"Opening August 25, the People’s Courts is a sprawling 48,000-square-foot rec center and social space at 2700 NE 82nd Avenue that pairs extensive games and sports—including five indoor and six outdoor pickleball courts, bocce ball, indoor disc golf, cornhole, ping pong, and an arcade—with two on-site restaurants and full bars. The bars keep several Oregon beers (including Level and Migration) and ciders from Bauman’s and Double Mountain, offer two cocktails on tap (a Vieux Carré and a margarita finished with a blood-orange syrup float), and make cocktails and mocktails to order using local distilleries; one signature example is the Dink Drink with Rose City gin and Wild Roots marionberry vodka paired with kombucha and bubbles. As a playful nod to the courts, whiskey shots can be served with picklebacks." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
