Belmont Speakeasy-Themed Bar Circa 33 Has Closed Its Doors for Good - Eater Portland

"Circa 33 had one of the worst-kept secrets in Portland. Flip specific a book in the bookcase in the back hallway of this speakeasy-themed bar on Belmont to reveal a keypad. The code is 1933, the titular year that Prohibition ended — behind the now unlocked door is a semi-hidden dining room, with a bar window overlooking the back patio. For years, it served as an event space and party room; there, and at the rest of the bar, diners could find pre-Prohibition cocktails and contemporary dining menus of pub staples. On Sunday, September 26, the restaurant quietly hosted its final service with no fanfare or announcements." - Alex Frane

A Gin-Heavy Cocktail Pop-Up Will Soon Take Over a Southeast Portland Alleyway - Eater Portland

"While Circa 33 — a speakeasy-themed bar with a not-so-secret back room — remains closed for the time being, it will soon get a gin-centric pop-up bar out on its alleyway and back patio, with bay leaf martinis and hazelnut mai tais." - Alex Frane

Where to Throw a Bachelorette Party in Portland - Eater Portland

"This 30s-themed cocktail bar on Belmont is a nice spot for vintage cocktails, but the thing to do here is to rent out the room behind the bookcase, with shuffleboard and a piano for retro parties. The private room can also serve catered snacks, like fancy chicken nuggets (“fried chicken bites”) and Oregon mushroom crostini." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden

This is such an amazing place! Absolutely a must while living or traveling in the area! They are open now on the patio which is Gin Alley. (Wednesday - Saturday 4:00 pm to 10:00 pm) Definitely speakeasy as it is in a alley from the inside building. The music was of the era of the 1930’s (jazzy and of the like). The late great Miles Davis III was on the tunes! Outstanding dishes, unforgettable drinks, and impeccable service.

A little disappointed we came to Portland for one day from Florida and chose Circa 33 as our dinner restaurant because we visit speakeasies around the world. Not only is the secret room closed "due to Covid", the server wouldn't even let us see it. Service and the cocktail I had was only adequate, but the all the food we ordered was good. Overall an average experience.

Needed to find a place for a quick meal and a night cap after a disappointing few snacks at another location. On a Wednesday night we found parking on the street and strolled on in. Service was super welcoming and very pleasant in describing the various drinks and food offerings. I opted for the Negroni Flight, three variations on the Negroni, Classic, White and Smoked. All were fantastic! Had a burger with Brie and it was excellently prepared and super delicious. Nice crowd, while fairly full, it was still easy for the two of us to carry on a conversation, which is nice to find in a hip and crowded bar/restaurant.

Was not impress with the wings which were 12 bucks for 3. I understand it a dry rub but the wings where on skinny side with no meat inside. Had a drink off there bourbon list which is on the high side for a pour.

Nice place with nice decor. The mule was good, though hard to taste yhe ginger if you dont stir it. The full food menu ends at 10.

Great place for a laid back yummy drink date. Inside looked very comfy but we sat outdoors, it was perfect.

Everyone is amazing here, super friendly and made delicious drinks. Food was also amazing. We got to spend time in the speakeasy area with the secret bookshelf door which was super cool.

Was finally able to visit after the re-open. Still great food and drinks. The menu has changed, in both drinks and food. The corpse reviver is no longer on the menu which is a bummer, but the other drink we had was still excellent. Slightly smaller portions than before, but I’m happy to see the place up and running so I don’t mind. Seating: They have two covered tables outside in front. They have limited seating inside. They have a covered heated alley that you go through the inside to access. Was very comfortable in the 45F weather.
