BarFly's Review of Ladd's Inn
Segueing from blues club to dance spot to sports bar the past decade, this seemingly can't-miss locale has been haunted by a bristling neighborhood entitlement rising alongside property values, but the lazy charms of Ladd's Inn may well last til the Addition's officially gated. While much seems essentially unchanged since the old acid jazz days, a languid comfort's been larded upon the Jezebel's skeleton with dance floor turned conversation pit and club chairs circling the low-slung bar. Limply-attended karaoke, trivia and acoustic open mic nights draw mixed crowds just small enough to keep the bar alive.
Happy Hours

It's my last name...
...so it's got to be a good bar, right? Of course! This is actually one of the first bars I've gone to after I turned 21 and a lot of the Sierra Club kids go here. It's a good, fun place.

Nice hangout
I went here for my 21st. And again couple days later. Loved it! Besides being smokey, Ive noticed its a place for a younger crowd. They have Rock Band playing on Tuesday nights, where people sign up to play the game. As well the drinks arent too bad either. Cheap! My friends and I now come here to hang.

went on monday night, almost croaked from the cigarette smoke, but liked the band so i stuck around. 4 geezers who really rock old school.the
drinks are strong and cheap, after a while i didn't mind the smoke so much, and the old gal sitting at the bar started to look pretty good....

Ladd's Inn
Monday nights there's a Jazzy blues combo that starts at 8:30 called Organ LeRoi and the Donors. They drag in an actual Hammond B-3 organ and wail away. It's REALLY smoky but the music is rockin'.
The place gets crowded by 10, and the band plays till around midnight. There's half price well drinks and microbrews, which is a pretty cool deal what with the free tunes.

headed there tonight on a recomendation from a lady.. whom I will be meeting for drinks after work. I've heard nothing but good things about this place
Nice place
I love this place. My band used to play here and since we didn't have a huge following there was always plenty of room for everyone. The food is adequate, but the drinks are, shall we say, on the strong side! And Jessica, the new bartender, is HOT!!

Justin is a gracious host welcoming all types of performers. 9ish on Thursday nites. Like many open mics, crowd size is spotty. Regulars are friendly at the bar and there are some couches and a variety of tables. I enjoyed the wings and will return periodically.

Trivia night is now on Sunday nights, and it's totally dead because no one shows up for it. The questions are always posted at http://seportland.blogspot.com/

Cozy, friendly place
The place is just called "Ladd's Inn" now, and doesn't have that freaky woman on the sign anymore. They should add a review under the current name, as the owners and some of the staff have changed. And the karaoke guy is known by "Hutch" to the staff and regulars.
