I was asked to leave before even getting in because this door lady said looked like I’d already « had fun ». I’m a 47yr old father of 3 from Canada… is this for real?! Never has been his happened to me and was starting my evening ended up at the independent where they served me right! Like the name says but I’d like to add, LOTS! of room for improvement!

TL;DR: best cocktail bar we tried in Portland, with great service, fun vibes and the most amazing drinks!
We almost walked past the door to this place which made me like it immediately - it's on a busy alleyway with a bunch of other bars and restaurants and has a nondescript entrance. It doesn't try hard at all and that is what sold me on the place.
It's very divey looking on the inside, and has super fun decor and played rock music amongst other things. The service was extremely friendly, helpful and fast and our server was so friendly. The drinks were really well executed and the furthest from divey I've ever tasted! The bathroom is fun - check it out when you're there. Their menu has great aesthetics and very fun to read.
One of the bartenders is a bartender I've seen featured on the Food52 channel so I was feeling very positive about our drinks. And they were... So. Good. And very reasonably priced after drinking through bars in NYC and SF.
Aviation: I loved the addition of pomegranate and cardamom. This is one of my favorite drinks and I loved their take on it. Espresso martini: ridiculously good - they need to bottle that salty coconut foam and sell it Pimms Cup: extremely well balanced and not too sweet, this was so refreshing Oaxacan Old fashioned: not as smokey as expected since they had both mezcal and tequila, and the chili demerara added a nice kick
We got seated right away after an early dinner. But the bar got packed very quickly, though they also had seats outdoors. The bar serves food too but we didn't try anything.

"this is a bartender's bar" If that makes sense go and enjoy, if it doesn't, still go and enjoy, you wont regret it! Aside from all the zany customers, the bartenders were absolute machines, almost writing poetry with their calculated moves and brilliant concoction's
Everything about this place rules. Great menu, great staff, great vibes. If I lived nearby it would be my local.

My wife and I are in from Northern Michigan visiting our son and Daughter in law. We stopped by and had a few drinks after dinner. All staff treated us great! Spoke with one of the owners and he was super cool and friendly! We even bought some merch as we liked it so much
