Belmont's Inn - Buffalo Wings - Sports Bars Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Visited the area and it was, expectedly, raining. Our group needed a spot to relax after a mini hike, and this spot was great to grab some beers at noon on a Saturday and enjoy conversation. Drinks were good and the food menu looked good as well. Definitely would like to come back! read more

Service was amazing. I believe my Bartender was named Kira? Drinks were excellent and the vibes were great. read more

So I was served a beer by the female bartender. Everything was fine. Then the long-haired male bartender came out from the kitchen and called me a "f-g." So yeah. That's this place in a nutshell in so called "liberal" Portland. After a few minutes I confronted him on it. He knows what he said but accused me of "eavesdropping." Excuse me? I simply happened to hear the derogatory slur you uttered. Then he said "I don't need a white guy telling me . . ." and got racist about it. Yes, you can be racist without being white. (racist AND otherwise bigoted in this case) The original bartender took my beer and I was not offered a refund or anything for standing up for myself after harassment in their establishment. I took the high road and left and will take my business elsewhere, to more enlightened pastures. read more

Hi! A friendly tip, if you serve food and it's requested to reheat it (after being served dry and cold) it would be a courtesy to accommodate for your guests. A waitress aggressively shoving reheated food across the table is certainly not appropriate nor appreciated, at minimum. The dark, long haired server who is insecure with her life should seek therapy before projecting her insecurities on her customers. I'm sorry that we anticipated service and that your establishment was not able to provide. There are far better establishments when it comes to mediocre dive bars, avoid at all costs. read more

I was ready to give this place 5 stars for convenience when nothing else on Belmont was open, service that was friendly and fast, and very decent bar food. I really appreciated the huge portion size on the salad. But 3/4ths of my way into the BBQ bacon cheeseburger I found a long hair in the sandwich. Very sad. Killed the vibe. Way too busy to speak to wait staff about it. I have mixed feelings because the food was otherwise good. read more

Belmont's Inn - Horrible place to spend your money at - Sports Bars Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I rang in the new year here last night and had a great time celebrating. There was no cover charge or line to get in unlike a lot of other bars on Belmont St. Chill vibe here and lots of laid back people dressed casually playing pool and drinking. There are some pinball (?) machines as well and some other games in the bar beside pool. There was a good drink selection and everyone counted down to the new year! A few minutes before midnight they gave out complementary champagne :) read more

bartender not friendly at all. food and food service was good. Over paid $50 and the bartender knows but she's not telling the truth she just hangs up when she doesn't want to talk about it anymore. We have called and talked to her twice about this, just says its not her problem. She never ofers to get manager Hope to hear from manager read more

Spacious bar with a couple of pool tables and games. Good service. It's chill, a bit divey. I enjoyed my time there.

I can't say enough about the Belmont Inn. When you turn 21. You want to find your cheers. Decades later I found mine. Megan! Joseph! Chelsea! And the team are absolutely amazing. From watching games, grabbing a burger or hosting a large group the Belmont is my place. I absolutely love love love this place. It doesn't get any better. read more

I can't after the man/owner of the company reimburse me after the bartender so $50 from me is still employed with the company I came in on one 1/15 /25 she is still employed with this company. This woman needs to be fired. She sold $50 out of my pocket to where the management/owner had to reimburse me every everything that I paid she should not be working in this company. She is a terrible bartender. I was here for 45 minutes and it took 25 minutes for me to even be served. This woman should not be even working at this establishment. I wonder why they couldn't get out of a one or two status on yelp is because of her. read more

I've been to Belmont's a handful of times over the years and it's become a traditional stop on any visit to Portland. It's part dive bar, part sports bar, part local joint - and that's what makes it so charming. The drinks are strong, there's pinball and pool, and plenty of games playing on the TVs if you just want to zone out or be distracted. It's a great place to go solo, as there's always a seat at the bar and the servers are friendly (and make a mean cocktail). Belmont's ain't fancy, but it has the makings of a friendly, unapologetic neighborhood pub and I always look forward to stopping in. read more

Classic bar environment with standard bar food. Just what you need after a long day, a beer and a burger

