Got a chance to check out Straightaway on my way to Portland on the plane. I liked their old fashion so much that the flight attendants noticed and they told me about the tasting room. Met a friend here, and we had an amazing time. The gentleman who helped us was so patient and knowledgeable. He helped us navigate the menu, and I decided on their flight. I let him pick the ones that I wanted, and they did not disappoint. My favorite part was the fact that you got little snacks with each of them. Each of the snacks had a unique taste, and they were locally made! My favorite was the lintiq that had a little something special to it that made it way too easy to sip, and so of course, I had to take a bottle home!The tasting room was like stepping back in time with the velvet covered seats and gold. They do close at 8 pm, so be aware. Also, if you check in on Yelp, they give you a free sparkling cocktail. Do it early as once they do last call, it's last call. So, I will be back to use that cocktail coupon!

Ruined my Alaskan flight. The ol fashion tasted like bottom shelf whiskey with artificial orange flavor -" in a can."

Super cute cocktail bar, with in-house pre-made (quite strong) cocktails! Servers were super friendly, knowledgeable, and fun! Would definitely go back again for a class.

What's up: Our next stop on our distillery tour! We just came from whiskey, now we're checking out the cocktails at Straightaway! Parking: Street parking. Environment: The place was cozy and decorated for Christmas! We were welcomed as soon as we entered and the staff were really friendly. They gave us recommendations and even provided a free sample to try out. Everyone in our group found something that they liked and we even grabbed some of their bottles and canned cocktails to go. Restrooms were down the hall, to the right. What was ordered: - Lintik sample - Oregon Old Fashioned - Nitro Espresso Martini - Paper Plane - We grabbed the cans of Nitro Express Martini and a bottle of Paper Plane to go Yay/Nay/Meh: Yay. We liked them so much that we came back one more time before we continued our trip...just to grab a couple more cocktails to go lol. This was a friendly place to hang out at and grab a drink. Plus, we were able to finish off our Distillery Row Passport with their help! Credit cards are accepted.

JUST GO!!! My bf and I have standing date night twice a week and always looking for new things to try. We took their holiday cocktail mixology class and had so much fun! Not only do u get to have shots of the cocktail between making your own but the staff was so fun, energetic, and upbeat. It's a small group setting and you get to share tables w other people. Great if ur a social butterfly like me! We loved it so much we're signing up for another class w friends and we even joined their sipper club! I also wanna give a shout out cause the class we wanted was previously sold out but they had a cancellation and called me to let me book it before releasing it to the public. Top tier service all around and such a great experience. I'm so bummed we didn't take picts cause we were having too much fun!

The two-hour mixology class is awesome. They feature various themes (we went to the winter themed event). The "classes" are so much fun and structured such that a beginner can understand what's going on and an expert can pick up new tips. The best part is that you get to drink your creations - and the staff ensures they turn out well. Strongly recommend.

Super nice staff. Really good cocktails. Highly recommend the spiked cocoa flight. :)

Such a wonderful experience! All of the Accompani liquors are fantastic. You can taste and see the care put into each spirit and vermouth. While visiting I also had a jalapeño cheddar Dapper Dog and it was quality. You can't go wrong with any of their aperitifs but do yourself a favor and level up your bar with their sweet vermouth, it will bring your Boulevardier and Manhattans to the next level! If you don't find yourself drinking it all straight before making your cocktails. All staff was beyond helpful and super knowledgeable. 5 stars all the way!

I've been here a couple times now and I love their amazing cocktails! If you read the ingredients, they use a lot of local, high-quality ingredients (ie Jacobson salt and Ranger chocolate). They also serve small snacks from local businesses (the Furikaki snack mix is so addicting!) and artisan hot dogs. The staff are all very friendly and frequently offer samples if you're unsure on what to order. I highly recommend trying the boozy hot chocolate flight, it was perfect on a cold, rainy evening!

Straightaway has by far one of the best products on the market. I enjoy every sip and you can really taste the quality in the ingredients. I'm so happy that I was introduced to this brand On my way back from Costa Rica on the plane. Keep up the great work!

Fun tasting room and shop!There's not much seating inside, but it was not busy when we came late afternoon on a Saturday.My husband tried a flight of cocktails, and we both got free cocktails with yelp check in! The flight was fun, with lots of tasty snacks! We snagged a few canned cocktails on our way out - the Apicco Spritz and a sampler pack of various cocktails. Will recommend to friends!
