50 Best Cocktail Bars near Oak Grove

“I love this place! I could get a cup of coffee anywhere but this shop has become more than just great food and drinks - it’s a place for neighbors to gather and the owners have fully invested themselves in our community. Love the breakfast sandwiches, my daily coffee and Friday evenings on their back lawn with a beer and friends!“

“Great place to unwind ... machines seem to hit here more often which is good for the pockets ... And between Terri and Mandi the bartender attendants the service is on time an awesome.... Food.Beer.VPoker is a mix of good times and helps the spirits heal from the negative BS ...??“

“After visiting several bars and restaurants across the country and Portland (specifically) it’s impressive to see a spot that cares deeply about the atmosphere, service and menu.

I’ve been here twice and each time have been very impressed by how hospitable the bartenders are.

Josh is a standout and clearly cares about his team and customers.

Overall, 10/10. This is the kind of spot that Portland NEEDS.“

“Such a fun little cocktail lounge in downtown Portland! Really enjoyed the vibe, dim lit, music space. Has two seperate spaces one side when ypu first walk in for walk ins and another space specifically for reservations. Reservation side was definitely not as busy but both sides were chill and cool. Only thing we didn't like and can complain about is when asked for Titos vodka for our drinks we were told they dont carry and serve Titos. For a cocktail lounge you would think they would have a big variety of alcohol choices. The drink menu was also over whelming as we weren't sure what most of the items on the menu were. All in all we enjoyed our time with friends at the Teardrop Lounge ✨️“

“Great vibes to share a drink and have a conversation.“

“New favorite spot, this place far exceeded my expectations!!! I found this just looking around Google maps and was so delighted when I finally made it in. The sound system is out of this world, deep layered bass, super chill music, they played from a chill Spotify Playlist to some really cool records. The system they have is beautiful, the inside is gorgeous, the drinks were incredible and food looked great too!! Definitely a new fav.“

“Too Soon is a much-needed addition to the Portland scene. The perfect place to relax with friends or even actually meet somebody new worth meeting. Looking forward to checking out their awesome menu! Plus the bartenders can make anything and everything ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“This place is a Portland gem. Amazing vibes! They had fantastic drinks. Very inclusive food and the best ambiance. Cozy romantic cool vintage, and more. Very interesting drinks. Both Cafe drinks and bar beverages and I love that they were so inclusive with vegetarian options, gluten-free options, and zero proof options. Very important. I highly highly recommend.“

“Great live music here!!!!“

“Definitely enjoyed it. Looking forward to going back.“

“Just a great little tiki bar. Fun creative cocktails. Everything was really nice. They use great spirits with good quality ingredients. The little snack we had was great. Pretty busy little place for a Monday night. Lots of locals you could tell were there after work decompressing chatting visiting. Definitely had a real old Portland vibe that I remember from before the pandemic. Caught me off guard. I had low expectations but it was a great little spot.“

“This place was excellent!
Friendly and attentive staff, but don’t bother you or make you feel rushed. We felt we really got to enjoy the experience.
Drinks I enjoyed: Them Apples and Little Talks
Food we shared: Canapé Trio, Oysters, Wild Mushrooms
Entrees: Pork Picatta, and their New Years Special; Surf & Turf.
Our server was Asher F. and he was so kind.
Will definitely go here again!“

“I did the elixir experience at Ravens Manor and I highly recommend! The staff were extremely entertaining (shout out to Carmella and Lilith) and were accommodating! The entire bar is decorated top to bottom in the spookiest way- I truly felt like I was an evil scientist in the lab! If I ever come back to Portland, I will for sure be visiting the manor again!“

“Shig's menu is on point: the burger and chicken sandwich are both among the best ones in town. Mini Monday and Taco Tuesday are 5 star experiences: the sliders and crunchwrap fully slap. Sean's cocktail menu is terrific, both perennials and seasonals (the Golden Sombrero ftw). My praise to every bartender who contributes to it. Beyond the surface, the intangibles are undeniable: this is a true neighborhood joint that consistently punches above its weight, and they do the neighborhood proud.“

