By Lucy Hammond

Located in the eclectic Belmont neighborhood, Duke's Landing, 2715 S.E. Belmont, is just that. From the moment you walk in, you feel as if you're in the comfortable, relaxed home of a friend.

Duke's Landing is named for the owner Trey McNulty's English Bull mastiff Duke whose laid back, friendly personality sets the tone for this dog-friendly establishment.

Duke's Landing has a menu focusing on all your favorite home-made comfort foods. Everything from meatloaf to fried chicken with all the trimmings is available, as well as many choices for vegan and vegetarian patrons. Their affordable fare, including breakfast served all day, is made from scratch on site. The outside patio offers an ideal stop for a meal, or refreshing drink, when you're out for a walk with your favorite four-legged friend.

Duke's has Comcast Sport TV, two pinball machines, Foosball, free Wi-Fi and free live music Friday & Saturday night. Dingo Dizmo the clown presides over the Monday night, all-ages open mike from 7-11 p.m. All styles of performers are welcome.

So if you're looking for a place to hone your act with a receptive audience, Duke's fits the bill. Duke's is looking for all types of music and entertainment for future bookings. In the process of obtaining a liquor license, Duke's also offers a location for private parties or gatherings. The 25x50 room is a cozy option. Owner McNulty, a Portland resident since the '70s, looks forward to meeting you, and all the new friends he and Duke will make this spring and summer as the neighborhood drops in to get acquainted.
