Where to Eat and Drink in Portland’s Creston-Kenilworth Neighborhood
"Holy Ghost sets out to prove a bar can achieve peak cool without taking itself too seriously. The gorgeously designed art-deco inspired bar sports aquamarine tiles, leather bar stools, and one of the most eye-catching behind-the-bar murals in town. Simultaneously, Holy Ghost leaves no gimmick behind, offering a “Champagne button” at tables to summon a bottle of bubbly — or a bucket of the Champagne of beers, Miller High Life — along with fun features like an “Agave Social Club” punch card, automated cocktail shakers, a menu with hand-drawn bartender profiles, and group cocktails served in a tea pot. Mezcal is a serious passion here, with dozens of varieties offered straight, in distinctive cocktails, or in refreshing ranch waters. Food is available from the adjoining Electric Pizza Company and 28 Tigers, with whom Holy Ghost shares a patio." - Nathan Williams
