we have all things that are good

I love that everyone else hates Jakes place. I love how quiet it is, how cheap it is, how I can go here for a quiet drink, no crowds and not be bothered even by the barkeep. Seriously, if I'm in the mood to be left alone with my girlfriend, WE WANT TO BE ALONE. Otherwise we'd be elsewhere in a crowd. I also like judging the low lifes to boost my self esteem.

I was there the other night and had a really great time. Very nice pool tables, the food was above average and the people, including the bartender were really nice. I'll be back!

This "place" blows on all counts. I've seen some poor excuses for bars before but this one takes the cake. Plus, it stinks like a fart. Really folks, there are so many cool bars in Portland. This ain't one of them.

Shithole

Full of bums and general low-lifes, had some asshole hock a loogie on me while I was trying to have a smoke outside. Complained to the bartender that he might have had a few too many and she waved it off and said, "he's always like that."

WOW.

great time

Great food, burgers are awesome. Full bar, with full selection of micro and domestic beers. Two pool tables and other games. Atmosphere is fun and inviting, big screen for watching sports. Will definately go back.

what a dive, worst food in the area, low class all the way with loser regulars. If you want the skanks oF Portland, it's the place.

New owners have done a great job of fixing up the place. Great place to grab a beer and play some pool or watch the game on the Big Screen! They now have a full bar serving your favorite liquor and cheap food to keep you energized. By the way its no longer cash only.
