The Essential Portland Cocktail Bars Where You Can Sip Something Exceptional

"The elegant, marble-clad interior of Wonderly is the right venue for its minimalist cocktail menu. The martini and Manhattan are each oversized, with a sidecar bottle on ice for refills; the house margarita gets an additional pop of acidity and heat from a pineapple-habanero shrub; and there’s usually an olive-oil washed version of a Vesper or White Lady, the fat washing giving these normally bracing cocktails a silky mouthfeel. “Fancy bar snacks” is the best way to describe the food menu, with options like Brussels sprouts with bacon vinaigrette, shrimp cocktail, and a pretty stand-up burger that comes with bacon and egg." - Alex Frane, Eater Staff
