  Very delicious and hydrating water!  Much needed after a nice warm day in Portland
  
  Also great vibes with live music, good prices and a pool table!

  A decent cocktail, a righteous nacho and friendly service. A casual, somewhat grungy, neighborhood/local bar. Good tunes. Did not rate higher because they truly have the worst unisex bathroom that we've experienced in years. Nothing like being hit with urinal smell, wondering how long since the john had been cleaned. That said, not a bad place, and we respect their connection to Renner's.

  Cool Hole In The Wall With $0.25 Pool Tables!
  
  Friendly Service from the bartender who seemed like a pretty laid back kind of guy makes transactions simple.
  
  I really liked the $0.25 pool tables and the dartboards in the back room!
  
  Looks like they have live music since there is a stage in back with speakers all over... That would be cool to see too, but alas we found this place our last night in Portland......
  
  They have some decent BBQ chicken wings, though I wasn't a fan of the spicy wings...
  
  All in all this place is great for what and where it is...

  Happiness in Being Hidden!
  
  I love these places.  They've been there forever and yet hardly anyone but the neighborhood (and Yelp fans!) knows about them. There's something sweet about that, and the HH is a real gem.  This review should probably be a 3.5 star.
  
  First of all, this is Portland to a P. I love that.  Plenty of veggie options on the menu, funky cool staff, pool tables(free!), good beers and drinks(go on Whiskey Wednesday!), and a great laid back atmosphere.  It's a little worn inside, but a classy dive should be right?  Worn doesn't mean dirty.....it's a well kept place for sure.
  
  The menu is small, but big on flavors.  Burgers, sausages, sandwiches, and salads are on offer here and they're pretty darned good. I was told the veggie burger was pretty amazing.....I wouldn't say amazing but pretty darned good.  Great soy based vegan patty that actually stays together!  Fresh veggies and cheese and a decent bun with chips for $10.50......I'm good with that.  You can upgrade to fries, tots, etc., but for another couple bucks isn't worth it.  There's also a nice veggie hot dog option as well.  For the meat eaters they use local Zenner's which is cool.
  
  Great place overall and very good service. They go the extra mile here....they even made me a fresh squeezed lemonade when they ran out of iced tea!!!  You order at the bar, and with a small kitchen they can get backed up in a hurry, but in a place like this you shouldn't be in a hurry anyway.  You come here to relax and hang out with friends.  
  
  Extra Tip:  Background music can get pretty loud......just be aware!

  One of my favorite bars in Portland. It's a very relaxing spot. They do have a stage for bands, etc, but I've never been in for that. I come in Sunday's after work and it's very chill. Plus they have industry night on Sundays. The beer selection isn't huge but it's enough. They've got something for everyone. Lastly, the food here is phenomenal. I love their nachos.
