism, which oh so many of her younger breth & sistren are lacking. So, I now give her a gold star of approval and I honor her bitchiness, her crispy crust over her chewy nougat, or whatever.

I am starting to really appreciate bitchy older ladies, anyway, in preparation for being one, I guess.

Also I saw her deal with a guy who was drunk or on drugs the other night. She was firm and refused immediately to serve him, but she was kind as well, and showed concern of a sort, and told him why she would not serve him.

So, yeah, Lotsa Luck - comfy chairs, cool layout, good vid pokey games, and a crusty, super-efficient, bartender from the generation when bartending meant more than leaning on the counter and talking to your friends.

Nice chairs, mean lady
We tried to like this place because the chairs for the vid poker machines are so dang comfy! The bartender, however, was grumpy and deflected all attempts at friendliness, despite our hefty tips every time we cashed out our tickets.

I must admit, though, that she gave us free soda pop, which was most welcome since we were plowing so much money into the machines.

After she brought over our food, we gave her a 50 to pay the tab, and she only brought back one 20 and a few ones for a tab of 8 bucks. We told her that she had shorted us but she assured us she had not, and that she has been bartending for long enough to know better, and besides we were playing the poker machines, so we didn't notice.

We knew, however, that we were right, and stayed polite and apologetic, but left our phone number, asking her to let us know if her drawer was over by the amount we were missing. She never called.

Fun with a capital F
Chuck and Lynn out did their selves on this remodel. The ambiance is relaxing, seems more like a downtown happy hour bar now. Outside does not reflect the inside at all. Everyone should stop by and take a look and tell them Goodness sent ya.

I'm a Skirtchaser!
I love hanging out at this bar! lots of loose beer and cheap women!

Not bad
Have to admit - I wasn't going to give this place another look.

The place is pretty decent inside. Drinks were OK

I think some chick redid the place

Sweet Ass Chairs!!
Friendly staff. Decent Drinks. Found this place late last night, and was pleasantly surprised. I will go back just for the comfy black leather excutive chairs, these thing are awesome, height control and you can lean back. would never make this my destination, but will definatley stop in next time i'm in the area!

Saturday Food & Drinks
WOW!! What a surprise. We dropped in Saturday morning while our car was serviced next door. What we thought would be a dive really turned out to be one of the best bar & grills in SE Portland. It was very clean, real comfortable seating and the food (omelets & chicken fried steak) was fast and tastey! Drinks were top-notch (Bloody Mary, Coffee, Tea) and staff was very friendly. This place is going to be famous as Waffle House some day! Stop in!
