"Hearkening back to an era when taverns — America’s original answer to English pubs — serving only beer and wine dotted the region, the cash-only, no-liquor Wilshire Tavern is as close to time travel as modern Portland offers. The food menu is downright spartan, but the atmosphere in this neighborhood institution is second to none. Sidle up to the bar to swap stories with suds-sipping regulars, or get competitive at the pool, ping pong, or foosball tables." - Nathan Williams
