“ We were on a time crunch and they sat us promptly and attended us quickly. The fried fish sandwich and oysters were delicious! The servers were attentive even when it got busy right after we got in (good sign!). Highly recommend! ”
“ We stopped here for drinks and apps while waiting for Duck Fat next door, and was pleasantly surprised with their offerings. Rotating local IPA's and cocktails on the menu. Fresh, local oysters are available here, and we also had their deep fried deviled eggs. Those were good enough to make me want to come back here for an entree sometime... We sat at a window area and didn't get to check out the inside too much, but it was comfy. ”
“ Sweet lord, this place is Awesome. Do not miss the Jerusalem Artichoke dip! We stumbled upon East Ender one day when looking for a late dinner and not only was it totally fantastic dining, but the atmosphere was really fun too - Karoke downstairs while we dined upstairs - Plus, did I mention we are non-drinkers and they have awesome Mocktails! A perfect spot for a date with spouse or friends. ”
“ Low key, old school bar with delicious eats and well made drinks. Brussel sprouts were fire and the burger and grilled cheese (made on garlic bread) were both excellent. Loved the drinks, good creativity. ”
“ Sat at the bar for dinner. Got the smash burger, sooo good. One of the best burgers ever. Bartender was super nice great to talk to in between bites. Will definitely be back! ”
“ 3-4 Small raised tables and bar with upstairs karaoke spot at night. Great food, we went because of menu online and it did not disappoint! Fresh lemonade not too sweet and the biggest and best chicken sandwich I've had in a long time!! Very unique finish with the curry mustard. Mom had the Fish Fry and the potatoes were amazing and not overly salty. Server was patient and kind. Will definitely go back! ”
“ Delicious mushroom stroganoff!! Garlic bread was good and fish sandwich amazing!! The waitress/bartender was super friendly and nice. ”
“ Walked in and found this great spot near the hotel we like in Portland. Eclectic menu and some great cocktails. Deep fried deviled eggs were good, dry rub wings also stand out. Service was amazing upstairs considering she was alone and it was nearly a full house. ”
