Where is the Best After-Work Bar in Portland, Oregon?
My dad took me to Hubers the first time over 50 years ago when I was just 10 years old. I remember thinking that it was a special place even then. A few years later I worked downtown and would go there for lunch a couple of times a month and always loved it. Somehow it kind of slipped off the radar in the last several years and even though we eat out a lot we never thought about Hubers. Last night we were in the area so I took my wife there for dinner and discovered that they still know how to serve great food at a great price. The service was spot on and the place has a certain comforting charm to it. (except for the chairs I think those are left over from 50 years ago) you would think they could invest in something more comfortable. I had the ham dinner and it puts Honeybaked to shame, moist, tender and full of flavor and a nice size portion. My wife had the turkey and loved it.

Where can you go to rub elbows with tattooed cuties and business men alike? Why the NL of course. This popular Southeast destination attracts patrons of all kinds, proving that variety is in fact the spice of night-life.

Offerings include local micros on tap, an excellent wine selection, and a long list of signature cocktails, all made-to-taste with the freshest ingredients. If you plan on having a few, there?s no excuse to do so on an empty stomach. The innovative kitchen staff will whip you up a wide variety of eats, from filling nachos and delicious salads with
This is THE place to hang out for last thursday on Alberta but get there early if you want to claim a decent spot outside. The drinks selections are a bit on the sparse side compared with other spots nearby but the place has a decent atmosphere and is popular with the hipster tattooed set.The place isn’t that big and with no air conditioning it gets a bit stuffy on hot summer days. There’s a great jukebox that has a pretty wide variety of choons. A small pool room with a garage door that opens up onto the street. The service was ok, but it’s apparent that the regulars get preferential treatment when it comes to who gets served first when there are a few people waiting and only one or two bar staff working.The food is pretty basic pizza fare that is made in-front of you behind the bar and the smoke blowing from the bar does not make the food any more appitizing.
