50 Best Pubs near Milwaukie

“i have played pool out of this establishment for over 13 years. always great food and great service.“

“I absolutely love this place! I've been eyeballing this place for quite some time as I work pretty close by. Today I was working on a Saturday, getting Christmas presents ready for families and children enrolled in our Head Start and Early Head Start programs, soni decided to pop in and grab a bite and a beer. First off, the appearance and ambience of this bar is AWESOME. Then there's the service, which is great. Lastly, the food was excellent. Bar food can be hot or miss, but this place has a nice menu with selections that include burgers, sandwiches, chicken wings and some other tasty options. I opted for the wings with sweet potato fries and a sweet chili dipping sauce and man, or was pretty flippin' tasty! I washed my food down with a local hazy beer, on tap, and thanked the bartender for the excellent experience. Overall grade: A+++“

“My Girl n go there often for breakfast, my eggs, hash browns, Sausage patties and toast n pancakes are always perfect. Very clean n the staff is professionally fun.“

“Things to dig about the Record Pub: - Music for every type of listener. -Bar to sit down for a drink and think about what records you need to add to your arsenal. -Staff to talk about your selections with. -Educated suggestions for additional beats based upon the ensuing conversation of music you’ll have with the bartender. -Finishing another beverage all happy and giddy about the new vinyl you’re taking home.“

“Great place, and bartender was amazing.“

“Toll, das auch! Oder? ？？“

“Rose City Book Pub hosted us for a show and they were amazing. The staff worked SO hard to take care of us, especially since they weren’t expecting a huge group of wizard rockers to descend upon their establishment. What a cool venue, and so welcoming. Thank you thank you thank you!“

“The Reubens were delicious, but the highlight was definitely the chocolate chip cookie. It may be the best cookie I've ever had from a restaurant!“

“Always predictably good. Solid pub food, love the soups and salads too. It’s our neighborhood favorite. They haven’t raised their prices which means the value is amazing! .“

“We loved this cider place the ciders we’re all really good“

“The Big Bottom burger was very delicious 😋. The service was great and friendly.“

“I love staying at the White Eagle, a historic working person’s hotel in North Portland. The music venue downstairs is wonderful, food always excellent, rooms are basic and comfy, bathrooms down the hall clean with lots of hot water for showers. Best of all, friendly staff and courteous fellow guests. Bargain prices. I stay here on almost all my trips through Portland.“

“Lucky Labrador is very friendly to board game players - the tables are large, the food and beverages are good, and there is plenty of room to play whatever your game.“

“are house in the middle of the street ... HOME“

“Come here for a Timbers game, sit in the back patio. Or have a nice date night inside. Enjoy a great food selection with a cocktail, local draft beer, or pound a few cans of cheap beer. There's something for everyone here. Great vibes to make you feel like you're at a neighborhood spot, whether you live nearby or in the burbs.“

“Absolutely love Sellwood Saloon! This place is a gem in every way possible. The owners are fantastic - welcoming, friendly, and truly passionate about what they do. The bartenders are not only skilled at mixing drinks but also energetic and funny, making every visit a memorable experience. The atmosphere is simply fantastic - cozy and inviting, perfect for a night out with friends or a relaxing drink after work. If you're looking for a place with great vibes, top-notch service, and an all-around fantastic experience, Sellwood Saloon is the place to be. 5 stars all the way!“

“Close to home, inexpensive drinks, all the tvs have football, there's keno, 2 pool tables (free on sundays), and slot machines. The other day they let me watch spongebob at 3pm. Who could wish for anything more?!“

“Everything is great except for one of the male bartenders.“

“It has the small town....but worldly feel.
Katie and Sammy are the best sirens of the night. If we just had the back smoke rack...with plants (that the regulars would take care of) growing all through the brick brack.... again, JS.“

“What a great selection of beers!“

“Cool pub! They had Boneyard IPA on tap. 🍻“

“You cannot say anything bad about please place, sorry. They are one of the best kept secrets in Portland.“

“Fantastic service and great food. Try this place if you haven’t yet.“

“The poutine was just OK. They need to add pocked 9 ions and pickled jalapenos as standard and allow you to take them off if you don't like them. Also, the best poutine I have had has braised beef or pulled pork or some sort of meat to balance all the flavors.

