    It's probably the same general idea.

    Closer to this maybe?

    Obviously there are a lot of variations on shuffleboard.

    That's pretty much it. Gracias!

    Just watched a video on YouTube. I dig it!

    Went for the first time tonight and really loved the space and feel.

    And surprisingly, I had a fantastic burger. Really juicy with great toppings and a nice, firm bun. I'd go back just for the burger but it's a great bar as well.

    Was service good Pete? we haven't went in several months because service had gotten so bad you had to flag down your waiter for drinks, to order for your ticket.. to pick up the ticket.. it was a hassle. hopefully they have gotten that taken care of

    Service was great.

    Very small crowd, however.

    Thanks Pete. Might have to give it a another chance.

    I've never had problems at Saints. Has been my go to bar for a while

    It's a late-night crowd. The burger was spectacular when I tried it; as good as any in town.

    Pete, was there pub trivia? We've played trivia Tuesday nights at Saints every week for basically the past year. I think when league starts back up it'll be hopping again. And we love Saints and always have great service there.

    No, was early Monday evening.

    I learned that they are starting to have DJs on Monday nights now. Probably more for the late-night crowd, i.e., those of you who may be up for drinks until closing time on a Monday night. Doesn't really work for my current life situation.

    Pretty sure they've got a drown night on Mondays as well.
    I'm a little too old for that.

    If the OCU kids had a late nite bar, it would be this one. It is interesting how there is "real choice" in the Plaza with Saints, Empire, The Mule, and the dives.

    And also the fact that Saints feels like a neighborhood bar. For some reason, McNellies never resonated the same way with me.

    I dislike this. Saints is always nice during weeknights because it can actually be quiet. A good place to watch whatever weird, random TV program is on, and have a cocktail.

    I enjoy live music, but have never been a fan of DJ's in bars.

    I have not found my replacement "Saints" in Portland, and I miss it dearly.

    DJ doesn't always have to be a laser lit electronic party God. It can just be a guy with a few crates of records, 2 turn tables, and a mixer.

    I haven't been there in a couple months, but the O Bar was doing this. Just a few crates of records and a turntable. However, the guy was very attuned to what was appropriate for patrons. That would be the factor for me.

    It strikes me that Saints is trying some new things. Some of the moves are good imop. Some are not. Ditching the small plates is a loss to patrons. I used to really enjoy their lamb pies and such. Now, if you are hoing in for food, it is most decidely a entree. The quality is exceptional but it does bump the ticket up from the get go.

    I don't think the DJ gets started until later. When I was there it was a little too quiet.

    According to my doctor, Saints went under contract and sold this past weekend to the people who own Kong's and Goodtimes. If its true, I wish the staff the best. The place was on a slow, down hill slide however. A friend of mine described it as becoming "a sadder version of Cheers". lol

    Also, they really could have done better by playing up the UCO angle. They had Jazz nights and such, but there was a real opportunity there to turn that place into an OCU relevant institution. Such ideas were squandered opportunities by the owner.

    According the the owner of Kong's and Good Times, they did not acquire Saints.

    Said they were trying to work out a lease deal with the current owners but it fell through.

    Saints was open this weekend and is now serving Krows Next BBQ out of their kitchen, which is also used for catering.

    They still have a really good weekly jazz show on Thursdays (saw Spunk Adams there last week and he was excellent). The bar itself, however, has clearly gone downhill and I'm afraid it's only a matter of time, which is a shame because it was a great spot as recently as six months ago, IMO. Not sure what the heck has happened since then.

    Good. Not sure what they do fits the vibe of Plaza.

    But something does need to be done at Saints. It was kind of a sad scene the last time I was there. And had no food, said the kitchen was under "remodel" but I didnt see any signs of work being done.

    Agreed! I was slightly sad when I heard the rumor. Josh, the former bar manager has moved on. I am not sure who has filled his place. I will give it another shot. It used to be our neighborhood bar.

    Sad to hear that Saints is no longer. The space was in disrepair the past few years and seems ownership had lost interest. Was one of my favorite places to frequent,

    RADBAR?