This place is okay. The issue I have is they threw away my full beer when I went to the bathroom for five minutes. Bar tender dude was unapologetic about it, and didn't offer me another. Also the blonde bartender chick kept skipping songs that we paid for on touch tunes. That's ridiculous, spend money on songs to just have them skipped, not cool. read more

Wow, never going there again. I'm in the service industry and sometimes want to sit at a bar and get poured a drink. This bartender ignored me sitting at the bar. I first thought it was because he was busy and I waited patiently for him to come and ask what I wanted to drink. (You know, bartender stuff). He served a few people that came up to the spot that you order from if you're sitting at a table but it became very clear that he wasn't going to come to me to take my drink order (again, I was sitting at the bar) when he pulled out his phone and hunched over by the register. So I got up, walked the 2 ft to him and ordered my beer. There were two people, including myself sitting at the bar and maybe a dozen people in the whole bar. This is Portland, lots of dives to choose from. I'll go somewhere else. read more

C'mon people, don't diss the Belmont Inn. Thursday night Triva is where it's at. I came here last night for some Community trivia and had a blast!!! The beer was a flowing, the service was nice, and we all had a great time. Sure, it's a dive but it adds to the charm. They offer your typical pub grub, burgers, fries, sandwiches...you get the idea. While the food may be on the greasy side, this place get's 4 stars in my book for having Firestone Union Jack IPA on tap- my favorite! They have pinball, pool tables, a couple tv's for your viewing pleasure, and Thursday night triva-of course! read more

Yup - it's a dive. In fact, it's SUCH a dive that it still smells of stale smoke. Surprising ...and kind of gross. However, the beers were cheap. The appetizers were fried, and I love me some fried...anything. Also, their veggie burgers weren't too bad honestly. I'd like to say any place that serves tater tots, jalapeno mozzarella sticks, and poppers can't be all that bad. But the smell of the old smoke is pretty bad. Yucky actually. Plus, they leave the back door open, while people are apparently smoking outside and I think the smoke by osmosis rushes back into the bar as quickly as they exhale. Maybe, I wouldn't notice if I made this a last stop instead of a first one. read more

The Belmont Inn is a dive but a loveable dive. One of the waitresses/bartenders there (Liz) is incredible. She goes above and beyond and is just friggin' hilarious. The food is typical bar fare and tastes just like you'd expect. Happy hour is cheap and the burgers are big. I've been here on numerous occasions for Trivia and have always had a great time. read more

Popped in one night for a few cocktails. Bartender was nice. Seems like a neighborhood bar. I need to go back and try some food! Prices were okay! Just a little bar to enjoy a cocktail or meet friends before the actual night begins. read more

Unfortunately, this place has gone downhill over the years. The food is not good, the service is ok. People aren't as nice as they used to be. I guess it's more for people who are stuck up but want to look and act as if they are poor or more urban. read more

Dropped in here on a weekday afternoon with a couple of buddies to get together for beer and burgers. Aside from the fact that there's no table service, I'd say that this was a pretty generic experience. And I'll correct myself - there wasn't a waitress, but there was slow table service from a distracted bartender. Reflections on meals - my hamburger was a thin hard patty but the flavor of the burger itself was decent. The dozen-or-so tater tots that came with the burger we're slightly over fried, there could have been been three times as many more. Chicken strips guy thought his meal was just okay. Quesadilla guy enjoyed his quesadilla but said that it was lacking substance. Decent meal for what it was but no rush to come back here. read more

The Belmonts Inn is a centrally located neighborhood bar that is popular with sports fans, pool players, gamblers, stoners, burger lovers, pinball fanatics and friends of daytime drinking. What more could a person want in their local bar? Cheap prices? They have it; $4 micros & meals under $10 They are known for their burgers. I had an order of wings $7 and they were covered in hot sauce and delicious - I will order them again! Most bartenders are very friendly, particularly Bob whom is outstanding! Highly recommended! True story: I'm at Belmont's Inn and they raised all the prices by a .25 cents. I giggled as I bought my next beer that I have never been at a happy hour where the prices went up! read more

