    Wall of brewers goodness
    Jeanna T.

    This a nice, spacious, and clean place to unwind, gather with friends, enjoy watching a game, or meet your neighbors. Definitely a place to visit when in Portland!

    Cool mural!

    I've been here a few times since their opening. It's a beautifully cozy spot with an excellent tap list. All the staff are kind and super helpful. I like the broad range of indoor and outdoor seating as well as the solid cider options. Haven't ever gotten anything to-go, so not sure how that stuff is priced. Outside food is welcome, and I read they're starting to have food trucks on certain days. A welcome addition to the South Waterfront community!

    Have you ever dreamed of a place where you could have a locally crafted drink with your canine friends and family? If so, you're in luck. It's here, tucked away in Portland's South Waterfront. SERVICE The owner was back there serving drinks. He's friendly, well informed on drinks and willing to answer all your questions. DRINKS Choose from a variety of local crafted beers, ciders and wines on tap. They also have a few coolers with cans of beer, hard ciders, non alcoholic beverages and more. You can take those to-go. But why when you can enjoy with your friends? Human and canine. FOOD In order to allow dogs here, they can't serve food. However, guests are free to bring their own food from home or any other establishment. We have some good food trucks down here Tue and Wed that would be perfect with a drink. INSIDE The atmosphere is chill, laid back and kind of modern. There are comfortable, seating areas in the corners, a specific area with a big screen TV and a few tables. They also have a long counter with tall stools and hooks for your dog's leash. This way they can be right there with you without worrying about holding the leash. They also have gender neutral restrooms, free wifi, outlets all over and a self-serve water station. OUTSIDE There are some tables and benches outside. Unfortunately, construction will begin soon. Still, it's a nice, traffic free throughway. All-in-all this is a nice addition to the area. My dog, Yoda, gives it two paws up!

    Cozy, friendly place that's dog friendly. First, the service and craft beverage selection is excellent. There are 22 taps with rotating beers (some are gluten free even!), nitros, ciders and wine. If you can't find something you like on tap (which is impossible) there are 6 coolers of off-sale that you can select from. 2) The ambience is welcoming and aesthetically pleasing. The place is gorgeous! 3) The owner and staff are knowledgeable about the drinks they're serving. 4) The place attracts customers that are friendly and there for community. I came in alone with my dogs and struck up several conversations with different people. My dog also met a lot of new friends. They can't serve food because they allow dogs inside but you can bring your own or order carry out from one of the many nearby restaurants or visiting food trucks. I highly recommend this place and am confident you will enjoy it as much as I did. My dog also gives it two paws up!

    Lone Wolf Watering Hole is the kind of place you want in your neighborhood. The ambiance is relaxed and unpretentious--perfect for catching up with friends or striking up a conversation with someone new. It feels like a local hangout in the best way. The owners are fantastic--super friendly, easy to talk to, and clearly passionate about what they do. They know their beer, and it shows in the tap list. I've seen selections from Other Half, Lost Abbey, and Pure Project--always impressive and rotating. Prices are fair, and I really appreciate the variety of non-alcoholic options too. Whether you're deep into craft beer or just looking for a chill spot to hang out, Lone Wolf hits all the right notes.

The kid space was a great size and my two small ones loved being able to play while we ate. I loved that they had some great open ended toys and I didn't need to worry about them disturbing our neighbors. Our server, Emma, was great! She was attentive and quick. She even made our kids chocolate milk even though it's not on the menu. Our food was amazing. We had the kids butter noodles (I'd order that for my adult meal if I could!), kids cheeseburger, deviled eggs, caprese with prosciutto, and fish and chips. The fish was so good and big! Definitely enjoyed our experience here!

The beer is solid you probably already know this. This brewery has been pumping out solid beers for years and really have their styles dialed in. Like many others, I lean towards their IPAs and being an east coast native it's so nice to have their fresh squeeze style IPAs so abundant here. The food has always been good here. I've tried a few of their offerings, burgers, salads and the like. Never had a bad bite to eat. The interior is nice and spacious but this place can get crowded especially during the summer with tourists as it's location is ideal if you're visiting downtown. If I had one wish for this place it would be for some better outdoor seating as most of it is just strung along their storefront out on the sidewalk. That works for me, especially on days I just want to munch, sip and people watch.

It is genuinely cozy in a way that's hard to fake The reading rooms are such a great touch. Having tucked away spaces lined with books to actually sit and read, talk, or hang out in is so rare in a bar setting. It makes it feel more like a community space than just another tap house. At the same time, it works really well for large groups, we've rolled in deep before and never had an issue finding room to spread out. The beer selection is excellent. Thoughtful and rotating enough to keep things interesting without being overwhelming. Whether you want something hoppy, something dark, or something easy drinking, they've got you. And the left wing vibe is the cherry on top. It's refreshing to spend time in a space that wears its politics on its sleeve, pro-labor, pro-community, unapologetically itself. It feels like a place built for the people who actually live in the neighborhood.

Outstanding! This space suits so many purposes: studying, catching up over a drink, planning/researching, etc. There's even a conference room with seating for 11 that you can reserve. You can play board games here if no one's home is big enough for your group (their website says they no longer book the conference room for board games, but you can game there if it's not reserved). There's a few games in the upstairs green room closet. On a Sunday afternoon, there were plenty of spots open, but it is not dead either. Theres a variety of seating to suit all body types and preferences. First floor is wheelchair accessible. The upstairs bathroom has ducks on the ceiling so that's worth a visit alone. The blueberry rooibos iced tea is delicious and you add your own sweetener at the drink station. It literally feels like hanging out at a friend's house. Worth popping in if you haven't been. You can check the current drink selection on their website. You order in the entryway and then carry your items to your seat. Bus your dishes back to the entryway when you leave.

The Record Pub is your one-stop shop for new and used rock-based records and tapes, vintage stereo equipment and Northwest-focused beer, cider, wine and assorted beverages served in our pub area or taken to-go. I dropped in today on my daily walk and I'm so impressed with what I saw! They the layout of the store is fantastic and easy to find and browse the records. So many records store have the records jampacked and it's incredibly time-consuming to go through to find what you're looking for or just browsing is a pain. That is not the case here as you will see by my pictures! There are so many records to choose from and they are constantly adding to their inventory. Today they have six beers on tap, one cider and they offer wine by the glass. I also have a case where you can pick up beard to go or drink it in house for a small corkage fee. I had a nice chat with the owners and look forward to chatting with them again soon. I wish The Record Pub an abundance of success and plan on stopping after work to have a refreshing drink!

You can absolutely smell the fish and vinegar as soon as you walk through the door, which I think gives the place a very homey pub feel. I ordered a spiked peach Arnold Palmer, which I enjoyed (and it was pleasantly strong) and a glass of the house white, which was good for the price. Our server was very fast and attentive. To eat I got the tomato soup with a grilled cheese, which was absolutely fantastic. The soup was so creamy and flavorful, and I cannot imagine a better meal after spending all day walking outside in the rain. The fries were super crispy and I liked the batter. My partner and I shared some of their breadsticks, which were deliciously baked (fresh!) and came with a super refreshing basil crema and a nice tomato-y dip. Wonderful all. My partner ordered fish and chips, and was surprised to find that it is one large fillet of fish, not multiple pieces like you would typically expect. He said the fish was fine, but a little tough. Overall, a wonderful experience. I definitely hope to return. I highly recommend this place as a refuge during the cold winter months!
