20 Best Gastropubs in Portland

“Cool atmosphere. Great food. The staff are wonderful“

“Nice local flare. Away from the city. Excellent food and service.“

“It had been a few years since I been there, and it was the same...great beers and delicious food. Also, going in the summer is the best, love the outdoor space.“

“During our recent trip, my husband and I decided to check out a local restaurant that came highly recommended. From the moment we walked in, Randy at the bar set the tone for a memorable evening. He greeted us with a warm smile and genuine hospitality that immediately made us feel at home, even though we were visiting from out of town.From the appetizers to the main courses, everything was perfectly prepared and full of flavor. The friendly, personalized service Randy provided made this dinner stand out from the rest of our trip. We left not only feeling satisfied with a fantastic meal but also grateful for the warm, welcoming experience he created for us.“

“Alberta street pub has an awesome little venue hidden behind the bar, if your looking for killer local bands, whether country, jazz, blues or anything other, support there cause! The bar itself and the patio(huge) is alone on its own, worth a night out with your friends!“

“We stopped here on a Friday for lunch. Cozy interior with a German pub vibe. Big selection of German beers on tap and in the bottle. We got a Rueben and shared. Delicious! Love they used sliced chunks of pastrami vs deli meat pastrami. The clams had a great garlic flavor.“

“Alpenrausch is a charming gem, perfect for a cozy evening. Their fondue is simply exquisite—rich, creamy, and indulgent, served with the tastiest accompaniments. It's a must-try for anyone seeking an authentic Alpine dining experience.“

“I do not have celiacs and am not gluten intolerant. The chicken strips are one of the best chicken I've had in my life, gluten-free or not. They were so moist yet crispy and crunchy; I would come back for just the chicken strips. But the beer too! My partner and I had three different kinds and loved all of them. If you're in the area, gluten-sensitive or not, stop in! It's amazing.“

“The beer menu is extensive and full of lots of amazing local options.

Everything on the food menu is good but, in my opinion, they have some of the best smash burgers in the city. If you're a fan of that style I definitely recommend trying one.

Even though they're not necessarily known for their cocktails, they always have a few really unique and fun options in that department too, also often using local products.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly until a certain time of evening.

I wouldn't bring tiny kids there but my tweens/teens love it. They love taking card games in the afternoons to play while we get drinks and snacks.“

“Richmond is one of my favorite bars for so many reasons. Location is excellent, a patio unrivaled, and some amazing cocktails. Also can’t stress enough how friendly, caring, and stylish the whole staff is too! You can go here for a date or for a solo drink and you’ll be nothing but impressed. Check it out!“

“I heard from the gentleman behind the bar of a Prime Rib special every Sunday at 4pm on a first time visit. I returned on a Sunday a few weeks later for the special. I arrived early and told the barkeep I was there for the prime rib. I requested the center cut and they obliged. It was a delicious cut of meat and the sides were equally well prepared. A five star experience. I sat at the bar and enjoyed their diverse draft selection and could not be more pleased with the evening I spent at Stormbreaker Brewing. Will return again.“

“Chill atmosphere and tasty food and beer“

“Since I’ve arrived in Portland, I have not received great service. But this place changed my perspective. One of the bartenders made me and my friend feel at home during our time at punchbowl. Finn, an amazing bartender was very knowledgeable about the menu and made sure we knew about any specials happening. There are fun games to play and Finn told us to come in for their all day happy hour on Monday, which had $5 drinks and half off food. It was well worth it and added some entertainment to our Portland visit.

If you’re visiting Portland stop bye PunchBowl, and ask for Finn!“

“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!“

“Cute little place in a strip mall—that in mind I didn’t have super high hopes to be honest but this place is a gem! The food menu is thoughtful and innovative, the drinks are solid, and the staff are so charming and helpful. Will definitely be back.“

“We went and had fun on Tuesday trivia night. Recommend it, was quite fun.“

“The food came out and looked amazing but unfortunately we had dinner before we came. I had the Moscow Mule,, they actually purée the ginger. I ordered a late night Spanish coffee so both cocktails were some of the best we’ve ever had. My hubby had a black and tan and tried both of mine. We definitely both agree is one of the best places to come for good cocktails, good food and staff. We are both raised in PDX & we’ve been just about everywhere; we would 100% recommend it. We had the bartender name Natasha,

Thanks!“

“The staff is great and all of the upgrades look awesome. My favorite time to go to Silver Birch is during football. They have all of the games playing.“

“We booked Produce Row for our wedding ceremony and couldn't be happier with the experience. With around 70 guests, the venue provided ample space and a layout that flowed perfectly with our wedding schedule. Our guests raved about the food, saying it was the best they’ve ever had at a wedding. We also had a guest with gluten allergies who felt well accommodated and was thrilled with the GF beer option.

The staff at Produce Row were exceptional, going above and beyond to make our day special, even accommodating our family’s early afternoon decoration setup. Their organization and coordination ensured everything went smoothly. Communication during the planning process was always prompt and clear. The bartender also received high praise from our guests.

Produce Row is a beautiful venue, and while we added some personal touches with our own decorations, the space was already stunning on its own. We couldn’t recommend it more highly.“

“Whether you're a nature lover, a photography enthusiast, or just looking for a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle, Hilton Portland Downtown has something for everyone.“
