I promise I don't hand out 5 Star ratings to everywhere I go, this place was 100% worthy of all five ⭐️Bartender was excellent, remembered our drink choices after the first round, accommodated changes on the fly no probs, and had a cheery fun attitude the whole time!The live band was.....unexpected (we had no idea).....and so freakin' awesomely badass!!!They busted out retro Rap and just nailed it. Awesome energy and stage presence. The dance floor was packed!! So much fun!!!Thank you all for an amazing night!

Awsome place great bartender, she was very helpful. For what we ordered, I gave the food a 4 because the house salad was just leaves and ranch. The Buffalo wings were awesome and cooked to perfection. The meat came off the bone easy. My only advice is to give that wing some heat, and you got a damn good wing.

After 20+ yrs in the Tri, I finally found a decent bar! It's not quite Cheers but it'll do. Thank you!

Food was awesome. Husband and I split a burger and fries. Service was quick, the beer was cold, and the burger was very juicy. The fries were good too.

Great bartender, but the atmosphere suffered on a Tuesday night. Loved the pictures from the movie Elf.

Didn't get any food so can't comment on that. Plenty of seating played good music. Bathrooms are a little rough I heard a girl tell her friend not to sit on the seat. Bartenders were friendly & quick.

We ordered something called a sparkling IPA and just an IPA. When they were given to us, we asked which was which and the bartender responded, "they're both IPAs" I asked which one was the sparkling one and she looked at us like we were from another planet. It was very busy but she didn't seem to care at all about getting us the right thing or explaining what we had misunderstood with the menu item. It might be that I'm getting too old for that type of place, but it was just a bunch of drunk "kids" spilling their drinks everywhere and a bartender that seemed to want to be anywhere else. We were there on a Friday night as a frame of reference.

Great customer service. Awesome food. The only reason I will not give 5 stars is the restroom floor was absolutely GROSS. It needs a good cleaning.

If you're looking for nightlife, then pool, darts, a dance floor, and a wide variety of stage acts make this THE place to be in Hood River.Standard bar fare, with really decent burgers. The curly fries are better than the tater tots.

Been here many times as a local and service industry professional. During a live music event tonight, obviously the bartenders were stressed, but that seems to be expected with a venue bar.Male bartender in plaid was just rude. Extremely rude. Not sure what his problem was. He works at a busy bar. Maybe it was a particularly bad night, but he made me uncomfortable with how rude he was; I seemed to be an inconvenience by doing what profits his livelihood.Later, I asked for a double from the female bartender. As a bartender myself, I know how many seconds equal a shot (1.5 oz). She poured for about 2 seconds, which is less than a standard shot. I asked her about it and she said it was a double. I asked the other bartender and he said he wasn't there to see it happen. I paid the full bill anyway.Anyway, all around disappointment for a night in which I had to pay $5 cover for a show that ended at 12 (I arrived at 11:35). I won't be back.

Friendly and quick service, excellent comfort food. Great for watching the football game of your choice.

Simple food, okay service, good ambience (pool tables, projector for the football game, could've done better with the audio though).

I enjoyed this place! Had some late night snacks and drinks! And the servers were very friendly.
