    if you've got a moustache, you should be here…read more i do adore the parlour, but i won't drop the "o" in moustache. why take the "o" from moustache and keep the "u" in parlour??? i seriously don't get it. but what i do get is excited for the borderline bizarre variety of shows that occur here. this is a very creativity-oriented venue, combining shows and performances with things like locally made goods and eccentric books and zines. add stumptown coffee, organic teas, and local brews on tap (while the draft selection is rather piddly, they're still a young business, so i'm hoping this will change). throw in some gin & tonic flavored mOustache wax, and you've got yourself a party. i mean, i'm still working on my 'stache, but even if you haven't got one, the parlour is worth checking out. prices are average to slightly above, and open hours are a little hard to determine, so i'd recommend checking their website calendar for show information. it's a rather small space, but it's very cozy and they make it work. it's dimly lit and sometimes pretty loud, but it's not a bad place to hide away for a bit and read a book. i've only been in a few times since the parlour opened, so i hope to update this review with a few more specifics (and perhaps another star??). until then, show the parlour some love and stop in.

We carry local and hand-crafted goods; knit caps and arm-warmers, jams and teas, and even mustache wax. We strive to promote and enhance the local and sustainable, and help ensure the success of Portland microeconomies. Our venue features the work of local artists, authors, and zinesters. Local microbrews on tap (or bottle), organic teas, and Stumptown coffee are always in stock. Musical performances range from soothing strings, to the furthest reaches of experimental electronic; from psych rock and jam, to solo acoustic and bluegrass. Every weekend highlights a taste of the diverse and wonderful.

    Came out for live music that did not disappoint! I really enjoy a good divey aesthetic and…read moreLaurelthirst had plenty of it. The older gentleman at the door was welcoming and kind, and very apologetic that the door fee was cash only (tip - bring cash or you'll have to walk a couple blocks to the plaid pantry for atm access). The food we ordered was good (burgers and fries), the bartender seemed a little annoyed or bothered in general, maybe he was having an off night, so he wasn't the friendliest person but he poured cold beer and put our orders in correctly so there's that. Come for the live music and divey aesthetic, and you'll leave feeling quite satisfied! Oh, and parking was a little meh considering the area.

    Live music most nights (and free a lot of the time) from some of Portland's best bands. A pretty…read moregood happy hour. A warm, funky, old school-not-faking it atmosphere with vintage wooden booths and tables. Cheap drinks. Check, check and check. As for grub, the BLT and burgers are solid pub fare, though the nachos are a hard pass. I don't come here for the food though, but for the thoroughly competent bartenders who work the always-crowded, narrow main room with grace and wit; the reliably excellent entertainment (which often includes a loyal band of dancing hippies, resplendent in their tie dyes, grooving to the tunes); and the strong drinks from the full bar. Add in a friendly neighborhood vibe that makes it seem like everyone's welcome, and you've got a true Portland institution. Support local music! Pro tip: if the main room gets too loud for you - as it often does - there's a smaller back area with a couple of tables, a pool table, pinball machines and a tv screen live-streaming whatever band is on stage at the moment. It's a good spot to eat your food or have an actual conversation when the volume is too much in the other room. Also; the bathroom sucks.

    Attended the Emancipator 1st of 2 nights performance. To begin with, upon approaching security for…read moreentry- they were very professional & did well in assisting with my question about paying for parking street side & escorting me to the elevator. Julianna was waiting inside of the elevator to escort me to my seat (ADA), of which they had reserved a seat by putting a sign on the seat with my name on it! She did well of answering my questions re: the bar location & of food served. While I was at the bar & waiting for my food, she approached me once again to let me know that she had to move my seat for a particular reason & then led me to the new spot, which was next to the VIP section. I was so amazed when she said she would even go retrieve my food order for me! The Get Down doesn't have a lot to choose from for food: hot dogs (PDX & of your own toppings) or mini- pizzas. I chose the PDX hot dog & thoroughly enjoyed it! I even splurged & treated myself to their specialty alcohol beverage containing rum known as a "Purple Rain"; all of their other specialty beverages contain vodka. The "Purple Rain" was delicious & definitely recommended!! One thing that I like about this venue is the smaller size: the max capacity is 450. Therefore the dance floor doesn't get as crowded. The ADA seating also allows for good view of the stage. Another situation appreciated at The Get Down is ample signage for locating the restrooms. I was excited to see Emancipator (local DJ Doug Appling & electronic violinist Ilya Goldberg) perform: after 2 other DJs opened, the main performance began. It was indeed enjoyable!! I will check back online for additional performances in the future, as this is a very enjoyable venue to attend & a shout-out to Julianna- she definitely made me feel like a VIP before & after the performance, of which she once again located me & escorted me out!

The crowd is mixed young and old, meat-market and just there to dance. We had a good time! And I love the self service water stations - to the right of the bar
