When Phish is on tour they simulcast the show and give you high quality headsets to listen as loud as you'd like. The show plays in the bar overall. But it's at a normal volume. So the headsets are VERY nice to filter out all other noise. Now the taps! Another knockout. They offer a rotating list of offerings from the best beers in a major beer city. You can't go wrong with any of them. The staff is fun, friendly and knowledgeable. My wife and I had such a good time we left with a t-shirt and beer can koozies to give friends so they don't forget to visit when they are in town. Overall loved this place and went twice while we were in town.

Everyone is willing to say hello, met a sweet pup, named Happy! We were all fast friends by the end of the evening. Priceless. All stories, fun folks, nice people working, but no kitchen. They do have a nice selection of snacks and such, you're at a bar, for like $2 dollars, those nuts are delicious--what else do you really need? And, cash only. If you're expecting something other than an amazing, local spot that loves puppies, move along, but if you're you want just an old-Portland-dive that is fun, cheap and will actually get to know you, this is the place!

All of ten people at the bar area including the bartender. A special reads"sloppy joe's" on a sign towards the rear but no one is eating it and I'm sure for good reason. Options of jerky, candy bars, chips, nuts and gum are just behind the bar and are probably safer choices. Steelers and Cubs items are all about the bar area, so someone there is a fan. This looks like a cool place, right? They have a small selection of good beers but PBR seems to be the choice of the guys next to me. The woman in the seat by me, chatting with bartender, is choosing some of the local beers while guys at the far end are casually watching a Cardinals baseball game. The rest of the bar and the patio are empty. I don't know if that's normal, but it is for tonight. The beer is decent in price and I nursed a local IPA while I watched some of the MMA fights. I was just there to unwind and it's a great place to do that with no expectations. It's not a place I'd go to often, but I'd go back. Enjoy.

We drove to the area for an event at the Alberta Rose Theatre and my wife did the research on where to go. I am glad she picked The Knock Back. We ordered off of the extensive happy hour menus as the price was too tempting. My wife and one of our friends each ordered the After School Snack, which consisted of a Grill Cheese Sandwich and Tomato Soup. The other friend and I each had the HH Burger. It was perfectly seasoned, and full of flavor. We ordered two orders of french fries, and they also were perfect. Hot, crispy and plentiful. I loved the fry sauce as well. The beverages were diverse and all were excellent. We will come back when we attend the next event at the theatre.

There is a mixture of tables and booths in the main area and a back room space that also has tables. The only issue during my visit is that they seemed a little understaffed as it looked like there was just one server for the whole place and they seemed a bit over extended when things picked up.
