Review of: Jade Bar

Read review on Judy’s Book.

Listen to James… he knows his stuff. Not only did he turn me on to the amazing cocktails at Sauce, but he pointed me in the direction of Jade for $2 beer and well drink happy hour that runs until 7:30 during the week and all night on Sunday.

And the beers – it’s the first bar I have been to where every one is a winner in my book: Alaskan Amber, North Coast Scrimshaw Pilsner, Deschutes Black Butte Porter and Mirror Pond Pale Ale, Scwerk Hefeweisen and Bear Republic’s amazing Racer 5.

It’s big, yet small… Yes, it’s three levels – but the upstairs loft and main floor with the bar are small and cozy (I didn’t check out the basement).

Sure, around 7:30 on a Friday it started to get crowded, but as I sat back with a good book in my hand at one of the bar level tables, the people just turned into a quiet din. It’s a great place if you want a balance of being in the midst of everything while simultaneously being a little detached.
