BarFly's Review of Dr. Feelgood's Pub (CLOSED)
Home Turf Sports Bar
I've lived in Tigard since '03 and I go to all the local watering holes and I've always wondered why this place in particular has so much turnover, new people every other month it seems. The other bars have employees who have worked there for ever but not here. H. Turf, O'briens, Mixers, even Manilla, but not here. Why? All the employees they've gone through can't ALL have been bad employees, is management an issue? I'm just wondering.
After reading your reviews of Seattle places I realized the type of place you guys like... So when I read Dr feelgoods review, I knew it needed a personal look. yes its not a chardonnay sipping, politic talking trendy bar. But what I found was a meat and bones american bar, with hard working guys and girls. A really great mix, from the young hip hoppers to the older rock n rollers all the way to some CEO types. And thats really the great thing about the place you guys clearly don't understand about suburbia. There is not alot of choices, and to see such a broad discection of the area all together having a good time. I think Dr Feelgoods has done what alot of bars could only dream of. I will return to Dr Feelgoods and appreciate having a beer with American finest people.
Well what do you say about this place that hasn't already been said. You walk in this place and notice what does this bar want to be. A sports bar? A dance club? It had no identity at all. It says it is a CHief's bar but come on who really follows some midwest shitty football team that never wins The female that owns it along with her husband I think are very strange to say the least. She seems to wander the bar like she is in a haze with no real grasp of reality. She is a major gossip hound who believes in everything she hears. But everyone seems to love her over her midget husband. Now thi s guy seems to have quite an attitude. I asked to order a drink and he looked at me and said "give me a minute I am busy" I looked around and I was the only patron in the bar. This tool wore a fanny pack and walked around like he had 7 inches in his pants. I'm sure it's half that if he's lucky. He is a loud mouth they both need ballgags in their mouths everyone would be so happy. Now would I ever go back? YES this seems to be a bar that people would like to be mistreated at and have fun at the same time. SO YES to Dr. Feelgood's
Ya like to brawl? Can no suburb bouncer best you in a fight? If someone cuts in front of you for the pool table do you automatically pound them into meatloaf? If your answer's yes, your new hangout is Dr. Feelgood's on weekend nights. The Dj's try to fun the place up by playing dance music for their younger patrons while the many mulletheads that frequent the place complain loudly that they aren't playing metal. The perfect place to play "find the white trash," which is when you play Sweet Home Alabama on the jukebox and see who goes, "Whooooo!!" Pretty mellow on quiet nights just keep a sharp eye on your purse unless you want it nabbed by one of the many tweakers who pitstop there on their way to Mixers. Recommend just doing happy hour there and calling it good.
