Northeast Portland

The original bar opened in northeast Portland's Hollywood neighborhood in the 1960s. [1] It "had a small-town vibe, with wood-paneled walls, neon beer signs and a cast of friendly regulars", operating in a building which had screened silent films as Elite Theatre from 1914 to 1921. [2] [3] The building was designed by Roberts and Roberts, and was also later known as Rose City Park and the Rose City. [4]

The bar's menu included soft-shell clams, Parmesan garlic bread, and beer. [5] It closed in 2013, due to arson, and was replaced by a Hot Lips Pizza. [1] [2] Two men were arrested for starting the fire, [6] one of whom was an employee. [7] [8] The bar was owned by Cliff and Martha Hanson, and later their children Jim and Sharon. [9] It is included in Laura O. Foster's 2016 book Walking with Ramona: Exploring Beverly Cleary's Portland. [10]

Southwest Portland

A second bar opened in southwest Portland in 1993, with former Belinda's chef Ross Pullen. [2]
