“Highly would recommend. That sums up the experience. The owner behind the counter is a gentleman. He knew his taps like the back of his hand. He was of the upmost polite despite my "ignorance". This place is welcoming. Now the taste of the beer on tap, #10 was good for a wheat beer. There are many options here for all enthusiast or people looking for whatever their pallet is keen to.“
“Such a fun, welcoming little bar! The food is absolutely delicious, the cocktails are lovingly crafted, and the HUGE game selection makes this place the best hidden gem on Main Street. Head up the stairs next to Versus and check it out for yourself!“
“Talk about customer service it's one of the best lottery they have a nice quaint area inside with beautiful bar a dance floor a outside with bench seats the staff there are so helpful kind and great customer service probably the best in oregonWheelchair accessibility: It has a flat thresh hold so eazy for wheelchair to access establishment“
“I wish I could give the Atmosphere 10 stars. This place is such a vibe. This spot was recommended so I stopped in to try to get my brewery’s beer on draft, and I chatted with Mattias (sp?) the bartender. But absolutely love the cozy atmosphere, the music, the fireplace on one tv and ski videos on another. I can tell the backyard must be a hit in summer! Can’t wait to come back.“
“Had a wonderful dinner here the other day! We sat at the bar & was met with exceptional service from the bartender. He made sure we were taken cared of & not forgotten. The Bloody Mary he whipped up was delicious! The pasta I got was also great & so were the fried pickle spears(seasonal menu item). My bf got the burger & he said it was good. Great place for a lil date night or a girls night!“
“Wu-Rons is the new best place for ramen in Portland. I almost don’t want to tell people because it was so easy and fast to get a bowl of their Nagahama Tonkotsu ramen. The menu is simple and authentic. The old Noraneko space it resides in has been simplified as well, making the space easier to be in while maintaining its dignity as a spot to get a solid bowl of ramen. It is cliche for someone like me, a 30 year old nerd, to say “I’ve had a lot of ramen” but it’s true. Across Japan and throughout Portland. Ramen restaurants stateside often struggle to present the real experience of one of Japan’s key foods. It doesn’t need to be elevated or exotic or chic to be special. Solid broth. Solid noodles. Solid chashu. Assembled cleanly. Something a truck driver traveling through Fukuoka could get on a rainy day. That’s Wu-Rons and I can’t wait to go back.“
“I don't know if the service or food is better but both are incredible. I haven't had better pasta. The albacore bruschetta was one of the best appetizers I've ever hadm so was the burrata was this fry bread. Go back and get something else again. It's so good.“
“Went here for the first time on Tuesday. Great spot for beer in a charming old house! The staff was very nice and I could tell they take a lot of pride in the beautiful space they've created.And Erica's Soul Food cart on the back patio was Delicious!“
“My partner and I come here every now and again, the server Tia is always so friendly and patient with us while figuring out our drinks and the comedy shows on Thursday nights are hands down the best and most well curated “underground” comedy in Portland. 10/10 would recommend if looking for a great taproom.“
“Thank you Ann for a fabulous experience for the 2024 Westland high school baseball auction. You went above and beyond to accommodate our large group and the food was amazing. We look forward to holding our next event with you soon. I highly recommend anyone looking for an event space to, go see, and she will definitely take care of you.Dietary restrictions: Handmade an amazing vegan dish for our event.“
“Stopped in a couple of days ago after a long, cold hike in the rain. Even though they had finished serving coffee for the day, Jesse was so nice to make me a pour-over hot coffee - just what I needed to warm up, and such a great cup of coffee! ☺️ Will definitely visit again next time I'm in the area!“
“Easily the best burger in the metro area. They make a smash burger but like anything in Portland. That is not true. It is an almost smash burger more like a pressed burger does not have the lacey char or anything that makes a good smash burger. Also second best burger in Oregon. Junkyard is better. No this burger does not compare to smash burgers in Los Angeles.“
“Best taphouse in the Corvallis/Albany area. There are always new beer selections and there are at least a few beers of each type (i.e. IPA, stout, lager, etc.). The staff is friendly and helpful. The new outdoor area is also well done and super cozy. 100% recommend stopping by for a drink. You can also bring in or order outside food.“
“My favorite neighborhood bar! Really great selection of beers, cider, and wine – not to mention all of the beverages you can snag in the fridge if you're on-the-go. Super nice staff, really accommodating, mellow vibe, and overall just great ambiance. Give this spot a shot!“
