BarFly's Review of Below Deck
Below Deck is pretty much the only bar in Portland that features pool in the swimming sense and hosts some fabulous specialty beverages. The atmosphere combines a Caribbean Pirate flair with South Pacific tiki sensibilities. Customers are invited to try their hand at 'tending, however, no more than two people are allowed behind the bar at a time. 2x Pinball, Board games galore, while eating the chip snacks within one hour of entering the aforementioned pool insure horrible cramps., 442 Soccer Bar, 72nd Avenue Pub, Arlington Club, Bagdad Theater, Bar Bar at Mississippi Studios, Bar Lolo, Bar of the Gods (BOG), Bare Bones Bar, Barley Mill Pub, Bazi Bierbrasserie, Beaterville Cafe & Bar, Bella Faccia Pizzeria, Belmont's Inn, Bleachers, Blitz Sports Club, Blue Monk, Blue Moon, Blush, Bonfire Lounge, Bossanova Ballroom, Box Social, Bula Kava House, Bull Mountain Bar & Grill, Bulldog Tavern, Burnside Brewing Company, Cactus Jacks Sports Bar, Candle Light, Candlelight Room, Canton Grill: Dragon Lounge, Cascade Bar & Grill, Cascade Brewing Barrel Room, Casey's, Chapel Pub, Chopsticks Express, Club 21, Coaster's, Columbia River Brewing, Conquistador, Cracker Box Tavern, Crush, Cuda Beach Club, Daily Double, Dante's, Dig A Pony, Dolphin, Enso Winery, Foggy Notion, Free House, Fulton Street Pub, Garageland, Gemini Lounge, Grape Vine Restaurant Ballroom, Greeley Avenue Bar & Grill, Ground Kontrol, Guild Public House, Harborside Pilsner Room, Havana West (Hal's Tavern), Hawthorne Hideaway, Hawthorne Hophouse, Hawthorne Strip, Hawthorne Theatre (a.k.a.

Is this a test template for the site, an inside joke, an ultra secret bar/club in Portland Oregon, or something else?
Sounds like a cool place if it exists. Some real info on its location would be helpful.
I like this place, but the owner's a little bit gropy (regulars call him "Two Hands McGropy") . . . good thing he's hot! Rumor is, he's also planning a small two-hole miniature golf course in the back yard!
