"For a 21+ opening party, I’d head to Bit House Saloon for "On the Mark: A Portland Queer Pride Opening Party," which starts at 9 p.m. Thursday and costs $10." - Eater Staff
"This brick-walled cocktail bar on Southeast Grand hosts everything from drag brunches to Indie dance parties, as well as local acts like Moth Kit and Earthware. Gnarlys handles the food, with vegan burgers, loaded fries, and “milk” shakes. Check out the full lineup and buy tickets online." - Jenni Moore
"On Southeast Grand, Swan Dive hosts the weekly Diva Drag Brunch (part of a series that appears in several Oregon and Washington cities) and usually features queens like Lylac and Jayla Rose Sullivan while the cast shifts regularly; Gnarly handles the food, making it one of Portland’s few entirely vegan drag brunches with dishes like biscuits and gravy or strawberry-whipped-cream French toast, tickets are typically $20, doors at 11 a.m. and performances start at noon, so I book ahead." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Southeast Grand’s Swan Dive is primarily known for its live music, but Thursday is karaoke night with roaming Portland KJ Jessicon. Sign-up starts at 9 p.m., with vegan food from Gnarly’s and no cover for those who want to drop in." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"Nacheaux, based within the Southeast Portland bar Swan Dive, has served fried-chicken-stuffed 'Crunch Wraps' since it opened its cart in March 2020." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
