The Old Oak

  This is a fun place to go on a week night for a drink with friends. I am not in to sports bars at all but this one is charming with it's vintage take. I like their beer selection. Lots of good local beers on tap and a great variety in bottles and cans. Bartenders are friendly. No food to speak of but they let you order pizza from Third st pizza and they deliver to your table!

  Trendy and cute. I know it's labeled as a sports bar and there are TVs there so you can watch the game, but nothing about this place really screams sports bar. It's more of a classy place. You wouldn't want to wear your old jeans to this place.
  
  The crowd at the Old Oak is pretty young. Linfield students hang out here and the rest of the crowd varies from late twenty-somethings to thirty-somethings. It's definitely the place to hang out downtown. The drinks are good and you can order pizza from Third Street Pizza to enjoy with your crew.
  
  If you want a fun place to hang out for drinks, this is definitely the place to hit.

  Unpretentious, nice bar with friendly regulars and helpful bartenders (as well as a lot of space!)
  
  Check the fridge for tasty specials in bottle. I had several unusual brews that I'd never had the chance to try the first time I was in, and the selection had changed by the time I was around again.
  
  Unfortunately, the food is pretty basic - you can order good pizza in from around the corner, but that's about as far as it goes!

  Hmmmmm.... cool concept; cold space.
  We had a drink here and felt completely out of place.  My first suggestion would be to get some more comfy furniture and make the place a little more welcoming.  It just felt scary when I was there.  I will try it again at a later date.

  It was just ok.... I expected more I guess because it's owned by Community plate and Thistle owners. I read back in May that this would be above Community Plate and food would be served from them to this bar, but maybe plans changed??  It's around the corner from Community Plate. They only have a few bar snacks, so don't come here hungry expecting a full meal. Also a few mixed drinks, but mostly beers. The space is very open, the top was roped off so we couldn't check it out. There is a pool table and games showing on TV's. The bartender looked like he was straight outta Yale or Harvard with his Polo shirt, khaki pants and curly blonde hair! Well he fit right in with this place! The place is decked out in old wood chairs, leather booths and plain tables. My first impression is they ran out of moola to decorate the joint, but that's just me. If your looking for cheap drinks and a place to watch the game... then they can deliver that.
