Mellow Mushroom - NW



CLOSED (see comment below) - Mellow Mushroom
1411 NW Flanders St

This is a chain that's somewhat new to Portland.  A pizza place with large menu and casual environment.  It's bustling, but mellow and cheap beer on Mondays!

General Atmosphere:
8 - It can get crowded, so ask your server about playing first.... ALWAYS ask your server before playing anywhere that you aren't a regular.  The place is open, modern pizza parlor style. It closes at 10pm, which can be early for gaming and drinking.

Lighting:
8 - Well lit,  but not too bright. 

Tables:
6 - Smooth laminate tops in varying sizes. Mostly size for 4 people.  With the pizza platforms, large menus and other stuff on the tables, it can be hard to play larger games.

Food:
8/9 (quality/options) - Food is high-end pizza parlor fare. There is a wide variety for all eating preferences. Gluten free and veg are well marked.

Drinks:
8 - Full bar with focus on beer. Cheap deals on Mondays all day.

Meeple score:
7 - The servers are nice, and games don't seem like a problem, but it doesn't scream "games" here.

Hours - Su-Thurs 11am-10pm,  Fri-Sat 11-11

Game nights held as of this post - None that we are aware of right now

Sorry I didn't get any photos of the restaurant interior!
