Landmark Saloon — Restaurant in Portland

Great spot on Division for live music and drinks. The bar itself does not make food, but there is a food cart in the yard outside that sells BBQ stuff. So...cool if you like bbq, s* out of luck if you don't. There is often live music playing here. One of my friend's band plays here off and on, and it's always a good time. The interior is a bit small for shows (and hot as hell), but still really fun. The bartenders are always nice when I head up to order. The outside yard is huge--I mean, they have a food truck back there. There are a ton of outside tables and benches to sit at. In the winter, there's an overhead tent pitched to keep you dry. There's an area for corn hole, I think. There's also seating in front of the bar by the street. A good spot to head to with a crowd of people looking to get drunk...

Visited because of the great reviews... BUT, bartender was terrible. Although he was NOT busy (except talking to a couple of friends), he seemed to ignore us the whole time we were there & had to put unnecessary effort into getting served. Also, didn’t stir the drink after preparation, so tasted like soda water. Difficult to wave him down & get something to stir with. Also, couldn’t get my check & stood for way too long, a few feet away, staring at him talking before he even glanced my direction. Finally, got the check but he promptly turned away & continued ignoring us. After signing & making an effort to say “goodnight”, still ignored & wouldn’t even respond. HORRIBLE first impression! Because reviewers like it, will consider trying again someday, but it will probably be awhile. Very...

Joined a friend for her birthday here. No non-alcoholic beer options, which seemed really bizarre in a beer town. And a super meat-centric menu without even a token vegetarian meal. My husband had a chicken salad sandwich, I got pimento cheese with half a sleeve of saltines. The food itself was fine, even if pimento cheese and saltines isn’t really the complete meal I would’ve hoped for 😂 It’s fine for a hipster dive (I think they have patio games in the summer but there is no air flow on the patio. Some fans out there would’ve been chef’s kiss) but the menu is pretty limiting to the different types of folks who’d like to go there even, say, just to celebrate for a friend. We left with our drinks money still in pocket - there are more inclusive...
