Chill no frills bar with a great outdoor patio and a free cornhole setup. Bartender was super nice and drinks were cold. Classic bar menu with shoestring fries as an available option.

I love this bar. Great deals on quality dive bar food staples. Good place to grab breakfast on the weekend too. All of the staff are awesome people. If you like it a little rough around the edges and can appreciate true local North Portland culture, you'll enjoy this bar. The mousetrap is like a ductape encrusted hug. Warm, comforting and a little sticky. I never want this place to change.

I love going to this bar, both Phae & Allie are the best. If you want to have a good time go to the Trap :)
