    This is a neighborhood bar in a strip mall. Could use a little spiffing up. Had the burger (plain.) When I was asked if I wanted onions I asked back if I could get them saute'd. YUM! But was not told it would be $0.25 extra. Shame, 'cause I would have said: "OK make mine double!" I like it when I'm charged for sauted onions because then I can expect the real thing (or else!) :-) The burger appeared to be hand-made and not a frozen-stamped patty from Costco. WOW! That's unheard of these days. Really "old fashioned." Came with one of those extra small bag of chips. SIGH! Everything is priced ala-carte. If you go for a more expensive burger then you'll get the fries.

    This place is okay. I have eaten here a few times and the food isn't anything special. The food is kind of plain. The food isn't bad but it isn't very good either. I feel like I can make their dishes at home.

    Why would anyone keep going to a restaurant that they clearly don't like? Force of habit, apparently... I , on the other hand, actually do go there for the food - simple fare, but plenty of it, and a 'spaghetti special' that would easily feed two folks of normal appetite. I normally take half of it home - two meals for the price of one! Cleary's is the 'go-to' choice for my wife and I when we want a night out, close-in, no-hassle parking and available seating - rarely have to wait to be seated. The fact that it is right up the street from our business, CrowningLori Hats (product placement!) is a major plus, too. Most of all, however - and more frequently - I enjoy their breakfasts. Quick service (normally), good selection, crisp hashbrowns (a must for me), and low-priced Specials. If 'oldies' backgrouind music at low volume doesn't bother you, you just might find the clean, low-key atmosphere of Cleary's to be to your liking... just tell Julia (with an 'a') that Kevin sent you...

    Tucked in a strip mall and comprised of 2 storefronts Cleary's has been a neighborhood staple for at least 15 years. It originally opened 1/2 it's size as just a typical neighborhood bar... but due to success double and opened a dining area for all ages. There's lots of crap on the walls to look at- including a homage to I Love Lucy and Elvis... and old classic vinyl covers run the perimeter. But be warned if you're from out of state... they may get confused as to why your Date of Birth on your ID is on the "wrong" side. (Uhh... It's Washington, that's where it is on everyones!) Be prepared to do some explaining! (Ok... so that probably was just a fluke thing... but I was still caught off guard.) They have typical bar food and a full dinner menu. Typical brews on tap, full bar, and RC cola (which I didn't even know was still around.) Everything on the menu is pretty solid and consistently good with each visit - worth a trip if you're in the neighborhood.

    Dunno what happened, but this place has gone downhill. The last three or four times my family has gone, we left promising each other we'd never try it again. How do you screw up bacon and eggs? The last time, I ordered the once-amazing Chicken Fried Steak and actually left 2/3 of it on the plate. It was flavorless and greasy. Completely wrong on so many levels. Service is slow as molasses and the food is beyond bland. Cleary's, wha' happened?!

    My family and I have been eating at cleary's for years and today we were rudely sent away because my wife entered the restaurant with a Starbucks coffee in her hand. This is the first time we've encountered this type of reaction from any restaurant in Portland. We definitely will never be eating there again. Do yourself a favor cleary's and try to retain the loyal customers you already have before you lose them all. Also, you should re-think your policy since you are the only establishment in Portland that sends away business over someone's wife bringing in a coffee. All over a coffee really??????

    When it comes to eating, napkins are probably not something that most people think much into; but as a child, they were my saving grace. For YEARS I use to line my pockets with napkins and nonchalantly slip all the food I didn't like into them, only to promptly flush it down the toilet or stuff it to the bottom of the trash can after meals (Shh...don't tell the starving kids in Africa!). I had this process down to an art, and for all my parents knew...I was eating my dinner like a good little girl. This lovely memory crosses my mind whenever I have to go to Cleary's. As I glance over the menu (praying that it changed), I wish nothing more than being able to revert back to my younger days and bring back the ol' napkin trick. I am trying my hardest to find something positive to say about this place, but it is proving to be difficult. If my memory serves me right, the chicken strip salad was tolerable (meaning no napkins were involved)...but seeing as I have been a vegetarian for 9 years, I am kind of S.O.L. on that option. I suppose their plain salad is pretty safe, but a plate of lettuce is really nothing to write home about. Everything else semi vegetarian friendly is deep fried and/or pocket shove-able. Overall, something about this place really creeps me out. Maybe it is the bazaar decorations that range in themes from Sesame Street to Elvis Presley, or maybe it's the freaky Cher albums I somehow always get stuck sitting by. Whatever it may be, I didn't like it as a child and I really don't like it now. If you like gross grease food...ignore my bias ways and see my sister's review below. If not, have a napkin handy if you ever find yourself stuck here!