“This was an amazing find in a city filled with coffee shops. There was nothing stuffy about the place and the service was impeccable. We sat in the window and watched locals stroll in greeted by first name... and we were treated just like we were daily customers as well. If you’re in Portland and you’re near 40 LBS make it a stop!“
“Best fish and chips in Portland! Such a perfectly light and crisp batter. Awesome fresh fish. The tartar sauce and coleslaw are super great too. Staff and owners are super nice and friendly. Great neighborhood place. They also have a great selection of beer and cider on tap.“
“I had my wedding welcome party and rehearsal at ForeLand and they were just lovely. They were so accommodating throughout the whole process of planning, with being flexible on the timing and hours as well as the decorations and music. Our guests LOVED the venue - it felt cozy and intimate but was out of this world cute and beautiful. The beer and wine were all absolutely incredible. It started off my wedding weekend on an amazing note and I couldn’t be happier with the choice. Thank you David for everything - you are an amazing human and ForeLand is just lovely.“
“My handsome husband and I absolutely ADORE this new find for us. I’ve lived in Aloha 20+ years and this place is exactly what I want in a neighborhood hangout, but have never seen until tonight. First thing in the door we were greeted, welcomed, told about the menu and invited to sit wherever we liked! Talk about feeling welcomed and immediate hospitality! The atmosphere was also fantastic—subdued and relaxing with agreeable lighting. But the cocktails were ABSOLUTELY EPIC! We had our socks knocked off by the flavor and variety of the cocktails, and then the presentation was just so incredibly appealing to boot! Fresh herbs (rosemary) in one drink, dried herbs (lavender) in another made the drinks delicious AND visually stunning to behold. Prices were very reasonable, so we will be coming back again and again to sample absolutely everything! 10/10 and we’ll be singing the praises of The 649 to absolutely everybody we know!“
Brewery • $$
“Showed up late in the evening again, barely making last call. It was empty but had a good conversation with the only other customer and staff. Only had the Japanese lager in keeping with my final last days in Portland, no more hopps for awhile. They also had an MKIII in the corner I didn't get a chance to feed. Worth a trip if in the area“
“This is a nice and cozy place to have beer with friends and watch sports. It is not a huge place but has a fantastic selection of beers. One other thing to note is the restroom is very clean and spacious. This is one of my local bars where I go often with friends to have a good time. I also love the comfy armchairs beside the window. Staff is also friendly. Couldn't ask for more!“
“What a lovely establishment with beautiful details and a welcoming and inviting vibe. From the chocolates on the counter to the carefully chosen tins of fish, to the friendly bartender and the delightful rose. Bar Botellon is a gem, where they really make you feel like you're the only customer in the place. This is my new favorite stop for a glass of wine and some delicious handmade tapas (try the marinated cheese and the sardines!!!!!!) I will be back!“
Chicken Wings • $
“Love coming here. Whether you want fire wings or an a vegan option, this is the place for you. It gets busy, but food is pretty quick and everyone is friendly. The environment is fun and food is delicious, you will not be disappointed! The sugarcane bone vegan wings are one of the best wing alternatives around!“
“You can have all the atmosphere in the world but it Don't Mean a Thing if the food is not Rockin' I'll go back to make sure this wasn't a one hit wonder but I've Got a Feelin' that it will once again Feel Like the First Time!“

“Listen, I live nearby and used to get Spitz ALL the time. The fries are AMAZING and most of the staff are AWESOME. The drinks are also super yummy. But recently I've been forgoing it for several reasons:1) portion size has decreased SIGNIFICANTLY on the bowls. Normally when I'd order a bowl to go, it would touch the top of the lid. Now, it's disappointingly half-full (or pessimisticly, half-empty). It just doesn't really feel like it's worth the pricetag, especially not with the food carts around the corner. Except the fries. The fries are DEFINITELY worth the money.2) I'm still peeved about an order I made a few months ago, which was a GF order (which I have automatically saved in my online orders to make it so, and double checked the note was there). Since I'd never had an issue before, I grabbed my bag, and I walked all the way home. When I opened it, I realized that they had put bread on it (obviously not GF). Since the bread was smashed down and touching everything