9 Best Beer Bars near Portland

“This place is fire. Came in and they have sick decor and trivia night The menu has so many wing sauces and they fell off the bone. And OMG the pretzels are fire. The waiters were also super nice and down to earth. It was pretty cheap and will prob come back tomorrow. 10/10 come here.“

“Great atmosphere! Came for pre-turkey day trivia which also was a blanket drive-- good cause! We like ciders and sours so did a flight with Sucker Punch'd and Scorpion Bowl being our favorites! Service was fast, friendly and helpful (the keg of scorpion kicking with my pour so they have me another of my choice, which was awesome). Would def stop in again!“

“One of my favorite go-to breweries in New Britain! Have only had good experiences with the service here, everyone's always very friendly and personable! Great spot for big groups, as it's super spacious. Also, dog friendly!! My little guy loves to join me and my friends for a night out, enjoying his own special dog beer! The human beers are great too with a large selection, highly recommend!!“

“Picked up lunch today and brought it home. Excellent food! The goobkwr was outstanding and hubby loves the jalapeno popper dog. Also got Mac & cheese and the baked beans which I highly recommend and of course the salty balls. Had to also get the T-shirt too. Best food in the area. Makes me miss summer cookouts and was a nice break for all the holiday craziness and foods.“

“Just found this Birch Hill two weeks ago and we've already been twice! Absolutely love the food, atmosphere and staff they are so friendly (almost forgot to mention the drinks. .excellent) Cassie especially made our evening great by accommodating our large group!“

“My girlfriend and I love trying new restaurants and today was the Hop Haus. I must say from the minute we walked in, we felt happy as the place was warm and friendly. Mary, our bartender, did an excellent job making sure we had everything we needed. I said to myGirlfriend, I guess there really is “something about Mary”. The food was excellent and the drinks were the best. We will definitely be coming back. Thanks for hiring such great people. They truly make the placeSpecial!!“

“TJs is a sports bar with great food and immaculately clean. The burger ? tastes like steak! I have had three of them and they are the "best burger" I personally have had in Connecticut. It's small in a cozy, way and the 8 TVs are set up so you can see NFL or Basketball anywhere you sit. It's really perfect for 3 friends & you to play pool and eat, or a casual "date night" because there are booths you can snuggle up in. I usually just go to the bar side; but the restaurant side has 8 small booths so you can take mom or a friend to a tasty lunch. The menu is quite large but I personally stick to burgers.“

“Don't hesitate entering this old, funky, funny and warm pub! The eclectic tunes match the varied CT and nationwide brews, which in turn complements the hearty meals. If you haven't stopped in since you were dating, you'll probably find your initials still in the table or wall. The friendly bar and the creative kitchen will make you punch in your next visit date into your phone before you leave!“

“I have nothing but rave reviews for the 1741 Pub & Grill. I had never visited before and was very impressed with the presentation of the dining room. The wait staff were congenial, pleasant and wonderful and accommodating. The menu was outstanding and the best Valentine's Day experience I have ever had. I was so pleased with the food, the experience and the venue. I will wholeheartedly come back if you should do this again next year. Thank you for a great experience!!“
