Bay 13, Portland, Oregon Restaurant Details

Food:

Went there for a Dead Sara concert. It was good, but smaller than what I expected. Anyways, it has a great all-ages space in front of the stage and behind the 21+ bar, not to mention nice staff members.

Food:

Security guy was rude, bartender looked like he hated his job, and the downstairs bar bathrooms looked like they haven't been cleaned since the turn of the century. Get it together you guys, damn.

Food:

Sound quality was great. Staff were friendly and the drinks were reasonable. I will be back.

Food:

Very disappointed with the venue and won't return. Went expecting a theater and a venue focussed on music. As the place filled it turned into an obnoxious bar with an obnoxious audience more focussed on drinking and creating a phony scene than listening to the musicians, If you love playing music, don't play the Star Theater. If you love listening to music, don't go to the Star Theater. If you want a bar scene you can go to the Star Theater or anyone of the other hundreds of thousands of bars in the country.

Food:

From a patron's standpoint, the space was great while drinks were on the weak side. As a musician that just played an event that we packed, I want this place to shutdown. The booker stiffed us at the last minute and paid out $100 for a 5-person group. The original agreement from several months back was significantly higher. This kind of behavior should not be acceptable, so I'm doing my part in hopes that people will avoid playing here. If live music is to be a sustainable form of entertainment, the kind of behavior involved with this place should not be overlooked.
