BarFly's Review of Joe's Cellar

On the edge of northwest's still-extant industrial zones, the damnably-loyal blue-collar and blue-haired (some choosing retirement locale upon Joe's proximity) regulars drink chockablock 'round the horseshoe bar with gentler new locals and journalist manques wandering down from the new WW HQ. It's not actually a cellar, and nobody, of course, seems to remember a Joe - if anything, the unadorned bar and perennially unoccupied diner portion seem an oversized, enclosed porch welcoming friendly onlookers with strong-as-fuck specials and all-day gravy-infused breakfasts. The juke's slowly changing, perhaps, and the morning happy-hours serve a different sort of graveyard employee these days, but they couldn't be handling the transition with more grace. One trembles at the next generation's animatronic longshoremen.

Reader Reviews of Joe's Cellar
frendly local bar
ed2020Joe's is a great place to relax and spend some time. There are a lot of friendly people drinking in here and the bar staff makes you feel like you're right at home. The drinks are strong and the have 3 pool tables, maybe 4. There is a nearby Chinese restaurant that you can order food in form late night, which makes this place even more special. They have TVs and keno and all the usual goods.

on the way back to the Yamhill
Yamadaafter the Red Sox game we stopped for a few drinks here.
I loved it, the regulars & BTs seemed cool, played a few good
games of pool and just felt at home. mentioned this place
to another regular at the Yam later and he scoffed and said it
was filled with meth junkies etc ... i just laughed (i.e. pot meet kettle)

Old man's place
and I feel right at home. I like places where the clientle is older than dirt. Drinks are stiff, food is good and finally they've got a decent jukebox.
