    Bar bites menu.
    Andrew C.

    Basic but somewhat cozy neighborhood spot that (mostly) hits the key points for me. A nice open layout, not too big but not cramped, full bar, okay tap list and an adequate menu listing slightly better than usual dive bar fare. Think nachos, fries, and tots but also egg rolls (likely out of a box) caprese bites and such. Enough large screens to get your sports fix on, and of course, video lottery. It's a no-frills slightly boxy joint inside but not too divey and manages to feel warm - probably due to the wood paneled ceiling and a couple of booths near the window. BarTenders are all business but friendly with prompt service. There is a covered patio too but it's not the best vibe. Bar 3 is a solid local spot - better than average, IMO - even though it's in a strip-mall-ish location on busy Multnomah Blvd..

    After a nice meal at Ploy's Thai, my Son suggested a nightcap at Bar 3. This is probably the closest thing to his neighborhood bar, which also has a modest pub food menu. My only surprise here, was dedicated area containing slot machines. I don't know Oregon laws on this subject, but I did briefly feel that I was back in Nevada, where this sort of thing is always in the background. Past that, our barkeep was efficient, and graciously accepted my offer to be carded, after my son was. At that point, a fellow patron commented that I just got under the wire age-wise. David ordered whiskey on ice, while I had a local draft craft beer. We enjoyed our drinks, and enjoyed chatting, including catching up with Gayle (who called in while we were here). We passed on another round, but one that will come on a future visit.

    I took a picture thinking those are the next drinks I'll try when I come again! (I had tequila with fresh muddled strawberries)

    First time, this is the third bar of 3 bars within 2 miles of one another...which explains the name. It's surprisingly not dark inside for looking dark on the outside. It's friendly, pretty mellow, I hear there are food specials daily, the drinks are delicious and a sizable pour. The video games move, and music was eclectic for being so PDX suburb. Really though, the bartender made my "flying solo" experience delightful (as a single woman meandering in the area) Check out the drinks.. there's a butterfly pea cocktail. Come for a hello. It's nice to be in a neighborhood bar that's zero drama

    French dip w/ peppers and onions, real good!

    Tucked in the strip mall next to Plaid Pantry, this place is a cozy neighborhood spot with great food! Walked in on a Friday night and the place was lively, about four or so TV's going and the heat was crankin', perfect spot to be. Ordered the Buffalo Chicken Mac and the French dip. Both were really good, not mind blowing but real solid food. The tap list is on the smaller side, but all really great options. Bunch of specials on the chalk board and the service was absolutely perfect! 4 stars for this place. Keep in mind, I'm not comparing it to Ava Gene's or anything, just yelping it based on what it is; a suburbs sports bar. Great spot.

    $3.50 PBR's every day of the week ... Is that even legal? HELL YAH IT IS!

    Great little neighborhood hang-out at the edge of Multnomah Village. It's not gonna blow you away, but it ain't gonna disappount either. The menu is short and focused, the bar serves nicely chilled beer, and there's even an outdoor patio for when it warms up a bit. They do trivia on Tue nights too. Give this place a try. You might find your new favorite hang-out.

    Understaffed and food was definitely can to the pan and not worth the above fast food prices. Off my list of neighborhood go-tos for sure.

    Bar3 also has a great food menu you can't go wrong with any of the choices, my favorite so far is the NY steak sandwich.

More lounge-y inside, which is lovely sexy and cool with warm vibes and twinkling chili lights, but to me, it just doesn't jibe with the outdoor area aesthetic-- does it want to be a lounge or a surf bar? I might be splitting hairs here, just an observation. In any case, taken on its own merits, the sleek interior space is very nice indeed, and service was excellent; the menu is compact, but looks promising, and there is a cool TV room in the back where you can literally watch DVD on an old set. Love it! The outdoor area (upfront, overlooking Capital Hwy) is a spacious grassy plot, with a good amount of chairs arranged on either side strategically placed near heaters, and is a great spot to spend summer afternoons - there's even a covered part. To me, it just feels like a completely different business which I guess is good if you can't decide what mood you're in. I'll be back to try the food, and will update then.

It's on the street level of a multistory apartment building, with big windows that look out onto Capital Highway, which makes for good people watching, and there's a dozen or so tables --- both low and high ---- inside for seating. A couple of TV screens are tucked up into the corners, but the vibe is definitely not that of a sports bar; more of a semi-private club. Thumbs up to these guys for usually having an interesting, off-the-beaten-path selection of beers, ciders and wines. It's always fun to try something new, Alas, there's no food - like, at all - which is why I'm taking off a star, but otherwise it's a throughly pleasant (if kind of generic, decor-wise) space in which to enjoy a tasty brew among the friendly local denizens of Multnomah Village.

The bar has been open barely a year, yet somehow managed to hire staff who treat the space like their personal kingdom instead of a public establishment. One bartender in particular seems incapable of separating personal feelings from professional conduct. something that has followed her around Tigard for decades. locals will most likely recognize a pattern of pettiness, inconsistent service, and customers being 86'd not for behavior, but for existing in a way that bruises an ego. Management may want to take a closer look at who they've put behind the bar. Because when staff behavior feels immature, jealous, and wildly unprofessional, it reflects poorly on a business that's still trying to build a reputation.
