Portland’s Best Bars and Cafes Playing Vinyl Records
"A hidden gem for anyone looking to snag a low-key pregame pint, this unassuming tasting room is an oasis of tranquility amid a web of complicated intersections and stadium parking lots. Whiz past the self-congratulatory corporate wall art chronicling the building’s history as a historic jazz bar and there’s an appealing multi-level taproom to be found here, with a classy design language that accentuates the building’s reclaimed wood and naked brick. The tunes come courtesy of a blocky Bang & Olufsuon Beogram RX 2, a Danish brand known for audacious industrial design and high-quality sound, which feels in line with the rest of the space. The taproom lacks a designated food menu, but there’s a full calendar of hot pop-ups that cycle in, like Demarco’s and Javelina." - Ben Coleman
