Corner Street Pub is the kind of spot you walk into once and immediately know you'll be back. I ordered the Little Town Burger, and it delivered. The patty was cooked with a slight pink -- exactly how it should be -- juicy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The spring lettuce was an interesting switch from the usual, but it actually worked and gave the burger a fresh bite. It's a solid-sized burger too, definitely filling. Only minor thing was some of the cheese slid off, but nothing that took away from it overall. I also tried the Caesar salad. It didn't come with croutons (not sure if that's intentional), and while the dressing was evenly coated, the Parmesan was a bit heavy and ended up overpowering the rest. Not bad, just not as balanced as it could be. What really sets this place apart is the atmosphere. It's put together in a way that makes you forget you're even in the city -- relaxed, comfortable, and easy to settle into. Service was easily a 10/10. Attentive without being overbearing, respectful, and genuinely friendly -- the kind of staff that makes the experience better without trying too hard. Overall, a really solid spot. I'd come back without hesitation. read more

Great beer, and good service! Staff are friendly here. It's really chill inside, and kind of intimate. The portion of all their food is very healthy and shareable! I'd love to come back next time I'm around. read more

Date of visit: May 9, 2026 Server: Marissa We walked by this fun spot on our way to Screen Door, and then turned around and came back here when the wait at that other establishment was nearing two hours. Marissa was hilarious and fun, which I would like to think is also how people describe me from time to time. My chicken Caesar wrap was excellent, with a flavorful tortilla and crisp lettuce inside. I paired it with the tomato soup, and it made for a lovely meal. Decor is very pub-like, but we found the tables to be comfortable and those facing the windows got to scope out all the dogs passing by, a nice bonus. Really the only false note was the root beer. I don't drink soda often, but appreciate a good locally made RB, however this was a swing and a miss, with a way too heavy taste of sarsaparilla. read more

Backwoods is still my favorite of Pearl brewpubs. Good for us, but maybe bad for them, it was super quiet on a Sunday afternoon. Music wasn't loud - wonderful. There were a few folks watching the games on tv but otherwise it was calm. The crowd also seemed older and it was just great for relaxing with a few beers and getting burgers. In contrast, we originally walked by 10 Barrel which was super loud and busier. Plus they are next to a place that was doing a Sunday DJ special event so that was loud too. Our server was awesome. She handled my senior family with ease and brought them samplers to help pick which beers they wanted. Burgers hit the spot and the beers were good. We will be back! read more

Backwoods Brewing - Fried Buffalo Chicken Wrap - Breweries Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Excellent service and one of freshest and tastiest turkey burgers to date, so thick, juicy, feta, guac, Cajun mayo, fresh jalapeno. Fresh sweet potato fries with jalapeno ranch, or tots, to accompany $17. It also came pre-split as we were sharing, separate plate with fries, no upcharge, nice touch. Downed with a bright melon & piney Lumberjack West Coast IPA, low 30 IBU but still enough bite on that hop. Angel's Envy Old Fashioned was a great double pour, cherry & bourbon bliss. Came to watch MNF Steelers game not broadcast locally, boo--but found a keeper here all the same! 3 TVs over bar and 2 facing street Healthy ahi poke, and protein coconut rice bowls up next! read more

Our next brewery stop wasn't far away so we just walked. Love when things are so close. Backwoods Brewing had a very northwest feeling to it, which I liked. Aside from the beer, they also have food and a happy hour menu. We ordered the Fried Artichokes, which were absolutely wonderful. Honestly, in my opinion, breweries do need to have a food menu or at the least a food truck to serve their patrons. We often look for places with food or will choose those places over others that don't. Finding breweries that have things for everyone is important, many people only like specific styles, like me with sours and ciders or many people don't drink alcohol but want to be social with their friends that do. read more

We loved their great happy hour! They have $1 beers, $2 off wine, and food that easily serves as meals. Corndogs were awesome--the bread was crispy with a soft center. The chicken strips had a nice crisp coating and tender meat. The standard tator tots were perfect crispy, seasoned right. We also tried some Cajun tater tots and they were too intense for us. This is not a complaint--take it as a warning that those tots will serve up Cajun burning! The boozy bear was amazing and easy to drink. There were also 3 gummy bears topping it! We found we could easily drink many without realizing we were getting drunk! We also had beer flight. They had 16 choices at the time we visited. There were dark, wheat, and even fruity beers to try! Both times we came we had terrific, friendly service, from the hostess to the servers. read more

Found myself back in the neighborhood for a long weekend and quenched my thirst at Backwoods. Longing for the RIP City Remix, it certainly hit the spot. The place was packed and rightfully so, it's a great spot to catch a game. I had some yummy salty perfectly crispy sweet potato fries to go with the beer and it was so enjoyable! Upgrading my original review to five stars, well deserved! read more

Awesome brew pub and restaurant! We arrived on a busy Sunday with a party of 7 and it took a few minutes to get a few tables together for us. We had three kiddos with us and there was great kids menu. There was a great menu for us bigger kids too. Great beer assortment along with hard liquor and speciality drinks. I had a classic old fashion, hand muddled and perfectly made. The food was great, unfortunately I didn't get any pictures. Too busy eating and enjoying the food! The pub itself is large and surprisingly quiet even though being packed. They sell an assortment of swag and shirts. We'll be going back on our next time through Portland. read more

