Lounges in Portland, OR

“Excellent whiskey bar. Good selection of whiskeys and full bar options with attention to detail and balance on cocktails. They take their cocktails very seriously which is appreciated. And atmosphere is unique— old library feel with brass book shelf wheeled ladders (for liquor though), leather seats, and large wood slated floors. Food was so so, but highly recommend for drinks.“

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

“This was our second time at this lovely lounge. Perfect for romantic date nights or a quiet ladies night. We ordered the farmers board and tried a handful of cocktails all were delicious!“

“Miles is a great guy! Drop by to say hello 🤙“

“Awesome place to grab a brewski. Went here with the wife and had a great time!“

“So attentive they read my mind when I wanted another drink haha. Friendly staff and perfect if you're into the more old fashioned style bar (which I personally love). Really cool light fixtures and a casual environment! Positive energy and fun music.“

“Such a talented, fresh and FUN little theater. They got some amazing quacky musicals and themed improv shows. Great for awesome weekend dates.“

“Geoff Tate - Operation Mindcrime with Mark Daley great new up and coming band!“

“TTT is one of Portland's hippest and most happening venues. Very soulful.“

“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 ✨️“

“Have been going there for years For breakfast how long with my sister and brother-in-law. But now they don’t open till noon I guess except Saturday. So I’m very disappointed I don’t get to go there any more“

“This is a great first date place. The food presentation was outstanding. However, we felt it was a little blan. They use RC soda products here, which are flat at the bar but have carbonation if gotten from the back. Amazing happy hour!

Kid-friendliness: Not great for kiddos.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of wheelchair accessibility tables.“

“Food is alright, just average fried food with the exception of their buffalo wings.
Service is always consistently good with friendly bartenders who are attentive to one's needs. Well made drinks.
Atmosphere, what can I say, it's cozy and warm with soft RGB LED lights giving the room a perfect ambiance.
On Friday evenings they have what is called The Queen's Keys, With notable Portland Drag Queens Saint Syndrome and Nichole Anoscopy. In which they cover popular music in a Lounge style. Think Richard Cheese in Drag. I absolutely love their renditions. It's Soo much fun.

Vegetarian options: The meatless chicken nuggets are bomb!

Parking: Free street parking AFTER 7PM.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of space to move around. With ADA Restroom.“

“Went to Oregon for the first time and stayed in the hotel 10/10. I’m glad they had a restaurant there able to get drinks and go up to my hotel with no problem definitely recommend. We went every night to get a drink since they had a drink package deal for Labor Day so we got free drinks for every stay. Thank you Kevin for serving us each night!! Will definitely return back.“

“Very very very good try Vietnamese party food4 real!!! Best in P-Town“

“Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.“

“Excellent food and service! A fun pre-Timbers match vibe and the place was hopping!“

“Seems like a new location. Stopped in during the day on a work trip. It's mainly a bar/nightclub setting but the food seems to be authentic African dishes. Also has a great island reggae/ afrobeat vibe and decor. Cool artwork painted onto the walls. Ordered the goat pepper soup. Get ready for your nostrils to open up if you're not used to spice. Kept eating despite the heat. Flavor was great.“

“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 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“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.“

“Warm cozy atmosphere, friendly service, fine cocktails.“

“I make a stop at the Bye & Bye every time I’m in town! Once a year, but totally worth it!!“

“We were there for the first time on the evening of January 10, 2026. We sat at the bar for a bit because we were a little early for our reservation. Michelle brought us a couple of beers and we ordered a plate of six oysters. She chatted cheerfully with us while she busily poured drinks for others and then introduced us to her two sons and a son’s girlfriend, who all also work there. Everyone was so friendly and kind! When our table was ready, Michelle thanked us for being there and said that it was great to meet us. At our table, we ordered another half dozen oysters, a caesar salad, a couple more beers, and two big bowls of cioppino. Absolutely delicious with the large, thick slices of freshly-made garlic bread for dunking. This place is a true gem. Four generation of family working there and their love for the place and what they do shows. Can’t wait to go back!!“

“Not only did every drink I get from here absolutely slap, but there was a girl in pink, who went out of her way to find me what I needed in order to have a wonderful night. Every bartender that served me was polite and courteous, and made a wonderful drink.. if I could write service more, I would“

“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 “

“Sound guy is very professional 👍“

“Gin gimlets were delicious“

“Went on Superbowl Sunday. Nice people, the Bartender was absolutely wonderful! First time visit, and I was made to feel very welcome in a bar that appeared to be regulars. Also, the $10-20 cost I provided reflects the fact that I was there for a couple. Also, I tip.“

“Low Tide Lounge has the kind of laid-back atmosphere that makes you want to stay a while. The empanadas and nachos were delicious, the micheladas were on point—and best of all, the jukebox and pool table are both free.

