50 Best Bars near Damascus

“Great place to hang with friends and delicious beverages!“

“Relaxing and friendly atmosphere for all ages.“

“We were there tonight for dinner for the first time!!! The dinner was amazing and the staff was outstanding!!! We will be back soon!!! Thank you for an amazing night!!!“

“I found the food to be too salty over a variety of offerings. Delicious, but overly salty. Deviled Eggs, Farm Greens Salad, Seafood Roll, Chickpea Panisse - delicious but too much salt. Cocktails were excellent and well balanced. Patio out back was quite pleasant. Good service but you have to order at the bar.“

“Much bigger inside than you would think. So happy there is live music. Regulars make you feel welcome.“

“Have only been blessed with food from here twice, recently with some tomato soup and bread someone dropped off at camp which was really good and about 5 or 6 years ago one of the ladies there hooked me up with an elk burger that was incredible. Makes me happy that I spend time cleaning up the area after all the folks that toss the fast food trash out the door before driving home

Parking: Can be a little tricky as the parking for most businesses in the area is side street parallel. There's a large lot next door for McDonald's but they've been known to tow people, part of the lot is out in front of over and out but I'm not sure if that's McDonald's as well. There is a lot at 81st and Washington at Milwaukee lumber where it's ok to park after 5pm up to around 630am and one across 81st at atc autobody but watch for broken glass in that one esp near Dumpsters“

“Eclectic. Not eccentric. Music is on point with the vibe and the vibe is vibin’

Eat the food; drink the drinks: step back in time with mid century modern decor. Excellent pinball spot with a pool table, patio and, stand up arcade games even but that’s required to match the 60’s vibe. It’s so cool and soo very awesome. Dimly lit and relaxed; the frills are in the house cocktails in glass pineapples which is not a complaint - every detail is thought out.

Not a place with video lottery - instead a place with class in a league of their own.“

“I'm traveling from Boise to Lincoln City and just stopped in here for a quick bite. Robbie, made us feel right a home here, at Bandits as if we have been coming here for years. Not only was the service amazing but the food just hit the spot and was just what we needed to finish our trip. 10/10“

“Travel the world through cased meat! BEST“

“The great FRIENDLY SERVING STAFF and above average food from the Kitchen Staff. ENJOY“

“a great night all around.“

“Awesome Drinks and Killer selection of Whiskeys. Amazing food and Best Potato Salad I've ever had. Didn't expect the rad atmosphere inside as its in a strip mall but its way cool and inviting definitely need to check it out

Parking: Huge Lot“

“Great food and service. Highly recommend“

“It is a fun place to hangout. Bartenders are really nice. I recommend people should go there.“

“They have done a great job with Misfits. Great music and great staff!“

“Definitely the cheapest Jello Shots in town but I think they might also be the best. $1.50 a pop with flavors like Strawberry Shortcake, Pink Starburst, Margarita, and Cherry. Each one made with different liquor.

A couple of tvs showing sports or whatever you ask for.

The shopping center also has some amazing food if you take a look around!“

“Friendly folks ~ awesome food carts ~ nice drinks!“

“Great setup with the various food vendors that are part of the building. Lots of different styles of beer and the server was friendly. The Timbers were on TV and this seems like a fun place to watch a game but we couldn’t stick around. Would like to come back in the summer and enjoy the covered patio.“

“Probably the best taproom in the world! Great selection of beer and cider, fantastic staff, low key, casual atmosphere. Love it here!“

“Warm, welcoming neighborhood hangout with fantastic bartenders, cheap drinks, and diverse clientele. Karaoke with Scott is always a blast. I’ve made so many friends there.“

“We tasted a couple of flights and a glass of Pét Nat each, it was a really lovely experience. Fairly priced. Calm and cool atmosphere with some nice music. Each table has an assortment of obscure Trivial Pursuit cards which was such a fun, silly addition to the experience. We also ordered the truffle almonds to break up the wine a bit and they were very tasty.
The person who prepared our flights was very knowledgeable and friendly. This was a Sunday afternoon, I wish I could remember their name because he really did top off the experience.“

“My husband and I have tried many craft cocktail bars in Portland and this is a gem. It's worth getting off of the popular strips like Mississippi, stark St. Belmont, Hawthorne division and the pearl/nw 23rd areas. You won't find a better crafted cocktail and they don't skimp on anything. An absolute must for cocktails and simple but quality bites. The decor is so great too.“

“love the atmosphere,the food and the drinks are on point, definitely my spot“

“I absolutely adore this pub and am so glad it's in my neighborhood. Warm, welcoming atmosphere, always amazing music, friendly bartenders serving proper cold ones. I enjoy myself every single time.“

“Saturday night Karaoke is fun. Staff is attentive and super friendly 🥰.“

“I am new to this part of Portland but quickly felt right at home with the staff and a diverse crowd of locals I see there often. Very comfortable place to chill & have a drink.“

