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.

Cons: they're often playing metal music because that's what the dude pouring beer wants to listen to. Maybe something more universally enjoyable? Less intense? I'm not asking for pop or top 40, just something for the customers too. We haven't been the only folks to comment on the music the few times we've been. Lastly, there are barely any outlets. I see folks working here sometimes and it would be nice to have more outlets available--even a power strip or two would be great! It's pretty much always full of annoying middle aged white dudes too

On our last day in Portland, we had a few hours to enjoy before I had to go to the airport. It was…read moremorning and thankfully this place popped up nearby that met our needs: coffee shop, food trucks, and brewery taproom. After coffee, we switched to beer. They don't do beer flights here, but do smaller pours so I opted for those. This isn't their main brewery, just a taproom, but it was a nice selection of draft beers and cans to go. The bartender was super friendly and told me about the place. The coolest thing here are their English style hand pull cask beers, which provides such a pleasant creamy body to beers. It's rare to find these in the USA, so if you're a fan this place is worth seeking out. Prices were reasonable for the great quality beer.

When we arrived, we had time to look at the drink options while watching the bartender create a delicate, delightful looking cocktail for the person in front of us.

First time in this friendly neighborhood beer hall. Came for their offering during Portland Pizza…read moreWeek. The intent is that you can get a creative slice for a uniform price at any participating location during the promo week. But here they only sell a whole pan. Would it kill them just to play along? Feels kinda underhanded. That said, their square "Let's Get Baked" was kinda weak, but with a yummy crust. After this experience I conclude that potato does not go well on pizza, the flavor profile is too bland. The wait was long. No condiments other than pepper flakes. The tables propped up by a large beer keg kinda suck as it's difficult to stretch your legs. Friendly bartender. iPad defaults to a minimum 20%, but that's Portland. The Trainsong Saison beer completed the meal well. Doable parking. People look happy here.

I was hoping to get a shot, but found out it was in face a BREWERY. So I opted for a sweeter red wine. Unfortunately, I do not remember the name of it. It was good, had a great mouth feel. The service was nice, a lady was working, helped me and answered a few questions of mine as to why " The Pie Spot" was no longer there. Seating was nice, it was a garage style bar, sun shining through, and air coming through. Felt fresh and clean. I would definitely go back. You should try it out too!

I called around 12:30 and they told me orders aren't in call at two so I called a half hour later and they told me the orders are in and they said my order was there so we proceed to drive quite a distance to get there and of course they didn't get me what I ordered. They came out with a quarter keg that they already had in stock which we talked about and he said he had to order the half when I get there. No half Keg ,have a party today and now no keg,didn't even offer to help me all he could say was oh we ordered the wrong one and that's all he would do. I wouldn't go back to that place if you paid me. And every one at the party is very pissed off! I done my orders here a few years ago and got the wrong beer that time .

In fact, the very first time we went to that location, it was called 'Sir Loins'! His grandparents used to take us there, and after Sir Loins, we went back once, but were not happy with their steak. Years later, we'll give them another chance. Hubby ordered a glass of Merlot, and said it was excellent. For his meal, he ordered the Surf and Turf, which was an 8 ounce sirloin steak and large fried shrimp. As his side, he ordered the loaded baked potato. A green salad was also ordered. We were quite frankly blown away by the food. The steak was cooked exactly as requested and was as tender as could be. The potato was hot and loaded, and came with additional butter, sour cream and green onions to add on. Toasted cheese bread was on the plate. The salad with ranch dressing was just fine too. All that for a very reasonable price. Service was quick and friendly. The vibe of the pub was friendly as well. I got Rueben Sandwich with fries. We shared the salad, above. The sauerkraut with my Rueben was far more better than one I had recently! Half of everything, was set for another meal.
