    Beer cheese apppetizer!
    Corrie C.

    I really like the atmosphere here. Service was good, stopped in needing food before heading to an event and she recommended this beer cheese appetizer and it was so good. Nice spot to stop!

    Good time out side today

    Went in for a cold one on a cold night. Beer is always tasty here. Can't wait to go back.

    Seinfeld Beer!

    Met a friend for lunch and got food at 1 of the 3 food trucks outside: Thai, Mexican, and a Health Food truck with sandwiches and smoothies. We grabbed a beer and brought our food in once it was ready! Good ambience and friendly staff. The Thai food and beer were great! Had to buy their Seinfeld beer - delicious!

    Was here for the Oregon brewery run series 5k. Super fun event. Had a few friends meet me there after the run, got some beers and burritos from the food truck out back. Beers were excellent, burritos were great. Relaxed atmosphere, super nice staff. Will definitely be back!

    Vancouver's finest. Trap Door is easily one of my favorite breweries in California, Oregon, and Washington. I'll admit that it was their quirky pop like names that got me coming in. Initially, I thought, was this another hype? Does their beer really live up to their name? What the..... Super Treat? Juicy Brut? Flavor Town? Thank You? Yeah, the owner's son (brewer) did a great job in the marketing side of things, too. Anyways, I'm proud that Vancouver has this gem. It's a nice place to relax and they even have food trucks in the patio! I have yet to bring my dog but I'm sure he'll love it, too. Beer is excellent and the can is a great collectable. The only downside is that they are a bit pricier than your average. About $6ish a can. On the flip side, they brew in batches so whatever they have is what they have. Don't wait too long or you'll be left in the dust.

    2 minutes away, Brothers Cascadia Brewery is a hidden gem. Just go try their burgers, fries, beers…read moreand you will get what I mean. Consistently great food, top notch service, no matter the day or time. Honestly, just make the simple decision to keep your hard earned money and skip Goon Burger / Irrelevant Beer. This "goon" burger only qualifies as a burger in some chaotic South Park fantasy. It looks like they really dropped it on the floor and called it a concept. The fries? Sad, soggy, barely seasoned, and completely forgettable. Now the best part: the hipster staff at both places. They take themselves very seriously. One of their newer employees, clearly aiming for Employee of the Month, decided to stop me while I was literally grabbing my food and leaving, just to tell me, in a smug tone, that next time I can't bring my dog. The funny part. I was already outside waited for my food away from patrons, then I grabbed my food, and was leaving right away. What exactly was the problem? Did my calm, happy dog disrupt the sacred burger experience? I laughed and said we'll see about that. You don't just randomly enforce a rule like that and talk to customers like that. I've been there plenty of times before with no issue. But apparently, after a very important team meeting about dogs they had just yesterday, they have decided that, even "pickup customers" can't have their dogs with them. Mate, you could have just said "hey, can you tie him outside next time?" Easy. Human. Instead, you went full authority mode over a mid burger spot. I won't be going back, not because I will miss anything, but because of that attitude. When people blindly follow rules without basic common sense, it just gets sad. Anyway once again, Brothers Cascadia Brewery. Two minute drive, ten minute walk. Just go.

Gone are the pinball machines which were replaced with a new cozy nook with soft chairs to relax in. They still have several small tables, along with window seating & the stools at the bar, of course, and there are couple TVs around that had different sports on. The gravel patio out back has the same tabletop fire pit & some other patio chairs & tables (hopefully they'll give the patio a facelift when warmer weather comes).

We chose Breakside because they offered cooked food options so we ordered 2 pizzas with our drinks. The flavors were pretty darn good although putting that amount of ingredients on a pre-frozen thin-crust piece of sadness just ruined the experience for us. The pizza was sliced into "shareable" squares vs typical triangles and I thought it was a clever idea until we ate non-crust slices; they flopped and fell apart instantly when they were picked up making it difficult and messy to eat in the end. So with those experiences, just average brewery for a $60 night out (2 beers and 2 12" pizzas).

I also like good chips & coleslaw. I found all 3 here at the Waterfront Taphouse. Yay! (Don't worry they aren't too greasy!). We went here with another couple and enjoyed the beautiful view, even though our table wasn't right next to the window. That is probably due to all the big windows and it's on the 2nd floor of its building. Our server was friendly, and our food came out quickly. Loved the fish & chips, like I indicated above. Why the 4 stars then? My husband, the only one in our party that didn't order fish & chips, didn't love his mahi mahi fish tacos. They looked beautiful but fell short on flavor. He felt they needed more seasoning-they were a little tasteless. He dumped the tiny little cup of salsa on top and asked for more, but he was still disappointed. The fish wasn't salted properly. They also came with "house made" tortilla chips. These were hard and cardboard-like. That's too bad because it's not difficult to cut tortillas and fry them up. I do it at home sometimes. They turn out great. So maybe go to a good Mexican restaurant if you have your heart set on quality tortilla chips. If you want fish & chips though, come here instead of their neighbor to the east (not mentioning any names-you know what it's called). The portions were generous-as they should be for $30. That's the only downside. A little pricey. We shared 2 silk pie slices for dessert. Very dense and dark chocolatey. Good to share-a whole piece is too rich-and I like rich! If not for the fish tacos I would give Waterfront Taphouse 5 stars.

    I am absolutely loving exploring the area around my new home!…read more About two blocks away is Uptown Barrel Room, and I think I may have just found my new favorite neighborhood spot. It's close enough to walk to, which makes it even better. Honestly, every time I walk through the door, I almost want to start singing the Cheers theme song. This is now my third visit, and each time I've had a great experience. The crowd is incredibly friendly, and there's just something about this place that makes you feel welcome. On my first visit, I sat at the bar and met Randi, the bartender. She is absolutely amazing! She knows everyone by name and has that wonderful ability to make you feel like you've been coming there forever. I started with the calamari, and Randi set me up with some chipotle mayo for dipping. Excellent choice! I finished with the combination pizza. At first, I thought the crust was sourdough, but I was told it's actually a bagel crust. Regardless of what you call it, it was absolutely delicious! My second visit was about a week and a half later. I sat at the bar again, and Randi looked at me, smiled, and said, "Tony, right?" Now THAT is pretty amazing! Remembering my name after only one previous visit--and with a week and a half between visits--is exactly the kind of personal touch that makes a place special. Of course, I had to order the calamari again. This time I also tried the fried chicken. And if you're looking for a big portion, this is definitely worth checking out! For my third visit, I brought a couple of friends along. Candace took great care of us and did an amazing job as well. We started with the Italian meatball soup, and it was phenomenal. We also tried the fajita tacos, and they were absolutely delicious. While sitting at a regular table this time, I noticed some pretty impressive accolades on the wall. Uptown Barrel Room was named Best Wine Bar and Best Seafood in 2023, and Best Wine Bar again in 2024. It's always fun finding those little neighborhood gems, especially when you're new to an area. For me, Uptown Barrel Room has quickly become one of those places where you can walk in, see friendly faces, enjoy some great food, and feel like you belong. If you're in the area, go in and give it a try. You will not be sorry! And if you see me sitting at the bar, just come say hi. Apparently, Randi already knows my name. Cheers to discovering new places and making new friends!