This was stop number two on our first night in Portland... it was right around the corner from stop number one and both were down the street from our hotel. Big and cozy on the inside with lots of people enjoying the food and beer. We found a couple of seats at the bar and were quickly greeted by the bartender with water and menus. We ordered two flights (12 taster beers total) so we could try all of the beer! I enjoyed the winter warmers and my favorite was the stumbler, a big boozy barrel aged stout. read more

A lot of bartop seating and tables. Stopped in for a beer. Bartender was very attentive and friendly. Unfortunately , the "strawberry cream ale" I had was noticeably lacking in strawberry and cream ale flavors, drinking more like an session IPA. It wasn't bad, just zero shot I would have guessed the style based on taste. read more

Came to this brewery that has a few taprooms in the Pacific Northwest, including this one in the Pearl District. It has a good variety to choose from. Backwoods is known for being available in many bars and convenience stores in the area. Has even more of a selection on tap with many rotating and seasonal ones. There's also food, fried things like tater tots and that kind of stuff. Amazingly it wasn't too busy when we came in. It's got more than enough room inside, with the bar and a few tables offering plenty of seating. There's a pretty good variety on tap. Has more than just the typical styles of beers. It's about $7 a pint. That's pretty okay for a craft brewery around this area it seems. Best one of these we had was the Chuggernaut IPA. This has notes of citrus, lime, and melon. Also we got some food. It's about $8 for tater tots. Bad thing is there's limited vegetarian choices. Has a pretty expensive quinoa salad and veggie wrap. Barbecued and fried is what they have mostly. There's burgers and wings among the meaty options. For sure it's another good place to get local beers. It's located on NW Everett Street at 11th. The beers are the best, but the food menu has some good things. read more

Stopped in at backwoods during our visit to Portland. We were excited it was happy hour and we were gonna try some of food and beer when we received our food quickly. We were excited because we were hungry, but unfortunately, the corn dogs were very undercooked. Thankfully, the service was good and the staff replaced the undercooked corn dogs with fresh ones. The ambience of the restaurant was good. Lots of TVs for watching sports. read more

Backwoods Brewing - Buffalo Chicken Sliders on Happy Hour - Breweries Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Needed a place for a late night dinner after a day of driving. On a Saturday night they were open until 11pm and their kitchen closed at 10:15. I made reservations for table for 3 at 9:45pm. We were a little late getting there at 9:59pm. The 3 of us then had to split a table technically for 2 but we made it work. The salads were delicious and we tried two of the beers. The entree salad was large so the smaller one would be fine if you did not want leftovers. Pretty tasty and attentive waiter too. read more

Best brewery in downtown!! The rooftop was amazing views and shades but the service is significantly slower if you choose that versus inside seating. We got a beer flight ($13) and the happy hour Buffalo chicken sliders with tots ($8). Both were so good for the value and portion. I liked how this place allowed you to sample and pick which beers you want in your flight. The food came out fast and the flavors here are a lot more unique to other breweries. Would rec this place for visitors. read more

Bar food for delivery? Absolutely! I was craving a good salad and onion rings. After a little searching I found backwoods. Let's just say I wasn't disappointed. I got their Chicken Caesar salad.

My wife spent date night downtown at Backwoods. A brewery located on the corner of 11th offers local beer & food. Our server was very friendly and the food came out in a timely fashion. To start, we got the giant pretzel which was decent. I would try a different app next time. I got the Little Town Burger with fries and was very pleased, solid burger. We enjoyed our experience and will come back! read more

Beers I good; food is okay. The squash grilled cheese was gross. The bread was too thick and the sauce was nasty.

First- service was superb. I didn't get our waitress' name but she was adorable and added to the experience. We were in Portland in 2020 ( right before the world shut down) for vacation and ate here a few times. I couldn't wait to get back and have the Salmon nachos. Hubs got the mushroom Swiss burger and sweet potato fries and it was on point. We both got the hazy - delicious and we left with a four pack. Make sure you stop here! read more

Backwoods Brewing Company is the kind of place that makes you feel like you just stumbled into your new favorite hangout. The second I walked in, Jonny greeted me like I was an old friend; none of that awkward "do I seat myself?" moment, just instant good vibes. Dan, my bartender and the manager, was honestly the MVP of the night. His attention to detail was next-level. He made sure I was comfortable right away, even asking if I wanted ice in my water (which, as someone from LA, is basically a survival skill). When I ordered food, he gave me the lowdown on everything, warning me about the hearty stuff like he was helping me dodge traffic on the 405. Every recommendation was spot on, and the food was packed with flavor. The whole crew was great, but special shoutouts are in order. Cory had such a fun, party energy that by the end of the night, I was ready to invite him on a road trip down the PCH. Ryder (without the D) was super social and kept the laughs coming. These are definitely the kind of bartenders who makes you want to stick around for "just one more." Everyone behind the bar made me feel like I was the only person there, even though the place was packed. If you're new to Portland or just want to feel a real connection with people (without any Hollywood attitude), this is your spot. Come for the beer, stay for the crew, and leave with a smile. I'll be back for sure--probably before my next In-N-Out craving hits. read more
