50 Best Cocktail Bars near West Linn

“We love this place! We eat here regularly, and truly enjoy the food, cocktails, service, and ambiance. The black cod miso yaki is our favorite dish - it's delicious and I highly recommend it. The veggie and shrimp tempura is the best I've ever had, with an interesting mix of eggplant, mushrooms, squash, lotus root, and onions - all lightly battered and served with a delightful dipping sauce (pour the dipping sauce on the black cod, it's so good). The cocktails, especially the Japanese 75 and the shiso gin drink (I can't think of the name), are well-balanced and mixed properly, and are very yummy. I tell everyone I know to try this place! Some of the food can seem adventurous if you're not familiar with Japanese fare, but it's all delicious and beautifully presented. Finally, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the owner is a very sweet and funny lady. All around, Sushi Kuni is a great dining experience and I highly recommend checking it out.“

“Eldens has a great atmosphere with friendly staff and delicious food! ( their beet salad and homemade chicken noodle soup is amazing!)“

“What a lovely place! A perfect spot for a cozy lunch on a blustery day. And the food was fantastic, mushroom soup, chicken pot pie, truffle fries (amazing), and creme brulee for dessert. It's so easy to get there, we'll be back soon!“

“always a great experience“

“I've been going to 503 for years. The food is well prepared and consistent, and the staff is exceptional. The owner really enjoys good wine and there are lovely selections by the glass and bottle. Periodically there are special discounts on exceptional bottles of wine available...“

“New favorite spot, this place far exceeded my expectations!!! I found this just looking around Google maps and was so delighted when I finally made it in. The sound system is out of this world, deep layered bass, super chill music, they played from a chill Spotify Playlist to some really cool records. The system they have is beautiful, the inside is gorgeous, the drinks were incredible and food looked great too!! Definitely a new fav.“

“One of the chillest Foxy's around! Good vibes, awesome workers, great prices on drinks and smokes. If you need a more relaxed night than what most pubs can offer, then this is your spot. They have an awesome lounge area that is hardly ever used so it's always an awesome choice. Definitely give them a look cause they are so much more than what you expect a gambling den to be.“

“The bar tender went out of his way to help me. My car has a wind break that covers the back seat. I took the piece out of the car and he stored it for me so I would not have to go back to the room. Then we were late getting back from dinner, he stayed until we got back. As expected from the Crown Plaza. The best service.“

“Go for the Vibe.

My friend and I enjoyed our visit to this bar.
It has a fun and welcoming vibe.

The bar decor is eclectic and a bit traditional dive bar.

The bath rooms were clean.

Don't expect much from the food. The food is bar food, not great, not bad. Nothing special. My battered fish was slightly on the burned side. The bar tender gavee half off the over priced fish.“

“10 stars! One of my absolute favorite restaurants the food is fabulous. Every time we are in Lake Oswego we stop for breakfast or lunch.“

“This was our first time here and we were truly impressed. The hostess was awesome, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was perfect. There's outside seating as well. I had the hand breaded chicken stripes y husband had fish and chips. Three breading was the best I've ever had and the chicken was tender and juicy. The prices are average for this area. They have a happy hour menu for Sun-Thurs that's for lots of choices. We will definitely return.“

“Food! Service! Atmosphere! And Feeling the immediate homey comfort by staff and customers, was just what two weary travelers needed. Met our niece there for breakfast and totally a joy of a cross country trip. Have been in many places across the U S A; and this one is one of major memorable treats. BTW my niece talked me into to trying your Fabulous (Homemade) Green Monster Sauce on my egg omelette and I havent stopped talking or looking for a duplicate since visiting Portland and I live in Ohio! If any one is reading this as a world traveler, believe me when I tell you If you live, or travel in this area, you gotta treat yourself to one of their fabulous stomach filing delicious entries. Really!. Bravo, I never write any kind of reviews in the possitive, I'm old, so I bitch alot. HAHA; But this place so worth the time, the price and contributing to a small family business. Which I totlally look for in any area I visit. I totally believe in supporting family owned local businesses...not the big Guys! Bravo Midpoint. If I lived in the area you'd know me by name as a regular! God Bless. And hope this will inspire the owner into marketing her Green Monster Sauce. One of the best out there.

