"An essential North Portland watering hole, the low-brow Mock Crest Tavern opens at 9 a.m. daily, serving breakfast and drinks at its diner-style counter and out on the patio. Its friendly neighborhood vibes mean that no one will be judged for that 11 a.m. whiskey highball, and it always gets busy with daytime revelers when happy hour kicks in at 3 p.m." - Alex Frane
