great bar/great music

by baphelps32

I have been coming to The Crown Room for quite a while. The bar staff is great and they serve quality drinks. The sound system will rocks you away and the music bumps. I have read the other reviews and I have to disagree with one thing in particular. The Security is some of the best in Portland. I have seen these guys deal with many situations and they always do the right thing. They have a hard job to do and they do it well. Before you judge security try and figure out why they are in the situation in the first place. Some people can't behave when they drink and you only know half the story. They have saved me from a drunk trying to fight me because i wanted him to leave my girlfriend alone. The new game room is a great addition to the bar. I recommend this bar to anyone who wants to have fun and can act like a grown up. leave your drama at the door and come have fun.

• Pros: fantastic staff, great drinks, great sound
• Cons: none

WARNING* bouncer is a psycho

by CSMobileUser

One bouncer with double pierced ears is a psycho. He assaulted a women and challenged her to fight like a man. That bouncer is so outrageous & unhinged he'll be in jail soon enough. The owner better step up. Some of the other bouncers were relatively professional but that one guy is crazy. See other reviews on this board. CrownRoom is off limits until they hire proffessional security

Why all the hype?

by Shiehk

After reading such great reviews, my friends and I decided to check it out last weekend. Not what we were expecting. The drinks were great, the food was okay, the servers were outstanding... but that was about it. The bouncers were kinda weird, a little pushy. But I definitly won't go back. Boring, no excitement. Needs to be updated to even compete with the other bars in the area.

• Pros: Great drinks
• Cons: Atmosphere, outdated