AND I am gluten intolerant, I called to say that there had been an issue with the order and the woman on the other phone blatantly did not believe me??? She had me walk all the way back with my order, acted like I was a huge inconvenience when she pulled my bowl out of the bag, and made me wait like a naughty child before FINALLY remaking the order. Like the Millennial I am, *I* ended up apologizing profusely for receiving an incorrect order which could have made me really sick. She, on the other hand, kind of just thrusted my re-made food to me.Like, I had literally been going there about twice a week... There was no need to treat me like a thief or a Karen, OR make me show proof BEFORE remaking the order. It left SUCH a bad taste in my mouth.Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free“
“Great hole in the wall place. Surprised they weren’t busy.Really great space with indoor and outdoor seating. The beer is delicious. The food was even better. 9/10 on the food.All in all a great little place that should be enjoyed and should be busier than it was for a Saturday afternoon.“
“Very relaxed, chill vibes here. Bring your own food!!! They do not have a kitchen or menu. Just drinks on tap and in cans/bottles. Had awesome service, the bartender let us have a tiny sample to taste things before we ordered drinks.Per friendly. ?Check-in on the Tualatin Valley: The Ale Passport app while you are there.“
“I’ve been coming here since they opened. Hard to find a better place to grab a beer in Portland. The employee owners will take the time to learn what you like and always steer you in the right direction. They are absolute curators of tasty beverages either on tap or from the cooler. How crazy is it to have almost 50 reviews and all 5 stars? All you need to know. Thank you for a real good time!“
“Drove by today and decided to do something different for our usual take out and movie Fridays. I am SO glad we did. The menu had so many things that sounded amazing, my husband and I spent 30 minutes trying to decide what to try first. We ended up ordering: MIANG KHAM PAD KHE MAO YUM NUA MEKHONG CUBA LIBRE EVERYTHING was authentic, fresh and flavorful and the staff even called me during their rush to ensure that we had all of our items. As someone who is a business in the industry, that was next level service.“
“Great place for snacks and drinks.Stopped by here after visiting the Nike employee store. They have a great selection of beers, ciders, and nonalcoholic drinks. I got a flight and sampled several different beers on draft. Highly recommended! They have a vast selection from local breweries. You can’t go wrong with any of the options.We got the half pound wings and fries. Again, they have many different flavor options for everyone’s taste buds. We got the salt and pepper which comes with jalapeños and onions.And the price? Affordable. I’d definitely visit again and recommend this spot to others.“
“Great beer selection and a warm, comfortable environment. The folks serving were very nice and knowledgeable. Fellow below mentioned some pilsner they had being outrageously priced, which is pretty unfair. I appreciated their response explaining they price based on the same margin metrics for every keg they receive, and some will naturally be more expensive than others. That's kind of just how to die roll works with a rotating tap list, and the good news is there's plenty of other beers to choose from if one misses for you.“
“I truly love this place. Both Andy and Dennis (owners) are solid guys and always are friendly. As is Matt when he fills in. There's always a great selection of beers and cider on tap and they just added some Monster malt beverages. They don't have food but do have vendors that come with a food truck and you can bring your own food in. They do have chips and other snacks however. Overall a great place to sit and relax.“
“This was one of the better meals my husband and I enjoyed while visiting Portland. The walls are covered in Mexican art. There are plenty of tables and a nice bar to sit at. The food was delicious but not gigantic portions. My husband ordered the street tacos from the happy hour menu. The chicken inside the tortilla was as delicious and seasoned perfectly. He also had tortilla chips and salsa which you had to pay for separately. I had the Carnitas plate with beans and a salad- Very tasty and the Carnitas were very moist. The staff wasn't overly friendly but the food made up for it! tried the Cadillac margarita it was a little weak. Feeling like Mexican? Definitely give this place a go.“
“Prices were spot on! A flight was only $10. My favorites were the cherry limeade and the pumpkin spice. They have board games to play and a couple arcade games. It was incredibly busy when we went. Seating is indoor and covered outdoor. This place does not serve food, it's either bring in your own or get delivery from near by places. Definitely will be visiting again.“