“Best Mezcal selection in the country! Their Mezcal wall is so impressive. Dan and Brendon are artists at cocktail making. Delicious cocktails. They are super nice and we learned a lot about Mezcal. The Brussels sprouts Caesar is amazing! Whatever sauce is in it should be bottled. The tacos melt in your mouth. So delicious. The atmosphere is dark, moody, toasty. Great on a fall/winter night!“

“I frequented this place a lot over the years, it’s nice and intimate inside and a great place for a date night. We don’t usually order food but the cocktails are straight forward and well mixed. It’s not the best place in town to order a cocktail, but it is the best place in “

“This place is great, Tony is a master of his craft. The food is delicious, definitely try the Whiskey battered onion rings. The Resting Whitch Face and the Quickie Minaj and the best! Thanks Tony!!!“

“Fun spot. With decent drinks. Good for a stop.“

“A go-to spot in Beaumont Village and my number one cocktail bar recommendation. Kate, one of the owners, always makes us feel at home. The drinks are sophisticated and the atmosphere is cozy yet modern. They have classic cocktails with a twist plus no proof and low proof offerings. Every single food item is top notch…favorites include Shrimp Cocktail, Cheese Curds, and seasonal items like the Beet Salad. The Classique Burger is the absolute best and has been for years. The Olive Oil Cake makes for the perfect finish to any Wonderly evening.“

“Sunrice is inside of Roxy hotel. Pleasant ambiance of the lobby tucked behind the hotel front desk for hotel guests and food court eaters.

Excellent Philippine food. Reasonable prices. The cook and helper Kent and Jason were very nice and greeted everyone with friendly smile.“

“Great date night! We celebrated our first wedding anniversary here last night and every single thing we ordered was excellent. The wine/bubbles list is impressive also.“

“Awesome venue and great atmosphere“

“I went to the Uncanny last Sunday for a birthday and had the best time! The food was incredible, drinks were super unique, and the service was amazing. The bartender and server were both equally as friendly and welcoming. I will for sure be coming back soon!“

“Russel makes a mean Manhattan!“

“Participated in Portland Dining Month. Food was good and had ample size servings. The area it's located in is really nice but the space is quaint and you need to make time to find parking. We sat between 2 couples and it was a little loud when everyone was speaking. Conversation came down when the food arrived. I'd recommend if you are planning dinner with another person. It's a good place for food and drinks. I suspect when the weather is better, customers can sit outside and enjoy a good meal.“

“Does your grandma have a secret? Portland OR’s does. This grandma spices things with with Vietnamese style fare and cocktails. Super small and quaint little place that is really fun for a group of 2 or 3 people. Prices are high for the drink quality imo, but I would definitely recommend - 4/5“

“Saw an ad on Instagram about this spot and boy am I so glad I saw it! This place is so beautifully decorated and immediately sets a fun, polished, welcomIng vibe. I'm a big fan of flights so was very happpy to see that at the forefront of this menu. We went for the bubbles flight - everything was delicious and I had never had a sparkling red! For the food we tried the fondue (delish), deviled eggs, and tuna tartare (definitely the star). Service was amazing as well of course can't wait to come back and also can't believe I had never explored this area before!“

“Rad Portland bar. Great atmosphere. Rad staff.

Delicious food - the corn ribs were a really fun surprise. Burger was solid. Brussel Sprouts are fire. Heard the Ban Mi and rice bowls are epic.

The bathrooms are cute and tight. Has an adorable sink.

Great cocktails.“

“Went there by myself last night and felt so welcomed by everyone, had a blast ☺️ great atmosphere and people.“

“What a great spot to hang out. Food and drinks are fabulous. Paydirt is dark and sexy with a huge selection behind the bar. Bartenders are friendly. Sitting outside is fun when the weather is right. Choice of food is awesome. Mexican, fried chicken, pizza, pho, it’s all good. Parking is street and we were a block away but not too far.“

“Wildfire and apple cider is so good. Had to buy a case.“

“Can’t say I’ve ever been to a cocktail bar that featured saltwater tank aquariums. They’ve certainly got novelty going for them here.

