shhh...indie underground

While I am still fairly new to Eugene I found Sam Bond's to be a comforting home-away-from-home type of watering hole, night-spot hangout, independent music venue and more.

Sam Bond's is a like a central point of the, mostly Bohemian inhabited, Whitaker neighborhood. So Indie folk and Hipsters alike seeking refuge from the douche-baggery of the usual college bars of the downtown/university area should find themselves welcome here.

Though with only a small selection of beer taps I am always surprised at the quick rotation of choice ales and have been able to try something new almost every week. They also have full bar, wine and Mead! The staff/servers are chill, patient and full of help and honest opinions. Sam Bond's has a very decent sound system for such a small place (and great sound tech) And are always hosting some form of underground entertainment (usually with no cover charge!) On any given night you can catch: out of town indie-rock bands, local folk acts, jazz groups, bluegrass jams or even solo acoustic artists. And Monday night Bingo is always a blast with their crazy prizes (and crowded! so get there early).

Down sides: 1. The bar seating is a bit smaller than it should be. 2.The bar is small. and can make it hard to make an order once it gets crowded. 3.Groups of people tend to linger around the bar after they got their drink (don't do this. is poor bar room etiquette) blocking the bar and people trying to place orders and also blocking the pathway to the front entrance/exit. 4.did I mention that the bar was too small?
