A real taste of Portland from an insider: a stiff drink, spicy grub, and maybe even a little naughtiness. (Nothing too sleazy, yuck). Think of them as the 3 basic elements of a good night out.
Heather Dougherty: In addition to what others have said, I'll add that they have a spacious game room w/ pool (2), shuffleboard & pinball. Also, great artwork for sale.
Avery Pack: I could mention the great drinks, the late night pizza window, Karaoke from hell, and all, but SINFERNO on Sundays...that's all you need to know.
Sean Anderson: If you enjoy Mexican food and live in Oregon City you know this place is an institution. It's cheap, extremely delicious, and easy to miss. Don't forget to ask for the green sauce!

Chazz Madrigal: Funniest staff in a cool neighborhood dive. Awesome jukebox. a pbr and a Jameson for six dollar special everyday all day make this joint a must

Darrin Quillen: It is what it is: an OLD bar, est. in 1902. Don't let all the motorcycles hanging from the ceiling fool you, the service is consistently friendly and the drinks well made. People's prices too!

Meg Hanson: Make sure to step in, take a good long look around and UP from the middle of the room. Make your way upstairs to appreciate the alcoves and views of this space.