Belmont's Inn - a pink car and a bull head - Sports Bars Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Good prices, strong drinks. What more do you want in a dive bar? I had their food years ago and it was pretty much what you'd expect for a bar menu. They had a decent selection of beers and the crowd was pretty young. They have apparently redone a lot of the inside which feels like it maximizes space a bit more than it used to. I think there were 3 pool tables and several pin ball machines. I like that even though it was packed, they still have plenty of seating for a lot of people. The only major reason for losing a star was the service, while friendly, was pretty slow. I wouldn't call them slammed for a Saturday night, but there were 4 people working behind the bar, yet there was a line of around 4 people... there shouldn't be a line with that many people working all at once. They also weren't encouraging the line to break up or paying attention to who was next, so I noticed that someone came in after the line formed and was served at a break in the bar before the line was. Oh well! But all in all, a great watering hole that's close to a lot of other places in the Belmont neighborhood. read more

LIGHTWEIGHT DRINKERS like ME, beware, do not visit this place! So I went to Belmont Inn on Monday evening. The bartender was not very nice, but not rude either. She seemed just didn't care with my existence at the bar. I ordered the Cranberry Vodka because they have a $2 Wells special and it was THE STRONGEST Vodka Cran I ever had in my life. I was buzzing about half way through my drink. I didn't remember the conversation that I had with my loved one there. There were all different kind of people visited this place. My only problem was, this place was WAY TOO smoky. But from now on, I know where to go, when I want to get a super stiff drink. Belmont Inn is the place. :). read more

If the Inn on Belmont were a Super Bowl halftime performance, it would be the Black Eyed Peas and all trillion of their stupid LED lights - annoying, hard to ignore, and derivative of its more talented (bar) predecessors. But it could be worse. You probably won't contract herpes from the bathrooms at Belmont Inn, though I can't really promise that because I am not a medical professional. They serve food, albeit kind of begrudgingly. You have to order food at the bar, and although they'll bring it to your table, they don't like to take additional food orders while they're there. And the dipping sauces come in plastic containers, probably because the dipping sauces are older than Fergie's face. Still, it's better than being the Bruce Springsteen's crotch shot of bars. read more

Well f*** I love a good Bloody Mary but not served with a side of jerky badittitude. No Dice! This could be exceptional bad service by one bartender or a pattern. I've been many times to the Belmont Inn but I've given it it's 4 lives. Read others reviews, determine for yourself.... I loves me a good dive bar, but you know what? Bad service defended by more than 1 worker with excuses that you should expect bad service because of a pattern of bad service be damned in this town. Good dive bars do not equal shitty ass service or getting reflected upon of personal problems towards other customers. Seriously this is a well paid service industry town with 10 others to replace the shitty servicer (and I do not believe in abusing this by owners of restaurants/bars either but geez). This place is dirty, dive-y and reflected of so by the other dive-y desirous souls who seek the same. Hard to find a good dive in this area honestly, but they are around for other choice diving pleasure (read Triple Nickle/ Watertrough/ Ladds Inn/ Mt Tabor/ Space Room to read a few). This place is known for cooler-then-thou attitude of bartenders who will if they choose you just hang and talk around you while you are ignored for your drink. Just remember great pool gaming to be had here for sure. Great cheap beers to be enjoyed ($2.25 Ninkasi brew!) and expect service to leave you thinking that the bartenders job is more difficult and somehow more deserving of shit-giving-to-customers then your own job. That's right take it, love it, and still leave a tip! If: you are a sadist. If: You want a great burger this is a place for one of those. Grrr... it IS tough to find a good burger. If: You want bad service from people that don't care about service or really even have any pride in the business... well, this is your place. For staff with a history of badditude service (see other reviews), you could go for the experience and YELP away about yours. Or you could just skip the abuse. Damn. One of the worst behaving bars I have been to yet... and not in the good way. I will not be back. Way too many other places to spend my hard earned dough, too many other dive bars to give tips to. I do not review this lightly. read more