I only ordered one drink which was the Perfect Matcha. It was vodka based and I actually don’t like vodka, so I don’t know what I was thinking when I ordered it, but it was surprisingly refreshing. The vodka is green tea infused and makes it really light and clean tasting. A touch sweet and creamy (but not thick) with some earthy matcha flavor. I liked it.“

“Excellent service, cool place. Outdoor seating with fire pits. Tasty beers and cocktails.“

“Delicious & immaculately presented, robust drink menu and Tapas done right 😋“

“We had eaten at Langbaan (their expensive other restaurant), which we tremendously enjoyed as a fine dining experience. We wanted to try Phuket. We were pleased with the quality of service, prices, ambience, and the food. One dish was a bit lacking in flavor, but the other three we had were superb. Definitely worth revisiting.“

“Unbelievable amazing food lobster pad Thai was unreal Annie was a great server“

“The food, the cocktails are great along with the staff. Give it a try you won’t be disappointed.“

“The Elk frybread is amazing. Looking forward to come here again.“

“One of the chillest Foxy's around! Good vibes, awesome workers, great prices on drinks and smokes. If you need a more relaxed night than what most pubs can offer, then this is your spot. They have an awesome lounge area that is hardly ever used so it's always an awesome choice. Definitely give them a look cause they are so much more than what you expect a gambling den to be.“

“Best drinks, friendly atmosphere, great bartenders! Especially liked sitting outside on a warm day having a drink with old friends, and making new ones. Always someone there to play pool with and “talk story”.“

“Love the drinks and overall vibes! Super unique entrance…I won’t spoil it ;)“

“The bar tender went out of his way to help me. My car has a wind break that covers the back seat. I took the piece out of the car and he stored it for me so I would not have to go back to the room. Then we were late getting back from dinner, he stayed until we got back. As expected from the Crown Plaza. The best service.“

“Great atmosphere, delicious food. Well have to come back soon.“

“This is a small dark romantic basement bar.

The food options are limited. The hot caso and chips were tasty.

The salsa and guacamole and chips were passable.

The music playing was romantic and not to loud.

The service staff where nice.

I hope to return to this bar to enjoy drinks again.“

“As we have been in Bellpine a dozen times since 2024 we see changes that happen in their menus and schedule. We had breakfast, lunch (when lunch was still served) , brunch and dinner in the past.. This time we were there for brunch. We think that it was a good idea to combine breakfast and lunch menus and serve brunch every day. The menu for brunch is bigger and has a lot of items to choose from. The only problem we noticed is that the portions are not proportional. We ordered crab sandwich last year , which more like crab roll with brioche that was fine. It is listed among "sandwiches", but the portion this time was too small for any sandwich. It reminds their dinner appetizer that is called Crab Berliner. The size of the crab sandwich cannot be the same as the appetizer. The white bread was tasty, but it was not brioche. Belgian waffle is listed with desserts, but it is more like a separate meal. On a positive note the food was well prepared and the menu items are changed in a timely manner. The city views are stunning and the dining room is very well decorated. The service was exceptional. We hope to see more positive changes in this restaurant in the future. Highly recommend it for special celebrations.“

“☺️ Husband took me here for date night last weekend and it was a lovely time. Our server was so helpful and friendly, the food was tasty and we had plenty of time to chat and enjoy each other's company. Thank you!“

“Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.“

“My husband and I ate at Palomar Recently and really enjoyed the ambiance The service and the food. We will make it a point to go again soon and I really look forward to it.“

“This is a hidden gem. Service was great. Enthusiastic and welcoming. Drinks were served swiftly and competently. Menu is conservative but still fun to explore. My club and French fries were satisfying. Was thrilled to see actual chicken meat in my sandwich and not sliced deli meat. Lots of real avocado, bacon and grilled thickly sliced sour dough made it a meal. Beet salad to start was dressed a bit heavily but delicious nonetheless.
This is a small space with only me and my 4 comrades and another party about the same size sat directly next to us. Why?
Would be nervous to see this place filled as I'd worry about hearing conversation.
My friends told me that both servings of garlic fries weren't hot. And my other friend did not get his requested avocado on his burger. Also, we were celebrating a birthday and don't think they serve dessert as none was offered.
Also, I assume you can park in motel lot for dining. If so, that's a bonus in NW!“
