Lived here for years and never made it here (always a line out the door). Smaller than I expected, but not tiny. Beer was mediocre to good, per Widmer. Chicken sandwich was ok as was the wifes reuben. Very clean, great service.

The beer here is mediocre at best. Widmer offerings are aimed at the public masses. A true geek won’t find any comfort here. Only had a pretzel and it tasted like a frozen prefab bore. The droptop amber was the hottest handle being pulled at the bar.

A cozy brewery tap with booths and a nice bar area. Very friendly service. I had a sampler - and all in all they had 10 beers on draft, that I hadn’t tried before. I sure want to go back.

In the 12 years I lived in Portland Oregon I never stopped here. Wow what am I a fool? Guess I never thought I would move away. So on a quick stop after the North American Brewers Festival. I got off MAX Yellow line and walked 1 block and there it was. Right next to the brewery of which I have been to many a time. Had a old brew pub feel the brick walls and the old and new art work it was just what you might expect. 12 taps going 6 regular beers and 6 off the wall beers that I wish I had time to drink them all. Had a great lunch and the Golden Belgian beer was very nice. This is a great place to stop and one of the quintessential places to hit in Portland. Hell it is as close to the start of Oregon Micro brewing and Portland Beer royalty you can get. To the brothers Kurt and Rob Thank You. The pub has been around a long time the brewery for over 25 years now.

Nice place. We went here to go on the brewery tour which was really fun. I recommend it. You get a free pint glass too. The Halo IPA is great & of course, the Hefe can’t be beat.

A very nice place. Right next to the big time brewing. A great selection on tap. Many things that were not on the site. No food for me this time. But it did look good.

Excellent service, polite rapid and knowledgeable. Good food, well prepared. Their alt was on tap, which I’ve seldom found elsewhere.

Great place for a casual lunch. Service is good, beer selection is better.

Nice place with some great taps and lots of rotating seasonals. Worth checking out, just don’t park on the street.