“Amy was great, we came in after dinner for some cocktails, and she definitely treated us right“

“Travel the world through cased meat! BEST“

“I love this place! I could get a cup of coffee anywhere but this shop has become more than just great food and drinks - it’s a place for neighbors to gather and the owners have fully invested themselves in our community. Love the breakfast sandwiches, my daily coffee and Friday evenings on their back lawn with a beer and friends!“

“First time visiting this coffee shop. I'm sorry I didn't visit sooner. Was able to smell the great food, and see a toasted club sando being assembled. Out front a small sidewalk table with 2 eating small plates and large coffees. Inside were several small tables with a few customers reading and chatting. It was 1/2 hour before closing at 3:30pm. I ordered two med. Drinks to go. I was greeted promptly and waited a very short time. The coffee's were wonderful. The surprise was the many shaded tables for 4 out back on the patio. The prices are a great value nowadays as well! We're coming back often... No more corporate sugar chains....lol“

“There's a lot of classy joints out there classy joints. You know, good bars, great service. Japanese whiskeys hiding in the nooks and crannies. The Gibson, though, truly outstanding service beyond beyond like, how would you even qualify or quantify the excellence of Bella? Not beyond measure, but like second to none service. Mixology, respect and love and just everything all stirred up (or shaken if thats your preference) into one perfect experience with a Christmas bow.
The Gibson has some skill dare I say genius with mixing, service and ambiance all around. I love what they are doing here.“

“Dropped in for their Mercury Sandwich Week special. Came away imprwzsed by the custoner service, range of cocktails, and quality of great Italian food. Definitely worth a visit but can be busy if there a show next door at the Clinton St Theater.“

“If you are looking for hand crafted chocolates, this is the place to go. Just incredible!“

“Loved them in the Airstream. Love them even more now, just South of Tacoms St..SoTac❤️“

“We have lived down the street for a decade and today was our first visit! We have missed out… this place was 🤩 amazing! It has become our go to weekend breakfast spot!!! Love it“

“A craft cocktail bar in a suburban Hilton. Does the ambiance leave something to be desired? Yes, but… the cocktail menu and drink quality here make it a quirky and well worth it visit. The head bartender here is clearly well trained and talented. He introduced himself and explained that he creates the seasonal menu himself. The ingredients are high quality, including homemade syrups and shrubs. He made an on the spot mocktails for our group as well as the amazing cocktails.“

“I literally live here, please bring bread, leave at back door, quack.“

“Great place to come check out the South Waterfront and enjoy a wonderful selection of adult beverages and excellent food staff is wonderful they have many things to offer trivia night , karaoke,video lottery (only place in SWF) you can even play a round of golf many courses available bring your best clubs! Good times, good people nothing better to put a smile on your face😁🍻🥂“

“My wife and I came here searching for something good for lunch...we were not disappointed. This place was phenomenal..I had the pastrami, it was full of great flavor and my wife had the turkey swiss cranberry..she could not stop raving about this sandwich. Give this place a try..you will leave very satisfied!“

“I always enjoy Oswego Grill. I brought my friend and her teenage daughter there. My friend was celebrating her 65th Birthday. The meal was great and the Farrell's Banana Split was a special birthday treat! The only ding in my mind is how dark it is inside - day or evening. Otherwise, it's often my go-to for a nice lunch, dinner, or happy hour when I'm in the Lake Oswego area.“

“Such a beautiful experience dining here. The atmosphere was incredibly cozy and welcoming, the kind of place you instantly feel comfortable settling into. Every dish was outstanding, thoughtful, flavorful, and clearly made with so much care. What truly elevated the evening was the team. Everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely lovely, creating an experience that felt both special and effortless. Already looking forward to coming back.“

“This is some of the only great and authentic Mexican food in the Portland area. I’m from California and have been struggling to find a *real* taqueria that doesn’t water down their salsa and doesn’t have brussel sprouts on the menu. Their Rajas Quesadilla is bomb af. 10/10 would recommend!“
