What People Are Saying About R Bar

In Short
The two veteran bartenders/owners invest quality time in customer conversation, regardless of whether they're a neighborhood or after-work regular. Fellow bar and restaurant workers also make up a large part of the clientele, as can be seen by the long shelf lined with empty bottles of Fernet, their favorite poison. Past the art deco mahogany bar and cream-colored, embossed walls, a small open space features casual seating with vinyl cube stools.

A must stop when I am in town. Miles of smiles and friendly locals - sports friendly, or not - best bartenders and a real place, not artificial in any way.

I have yet to have a bad experience at the R Bar. The music is always on with DJ's spinning. The drinks are great and strong. The bartenders are always working hard and staying upbeat and friendly. The crowd is beautiful and great. Happy Hour or Peak Hour, this is a great place to be.

Great bartenders, atmosphere and people(before the 12th drink!). Don't let the outside appareance fool you, you have a lot of regulars and a great jukebox. Can get a bit crowed on the weekends, it's a perfect during the week bar to get your drinks on! Big time Oregon Ducks bar!

Save Money:
They always stock $2 cans of the watery Olympia beer, which ironically boasts, "It's all in the water."
The Extras:
Four TVs, each with their own receiver, provide sports-viewing options. Later in the evenings, comedy movies steal the show.
Save Time:
Lucky Strikes and Kools are available for $5, but head outside to smoke.
Know Before You Go:
The bar generally opens in the afternoon on weekends, but hours vary by each week's game schedule. Call ahead for details.