“I live in walking distance of this place and have to say it is quite the gem. The vibes are always relaxed and comfortable, bar tenders are friendly and laid back, the cheeseburgers are delicious and very reasonably priced, and the drinks are good! On top of that, their new pinball selection (7 machines!) makes this place too good to be true, with two of my all time favorite machines. Happy its in the neighborhood. Don't be fooled by its unassuming facade, Old Gilbert is a perfect neighborhood bar and a Mt. Scott institution.“

“They do specials all the time! Yum! That cocktail they call "tea" is strong, but taste so good! The clam chowder on Fridays are the best!“

“It’s my neighborhood hangout 🍺“

“Classic dive bar with good food.“

“Great spot to have get togethers with family, they make great drinks and are a no bs place, the woman who runs the place is definitely not having ppl in the restrooms for hours on end?? and won't tolerate bs and I love that the most about when we go here! The drinks too ?“

“I went there for the first time a few days ago! Great drinks and great people“

“Good food that’s not too expensive. And the bartenders are the best.“

“When we go out for dinner and drinks we always stop by on the way home.“

“Great atmosphere and food. The covered seating with fire pit and table heaters were a big plus. Bartenders inside were very friendly with a great selection of beers and cocktails. Yummy assortment of carts to choose from.“

“This is a local bar with regulars and more. It has a great patio in back. The best bartender is Jimmy. As a regular I expect to see Jimmy every Wednesday. He has had his Wednesday taken away. We need to see Jimmy on Wednesdays. Hope he gets his days back soon. Go visit. Good place. Say hi to Jimmy.“

“Great beer selection!! Friendly staff highly recommended!“

“I did not eat there went with my son. He had a drink very good. His friend is the bartender Jim. I played the poker machines I donated.? Very clean nice arranged place. I plan on going there for lunch with some of my girlfriends next month. I hear the food is awesome. Please try it out for yourself. You won’t be sorry.“

“Local dive bar. bar food. nice staff.“

“What a fun first time I had with my partner for his birthday last night! Shout out to Hannah for creating a friendly fun inclusive atmosphere! Also super cool patio. They are dog friendly as well to v good bois“

“First thing, don't be fooled by the outside appearance. It's much nicer on the inside- clean, spacious, etc. The bathrooms are the same. Single occupancy though, for better or worse. There's also a couple lottery machines. It was kind of dead though- as far as the crowd goes. But, the ones that were there seemed cool.“

“Basic Portland dive bar but that's what they are aiming for. Comfort. Decent strong drinks, usual bar food. I had tots but the basket was huge. They have karaoke, but I've never been there for that. Weekend nights get busy. Staff is always friendly. Multiple TV's usually playing sports.“

“My partner and I come here sometimes late at night and play a game or 2 of pool!! The bartender is always nice and always gotten great service, not to mention the customers (regulars) are always fun to be around! We usually take food home and it’s always been great!“

“Breakfast this morning was awesome highly recommended 💯 thnx Gen!“

“Very comforatable and relaxing with a kool and quite place to here your self think and have a beverage without that loud annoying drunk that never shuts down which has forced me to take my business else where alot of the time..bartenders seam to always have the time for you as well....amagine that“

“Cheapest prices in this country. Shots, beer, & bar food are priced 1980s. Take advantage of this place as long as it last. Wont be around much longer as it attracts borderline hobos & other folks that only come out at night. I absolutely love this sleezy but top spot preflight! 4 drinks limit.“

“I love the vibe of this bar. Inside this location is the working distillery where McMenamins makes a large portion of its Hogshead whiskey and Lemon vodka. Distillery tours take place at 1PM Monday through Friday, be sure to get your stamp. Overall the in house cocktails are awesome and the staff are very knowledgable about theirs products.“

“First time here but was surprised at the interior when I came up. Incredibly welcoming and funny door man and the bartender was full of energy and so fun! The patio is absolutely beautiful warm and feels like a place you could take your mom, a date, friends, whoever and have a great time. Highly recommend“

“It was my first visit there, I don't know why I waited so long to go, I remember as a youth driving past that odd named bar, laughing at the name wondering what really went on in a place with a name like that. And with my best friend Brooke leading the way she showed me one of Portlands best kept secrets. Visit it today, you surely won't be disappointed, classically PDX weird.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Ka Te, Portland's very best Asian restaurant! The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. I was especially impressed by the owner Eric, who was knowledgeable and passionate about the restaurant and the food they served.The food was absolutely amazing! I had the opportunity to try a variety of dishes and they were all incredibly delicious and authentic. The pho was especially good, and the broth was flavorful and just the right balance of spices. The spring rolls were also excellent, and the fish was cooked to perfection.I also had the chance to try the karaoke for the first time, and it was a great experience. Everyone was having a great time, and the atmosphere was very inviting.Overall, my experience at Ka Te was one of the best I've ever had. The food was delicious, the staff were friendly, and the atmosphere was perfect. I would highly recommend Ka Te to anyone looking for an authentic and enjoyable Vietnamese experience.“
