SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL

Ok. My girlfriend lives down Greely from here. Normally on a Sunday night we'd stumble up to the Nitehawk, familiar territory for pool and stiff drinks.

This particular evening the Nitehawk was full up for some pool tournament. Not typically a big deal most nights, but we had like 6 people in tow that wanted to play pool and drink..

YORGO'S TO THE RESCUE.

At first the patrons in there for the free Monday Night Football session in HD gave us some sideways glances. I mean, wouldn't you if you were joe-every man, enjoying a frosty cold light beer and football when suddenly a group of late 20/early 30 something, tattooed, black clad weirdo's walk into your bar?

No problems. Staff was quick, friendly and efficient. Poured great drinks. and the bartender even played Bauhaus on the internet jukebox as a silent tribute to us, even though we never asked.

I have a feeling I'll be back there often. With or without the posse.

UO?

Don't you mean UP, lockie. Sorry to nitpick. Rarely see any Adidas people in there, but the again I don't really know what they look like anyway. Anyhow, a good mix of people at Yorgo's, that's for sure. Although, that may change since N. Portland is now being called "the new Southeast" or something stupid like that.

Classic North Portland dive

Good staff, decent people, shitty food and stiff drinks. The neighborhood mix here is great, and the "classy" resturants that have sprung up around it bring in a little of everything. Lots of college students from UO, staff from the Adidas building right next door and the usual North Portland scumfucks. Great place to get trashed on a weekend and get into an argument with crackheads out front after.

sweeeeet.

You like strong drinks? You like a huge pile of greasy fries and a toothless biker challenging you to a pool game? This is the place for you! Lots of character.

No pretense

This is a divey bar with no pretense as to what it offers! Friendly service and cheap stiff drinks. It has a wide open space with a number of experienced looking regulars bellied up to the bar. I've only been on weeknights, imagine weekends probably gets a decent crowd. Nice mix of young and old boozers.

It's a pretty convenient location and has a serviceable deck out front if you want to watch traffic.
