About the most disappointing "distillery" experience I have ever had. It's back in a bar that looks…read morelike a dive bar. They were servicing beverages and the "golfers" at the same time. All this leads to a weird vibe - I had to ask "where is the distillery tasting?" And was shocked to find this is the place. Oh well, on to the tasting. That was not great. The Hogshead Whiskey was ok but nothing special. Billy wheat whiskey would be a good mixer but that's about it. And the monkey puzzle is aptly named. Because it had this monkey puzzled about what the heck it was. Certainly not a good whiskey!! Before I left I found out there was a Billy rye. Now THAT was the redeemer. So much so I left with a bottle.

Over the course of our 1.5 hour visit, I had several small pours of various porters and stouts that I had rarely seen elsewhere, let alone on draft. My date was excited to pick from several sours and ciders on draft. Ah, variety! At the bar, Ryan provided us with great company and service. We enjoyed some conversation as we surveyed the spot. Despite seeming like a little 'hole in the wall' spot, this place has plenty of seats if you want to bring your friends. On the wall are photos from Gresham's history and development over the years. Looks like theres a booth and a couple seats outside, ready to be enjoyed, now that the weather is warming. We'll be back.

A few things have changed quite a bit since my original review. For one, Tony's is under new…read moremanagement, and the current owner is a truly wonderful, friendly, likeable guy. Secondly, my wife has started working a few shifts here and there, so I've been spending a bit more time here, and my opinion of Tony's has improved significantly as a result. It's still a cash-only bar, but the place has started to take on a Cheers-esque vibe, where everybody knows your name...and each other's, as well. There's a regular crowd of quirky characters from all walks of life who, like stray cats returning to the house that feeds them, can be found here at almost any given hour of the day, and usually hanging out with one another, in some configuration. Drinks remain cheap, and strong, and the bar is much better stocked: even some uncommon cocktails that you can't get at other bars can be mixed up here, such as my favorite, the Rusty Nail (using Drambuie, which few bars seem to stock), so even old curmudgeons like myself can be accommodated. In short, Tony's is a neighborhood bar that has finally started feeling like one, and that's a welcome change. I'm told there are plans for renovations and new features coming in the foreseeable future, which will hopefully will be well-received, and bring in new faces, to join the ragtag band of scoundrels (myself included) that have begun to call this place home.

NOTE: If you are looking for my review of Tony's Garden Center on SE Holgate, please type into the…read moreSearch Bar "Tonys Garden Center Portland" and if you scroll down you can find it. But this review is for Tony's the Tavern, not Tony's the Garden Center (it is easy to get them confused, like I did). First, the pros: 1. They have very cheap drinks. High balls, low balls, medium balls, beer, they've got it, and they'll get you drunk without breaking the bank. 2. They have Ms. Pacman and the joy stick is in good condition. I think it was just a quarter to play. 3. The pool table is small but in good shape. I ran the table off the break there on February 15, 2020 and immediately retired from pool. So this is a good bar to "Go out on top." 4. The jukebox is cheap and has a great collection from the 50s to 70s. However, if anyone from the staff is listening, can you PLEASE add back "Little Spanish Flea" by Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass? Now, the cons: 1. It is unlikely you will run into anyone that has a full set of teeth. 2. They do not have any of the ingredients to make a Schlitz Cocktail. I asked for one and the bartender had no idea what I was talking about.

But Mr. B's took the cake for dessert and left no crumbs! The server who served us Steve was absolutely a sweet funny genuinely kind guy and talked with us welcome us in with a brilliant smile and made us feel right at home! The cheesecake was creamy, the right temperature not to cold not too hot and it even had these delicious yummy flakes on top and tastes fresh and tasted real like real food something we don't get too often in California anymore. The ambiance was calm, happy, friendly sweet with soft natural lighting, it was so sweet a.
