We were planning to give Green Lantern Tavern 2 stars, but settled on 3 because the service was…read morefriendly. Our biggest disappointment was the turkey, bacon, avocado sandwich. Since the menu didn't indicate it was grilled or served hot, we expected a traditional cold sandwich. Instead, it arrived hot, which quickly wilted the lettuce to the point that we removed it. The ciabatta roll was also underwhelming--it was soft throughout and lacked the crisp, chewy crust that ciabatta is known for. The tater tots were just okay and seemed a bit overcooked or possibly freezer-burned. We were also surprised to see a charge for splitting a meal. We rarely ask to split dishes because my husband typically eats much more than I do, but it's the principle that bothered us. In today's dining environment, charging an extra fee simply to divide a plate feels outdated and unnecessarily nickel-and-diming customers.

Nice place to pop in with friends for quick snacks and drinks. The servers friendly and attentive…read more Drinks were good and so was the food. A side of Tater tots was a big basket. The pretzels appetizer was a couple of med 4"-5" pretzels with a couple dipping sauces that you choose. The steak bites are breaded (wish that was in the description ahead of time) and the cook was hit miss. I ordered medium rare. Some bites were medium but still very tender and juicy. I chose the Thai peanut dipping sauce. It was very good but also had a bite so if you don't like heat you may not want this choice. The tots and leftover sauce were tasty enough that they went home with me. . Got in just before the horde.

Then, they kept getting our orders incorrect. I wondered if it was because it was a loud environment and it was hard to focus on getting orders right or, it also seemed like they were understaffed for the large amount of people that was there. The food was pretty good but nothing to write home about. I had a huckleberry lemon drop which was really delicious (and surprisingly strong for a lemon drop!). Came here on a summer Saturday evening and while it was pretty crowded, there were still tables available and any wait times were very minimal. There are usually live bands playing here on Saturday evenings and it's a nice social environment, but don't expect fast service here.

The cocktail menu is creative and imaginative, with drinks that are just as fun as they are well-made. What really sets Blackthorne apart, though, is the people.

They create such a welcoming atmosphere that it's more than just a place to eat or grab a drink--it's a place where community happens. If you're looking for great food, excellent cocktails, and a business that truly values its customers, Blackthorne Pub is absolutely worth a visit.

After finishing our meal, we waited another 10-15 minutes with no sign of our server. We eventually had to stand up just to get someone's attention so we could leave. Maybe it was just an off day, but based on this experience, I'd have a really hard time coming back. If I could leave less than one star I would have.

We found the staff here very friendly. It's just your standard dive bar but there was no lotto at the time we were there, but they're trying to sell so it may be back eventually. We didn't care as we were more interested in poutine fries and cold beer. They have a couple couches here too so we decided to sit there. Glad we did because we were able to chat with locals who joined us (who also happened to know relatives of mine who grew up there). The food was good and I liked that it was a little different than what I usually see here in Portland. We decided to return another day for dinner because I needed to try the lobster mac n cheese melt. Yep, it was as good as it sounds! We sat at a table then and there were lots of locals at that time who were super friendly. This was a nice spot to get to chat with new people and enjoy just some solid food and drinks.
