Great dive bar ( Keno cards at every stool) with the cheapest breakfast in town, pretty much ANYTHING for less than $5, and If you go to bed hungry after last call, no worries, Â since they close at 4am, and open for breakfast at 7am. The fact that I was their for last call and pancakes should not cloud my judgment, or at least what I remember of it should not!
This place reminds me of the Beacon Hill Pub in Boston, Â but with older scarier patrons that frequent the establishment and play way to much video lottery ( guilty as charged)
They have a pool table and on Sundays its industry night, everyone in the biz with Monday off comes in, they have a DJ, and toothless AARP hotties drinking cheap rum and coke dance alongside 20 somethings who just got of the late shift. Â Its like Mos Eisley Spaceport, a scene straight out of Star Wars!
I love it!
Morgen is in control of the bar most nights, and will take care of you, even if you are from out of town!
Oh, they also serve food!!
Believe it or not, the cheeseburger and tater tots are considered to be among the best in Hood River, and I can say that at 2 am they tasted up to and possibly beyond expectations.
The 'Carpet' is as far as I can tell, an institution in Hood River, and if you want a friendly place to throw one back, meet locals who DON'T windsurf, and sit outside with a smoke AND a drink, then belly up and tell 'em I sent ya!
