Nice atmosphere and decent sized sports bar on the inside, large deck on the outside which makes this a great summertime spot. Bar still closes at 10 but they're going to stay open later soon. They have around 10 beers on tap, and a good dispensary Oregon's Finest right around the corner!
It's a great Sports Bar TVs everywhere employees are great the food is great I found a great location low sitting on top of the roof nice view and is located in a great location
Great place to watch the game. Soooooooo many TVs. Decent bar food and great choice in beers
My friends and I watched "the fight of the century" /*sarcasm*/ here. Although the fight was a huge let-down, On Deck was actually a great place to watch it. The beer was decent (I'm sure many places have a much better selection - given the locale) and the TVs were all positioned where everyone could comfortably watch.
However, the thing that gives it 5 stars in my book were the tater tots. Those things were surprisingly good. They were cooked perfectly. Crispy on the outside but not dry on the inside. I had tots at other "fancier" places in town and these were the best.
not my kind of place, drinks were okay, prices were fine
Come for the atmosphere and drinks... Large roof deck. Not super quick, so tough to squeeze in a one hour lunch.
Great atmosphere. The day I went, the service was slow.
Service was great, food tasted good. But we both got sick from the food. We had burgers.
Nice deck. Food was bland. The beer was warm. I wasn't impressed.
Attentive service, awesome patio, great TV game management (putting popular games on most viewed TVs) and great food. Definitely my favorite neighborhood sports bar.
Great under the stars space. Good food and friendly staff. Overall wonderful place for an event. Cheers!!!
Service was terrible. Food wasn't good. Beer selection was mediocre. Only good thing was lots of TVs
The bar itself should have a modern makeover. One of the staff was wiping down some tables with a strong bleach. they shouldn't be spraying toxic chemicals in the dining area. it affects people's respiratory systems & was burning my throat as i was breathing. also, the restrooms smelled like urine. They need to clean it better with safer products & ensure that it has no traces of urine smell. iM not returning until these things improve.
Awesome location, good amount of TV's. Menu needs a facelift.
Great location in the Pearl District. Love that it is on a upper level patio. Was busy and took a while to get our food/drinks.
It's inexplicable that people go here. Are you too tired to keep walking?
Love this place, I went everyday after work and the staff always takes good care of me!!!! Love them
I've been here several times, and have always had a great time. Service has been friendly and quick. Menu is great bar food, including the best nachos I've had in a while. Like the local beers on tap. The outside deck is fantastic in the summer and I've spent many a day hanging out with my friends here. My high school reunion is scheduled here this summer and I can't wait.
Rude staff, bad food. Not sure how much clearer I could be about saying that I don t like IPAs or asking for a citrusy, light beer. You either have something like that or you don t. Don t poor me an IPA after I ve explicitly said I don t like them. When a customer asks for a recommendation and gives you clear guidelines as to their preferences, follow them or just be straight up about not having something they ll like if that s the case. OR if they ve clearly expressed that they didn t like your recommendation and could only get a single sip down, poor the beer out and comp it. My god. Rocket science.
Fun place to go on Trivia Night. Also a great venue for outdoor rooftop seating on a sunny day. Foods pretty good too
Good atmosphere. They have the Juicy Lucy burger, with cheese in the meat. Besides that it is kind of expensive.
Other than BWW, this has to be the best place to watch sports
Friendly staff, more than enough HD TVs to cover all games, tasty food, great drinks, affordable prices and easy access just off the streetcar line; just a few reasons five stars are deserved. If you don't believe me, go see for yourself.
My alumni groups have been coming to the On Deck in The Pearl for several years for game viewing and networking. And I've met friends there periodically. So when I decided to do a fun, informal gathering for my birthday, retirement and new business, I thought of this great venue and its many screens, good food and brews, staff and patio. When I discovered that the Red Sox were playing the Cubs at Fenway on the preferred night, the ideal situation became an easy choice. Over three months I worked with Dani to plan it.
When the evening arrived, the weather held up, about 40 people showed up over a few hours, the staff was great, the food was tasty, the pitchers of Oregon brews flowed, and the Red Sox won! What more could I ask for?
Thanks Dani and the On Deck crew. You made a special night memorable.
UPDATE:
We were there Wednesday August 29th
@5:57pm.
I see the reviews are good but I still wanted to say that the waitress/bartender that served me did not want to ring my food and drink up during happy hour. It was 5:57pm. Happy hour is 3-6pm.
That s the first bartender that was not happy to ring my order in last minute. I was a little unhappy but I still tipped her. Like a gentleman.
Side note the caesar salad was room temp and tasted like straight mayo. Take a look at the pic.
One of my go to sports bars downtown Portland. They open early for football on the weekend with a nice brunch menu. They have the MLB package, plus I like the look and location of the bar.
Pretty good food. Usually reliable for burgers, but nothing more. Somewhat overpriced, i think, but about usual for Portland.
Well, there were several issues.
First, the bar was out of some liquors, so the drink I ordered was not what I would have. The drink I did order didn t warrant the price it terms of quality.
Second, the waitstaff was short or rushed and seemed confused about by our order. Water was only brought when requested.
Third, the deck portion of the bar was overcrowded. Customers were moving chairs in tables without direction to accommodate their various party sizes which made for a very awkward and cramped space. So cramped that I ended up having a negative interaction with another guest.
All in all I think there s a handful of other more welcoming rooftop bars around the city that I would recommend first.
I wish there were more rooftop bars in Portland to take advantage of the nice weather.... when we get it.
I realized that I have been going to this place for years and I have always been pleased with my experience but never wrote a review. Where do I start?! This place has tons of TVs for sporting events and they are on it when it's game time. Their food and drinks are not only great in taste, their prices are reasonable. The staff is always welcoming and attentive to my need whether it's an order for extra sauce (which I always need!) or a different game on a screen. And that DECK! Summer evenings hear are beautiful and a must!
Large space. Great lighting installation. Nice outdoor bar space.
Amazing place to eat. I recomend to anyone who want to have a good time with family while enjoying sports. Customer service was sublime in creating a great experience.
Awesome patio on a summer day but this place always seems glum during the fall and winter. Food is great and it's nice watching a game here.
