Reviews
This is my favorite spot to go and write. Cozy, low key vibes, community oriented space. And I love being surrounded by books. It's quirky to be sure, but in a very charming way. It's also quiet enough to actually have a conversation which is something I've struggled to find in Portland's bustling cafe/bar scene. I always get the hummus plate as it's a perfect snack. The hummus is really good, tastes homemade. The book collection is eclectic and fun to peruse.
The one thing I don't love is that the three times I've been in, the radio is what's playing overhead, and the constant ads are pretty annoying when trying to read or write. Luckily it's not too loud and it doesn't stop me from going. Just something I hope they change at some point.
Good food and tap selections with cocktails. The place seemed a little outdated and run down but it added to the charm and coziness. I loved seeing people reading or writing all over and I started up come great chats with fellow book lovers while there. Overall fun experience and good stop! :)
Come here to enjoy great drinks and delicious simple food amongst cozy bookshelves. Huge bonus that it's open late in a city where everything is shut down by 8pm!
This place is special—a vibe unlike any other bar in Portland. It's a real cozy, creative, community-focused spot with kind and talented staff. There are many interesting characters on both sides of the bar. We need more places like this!
Had an amazing book reading of my novel "Painting Through the Dark" at the Pub. Was accompanied by fabulous fiddler Bronnie Griffin. The staff here are really wonderful. It's such a lively and welcoming spot.
I almost cried when I found this place. It's warm and inviting. The staff who helped me went above and beyond. I loved the little Irish nooks so much! If I lived closer I would be a regular. I'll definitely be back often though.
Ever wanted to hide in the corner with a book but ALSO maybe be kind of social, eavesdrop on conversations (I'm not judging) & have a drink? This is that place! Why go to a regular bar & be the only one with a book when you can literally be surrounded by books...and beer? Exactly. They have fun literary events and did I mention there's poutine too? Don't steal their stuffed animals though...they're for everyone to enjoy.
This pub/ book store/ coffee shop had one of the most unique vibes I've ever walked into.
With a fun event scheduled almost every day of the week, including live performances and a beatnik undertone, I their place is full of personality.
The bartenders were friendly and sassy, their prices are fair, and the seating is couches and corners.
I loved it and I hope you do, too!
