Portland’s Best Restaurants and Bars, Spring 2025 | Eater Portland

"Eater Portland’s 2024 Best New Restaurant, Bauman’s is first and foremost a taproom where Christine Walter shows off her cider-making prowess made from apples from her family’s century-old farm. But the food menu, from Cafe Olli alum Daniel Green, is just as special as the ciders on tap. There are bar snacks that are just a little bit better than they need to be — Ruffles with blue cheese dip, anyone? — but also sensational full meals, like a crab roll slathered with miso mayo or pork ribs done with a loganberry barbecue sauce. Special events, like burgers every Wednesday, summertime pizza pop-ups, and collab dinners with local chefs make this a spot to add into the regular rotation." - Katherine Chew Hamilton
