Henry's 12th Street Tavern Portland, OR
The Upside: You can't beat the quality, variety and cost of the happy hour food menu. Great location, great building and an overall high energy vibe. The beer selection is second to none- 100+ on tap and most of the best micro brews from around the country. Also, the extended hours is a great thing.
The Downside: Service is consistently slow and non engaging. I find sitting at the bar to be worse service than sitting on the patio or one of the tables near the bar. Bartenders are so swamped or something that they never come over to take your order. Very frustrating. You will never feel like a local at this place even if you are there every night. Wait staff will not recognize you and every time I am there, I am sitting next to traveling businessmen from out of State or Oregonians from other parts of our State.
The incredible quality and quantity of beer is offset by the ridulously high price for the beer. No happy hour price for beers, which is tragic because the normal price is out of control. It also bugs me that you cannot order from the happy hour menu from the restaurant. You must be in the bar.