“I have been coming here for years. Recently I went to pick up cans and there was nothing fresh in the fridge. Only some that were canned back in September thought that was really weird. A lot of guest taps as well, not sure if they're uninspired or don't care enough to make more of their own beers. I was about to come in a buy $60 worth of cans to take home but there aren't any. Owner is really nice though so I'll try again later.“
“This is a great local brewery. Our go to neighborhood location. This is a video game theme brewery, pinball games, and has a small outdoor deck in the back and small outdoor patio in the front. This is a dog friendly establishment for well-behaved dogs :) We have brought our dog and kiddo and it has been great. Beer is definitely solid. This used to be an old bank and the taps are inside what used to be a bank vault! Very friendly staff.“
“Amazing tap list with tons of variety across styles. Not just beer; they even had a hard lemonade, a hard seltzer and a few interesting ciders, plus some cocktails. Mostly PNW brews. The bottle selection isn't as big or varied, but who needs that when you can taste the rainbow and get a crowler fill of it?“
“This is another gem in the McMenamins line of fun, historical establishments - and by far my favorite! Been here many times over the years - actually even had my very first lobster roll EVER here (as a special item years ago) and it was amazing. The vibe is so quirky - you definitely feel like you’re walking the halls of your old elementary school - except there are bars and a lively restaurant and even a brewery haha!! The staff has always been super welcoming and friendly. The food at their main Courtyard Restaurant has always been great. On my last visit (July 2023), I had their chicken salad sandwich on croissant and it was SO GOOD!! Even their tater tots were perfectly cooked. And they even have some of the best iced tea I’ve had outside of the south! Their menu changes seasonally so it’s always a treat to try something new. After eating, leave time to explore - the grounds are just gorgeous and you’ll get lost in the nostalgia as you wander around the old school’s hallways. They have several bars - one is huge and has total steampunk vibes. They have a small hotel and a salt water pool - even the bathrooms are beautiful. I’d definitely like to stay here next time - but I imagine it can be a tad spooky at night haha! The school opened back in 1915 so it’s a historic building. The wall art is gorgeous and there are lots of info signs and historical pics scattered around. It’s in a good location in north Portland with plenty of parking and easy to find. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in the area!“
“My wife and I finally stopped by and it was 10/10 experience! The servers were awesome, super simple to be able to order (right from your table QR code) and someone quickly brings you your food. Worked really efficiently and staff was super nice! The beer was reaaaaaallllyy great, and the food was fantastic! May be the best nachos I've had in Portland, and the Lamb burger was On a side note they have these really cute and fun Jell-O shots Definitely come here!“

“Love love LOVE the Traveling Taphouse/Yard Bar!!! It’s the perfect place to go on a hot summer night. There’s games, open spaces, great beer, and the staff is really fun! Lulu’s Kitchen is attached and serves amazing Mexican food. This place is the best!!!“
“stopped in for a snack while visiting from Canada and the staff went truly above and beyond to give us advice on cool places to go and things to see while we were in Portland. we followed their advice and had some good adventures, highly appreciated :)“
“We started with the loaded brisket fries and they did not disappoint. Everyone dug in and they way we polished them off you would think that we hadnt eaten for a week...they were that good. The brisket sandwich has to be made with some of the best brisket that I have ever had. It was juicy with just enough crunch to make you realize how long it must have smoked for. We also got the Portobello mushroom sandwich which was a big hit. The portions where ample and just thinking about I cant wait to go back.“
“The biscuits and gravy with Portuguese sausages was fire. I stopped in here for Brunch and was pleasantly surprised by this cozy bar right on Sandy. The church theme decor was very elegant and welcoming and the art are the ceiling is magnificent. Plus they had Dodgeball playing in the projector.“
“Fantastic 'market' destination with food and drinks, don't let the quiet street front put you off. The Taproom bar has great selection of local craft beers and incredible cocktails. Awesome service as well - learnt loads about good spots in Portland to hang out.“
“Taplandia is the place to go if you’re looking for a tap house that really cares about each individual that walks through the door. They have successfully created a space that all can enjoy! Yummy food, great drinks, and always a good time!!“
