Lounges in Portland, OR

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

“Absolutely loved the Multnomah Whiskey Library! The ambiance is warm, unique, and inviting, and everything from the food to the drinks was excellent. The service was fantastic as well—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Such a great overall experience and definitely a place worth visiting in Portland!“

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

“Teardrop Lounge in the Pearl District was a great spot to experience true mixology. The drinks are exceptionally well-crafted, creative, and packed with complex, vibrant flavors. Their menu is organized by flavor profile, making it easy to find a drink tailored to your taste.

The service can slow down a bit when the place fills up on busy weekend nights, but the quality of the cocktails can help make up for the wait.“

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

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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!!“

“Honestly pretty much the only bar I go to in Portland any more. It's just perfect in every way. Great music. Incredible bartenders. Best cocktails, but also a shot ski! Also the happy hour!

Edit: I forgot the food. Don't miss the board with the daily specials they're so good.

Why aren't you here right now?“

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

“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 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

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

“This is more a neighborhood dive bar than a lounge.
The space is relaxed and cozy.
The decor is heavy on odd, weird and disconnected items. It's a lot. It's a vibe.
Go for the booze and cocktails not the food.
The food is okay bae food.
I recommend you check it out for meeting friends for a drink and conversation.“

“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 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.“

“I do not recommend Star Theatre! We went to see MC Chris August 9th 2025 at 9pm. We did get to the venue when we get there (me and my husband.) We hand the bouncer/security our IDs and he checks my husband's super fast when he gets to mine he takes a rather long time. He was a tall male, facial piercing, hat, around six foot, blonde beard, mid size man. He then tells me its fake. I tell him it unfortunately isn't but I try not to be too aggressive or argumentative. My husband then hands him his ID back and ask him what the difference between the two are and what he thinks makes it fake. He shines the light through them again and then refuses to tell us why he thought it was fake just thay it was fake and he didn't believe use but we could get a ticket refund online. I try to get a refund as my partner will jot go in without me and I do not know how else to prove its valid. But they won't refund me because it wasn't an issue with the tickets just the venue. So my partner the smart man he is calls non emergency and explains the situation they said when they get a free patrol car they will send them our way. So we wait and the bouncer changes so we try again thinking maybe that bouncer just doesn't like me. The younger guy looks at our IDs and right as he is about to let us in the old bouncer comes out and tells him he cannot let us in that my ID is fake. The younger guy ask how to tell because he's never seen a fake before again the first bouncer just shines the light and says "I think its fake she can't come in but he's fine." We asked the younger guy if there was a manager above the other guy he said unfortunately no and asked if he could explain how mine is fake. He said he had no clue but he couldn't go against the other bouncer as he was above him. We explained we weren't mad with the younger bouncer we understood. We did tell the old bouncer we had called patrol to prove my ID valid. Finally the Patrol pulls up (not their fault its Saturday night I am sure they were very busy.) Then cop takes both our IDs runs a light over both and then runs them both through the system both came up valid. He then goes the the bouncer and explains my ID is indeed valid. The bouncer is SO QUITE. He simply says "stage is to the left." I give a little glare and say thank you as I snatched my ID back. Overall we missed 1hour of our concert. The concert was good. The police were so sweet. The bouncer was a total JERK! and in the end he never even scanned our tickets...I have been to Bars, Dispensarys and 21+ venues all with this ID before and never had a problem.“

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

“When living in Portland this was my default place to connect with a friend, or when I wanted to be around people while also reading or doing some work. The kava is always excellent, with minimal sleep disturbance like some of them can cause me.“

“Sound guy is very professional 👍“

“Jade does a great job! 🙂👍“

“This place is a gem. It has a welcoming atmosphere with a blend of vintage and modern decor. High quality, delicious specials and drinks, relaxing live music and a sweet little corner bistro atmosphere. The proprietors made me feel like they wanted me to stick around for awhile. Definitely the kind of place where one could become a regular with ease.“

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

“This bar food is not your average bar food. It truly deserves to be established apart from the stereotypical bar food. The slow burger is phenomenal! The cook knows exactly how to cook a burger to your request! He knows what medium rare truly is and it never is off and I come often for lunch. Even if you’re not looking for somewhere to drink. Come by here and grab a bite to eat you will not be disappointed. I would share my photo of the food, but I ate it too fast before I realized I wanted to leave a review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

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

“Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.“

“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???“

“Gin gimlets were delicious“

“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.“

“Excellent cocktail and ever better service. It’s hard to find a classic martini done right in Portland. This place made the perfect dry martini, filled to the brim. If you want an excellent cocktail in a classy ambient atmosphere with great service, look no further. Whether you choose the Olive or Twist, you’ll be happy!“

“Very hopping local spot with decent selection of sports and cocktails. Plenty of non-alcoholic drinks as well.

It is small, seats maybe 40-45. Prices are reasonable and it has good vibes.

If you're in the area it is worth checking out.“

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

“I went a couple weeks ago with my friends while visiting Oregon
I’m still thinking about how good my coffee was and the same goes for my friends
10/10
The barista who took the order was nonchalant but wow he made our drinks so beautiful and yummy!“

“great atmosphere and food“

“so much fun. great rooms, can sing all along while requesting songs from my phone, changing lights in the room. they also have the best big soft pretzels with cheese, great staff super friendly and upbeat, the bathrooms are clean and put together creatively... great for groups wanting to sing and have fun.“

“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 🥰“

“One of our favorite places in Portland! It’s a great place to have a cigar and a drink, and their food is good too. We particularly like the outdoor seating area, it’s shaded and right on the sidewalk.

Their cigar selection is always good, but you can also bring your own. They provide the ash trays.“

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

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

“Food is always good, bartender almost always good! Sometimes that person bringing out the food has a little bit of extra attitude, not sure why. People that haven't been there before are always aware that you have to go to the bar to order, just a little bit of grace explaining that to people would go a long way!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“The Limelight is my go to happy hr place! Their menu is fantastic and the food is some of the best happy hour food I have had around town. Their Limelight Harvest Salad is always fresh and filling and adding a little protein makes it a complete meal.
Being a whiskey girl, the cherry infused Maker's Mark Manhattan never disappoints, but beware, one does it's job.
Lastly, I have met some amazing people there (and their dogs) which only adds to each amazing memory created there.“

“I was staying here and so I ordered a meal to go, since they don't provide room service. I had the brisket sandwich, it was ok, not a lot of flavor and certain bites were a little tough but overall it was decent. Fries were crisp and plentiful, but perhaps a bit too much salt seasoning on them.“

“Seat yourself with QR code to order if sitting outside. The “Sunday gravy” beef braised rigatoni reminded me of my italian grandmother’s cooking when I was younger. Great salad, artichoke dip, and affogato as well! I love your Pizza Mondays - pizza is great!!“

“GREAT VENUE! For a geriatric crowd. They feature a ton of Afro-beat and funk grooves basically every weekend or any day I feel like dancing. 💃🏻 🕺“

“I think the spaceroom will recognize my name :) But personally this is the best food place ever! The French fries- “chefs kiss” and the drag brunches are so fun! And on top it’s like you’re eating in space.“
