    I dig this place! Cheap food and strong cocktails for cheap!! Can't go wrong! The staff is pretty…read morefriendly as well. We frequent pretty often. We would go more if there was outdoor seating that allowed our friendly and well behaved pup but it's only for the smokers and I don't smoke. I like the felony flats cheeseburger and jello shots! They have a pool table that is pretty popular. They have a parking lot and great hours. Breakfast is pretty good as well! They have good specials on weekends for breakfast, I usually get that with a bloody mary.

    Extremely disappointed w/ how I was treated this evening. This location is my favorite to visit out…read moreof the few "dives" that we have in this neighborhood. Respectfully..."you get what you get & you don't throw a fit" is how I like to explain this location I tip well, I keep to myself & roll with the different "vibes" that enjoy this bar. I'm happy to co-exist... HOWEVER, Arley* was the most unwelcoming this visit than I've ever encountered. Unfortunately, I'm sure my words will fall upon deaf ears. She's been working there since dirt was discovered. A Crypt Keeper, if you will. I refuse to be belittled & made to feel small by a grumpy grinch, ESPECIALLY while I'm continuously tipping well above average. I'll be back. I'll continue to patronize the bar. I'll be adjusting my gratitude where I see most fit. My name is Kelsey

    It's not a bad spot but just a tad strange. It fits right into Portland! I come here because the…read moredrinks are cheaper then anywhere and the food is pretty decent. Small burgers so I recommend you get two burgers and fries. It's a neighbourhood bar so it's frequented by locals and people from the sorrounding neighbourhoods but it's not a very diverse crowd. Caucasian-dominant. I got the punk-vibe from both female bartenders and it seems to be a spot for alot of service workers to hang out. Interesting decor inside. I would not mind coming back but that's only because of the cheap drinks! It opens at 4pm every day and you can find the hours on google.

    When I moved into the neighborhood, this place was called Queen of Hearts. There were always about…read morea thousand motorcycles parked outside, along with a colorful cast of characters from the neighborhood. I never once stepped inside. When Queen of Hearts changed over to Cadigan's Corner, the bikes motored on, but the characters remained. I only went one time, but the experience was intense and memorable, and included a server with a spirit-collecting sword, and a sign that said: "We are not responsible for women left unattended." Among other highlights. So when Old Gilbert took over the spot, I had small hopes, but one leery eye on the door. I've been in a good number of times now, and in comparison to its predecessors, it's fantastic. One generally feels pretty safe, and the flair for the dramatic is low. All in all, it's pretty bare bones. I'm waiting for it to fully develop its personality, but for now its theme to me is: cheap thrills, no frills.
