I was running BikePAC at the time and was also an ABATE officer. There's a picture of my 97 Big Dog hanging on the wall. Haven't been here since forever. I have a very dear friend, also a life-long Biker who lives in Sandy and we set up a lunch meet here. Always nice to visit with old friends and to get out Clackamas County way where the folks there are half way normal. The new owners (I guess they've had the place for quite a few years so not really new) did a nice job fixing the place up while still keeping it a Biker friendly gin mill. And they added food which is nice. The chowdah is quite good. Not the east coast creamy chowdah I am used to but instead has a nice spicy punch to it. Generous amount of clams which is always welcome. Decent prices. Of course they have beer and booze which I sadly no longer imbibe. The waitress/barkeep was nice and attentive. I gather she is the owner's daughter. Always available if we wanted something but otherwise left us alone to chat. I was surprised at how uncrowded the place was. Nice, half way warm sunny day you'd thing there would be bikes parked all down the street. But it was just the two of us and a tiny handful of what I assume are regulars. Of course you don't need to be a Biker to feel comfortable here. Anyone who works for a living like truckers, loggers and so on would feel very welcome here. Not a huge bar but ample seating for a goodly crew of guests. There's ample parking out front for bikes and a (free) public parking lot across the street. Happy to see that this place is still up and running.

It's a nice location with lots of seating, a full bar and dine in table service. We ordered a couple of appetizers, tacos, and a burger. I'm not able to say that everything was good. The appetizers were undercooked. The garlic knots were actually slightly gummy in the middle and the pickle spears were cold. Neither had much flavor to them at all. The tacos and burger were the same. Not served hot, just lukewarm, and lacking flavor. Maybe it was the time of day or just an off day but the entire meal was definitely not worth the price we paid. We likely won't return but if you're looking for a local dine in place I can see this being a place with lots of room to meet up with friends and/or family.

Buyer Beware. I…read moredon't do reviews. But I felt compelled in this instance: I believe Chester's Pub is a deceptive, predatory business. Judging by the raucous crowd on the patio when we arrived, it did not appear staff was concerned about over serving. Yes, it was a Friday night, but it was not quite 7pm. Further evidence to support this suspicion included: #1) The table next to ours having a member pass out, then rally to vomit violently for several minutes (remember... 7:00), which really did not help our thoughts on food quality, which, prior to witnessing that, was mediocre at best. #2) I said yes to the offer of a 2nd drink. Then, before that one was gone, a 3rd showed up (which I did NOT order). Playing the benefit of the doubt (had I somehow indicated I needed a 3rd...?). I went ahead & decided to just pay for that, but when my bill arrived, I had been charged for FOUR drinks, double what I had actually ordered. I felt this was a predatory maneuver: Over serve guests, hoping they won't notice the over charges. It was my first time visiting, so, perhaps this was an isolated incidence, but it appeared that staff perceived it as normal. I won't return. I advise you to stay absent as well.

We got the Mama sweats for the two of us and that was PERFECT for dinner and lunches for the next day. All of the meat was so good and nothing dry. It also reheats well.

The dry rub on the wings was delicious. The chicken thighs had a sort of honey mustard sauce that was delicious. Tri tip was super tender. Cornbread was delicious and not really spicy at all. Service was nice - we sat outside on the patio with the dog and our server brought out some extra meat for the dog to try. For that alone - 5 stars! But the food was definitely worth stopping for on the way home from Mt Hood. We will be back.
