In Short
Exposed beams and ductwork disappear above a dark, almost cavernous space. Bartenders have to pull out flashlights to check IDs. Plumes of cigarette smoke gather, creating a dense atmosphere around after-work regulars and weekend anti-scenesters. Newcomers may be surprised by the strength of the drinks and tastiness of the food, which includes portobello-and-veggie sandwiches, flash-fried calamari, sweet and spicy coconut shrimp and fries smothered in cheese.

I live just a few blocks away, so I spend many a night here. The service is good, and the drinks are stiff. Nothing super amazing about this place, but the patio's pretty cool.

I have been going to BOG for as long as I can remember it's presence on Portland's famed Hawthorne BLVD. It took a couple years for the hipster scene to attack it... I remember when I could go inside and expect nothing but chain smoking bikers and kick butt hot mama's but they've relocated to Anthony's down the street... Truly I don't care about who hangs out there as long as I can get a place to sit and partake in one of the greatest sandwiches known to man and woman kind.... The Persephone, named after my favorite Greek Goddess. This SPICY, and I mean spicy, meatball sub, is the BEST meatball sub you can find this side of NYC! The beans and rice are incredible! The diversity of the menu cannot be beat, nor can the price and flavor! The fact that I can taste the awesomeness of their food over the thick heavy cloud of smoke, well that right there speaks for itself!
