  Both visits were transcendent experiences. The Irish stew the first time was the definition of hearty and the waitress struck the perfect balance between attentive, engaging and informative. We had the place mostly to ourselves on a Sunday evening and the warmth of the wood stove and the subdued lighting had me in Ireland.
  Second time was after a week paddling down the Columbia and the Spicy Sausage, Cajun Red Beans & House Specialty Rice were just awesome with a cold pint of porter. The location is a bit remote but only adds to the mystique. This place is a treasure.

  Only complaint was my wife's catfish fillet was absolutely tiny, like literally 1/3 the size of a normal fillet.
  That aside the meal was awesome!  The (small) catfish was excellent, her dirty rice and black-eyed peas were freaking amazing (and plentiful).
  I had the fried oyster burger and it was very good also.  All told with these two meals and 2 bloody marys we were into it $40.  A little high but who's their competition and the service and views were really good.  We would return in the future.

  This place is amazing! The proprietor used to run Pine Street theater in Portland and the National Cash Register building bar (now McMenamin's) in St. Johns in Portland. There is awesome art and show posters everywhere, funky tchotchkes in display cases, a deck overlooking Grays River with an orange cat that lives on it, and the service was wonderful. The waitress made a point about asking for dietary restrictions so she could recommend specific foods or have the cook make them differently.  She also poured a mean black and tan.
  The art and funky houses around the bar make it worth a stop. Gnome garden sheds, curlicue wrought iron, and a Victorian/steampunk tower across the street that is basically a display case for old bathyspheres, engines, and tools.

  $7.50 for a slice of pie and ice cream.  But it was homemade, large enough to share and very, Very good.   The service was friendly and had good conversation with us about the area, history, etc.  - I'm glad we stopped there.

  Just stopped for pie and coffee. Very funky and interesting decor. Nice view of the river from the deck. Very friendly and attentive service.  Thought the tab of $15.65 for two slices of pie and two cups of coffee was quite stiff.  The pie was homemade and it was good.
