The Clinton Street Pub

After hearing from everyone and their dogs, i swing by for the supper here last evening to try their dog treats so you don't have to. My humble opinion is, in your first bite you gonna see that it lacks necessary crunch and taste. Literally it tastes like nothing. No after taste too, but a bad smell in your mouth. Also, I recommend using cutlery because that bad smell gonna make your hands smell bad too. Texture is soggy. Like it is interesting. It wasn't a bad dish. You not gonna throw up or something. Just nothing good about it too. Tho, sweet lady in the counter was understanding and helpful. Refund got issued immediately and I'ma receive my money back to my bank account in 8 business days.

What can I say about this place? This might be the only Dive Bar in all of Portland that has a solid vegan option on the menu! The veggie dog is *amazing*. I don't know what kind of magic they use when they cook it, but it is the most delicious veggie dog I have had in all of Portland, and I am serious about veggie dogs. There are also no less than 1 million bar actual dogs the frequent this place, and they are fluffy and adorable. I haven't tried the dog treats yet, but the dogs seems really like them! And obviously I won't try the dog treats, because I'm vegan. But I highly recommend the veggie dog. It's just a basic veggie dog with basic condiments however there's some magic in how they cook it here.

This place is ripe for a reboot. It's filthy, cramped, and the staff seems pissed off to be working. Maybe they should just gut it and start fresh. That's probably the nicest thing I can say about it.

They have beer and a pool table. Neither are worth writing home about on their own, but combined they make for a good time. Don't forget your quarters!

This place is incredible! However, I'm gonna give it a 4.8 out of 5. Mostly because their soda water doesn't have enough bubbles. I mean. When you think about it, shouldn't soda water have the right bubble to liquid ratio, or is it just me. At any rate, this place is great! Just can't get over the soda water. Man... like. Ugh. When someone finds the right place to get soda water, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD LET ME KNOW!!!

This place is delightful but avoid bartender Shelby. The rest of the staff is delightful and it's a wonderful space. Avoid when she works unless you want a rude experience.

A proper local (neighbourhood) pub has not only a great beer and drinks selection but snacks. As an Englishman, it was ace that different flavour crisp packets were available. Also Al is a superb bar tender. Highly recommend this place as has outdoor seating as well.

Best nuked burritos ever, and one of the top 3 pizza spots in town. Will be back for dinner.

Make no mistake, the White Castle burgers at Clinton Street Pub are truly a meal fit for king.My gastronomic experience with these delightful morsels begin when my bartender/ server/chef ask me if I wanted these two classic American entrees with or without cheese. How could I say no to artisan Wisconsin Cheddar?Within minutes of me placing the order, the two cheeseburgers arrived at my seat expertly plated in a red basket with black and white checkered paper along with a warm and courteous smile. Included, a copious amount of napkins and something that this humble patron was not expecting: small packets of both ketchup and mustard. Truly, this is meal that makes the most common customer feel like nothing short of royalty. On close inspection of my meal I found no faults. The buns were fluffy. A golden brown hue caressed the exterior while the pristine white middle painted a picture of a virgin marble castle in my mind. Gooey melted cheese oozed from the sides while still sizzling beef, probably wagyu, rested inside on a belly of perfectly caramelized chopped onions. After dressing the burgers with the aforementioned ketchup and mustard I took a bite. "Is this heaven?" I thought to myself. "Will I ever experience a meal like this ever again?"It wasn't till I paired this edible masterpiece with the champagne of beers and some Jameson whiskey that the answers to these questions came to clarity. No.The remarkable culinary experts working behind the scenes at Clinton Street Pub have once again proven themselves to be a force to be reckoned with in the Portland fine dining scene. All for the low low cost of $8.

Some go to church on Sunday, some prepare for the busy week ahead. I head to The Clinton Street Pub. This place exudes barroom excellence. They keep the Millers cold and cheap. The second-hand smoke wafts in and out as the regulars come and go, a reminder that Clinton Street Pub serves as a home away from home for few, providing solace for many. If you're looking for a no-frills watering hole to get a drink and feel like a true stoic, head on over.
