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 ...??“

“Been here twice and was not disappointed! Great vibes! We had a reservation so we were seated promptly even without having the 4 people all at once. Order was supposed to be placed at the bar which was a little inconvenient. In drinks we got the Dew Process which was sweet but nice, United States of Baijiu and Green Machine were great. Mandarin wings were amazing as always, tofu was greasy but great, honey shrimp was awesome! The silk dumplings were not so great since they were too doughy and I could barely taste the wagyu beef in it. All in all a fun experience!“

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

“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.“

“Thoughtfully curated cocktail menu which is varied and interesting. The description of each one is helpful for choosing. The service was very attentive and chatty. Note there is no longer a happy hour if this is a factor in your venue choice.“

“Ok this place has terrible parking (I.E. none) and was fairly crowded. I almost ended up in the food carts across the street. MAN I'm glad I decided to try it out anyway!! The chef and mixologist (not just a bartender) were both top notch humans that provided a delicious experience with amazing service. We sat at the bar and honestly would do the same again. Definitely added to our experience. These folks give a shit about their art and it shows. I hope to catch some live music or an event sometime soon.“

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

“Opened up to write a review & see I did 8 years ago! Same review holds true today. Still one of the best spots ever! :>)

So love the Rum Club. Friends and I eat here regularly. The food is amazing, every time...just exceptionally delicious. And the staff are always fantastic too. Super cozy atmosphere makes this a great place!“

“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 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Very cool cocktail bar with a lowkey, relaxed atmosphere. I ordered a Paloma with Casa Migos, and it was absolutely perfect. The modern Western decor and live DJ really set this place apart, on top of great service and knowledgeable staff. I would definitely recommend this place, and I’ll be back to try some more incredibly made cocktails!“

“I’m so sad I have not been here earlier, but I tried the meat Sando and oh my goodness that was so delicious. I ended up eating at super fast because I just couldn’t stop biting into it. I enjoy the chai, and the atmosphere was so peaceful in the morning and then it gets busy in the afternoon but still it was really nice. Just a bit chilly.“

“I’ll start with saying Neal and Deandre were great. I’ve done 18 years in hospitality and they were genuine and wonderful. I had never been to Portland before but when I found this establishment, I knew I had to go; I was not disappointed. The Beelzebub was Neal’s creation and it was so much fun. My other favorite was the Pazuzu. The descriptions and execution of every item were spot on. Whenever I end up in Portland I will absolutely go here the evening I arrive.“

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

“Everything taste good, and Mhee Klug on the lunch menu was the highlights! Bote that the lunch menu is smaller than dinner. Out door seating was great for lunch time in May, the indoor had strong kitchen fume smell although decoration was cute.“

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

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

“Great live music here!!!!“

“My date was very late, but the staff completely saved the experience. From the moment I arrived, they made me feel welcome, comfortable, and not at all awkward for waiting alone. Their kindness and attention turned what could’ve been a frustrating night into a genuinely nice one. Great service goes a long way—I’d definitely come back. They recommend one of their best Tepeztates and just like the ones from Oaxaca. Muchas gracias chicos.“

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

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

“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 “

“Awesome atmosphere, great food and service. While not the best chicken sandwich in town, it's got a great crunch and combination of flavors with the sauce on it. I wish it was a little thicker piece of chicken but the bun is great. The fries are delicious, and the staff kindly offered many kinds of sauces for the food. It's a great place to bicycle to, right on a Greenway and a section of road closed to vehicles which they utilize for a terrific outdoor seating area. This place is great, highly recommend.“

“Amazing food and service! Love love this place!!!“

“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!!!“

“Amazing cocktails, decor and bartenders.“

“We wanted to try here again, it had been a few years since we'd been. It made it for happy hour and got a couple of the cocktails-a rum negroni and an Old Fashioned type bourbon drink. Both were excellent. We got some food including the shrimp cocktail and a burger and fries. The food was also fantastic. Our server was super friendly and helpful. We very much enjoyed our experience here and will be back soon.“

“First timers at Hey Luigi. I was very pleasantly surprised! The food hits, the atmosphere is vibey, and service was on point. Exact order I recommend, trust me: Burrata, cheese pizza (it’s better than what you think a normal cheese pizza is), pesto pasta with chicken, and a cocktail. Thanks to Natane, who gave excellent service, we will absolutely be back.“

“☺️ 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!“

“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.“

“Russel makes a mean Manhattan!“

“Awesome venue and great atmosphere“

“Reminds me of NYC, really cool place to grab a drink. Turns info a nightclub after 10 PM“

“Stellar ambience and amazing food. Ordered the small breakfast - eggs, bacon, toast, and potato wedges and it was all so, so good. The portion was perfectly filling. Staff was friendly and provided impeccable service. Surprisingly uncrowded for a Saturday afternoon. I loved the art on the walls and the playlist (mostly 90’s music).“

“I make it a point to visit Canard Burnside on all of my trips to Portland! The unique flavors and presentations on their menu keep me coming back for more. Had the roasted beets last night for the first time and the flavor was out of this world.“

“😍 delicious at best !!!“

“Perfect place for a special family birthday dinner for a party of 7 after enjoying the art immersive Portlandia institution Hopscotch - great for all ages - interesting foods to try family style, great friendly quirky service - the tomato salad is absolutely delicious we ordered all 4 kinds of Russian dumplings and halibut, chicken and veggie kabobs all very interesting and delicious - the fruit shortcake with lemon cream was the standout surprise flavor bomb - we have been a couple times and it doesn't disappoint - fun place to take folks from out of town“

“Grabbed dinner and drinks here on a Tuesday and it was a lively but not overcrowded outdoor space. The chicken banh mi was yummy and I really loved the fries and sauce. The Brussels sprouts portion was huge for two people but it was crisped to perfection“

“Stem Wine having Friendship Kitchen (their 3rd location!) inside now is such a match made in heaven! We had the Mì Quảng Tumeric noodles + bottle of Pinot Grigio and kept talking about how underrated Vietnamese food is with wine pairings. Lobster Puffs are also to die for! Their patio area is gonna be the place to be this summer!“

“February 8th, 2026 menu & service was absolutely divine! Start to finish service and all staff present were absolutely charming and very attentive. Presentation was beautiful, the atmosphere felt very warm, cozy and inviting. Plates were absolutely stunning in all ways. The textures in each dish were just so perfect, exciting and unique. The flavors complimented each other so well and each course was perfectly balanced, flowing nicely into the next. Everything was absolutely perfect, the thrill of enjoying such technical yet plant based preperations genuinly brings tears of joy. Thank you so for so perfectly encapsulating the possibilities of plant based foods! 💚💚 We were happy to hear about the recipes staying and going from the menu, we couldn't agree more with the choices. The Kombucha pairings were magical. Meadowland was perfect. The respect payed to plants here, the absolutely mind blowing creativity that leaves you craving more, makes Astera stand out as a historical evolution for plant based flavor, technical creativity, creation, service and passion in the plant based realm in the U.S. Astera is heaven on earth. I cannot express enough gratitude for such a wonderful little spot, thank you for such tasty snacks!! We will be back very soon, hoping to experience the seasons with you!“

“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“

“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.“

“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 was the first visit, but there will be many, many more! We showed up and were told there’d be about a 10 min wait - which was fine! About 30 seconds later though, we had a seat and were looking at the menus! Service was excellent and kind. The food was so, so good! The portions were more than generous and the coffee was good! Can’t wait for our next visit!“
