Our favorite pizza in Portland. Wood fired. Simple. Fresh. Unique pairings. Nice selection of draft beer you probably haven't heard of if you're not from around here.

This former elementary school makes for a really fun and unique place for entertainment and adult beverages. Several different bars, a restaurant, movie theater , soaking pool and more. On a chilly day check out the "detention room bar" or "honors bar" for a cozy wood stove experience.

My favorite local brewer hands down. Their flagship IPA is probably the best IPA I've ever had......in a city full of exceptional IPA's. This is their first and original location. It's small but you're going for the beer. Although, the food is very well done too. Order the "omnivore" mac 'n cheese, it's insane!

Awesome selection of infused vodkas and creative cocktail menu. Always mellow and fun and often a DJ spinning chill beats in the evenings. Their "gourmet taco" menu is an experience. Go hungry and try lots of different tacos, you'll be happy you did.
