Drinks were pricey and not very delicious. Service was excellent and the atmosphere and decor were amazing.

Visited this place for the first time recently with my sweetheart and we both agreed they made the best cocktails we've had in awhile. The Penicillin is particularly good. The atmosphere was cool, and it was fun to see a spot like this tucked in to the neighborhood. The servers were kind and attentive.

Amazing atmosphere! The food and the drinks are as tasty as can be. Music in the back patio area over the weekends. The staff is very courteous and friendly. Just a great place to be.

Had the kindest bartender Saturday night, had the privilege of trying his spin of one of the menu’s cocktails that included Rhubarb. It was delish!

Great experience all around. Cozy environment, comfortable bar stools, and a prohibition vibe with many small details in the decorations. It looks like it has been there since the 1920s.
They have a really nice menu. The two apps we had, the bruschetta the pretzel plate, were delicious! Plus a wide variety of unique cocktails for every taste.
Our bartender, Sarah, was amazing. Very attentive and helpful. She even made us a drink she came up with that wasn’t on the menu (see photo). It was fantastic! She definitely needs to name it and get it on the menu!

Might be my favorite special occasion bar in Portland! Cool atmosphere and delicious drinks. It can definitely be a little crowded on popular nights so you may have to wait for a table or a drink, but it's worth it!

Absolute best cocktails. Very small interior, but there is a great patio outside.
You will find the Bible Club inside a yellow house with no signage—save for a welcome mat and a glowing red porch light at night—Bible Club in Portland, Oregon, transports guests to the Prohibition Era with unmatched attention to detail and atmosphere. This speakeasy, located at 6716 SE 16th St, is a portal to another time, offering a sinfully delightful menu of inventive cocktails and elevated bar bites. Inside, guests are met with vintage decor, low lighting, and a bar program that rivals the best in the country. We began with two standout cocktails: the *Dreamcatcher*—a beautifully clarified milk punch made with Union Gin, Cognac, Clear Creek Pear Brandy, black pepper & bergamot tea syrup, lavender, and lemon—and the *Dead Parrot*, a bold mix of Toki Japanese Whisky, Diplomatico Rum, Smith & Cross Jamaican Rum, Amontillado Sherry, Yellow Chartreuse, and Tiki Bitters served in a gleaming silver chalice. Every element—from the glassware to the flavor profiles—was meticulously curated and expertly executed. Bible Club has secured its spot on our top 10 list, and we’re already planning our return.

Came here with some of my best friends after eating next door at PDX Sliders. We got cocktails, mocktails and dessert. Can't speak to the food but we all agreed it looked like it would be quite delicious.
My cocktial was perfect. Has all of the things I love and was so well balanced. My friends' mocktails were also so heckin' good. We got a passionfruit cake and it was so tasty.
Recommend this place for small groups for a nice cocktail and snacks/apps

Bartenders went out of their way for us and were extremely nice. Music was one of the best live performances I've been to in a while. My wife loved the chocolate mousse dessert.

I've gone here quite a few times and try to tell everyone I know about the spot. The drinks are great and it's very cozy and not too loud on the inside. The outdoor venue is also decent, but I prefer the indoor seating as they've really crafted a cool vibe inside. My favorite cocktail was seeds of sin, not sure if it's seasonal but it's delicious (boozy apple pie). The pretzel board and the pulled pork appetizers are my favorites.
The only downsides, if you can call them that, are that the inside is very small so you often have to wait for seating which can take some time. And finding a parking spot can be a hunt in this area of Sellwood sometimes. Will definitely return with friends.
