    Vodka + Peach Arnold Palmer
    Torie T.

    I went here 7/25 to try the special slushee from the Portland Mercury's $10 slushee-month promotion. The bar was pretty quiet (but we went at 3:00 PM on a Sunday, so I can't speak to peak hours!) The bartender was very friendly, and the vibe was pretty casual. Lots of emo/punk music, which was a plus for me. The slushee was good-- strong, sweet, and had enough tea flavor to come through but not completely overpower the peach. The happy hour menu looked really reasonable, and I would come back to try some of their other cocktails. Overall, a nice experience!

    Great place for a trivia night! The bar is large with a lot of great seating options. The whiskey/bourbon selection is wide and varied. The beer selection is also extensive with a nice choice of a taster wheel. The food has a great selection of pub bites. The pretzel and cheese sauce was standard. The sweet potato fries crispy. The sausage was cooked perfectly. The bartenders were very attentive and personable.

    When you find a place that shares your name, you really need to go. Outstanding whiskey collection. An opportunity to try some rare, hard to find bourbon. The bartender was helpful and the service was excellent. Really enjoyed the hamburger. I took uber because parking was not easy to find.

    I really do heart Loyal Legion. The beer selection is incredible and I could sit here for a while trying out one of the great rotating NE-ipa's on draft. But it's also a cool space, dark and woodsy on the inside, with a good amount of outdoor seating too. And even further, they have a good amount of vegan options (when the hunger inevitably comes on.) Yes, it's bar food (fried, beige) but who can say no to a vegan corn dog?! Though it can get busy (particularly on weekends/nights), service is typically very attentive. And since you order at the bar, you can check out or grab more food/drinks very easily. Cheers to LL!

    The fig jam is on the top bun with goat cheese it looks dry - it isn't. It's delicious

    We learned about loyal legion through their new location the Portland airport Pdx. And we had to try their city location. And it is as good as it is at the airport. A beer house yes but as non beer drinkers you will enjoy it as well. First they have ice tea and lemonade so other than just fountain drinks this makes me happy. But who knows me I do not come for the drinks I'll come for the food and at loyal I'll stay for the food. They offer a nice selection of vegetarian options besides some burger and fried items. The vegetarian dogs are fantastic and so delicious. They even make a veggie corn dog. The salads are fresh and yummy. I had a burger with fig jam and goats cheese simply perfect. And we tried the pretzel with the spicy cheese sauce. It's not to spicy but have a nice kick. It doesn't burn your tongue so we definitely recommend it ordering with the cheese sauce. All in all they have a fair price and with them having a full bar and lots of beers there is no reason for you to not try it :) no excuse :)

    Had to bus the previous customer's booth to have somewhere to sit down

    Seat yourself, but there are no clean tables. Had to look around, but couldn't find staff to clean a table, so ended up clearing somebody's dishes and wiping down the table myself. Nobody ever came to clean any tables while we were there. Went to the bar to order, stood where the "order here" sign is, only to be 100% ignored by the bartender (Christina has no business working in customer service) for no less than 4 minutes. Never made eye contact or acknowledged my presence, she was a miserable person. She walked by again and I finally asked if this is where I order, only to be given a nasty side eye and an unfriendly "uh huh". Apparently she works at Capers too, the poor place. All the staff seemed miserable. Took about 25 minutes for a chicken sandwich and corn dog. The corn dog was so burnt and messy I had to peel the scorched fried batter off most of it. Wasn't about to send it back as I'm sure somebody would do something gross to my food and have to wait another 25 minutes. I have eaten here before, and it was mediocre then too. I'll never be back on my frequent trips through that airport. I would avoid this place at all cost.

    Came during week week with my husband expecting it to be wild, but we got to order right up at the bar. I was honestly thrilled to find a place with a vegetarian corn dog, so I ordered that and the fried cauliflower. Both were 10/10. The corn dog was the first one I've had in years and clearly fried fresh to order. The cauliflower was delightfully crispy and came with a house made ranch that I couldn't get enough of. The price was honestly really good, too! I sat outside with my dogs so I can't speak too much to the interior, but the vibe looked cozy with dim lighting and plants hanging from the ceiling. I think it'd make a good date night. I'll be back for another corn dog!

    "Smashburger" but not really.
    Emily G.

    Service was terrible. The guy at the bar wasn't friendly at all. We also ordered "smashburgers" that were basically just thin patty burgers with no lace or smash to them. Fortunately, the patio is very nice for sunny days.

    Great place, just drink and enjoy. On a trip from SF found this place, love it. Perfect vibe and great people. So many options on tap...#pour

    Cocktails were on point. An extensive selection behind the bar makes it nearly impossible to get the drink of your choice. A vast variety of beer on tap as well. Right along with an amazing menu of bar food. Service was great! Love the chill vibe and the warm aesthetic of this place.

    No bad things to say about Loyal Legion. Cheap drinks, good food, great ambiance and vibe. Not too loud so you can still talk with your friends, and there's plenty of seating space for parties of all sizes. Bartenders are very friendly! $4 shots every day on a rotating list! Don't tell ALL your friends to come here... just the ones you really like

    Cool sign!

    Staff was pretty rude, very little seating unless you want to sit at the bar. Not good for groups unless you make a reservation.

    The best cauliflower I've ever had. They have lots of beer options. I had 2 IPAs and enjoyed both. Chill atmosphere, but serve yourself.

The lone woman (who we later found out was the owner) who tended to the bar and cooked up the snacks in the back and cleaned the tables and did everything else was fantastic and she did it all with grace and a smile the whole time. We ordered a flight of all the beers on tap (15). All the beers are gluten free and we enjoyed the wide variety of styles.

She loves IPAs, porters, and stouts. I'm more into lighter, easy-drinking beers. It's rare for a brewery to truly hit for both of us... but Evasion absolutely did. Their tap list was exceptionally well-balanced, with great options across styles. Everything we tried was clean, well-made, and thoughtfully crafted. No gimmicks, no "meh" beers -- just genuinely excellent brewing. And the saison? Easily the best one I've ever had and now my new favorite beer. Crisp, bright, perfectly balanced, and ridiculously drinkable. I would come back to Portland just for that saison. The vibe was another huge win. Relaxed, welcoming, and the kind of place you immediately want to settle into and stay awhile. We ended up lingering there until our Hopscotch reservation next door because we liked it so much. Honestly, this might be the best brewery we've been to anywhere, and we've been to a lot. If you care about quality beer across multiple styles and a chill, comfortable atmosphere, Evasion is a must-visit in Portland.
