Lollipop Shoppe — Restaurant in Portland

The service was terrible. It was a special POC queer event, but there were really no staff members who were POC, and they acted as if they were hostile. Very rude you know no Smiles on their face know you know cordial interactions just down to the business almost not looking at us and ignoring us most of the time very slow bar service even at times of the night when there was barely anybody left in the club it was like four or five guys and they're all acting like they were so busy it was three bartenders and many times it was not that many people ordering drinks the crowd started to thin out the crowd start to thin out due to the bad bar Services before midnight so by the time I was getting my final drink it was really only four of us at the bar trying to get something to drink yet the bartenders couldn't even handle four orders so the atmosphere was only good because they had some good music playing and there was some awesome people of color dancing and making Vibes great but the staff...

We tried the fried chicken sandwich and the catfish sandwich. The chicken was good enough. Not the best I've had, but much better than some places. The sweet and savory was good. The catfish sandwich (which I came for, major craving happening) was just not good. Everything was soggy and fell apart.
