Happy Hour Guidebook
Guiding you to the best!
Salty's --
A very-favorite for so many reasons. It's right on the Columbia River,
and views are truly majestic. Best in the summer with outside patio and
beautiful sunsets! Delicious and discounted food and drink. It's "Happy
Hour of the Year" for 2012 -- see review page at the right for more
information ----->
Blue Hour -- Top notch in every way. Gorgeous lighting at night and fun patio by day. Big and diverse menu with great food. Stunning interior with showpiece, big-city style. *All of Bruce Carey's restaurants could be on this list (also has 23 Hoyt, Clark Lewis and Saucebox), and they can share the spotlight. Big party room available -- very cool and reasonable prices.
Brasserie Montmarte -- Third time's a charm for this classic favorite. The most recent remodel brings a touch of rustic France to warm things up a bit, and the Happy Hour menu has been revamped as well to include a nice long list of tres bien treats. Drinks deals too! Good positioning for a movie at Fox Tower.
Limo Peruvian -- WOW!!!!! This place has absolutely phenomenal food exploding with flavors! I was an addict from the first bite, and my habit just keeps getting worse (i.e. delightful). SO GOOD!!! Nice little private party room available too.
Oba -- One of my first Happy Hours in Portland and years later, it still remains totally impressive and memorable. Big party room available -- very cool and reasonable prices. There's a 2-for-1 entree coupon in the Happy Hour Guidebook!
Portland City Grill -- The champion of Portland Happy Hours! Menu features about 20 small plates (including an $8 steak and frites, plus lots of healthy options, most with an Asian spin), they go later until 7:00pm, AND they've added drink specials! All of which all adds up to a knock-down Perfect Ten. Gorgeous 360° views from 30 floors up offers vistas of the mountains and NW hills, the Willamette River, sunsets, and moonrises.
Seres -- A comfortable, serene choice in Happy Hour (formerly Sungari in the Pearl). Delicious food, big menu, and a number of healthy options (including organic gluten-free items). For a unique dinner experience, try their new Hot Pot menu!
Serratto -- Surprise! One of the best burgers in the city! Also award-winning spicy rigatoni. And wood-fired pizza. Great food. Inside, it's a nice, understated place, or sit outside along their sidewalk.
Thirst Wine Bar & Bistro -- Another favorite on the river, near the downtown area in the Riverplace Esplanade. Sit at the bartop for a $3.00 Happy Hour with wine, beer, cocktail of the day, and ten food items -- all $3.00 or less! They've added a wine tasting room too, with a focus on NW wine samples.
Urban Farmer -- Absolutely STUNNING interior! It is so NOT Portland. I love it! Menu hosts farm-fresh NW specialties and there's good drink specials too. An absolute must.
