"Even with the recent revamp, this charming dive in Kerns is old-school Portland at its finest. This is the kind of place where beer and shot combos make perfect sense, so take a seat at the weathered bar (or the surprisingly nice back patio) and order a Guinness with a whiskey back. Everyone from out-of-town visitors to lifelong Portland natives can appreciate the come-as-you-are vibe." - Krista Garcia