I would say this place thinks it's a little cooler than it is. It's got the pool tables, and lots of TVs, and I think there's a jukebox. But it's a neighborhood bar that's overreached itself. I sat at the (small) bar and waited too long to order my drink, and then for the bartender to come around so I could order my food. It strikes me as a place that's set it self up as (or has become) an attraction for people who don't want to go downtown. I wouldn't say I hate the Belmont Inn (or Belmont's Inn?), but I don't have too many reasons to come here. I should say that the burger was pretty good. The curly fries were overcooked. read more

I come here to play pinball. Belmont inn is conveniently located close to my house. This is what i make of this establishment: A lively group of people from Gresham, Notorious BIG on the juke at least twice in an hour, the food smells good, I have tried the cheese sticks and I liked them. When I play pinball I need some room. I take a certain stance when I play. My leg goes way out don't ask me why but it works. The patio door is right next to Mars Attacks, which intern causes me to move every time somebody goes in or out. Its not easy playing on the move. I found out the hard way when a woman flew half way across the room tripping over my leg. Don't worry she was ok. I like this place It's not my first choice for a hangout but I will take it. read more

People say this is a dive bar, but I wouldn't even call it that. In my mind, dive bars have a certain charm to their slightly dumpy atmosphere. This place is very neutral with little personality. They have a limited and expected pub food menu and a bunch of beers on tap. Food is cheap and plentiful but not terribly tasty, and it comes out of the kitchen one plate at a time, sometimes with a ten minute wait and sometimes with a 45 minute wait. Wednesday night trivia is its redeeming quality. read more

Disregard my review if you love greasy food and hanging around a dirty bar full of 90% men, mostly over 40. The place is ugly and looks dirty and even FEELS dirty. There is that film of grease that has been soaked up by the dust over the years. When you leave, you will also have that film on your face (minus the dust). Your stomach will hurt cause the food is gross and greasy and you ate way too much cause that is what they gave you. Places that screw up a grilled cheese are no good in my book. It was soooooo greasy and pretty tasteless considering. The tater tots were also too greasy. The fries were just OK. The Belmont Dip was also just OK. If the food was somewhere else, I could maybe deal with it, but between that and the horrible atmosphere, I will definitely not be back. Ever. There are plenty of other places to eat and drink nearby. read more

Isn't it funny how the crappy places stay vividly in your mind? Located here, is Not a dive bar I would ever willingly go into again. So on a night of Bachelorette party hijinks, our drinking Bingo game led us to the door. The guy at the door was cool and I think that was about it. We got a table next to some fishy smelling guy and set about to order the Bride-to-be a drink. This is where awkward takes freaking nose dive south. What the hell is with the random 4 dolls haphazardly stuck to the ceiling?! Avoiding eye contact with the freaky brides of Chucky, we assessed the menu. Meh.. At least there was a selection. It wasn't hard to miss how Mr. Bartender started bitching about "drunkards" after we couldn't tell him how to make an Alabama Slammer. And after he did a little Google action, we got the drink (as a shot) that would make Robitussin taste divine. Our glasses of water (quantity of 3) for the DD's were reluctantly given with a dirty look and deep sigh from Mr. Bartender. Perhaps it was his dolls that were tacked up on ceiling and the bitterness couldn't be contained. Giving the Bride-to-Be a Jager bomb we got the hell out of there. read more

I've spent more money here than any other Portland establishment. Then again, all the fun I had here at "Belmont's Livingroom" did prompt me to sober up for a year... :) BEST burgers in town! Every time, be they beef, chicken, or garden burgers, it's a "Nailed It!" Good fun *because* it's rowdy. BEST pub quiz in Portland on Thursday nights. GREAT place to watch a sports game. read more

Total dive, but if you want normal food (none of that vegan hippie crap) and a STRONG drink, this is the place to go at 1pm on a Saturday. The place is empty with football on the TV, but devoid of hipsters and there's a million pool tables. Service was fast, too! I had a chicken quesadilla, and despite the lack of visual appeal, it was FULL of chicken and not spicy on it's own. Perfection! read more

I had a good experience. However, know this. I was only inside for 5 minutes in order to fulfill a specific task. House shots are only $2. Amazing. And they're generous shots. They have free pool on thursdays after 9 and all day Sunday. I saw at least 5 pool tables. I will be back, at least to play some pool and have a cheap drink. read more
