BarFly's Review of Bye and Bye
New bar on the quickly developing lower end of NE Alberta St with large roll-up garage doors, a huge back patio, and a large cement bar. Great jukebox, tons of bike parking, and a staff that's as nice as they are easy on the eyes. The aptly named cocktail "Bye and Bye," served in a mason jar, is deceivingly light and refreshing while packing a mean punch. Strict vegan menu - meaning no Irish or whipped cream. Hours: Sunday 12pm-2:30am, Mon-Thurs 4pm-2:30am, Friday 2pm-2:30am, Saturday 12pm-2:30am. Minors welcome til 9pm.

this was a super welcome find. i just moved here from oakland -- the bye and bye is pretty much a cross of kitty's and the stork club (for any of you from the bay area). great beer, good prices, hot and friendly bartenders (and for the record, the service was great). plus it has what every bar needs: snacks. and hamms. and hooks for your bag under the bar.

... the staff. Each one of those boys are sweet, helpfull, well mannered, and hard working. What more could you want? I've been served nothing but tasty and quality drinks there and appriciate that they do a bang up job on every single cocktail even when its crazy busy. My only complaint is the crazy busy part. I loved it when this place first opened and i could actually find a seat. But they work their sweet asses off back there and I enjoy watching every bit of it while I wait my turn. Bye and Bye, I think i'm in love.

Since moving to NE in October this place has become my new watering hole. The design is beautiful top to bottom, the service is ridiculously friendly, and the drinks are worth every penny. It's nice to know my drinking dollars are going to such a nice bunch of guys. Would love to see a few more menu options but otherwise I think this place is pretty much perfect. Everyone I take here agrees.

So I want to love this place and often forget I don't. The first time I went was the best. Really not good for large groups. Each time I've been back I've waited longer for the guy behind the bar to realize someone new is belly up at the bar, thats just a hard impression to get over. Once noticed prompt service follows (last time it took 30 min.). The service is really not good for big groups, which makes it hard to convince my non-vegan boyfriend to take me (he lives on Gladstone and I on Burnside so its a bit of a trek) and bring along a bunch of friends to the VEGAN bar. Besides all this it is a great space. And the service, once obtained, is stellar. Don't let the fact that it's vegan through you its honestly a nice place to sit and get sh*ty, If you're into that. Also nice to grab some food. The sampler with 3 choices is my cheep fav.