What more could you want???“

“This is a beautiful and sacred place. You feel the positive vibes as soon as you come through the door and up the stairs. Holland and the rest of the staff are very friendly. The kava, teas and cacao are amazingly delicious.“

“Jade does a great job! 🙂👍“

“Beautiful space, excellent cocktails, great music! The owner served up some delicious cocktails for me and wine for my date. We enjoyed our conversation while a good selection of classic rock played in the background. Comfortable seating inside, a few tables outside. The food smelled amazing so I'll definitely be eating next time I come by.“

“When you get the chance stop by Olive or Twist, you will not be disappointed. This tucked away little gem is hands down the best martini bar in Portland. The staff will treat you like a long time friend. The classy laid back atmosphere is easy to relax and sip your martini in. Make sure you tell Sammy Hi.“

“Amazing appetizers and cocktails.“

“The service was wonderful the bartender was very very friendly and accommodating for my besties and I when we went on a friends trip for one of their bachelorette party's. It's an absolute vibe and I would absolutely recommend it if you want a chill atmosphere to drink and dance 🥰“

“Service was great! Food was delicious, locally sourced and affordable.“

“If ya know ya know. The only kava bar where you can find true noble kava from Vanuatu 🇻🇺. The quality of root and its preparation here are on a whole other level compared to other kava bars in town, and across the country! Literally maybe 5 kava bars in the US with such quality.“

“Came here at the suggestion of a local friend as well as traveler friend. Great atmosphere and drinks. Highly recommend checking it out.“

“I really enjoyed my visit here. I’m new to cigars but I felt comfortable, and El Borracho is the best cigar I’ve had so far. I’m glad they have a patio because I wouldn’t be able to sit inside. It was a relaxing experience and I’ll be back.“

“This is a nice Kareoke bar with private lounges.

It is nicely designed.

It is great for small and large group.

I did not try any food. I am not sure it is available.

You'll have a good time here if you come with your Karaoke friends.“

“I am pissed that the bartender changed the music from the juke box. I wasted $5. Never heard a single because she listened to what she wanted. Third time this has happened. I am not coming back here and keeping my friends from going here after this.“

“I came in late afternoon/early evening on July 4th. They were busier than expected and the staff absolutely crushed it. Shoutout to Chris behind the bar and John in the kitchen. Great people, great at their jobs. Never had a bad experience here and I’ve been coming in on and off for years!“

“I LOVE THIS PLACE! I feel like I belong here. The clientele are a whole-ass vibe. The owners are some of the most kind-hearted and grounded people I've ever known. If you live in lower SE Portland....you will feel at home here. The staff are all lively characters and make you feel welcome.“

“It’s like partying in a cool friends backyard! Eclectic and jus super fun!“

“The food is really good and everything is well priced, but the service is non-existent. The one female bartender seemed irritated with us when we walked in. We sat at a table and ordered the food from the QR code. We also got our own water which I'm fine with. But other than bringing over the one n/a drink I ordered, neither bartender checked on us or asked how our food was. We got two salads and two sandwiches so plenty of time to check on us. The only interaction we had was with the male bartender who waa much nicer and brought our sandwiches, but still never checked in. When you close your check on your phone it defaults to 25%. For what? Why would I leave 25% for someone who didn't even speak with me and when Imt doing pretty much half the work myself? 25% is a full service restaurant gratuity and honestly If they interacted with us even a little bit I would have been fine with that. The kitchen staff brought our first food round out and they were very nice. We came in on a Friday night and it was pretty empty, (us at a table and a couple people at the bar), so it is not like they were too busy to engage. I have been here once before and it was a much better experience so not writing this place off, but tonights experience was sub par. Food was bomb though.“

“We love Gresham My Bar! Food is usually pretty good but the best part is Ross the bartender! He’s like a good buddy! Very attentive, quick service, remembers our names…. The best!!“

“Had girls brunch so much fun and very friendly staff…“

“A Portland institution. Back from closure. Cool place to hang with decent beer garden and pool table. Great happy hour with draft beer at $2 a pint.“

“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.“

“great atmosphere and food“
