ANNE’S SPOT: Upgraded menu, rotating cocktails, live music and pizza at Oregon Express

Anne Kane’s column helps paint a picture in our minds of what you may view at Oregon Express here in Dayton: “On any night of the year, you may see a packed house with a DJ one evening and a quiet acoustic set the next. You may even see a cake decorating class. With the option of private rentals for the community, you could potentially stumble upon a graduation party or maybe even a karaoke-filled room.” She has a lot of great background on this local establishment, as well as tips for parking if you plan to go.
