Respectfully..."you get what you get & you don't throw a fit" is how I like to explain this location I tip well, I keep to myself & roll with the different "vibes" that enjoy this bar. I'm happy to co-exist... HOWEVER, Arley* was the most unwelcoming this visit than I've ever encountered. Unfortunately, I'm sure my words will fall upon deaf ears. She's been working there since dirt was discovered. A Crypt Keeper, if you will. I refuse to be belittled & made to feel small by a grumpy grinch, ESPECIALLY while I'm continuously tipping well above average. I'll be back. I'll continue to patronize the bar. I'll be adjusting my gratitude where I see most fit. My name is Kelsey

Everyone was out smoking when I drove up but I wasn't intimidated-folks were friendly. Clearly a cozy, familiar crowd. Patrons obviously know each other and care for each other. Love that vibe. I always hate to read when others knock 'locals' on here - to me, that's a sign of a great hangout. Had the inexpensive chili dog for lunch - 'twas tasty. Erica was awesome.

Used to be the best shuffleboard place in town. Now the angsty bartenders with a shit attitude have…read moreruined the place. My father brought me here to play shuffleboard when I turned 21. The bartender took our food and treated us poorly over a few whoops and hoorays during our shuffleboard session, then got angry about us being excited by video poker. This place is not for people who want to have fun any longer. Hopefully the owners realize they're losing money due to shitty management on a friggin' Friday. How do you stay alive as a business in this era without caring about all customers. Not just the regulars you go out the the smoking section with. Btw this bartender told us that all of their tequila was the same product refilled by the same bottom shelf liquor. That was weird. I love Portland neighborhood dive bars, but this place was a selfish shit show.

It's sickening... the drinks are poured well usually a nice chill atmosphere- usually.... idk what was goin on but clearly the older lady woke up on the wrong side of the cave. I ordered a Bloody Mary~ the basic bitch drank around noon time, it was not the best but very good in the sense I knew there was plenty vodka in there.. anyways I'm upset in how this lady treated me (us) how she talked to me was more like attacking~ I'm vaccinated & I understand some places still want u to wear masks etc but what didn't make sense is that she only asked me about my mask (as if she were pissed) after she made me my drink.... which also does not make sense considering I was seated at this point literally grabbing my drank to chug it & gtfo of the hostile vibe range ~ ultimately I was being nice & respectful as I have always been.. treat the janitor as u do the CEO etc etc & being at a dive bar in se Portland I assumed there was going to be no judgments therefore was baffled at how she was towards me ~ the way she chucked my change at me & all of the above* I got big titties but I thought these are suppose to make people happy ?? Anyways anyways considering that I feel discriminated against to say the least~ I'm clearly half jap~ oh btw I'm the girl who had her hair ripped out on surprise at Ilani casino by 2 different black 'women' obvi some hater shit/ racist since they were calling me white bitch the whole time they were on my silky, straight, beautiful, Japanese hair. The friend I was with is part black so it was weird & completely unfair how they decided to target me ?? To sum it all up ~ ive had the worst Stop Asian Hate awareness month(s) & this just topped it off Disclosure~ I am very proud of myself for remaining as positive as I am, even throughout this review believe it or not Overall~ it's a chill super dive spot.... will only be back during closing shift

It may not be 'Cheers', but the corner bar where everyone get to know your name is the Starday Tavern! This watering hole offers licks that on any day can be Rock, Blues, Folk or Country and the feel is comforting, laid back and inviting. This clean, comfy and relaxed community driven dive offers you name it in beers (either bottle, can or draught), liquor and beverages from some of the nicest behind-the-bar folks you'll ever find anywhere! While on our last visit to Portland some pals and fam from the neighborhood invited us to join them on a visit to Starday and it was thoroughly enjoyable! Starday rate a 4.6 on Google and 4.2 on Yelp for good reason. This old building and its interior décor take you back to yesteryear of the good old neighborhood bar. I'm not a bar fan, but next visit to Portland, I'll be back!

I have several reasons stacked up as to why - I am highly allergic to…read moreHops and Pot so getting stoned and tossing cheap beers back is not for me, nor is smelling it or people doing that since... yeah thanks no. A lot of dive bar food is made with beer whether the menu says it or not and it is usually just a tragedy. I get it - drunk folks do not care what they are eating but the menu is about the same at most places. A friend wanted to attend a Shakespeare interactive play here. Since it was starting at 7pm and I live in Beaverton I was not going to have time to get over here and eat so I looked up the bar online. I was curious at the Mediterranean food but also very happy since that is not made with beer. My friend arrived before me and grabbed up perfect seats. We realized it was going to be a full house so we had better order food which was super easy to do. Can I also throw in that on their wall behind the bar they have chips you can just grab from the bartender... FRITOS, which are one of my favorite things. But thank you - just that... I was not drinking and just having soda with the show and some food but I could genuinely see having a few drinks and just grabbing one for a small snack. Our food, even with the bussel busy Friday night, came pretty fast and all the folks taking orders and serving were super friendly, wanting to help. I wanted the chicken gyro but they ran out so I gave their falafel a go - the falafel was a touch on the over mark but was still pretty delicious and I opted for a 'side' salad which I thought was strange to upcharge $3 for until it arrived and was INSANE... so huge! I got a side of onion rings too which were ridiculously good...seriously some of the best damned rings I have had and I could not stop eating them so that, my friends, was dinner... I had to take most of the gyro and salad to go. That salad ...later...I had an avocado I needed to use up at home and with their dressing. It was incredible! Amusing thing is that there is a vegan restaurant my friend had wanted to try near here and we did. Had the WORST experience and this was perfect... when we are over here this just earned itself a place as a go to spot for me. I might even drink here sometime HAHAHAHA!
