Very nice dive bar. The bartender was friendly and did good service. The food was good. Enchiladas and chicken wings. Both really good but the wings were the best. Need to get out here more often. read more

A little of a drive if you're not local, but a real good time out here! You know those places where "everything is good," but you don't believe it--no, everything is good here. Fish and chips, brisket, chowder...it goes on. House-made I'm sure and BIG pours. What else can we ask for? Siri (sorry about the spelling) is great and kind. They are just wonderful, patient and go at the speed of you. Looking for a local place to make your home or just passing through from the island, check it out!!! read more

Club Meeting @ Lighthouse, 1800 hrs. The server double charged me 13 May 2026 for a beverage I already paid at the bar and when I pointed this out to her, she replied in a condescending / talk down tone stating "Next time tell me you are doing that..." I replied in a normal tone that it's all about customer service and how poor it was. One of the rudest server I've ever encountered as a paying customer. I will never patronize this business again. read more

The Lighthouse is a fantastic spot with a great throwback atmosphere. The steamer clams are amazing, easily a must-try. They've got good TVs and pool tables, making it a solid spot to hang out and catch a game. Even though it's a bit out of the way, this is a bar I'd definitely make a point to go to -- great food, drinks, and vibes all around. read more

I stopped in this past week on a Thursday night at 7 pm it was not busy and was very disappointed when we went inside the older lady server seemed flustered. When we inquired about a seat she just squeezed her way through our group of four to do something at the front of the establishment. Which I have to say is a weird set up and not very friendly atmosphere. So we sit outside to not be in the way I guess. One younger lady brought us waters and emphasized she was not a server. Ok. Cool. It took another 15-20 min to get the server over and when the older server lady asked for our drinks my little brother asked what kind of fountain drinks they had and instead of quickly listing off a couple she just said they are all on the menu. Rude. Ok. Off to a terrible start.the entire time ordering the lady had a rude attitude and tone towards us. I finally decided then I would not be spending my money at a place that seemed to not want me there. I left but the rest of my party stayed for what they said was good food. I don't care how good the food is if your wait staff is rude. I might give it a second try but we will see. I would not recommend coming in when it's busy because if the service is terrible when it's dead then l it probably will be worse then. read more

Update: returned to give them another try. We had dinner and drinks on a Tuesday evening and had great food and great service just like before the unfortunate event. Hoping they stick with the wonderful servers and bartenders we know and love. read more

My friend and I were coming off a trail and had lunch here. The staff were so, so friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu. I loved the decor which had layers of cool stuff. I was impressed that they had so many house-smoked meats. The turkey sandwich I had was just delicious and perfectly flavored. I look forward to coming back next time I'm in the area. read more

Great spot to stop on your way back from the pumpkin patch, or Sauvie Island, generally. Yummy fish tacos (what I usually always get) great tap selection, plenty of seating and fun nautical theme. This is definitely a place to chill and be patient as food coming out takes a while even when it isn't busy. We ordered a BLT and biscuits and gravy and it took 45 minutes during a non-busy time. read more

Holy smokes the Pork enchiladas are not only visually stunning, i mean absolutely gorgeous they were delicious. Their fish and chips are great , their Ruben is my normal goto but this pork enchiladas was better than i have had in the Portland area. Yes the server was friendly, professional and fast even though the place was packed! Parking lot was full, tables were full but the staff made the rounds and were awesome. read more

I always look forward to grabbing lunch at this half dive bar, half restaurant on the way to Scappoose. One side is cooler, darker and basic, with a long bar on one side and tables scattered around the rest of the room (the bar part); the other side, where I like to post up, is brighter, with more windows and warm wood tones. Way more cozy. Looks like the menu has changed a bit since I last visited; breakfast is only offered on weekends, so this last time I had the chipotle chicken tacos which had a very nice subtle zip to them. Great flavors and good sauces but alas the chicken was dry and a bit overcooked. Service was outstanding though, as always, and I'm sure I'll be back. The vibe is low key but inviting and the drive past Forest Park and the St John's Bridge alone is worth it. read more

