Porky’s No More!
Porky’s Pub, long a mainstay of North Portland, is no more. According to Blogtown, it changed ownership recently. The Blogtown piece mentions that the new owner also owns Fat Cobra Video, which has my favorite name of any business ever, and it also says that the Porky’s name was not going to change… but that no longer appears to be the case, as when I drove by today, not only was it freshly painted in a dark green hue, but the name has been changed to URGE.
**as a side note, what’s with the new trend in semi-aggressive bar names, (see Urge and the new Vendetta on N. Williams)?**
Hopefully the new Urge will remain gay-friendly and have a decent bar menu, but that remains to be seen.
Nope it isn’t even close to the same.
Sad to see it change.
The new Booty format at Acme sucks too.
The end of an era….
