We hosted our rehearsal dinner in the north room at bar west, it was absolutely perfect. Food was incredible, space was beautiful, and service was great from start to finish.

Honestly, pretty disappointed… This place was overpriced and it under delivered. Food was okay.. but the portions were underwhelming.. service was inattentive .. without getting into too much detail.. there’s just better places in Portland.

Bar West was the required bar service through our clients’ venue, and while the event staff on the wedding day was fantastic, the lead-up experience left a lot to be desired.
From the beginning, we were told all communication should go through the venue, since the two companies are sister businesses. However, once communication issues with the venue began, it became almost impossible to get timely answers about the bar — no clear point of contact, unclear menus, and very delayed responses. It wasn’t until 30 days out that we finally received some bar info, and even then, we were directed to multiple conflicting menus. The final order didn’t get confirmed until the week of the wedding, which is incredibly stressful for clients and planners alike.
That said — the event staff on the day of was incredible! Friendly, professional, and totally on point. Logan even accidentally matched the wedding color palette, which we loved. 😂
So… 5 stars for the day-of team. 1 star for the planning experience. Averaging that out — 2 stars overall. Hope to see some serious improvements on the communication front moving forward.
Wonderful happy hour spot. Peaceful and delicious.

Great cocktails! 🍷😀

Service is great and atmosphere is lovely! Food is mediocre. Pancakes were pretty good but the other four savory dishes all could use a lot of improvement. Too bad since we wanted to love it.

Disappointing. Very loud and noisy outside, food was expensive and only average. Staff were friendly, but seemed a little off.

Nice brunch spot with good food and a friendly vibe
Stopped by Bar West for brunch. Menu was pretty limited but dishes were solid. Fried chicken was flavorful and the spicy sauce was great. Eggs Benedict would be better if the yolk was runny, but still came with a fresh salad.
Chill atmosphere. Good spot for a casual meal or to meet friends.
Tip: Try the fried chicken and ask how you want your eggs cooked.
