  It's a dive.  It rocks. Looks and feels like a local hang out.  An owner?  Long time employee??  Someone name Kentucky Thunder was having a birthday party that night and they were decking the old place in purple balloons, tie-dye, and UV reactive fun!  They encouraged us to return that night and we wanted to, but we were staying in Newport.  Too far to walk after partying =)
  
  The food is extremely cheap.  Ya get what you pay for, but damn, I love me some tots and tenders with an ale.
  
  My friend had two glasses of wine, I had two craft beers (yep....they have'em), and we shared tots and tenders.....less than $20!!!
  
  Go!  Enjoy!

  Cleaner than any dive I've been to. I'd actually eat the food they make and while I was there, many did. Fancy big screen plasmas show cheezy b movies and the decor does not disappoint. Alien blow up doll sitting on a PBR lamp next to a "tasteful" nude oil painting, anyone?
  
  Not too many folks here on a Summer Tuesday night and that bummed me out, as I wanted to mingle with the lokes. I enjoyed paying $10 for 3 wells and the option to pass the time with pool and pinball.
  
  Maxwell's across the street had a dance floor with strobe lighting if you wanted to pair this with a more active night on the town...

  A classic dive bar in central Lincoln City.
  Decent draft beer selection, including Dead Guy.
  They have a $3.50 bloody marys on Sundays, with the second one free, special.
  Haven't had the food, but it looks decent. Typical bar food selection.
  Good jukebox song selection, including a bunch of metal like Danzig and Megadeth.
  Basically the counterpoint to Maxwell's in this area.

  I'm a sucker for bars that have a distinctive character built up by years of patronage. Old Oregon Tavern has that in spades. I popped in there looking for a chill place to find a late dinner after a concert at the casino. The gal behind the bar was quick with a smile, heavy on the pour and a pro at the grill. My wife and I ordered cheeseburgers which came with tater tots and all the fixins, complimented by two pints of Fat Tire served in iced down glasses.
  
  The Old Oregon Tavern has a great tap selection with a mix of good microbrews and a few standards.  while we were there the two pool tables and pinball machines sat empty but the two other patrons had the jukebox rockin'. Highly recommended if you're looking for a straightforward, friendly dive to hang out in.
