"Portland’s newest hotel watering hole, Bar Chamberlain opened in the fall of 2021, following Hotel Grand Stark’s launch earlier in the year; the hotel was part of a years-long, multi-million dollar restoration by LA-based hospitality group Palisociety. Bar Chamberlain is understated and sleek, with art on the walls and a plush lounge atmosphere bathed in twilight-glowing neon. The concise cocktail menu (in particular the Tuition Money, made with mezcal and Cel-Ray soda) complements the standout new bar burger, with a poppy kaiser roll baked in-house by the excellent pastry program at Grand Stark Deli." - Jordan Michelman