I drove out here past the Saint John bridge on the highway, 30 to meet a friend. I had never heard of this place, but he said it was a quiet place to have a nice visit. Upon arriving, I was really charmed by the decorations on the inside. Fairy country cabin. We ordered the special for that day. Being a weekend they had homemade biscuits! They were the best biscuits I've had in a while. Light with a crispy exterior, so buttery and delicious. We got the country fried steak that came with fried potatoes and your choice of eggs. The scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly and the country fried steak was homemade and so crispy delicious. The service was pretty good, considering our waiter was the only one working our section. She was super busy, but we were taken care of. I will definitely come back here and try some other of their delicious looking eights. Well worth the drive. read more

Stopped by here tonight finally. I pass it all of the time and it always seems pretty busy. The service was good and the food was good. It did take a long time for the food to actually make its way out though. I noticed that with all of the tables. It's a nice place to stop and have a drink if you're in the area. I will say that my nephew loves this lace and is here all of the time. read more

Our bartender/server was great! She gave us some history about Linton that we never knew about which was the kind of thing we like to find out when we're trying something/somewhere new! It's a great "hide-away" bar if you're from St. John's or even if you're just passing by. Great food! I would give the place as a whole 5 stars, but the food is just 4 stars. It's not horrible food, just not 5 stars. You know what I mean? I look forward to another runaway date here! read more

Came here for a second time. We ordered the Ruben sandwich (which was killer), cheeseburger with fries (make sure you tell the server how you like your meat cooked), beef nachos and the fried chicken sandwich. All the food we got was very flavorful. The nachos came out cold and the server was very receptive and immediately corrected the issue by having them remake it. They came out the 2nd time hot and delicious, so no knock on them for taking care of it. Overall, we will be back. read more

Great food, great vibe! This place has that perfect neighborhood bar feel -- the kind where everyone seems to know each other, but newcomers still feel totally welcome. We had the pork tacos, fish tacos, and poutine, and everything was excellent. The tacos were packed with flavor, and the poutine was a fun twist -- made with crispy tater tots and cheese sauce instead of the usual cheese curds. Honestly, it was a nice change! Drinks were solid, and the service was super friendly and fast without feeling rushed. It's the kind of spot you want to hang out in for a while. Definitely coming back! read more

We were in that area, picking strawberries and doing our weekly walk, and it's time for food-to-go picnic as part of our ritual pandemic couple activity. We search for the nearest restaurant and Lighthouse was our choice to go. Ordering was very easy. We ordered the Crispy Fish-wich and the Reuben Sandwich, both came with house fries. Both sandwiches were excellent! DH noticed that the corned beef in the Reuben was extremely favorable. He speculated that the beef was prepared specially at the restaurant. Sure enough, checking the menu, it was revealed that the corned beef was house-cured corned beef. It was fantastic! My crispy fish-wich was about 4" thick, contained colesaw and special restaurant sauce. Luckily, we always bring knife & fork with our picnic bag, that we were able to cut it in 1/4's (so was the Reuben), so I CAN finger eat it, since my mouth doesn't open 4" wide! It was a messy task, but this is what desperate hungry people do! When the food is messy, it must be tasty . . . and THIS WAS! We were too pre-occupied pigging out on our sandwiches, we left very little plus most of our fries behind for 'leftover dinner' pig out! (Note: when planning a picnic, make sure you have packed with you cold bottled water from home, and extra water (doesn't have to be cold) for rinsing off your fingers! They come in handy, when messy eaters get all over your fingers! I'm not, just sauce dripping at everything. read more

My dear friend took me here today. I'm recovering from knee surgery. The service was amazing! The waitress was so attentive and so very kind. I live in SW Portland and it's like a 30 minute ride , but! I'll be back. I had the French toast breakfast. Perfect in every way. My friend Patty is from Boston and she connected with our server! I say this is a wonderful place! read more

I love this place especially for their brunch. I do miss movies on the TVs as now it is all sports which is kind of lame.

