Paymaster Lounge — Restaurant in Portland

One of my favorite places, nothing says summer quite like drinks on the paymaster patio. Or any season for that matter, it’s heated! It’s a bit more pretentious than other dive bars in the area like Yur’s or Joe’s, the staff are polite enough but a little bit more curt and direct. They aren’t rude, but they consistently seem slightly annoyed. The vibes just feel slightly hipster and pretentious, it’s hard to place a finger on. But it is well loved for a reason. The vibes are unmatched in NW. I love the mystery grab bags in the vending machine and the outdoor pool table and Pac-Man are a great touch. They stopped carrying 4 buck tall boys of tecate though, which was a bit of a bummer as it part of my go to. Modelo will do, but it’s a few bucks more expensive now. Food is pretty standard pub grub, nothing crazy but satisfying. Still a great place, and one of my favorites to bring people to from out of town. The patio is also dog friendly, so...

We took the order which was wrong again and left. Definitely planning on avoiding this place in the future. Also to top it off they only refunded the food cost and kept the tip....

Just entered for the first time today and I was blown away. Such a quaint little bar with so much class and variety of foods, it's hard to find something that doesn't sound good. Many vegan and vegetarian options and meat options (as anywhere should). The customer service is second to none. Immediately greeted upon entering and helped within seconds.

The gentleman behind the bar helped me get a tasty local beer from Pfriem and then I had to check the menu after seeing someone else's vegan nachos! I had the vegan queso and it was incredible. Have to come back and try the chilli and hot dog as well as many...