The beer was very good. I tried their reserve stuff and their bourbon barrel aged beer and they were pretty good - all of them.“

“As a visitor from South Carolina (aka Trumpistan), I am thrilled to know places like this establishment actually exist. We have no such refuges in my region. It’s so refreshing to mingle with people who value good drinks, good politics, and good society.
Thank you thank you for making my visit to Portland memorable.
Thank you for supporting and defending your community so well.
Thank you for just being good humans.
Solidarity!“

“A classic pub/bar experience with an incredibly charming and knowledgeable bar back who obvious takes great pride in his work and making the establishment feel welcoming and homey. Grab some of the beers on tap or a delicious cider, listen to some live Irish music (on Thursdays) and a basket of shoestring fries for the table and have a merry time.“

“Old Portland. Excellent beers and cocktails, pinball, music from Tom Waits to Rainbow. Totinos pizza and White Castles provide a buffer to the alcohol. An expansive patio affords views of the Clinton Street bike path and happy Portlanders passing. Go here and experience Portland circa 1995.“

“Great hangout spot to meet with friends and play pool“

“Good selection of decent German beer on tap.Brought out of town family.On July 30,Rudest Worse Bartender that I have ever met.Zero Customer skills.Exactly what I did not want,When trying to introduce Portland to visitors.This place used to be good.“

“I absolutely love that every Sunday their pool tables are open to anyone and they're free. So awesome! I've never even really heard anything bad about this place. Everyone's super nice and laid-back. It's a cool place if you have to waste some time or you just want somewhere to hang out that's friendly. This is the place.“

“dog friendly inside and out. great selection of beer and hot sauces. reasonably priced and a great staff and atmosphere“

“The most amazing staff! The beer choices are outstanding. Thank you from this Texas girl!“

“Love watching movies at this historical place. The atmosphere is surreal as pictures and artwork from many years ago line the walls in many parts of this building. They seem to take you back in time to where things were a lot different. Aside from that, the movie experience is just so surreal and a very comfortable experience as movie seating consists of couches, loveseats, recliners, and chairs which are bordered by miscellaneous tables of different sizes. Feels like your watching a movie in a big living room with many friends. The food is above average with a variable menu and decent prices. Overall, this setting of watching movies is great for all ages, kids and adults. My favorite place to watch cinema.“

“great space, nice pool tables, awesome selection of fine drinks, great decor, awesome DJ and shows! plus, Giant Jenga!“

“This gem, hidden in the heart of Portland is great !!! It's like a small town tavern where everybody knows your name.

The Hostess / Bartender / Waitress Lady greeted us warmly🥰, cleared a table, and made some excellent meal, drink, and appetizer suggestions. We both ordered the "Dungeon Burger"; my friend had the soup side and I chose the fries. I had an excellent sweet-tart Moscato blend to sip with my meal and my friend chose a soft drink.

While we waited, the music ambience was excellent rock music loud enough to give us privacy in our conversation while not being loud enough to hinder our conversation.

Our food arrived... WOW, the fries were fries, but the Dungeon burger was a most excellent flavorful experience. The usual toppings were good, but the burger patties were cooked to perfection !!! The flavor was terrific with pink in the middle, just as I love it. It was a culinary delight bursting with flavor, moist and juicy. I found it juicy and messy (if it's not messy, it isn't awesome) and incredibly delicious. I WILL return !!! I can easily recall the
flavor to this minute.

For a late evening meal, I highly recommend this McMenamins !!!“

“Great people to work and drink with!“

“Good Vibes and staff is friendly.“

“Extremely well curated tap list featuring Oregon legends, west coast collabs and new upcoming brewers and cider makers. The rotating cider list is especially great. The owner and staff are knowledgeable and super friendly. It truly is an exceptional neighborhood spot and it was sorely needed.“

“Good vibe, drink and atmosphere.“

“Friendly staff and patrons, rotating outstanding beers. Also hundreds of different cans and bottles in the coolers for drinking on site or taking home.“

“Love the decor. So much to look at while you’re there. Fun place to hang out and grab a bite. Best service I’ve had at McMenamins. I’m used to it being super slow. This was a nice change. The small size likely helps. I want to come back for a movie soon!“

“Great service; Cheeseheads all around, nice array of food and beverages. Be Warned: One serving of fried cheese curds is enough for 4 Portlanders, or 2 WI Cheeseheads. You may have enough to share with strangers.
I wish they would sell half the quantity for even just $4 less, but Huge Portions are the Way, it seems. Go Pack Go!!!“

“Very warm, friendly and inviting ... like home 💖“

“Portland’s oldest Irish Pub! Plus the best Irish Coffee I’ve had on this side of the pond. 5 outa 5!“

“We came here after driving by several times and decided to try it out. What we loved was that this place was initially a home. We loved the antiques and quirky items sitting on the wall shelves which reminded us of ‘the good ole days’. Our drinks and food - I had the salmon salad and hubby had the burger - , were very tasty and served quickly by our waiter who was very attentive. We will definitely be returning.“

“The Italian sub is the best I have ever eaten! Super friendly and great service. Thanks Theo for the friendly chat on your break. Great place Jeri and James!“

“A quaint little Irish pub with an authentic owner from Dublin is a win in my book!

They have an amazing outdoor seating area that we took advantage of after golfing.

The drinks were wet and plentiful. The fish and chips were huge, but I ate till I was stuffed because it was so good!

I highly recommend this place!“