So finished up a round of golf at Wild Wood. Beautiful course by the way. Then headed down to this restaurant. The food is always very good, and the employees are very friendly but you do need to allocate some time . It can take awhile to get your food. But the being said it's a great place for a meal. read more

I had heard the hype about the fried chicken... And I love me some good fried chicken so I thought I would check it out. I went around 2 PM on a weekday in between the lunch and dinner rush. This place is located just west of Portland in the industrial area. When I entered I saw a large group of people in the bar all sitting at the same table but there was no one in the restaurant. From the front door straight back is the kitchen and part of the restaurant and the kitchen were filled with smoke and it smelled like something was burning. I almost found it comical that nobody was concerned about this...I thought the kitchen may be on fire until I saw a man in the kitchen that didn't seem concerned. I stayed around approximately 10 minutes before anybody showed up. I was just getting ready to leave and the waitress showed up, apologized and told me to sit wherever I like and she would get me some water. She also brought me a menu and I took my drink order for an ice tea. I was the only one seated in the restaurant. My mind was set on fried chicken so I chose the fried chicken breast sandwich which I ordered with tater tot's. I also ordered a side salad for an additional five dollars. Wow I was sitting there waiting I noticed how does the flash and kept things were. There was food on the windowsill as well as spiderwebs in the light above the table was coated in dust. I catsup bottle top was extremely dirty.... underneath the lid and the tip. It didn't look like this place had a thorough cleaning job for a while. While I was waiting the waitress and a cook we're on the deck outside my window smoking... That was attractive. You would think that they would go outback or somewhere where the patrons could not see them. Also the locals and regular started trickling in and heading to the bar. This is definitely a place with a lot of regulars when they get off work for the day. The bar was getting full but the restaurant was empty except for me. It took me approximately 17 minutes to get my order and I did not get my salad ahead of time. The salad was caked in chopped pickled beets with a couple cucumbers and a pile of lettuce. They should've called it a beet salad. The ciabatta bun for the sandwich was amazing... very soft and tasty. That chicken breast was not very large and definitely did not fill the bun. I could tell it was cooked in dirty oil and the coating was burnt around the edges. It was greasy. They were also pickles and raw onion. I ate part of both because I was hungry... But I definitely do not have plans of coming here again and other than it being in the historical building... There really isn't anything else special. Oh and in case you were wondering they no longer serve onion rings or a couple of the other things there are photos of on Yelp. read more

The food was great, friendly server and good service. We had a long table at the front window with a nice view of the green cliff/hillside across the street. Lovely early evening feast! read more

The food was shockingly better than I expected and we had to order a second smoke sandwich to go so we could study that mind blowing delights of it!!! The Ambiance is cute rustic sea dog hide out style. Jamie our server was above and beyond friendly, fun and informative. You might think locals only or trucker stop given its HWY 30 Linton location but it's a worth the drive from Portland kind of welcoming fun place with great food! read more

This is just based off the food. We come here a lot and love every one who works here. Sharon, Siri and Layla work their tails off and the food has nothing to do with them. That being said I'll post pics of the fish and chips and my husbands Philly cheesesteak. The fish and chips was soggy and more like frozen fish sticks. Very tiny portion for way too much money. The Philly has no flavor and the meat was chunky, chewy and almost not edible. The fries are always good freshly cut and yummy I feel like there food is a hot or miss, but not always bad this was just one of those big misses. read more

Absolutely love this place. They have the best burgers around and friendly staff. I always go here if I want a good burger

Awesome wings, great brunch and the service is always on point. If ya like a divey feel with great food and people hit it up.

At the risk of creating so much demand that I have to wait for a table, this place is a hidden gem! We sat in the bar and ordered happy hour food. The Calamari and Brussels sprouts and wings were so good that we ordered more of each, there were 5 of us sharing. The only drawback for me was RC cola read more

Love this spot! Service is always amazing in the bar, food is super yummy and the scene is fun with lots of light house/ship deco.

A friend invited me to join them for dinner. As I often do when going to a new to me restaurant, I read reviews ahead of time and made sure there would be food items that I could and would like to eat. Having read reviews and knowing that most places are understaffed and overwhelmed, I kept my expectations in check. Was service a tad bit slow? Yeah. Took about an hour after ordering to receive our food. It was middle of the week, around 6:45pm when we ordered. Once the food was delivered, it did not disappoint. I got the nachos without any protein. They were scrumptious and only the very last chip got soft. I call that a win! I was quite impressed. My friend got the pulled pork sandwich and a bowl of chowder. They enjoyed both of them. I think that if people keep their expectations in regards to timely delivery of food to one's table, in check, then you won't be disappointed and you will have a lovely time. read more
