i had to go inside to get attention of the waitress , who told me to go back outside if i wanted to sit outside, she would be right with me... so i went back out and waited like a good boy. well, 8 minutes later she came by to bring me a huge beer menu, (good reading to pass the time) and a food menu (everything overpriced ). i knew what i wanted but she sorta tossed the menus at me and went back inside. i made a phonecall and checked the time... 5 minutes later she was serving someone else and i had to get her attention to order a pint. 12 minutes later the pint arrived, and it was great. but after i was done, no waitress in sight. im glad i didnt order another one, i had to go inside to cash out and found that the beer was 5.25! what is this a fucking airport?! i can get growlers of rogue beers at the thurman mart for 4 and change! i think ill stick to that, and wont be back to this lame pub, thanks.

This place is absolute shit. The ONLY reason to go is if you have a growler you want filled. The beer is great, but they charge a dollar more for a pint here than at real bars in town (how's that work?). The bartender is an unmitigated prick, and the waitress came to our table approximately once every 45 minutes.

This was a one-or-two-times-a-year place for me (as I said, the beer is very good), but is now a never-again place.

Fucking awful.

Hands down the best pub in the area, and probably the whole of downtown Portland. A non-yuppie refuge amongst the Pearl District's cocktail bars. The food's good, the beer's fantastic, and they have a red telephone box in the middle of the room for no apparent reason. What more can you ask for?
