"This house-turned-union hangout on Southeast 12th is home to several cozy spots to curl up with a copy of Das Kapital, whether it’s in the second-floor library, home to comfy couches and shelves of theory to peruse (or borrow), or the main bar room, decked out in photos from Oregon’s labor movement history. When it comes to food, Erica’s Soul Food is parked out back, which means pints of Guinness and glasses of Proletariat Red can arrive alongside vegan wings or maple hot fried chicken and sweet potato waffles." - Carrie Uffindell
