Where to Find Portland’s Standout Bar Patios

"Tucked behind this East Burnside cocktail bar, the patio at Dirty Pretty is a hidden gem just a few steps away from the ever-popular Rontoms. Its tiny wooden cabanas provide shade on sunny days, a cute spot for couples to cuddle up on date nights; on busy summer nights, the outdoor bar serves fun cocktails incorporating pho-washes and Japanese curry, as well as the summery Guava Wars with rum and passionfruit." - Nathan Williams, Eater Staff

Where to Eat and Drink Near the Moda Center and the Oregon Convention Center

"Taking over the space of the departed Dune Bar, Dirty Pretty serves a bold and creative cocktail menu highlighting ingredients like pink peppercorns, falernum, pho-wash, and white truffle within a space replete with ’70s earth tones. A small-but-original bar snack menu includes things like rabbit spring rolls and edamame bolstered with pork sausage. Sip inside the elegant bar space or outside on the kitschy astroturf-lined patio." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden, Nathan Williams

It's a pretty neat little bar that offers a good selection of tequila and Mezcal spirits. They also have other spirits to choose from. The place has a nice chill and relaxing atmosphere to it. We ordered a couple of drinks - Green Lotus and Burnside Bully. Both of the drinks were excellent. I did really enjoy the Green Lotus - vodka, coconut, pandan, coffee, sesame, and matcha. We also did the spoon the wheel for a random $7 shot. We landed on the mystery tequila and Baja blast shots. The Baja blast did remind me of the drink. We also ordered the funnel cake fries, which I highly recommend. Overall, it was a great time with some delicious drinks.

Baja Blast Done Right – Dirty Pretty Knows What’s Up Stopped into Dirty Pretty and everyone—and I mean everyone—was ordering the Baja Blast drink. Naturally, I had to try it too, and wow… they nailed it. It’s a fun, grown-up twist on the classic Mountain Dew/Taco Bell combo, and it’s absolutely delicious. The place was packed, but we didn’t have to wait long to grab a seat. They've switched to ordering at the bar only now, and honestly, it sped things up and kept things moving smoothly. With outdoor seating opening up, this summer is going to be an absolute blast. Great energy, great drinks, and a crowd that clearly knows where the good stuff’s at. Can’t wait to come back!

We decided to try this for a lovely Thursday happy hour date night and it was such a good choice. When we first got there, there was no seating a a "seat yourself" kind of situation. But after a bit the turn over allowed us to grab a table. Drink wise we ordered a few things: Blahaj blast: bright blue and sweet with a little Gummi shark on top, it was well mixed and reminded me of a baja blast but with a punch. Goodbye earl: gin based drink that was wonderfully lemony. If you like a gin and tonic with a fair dash of lime, I think you'll like this. Melancholia: a tall lemon drink with watermelon foam topped with glitter. It's maybe the gayest little drink I've seen and it's FANTASTIC! Like a extra fruit lemonade, the watermelon foam tasted little watermelon jolly ranchers in a whipped cream. Sober spritz: a savory orange soda like drink that was the perfect thing to end on. Food wise we ordered Nachos, both with beef and carnitas: I'll say that you seem to get more meat with the beef, with the carnitas option the meat was light and didn't feel with the price increase, but the nachos were loaded and well balanced with pickled veggies and creamy queso. Tacos, we ordered the pork belly and the gordita crunch: honestly, the pork belly was the star of the night. Absolutely incredible and worth the visit just to experience. The gordita crunch tacos were good, but compared to the pork belly, not my favorite. Fries: incredible. Generously seasoned, they make you want to lick the bowl. Honestly, this was an incredible spot, and so busy even for a Thursday. We're already planning a trip back so we can enjoy the burger (they were sold out) and I honestly can't wait.

I would’ve given more stars but it’s a bit pricier than i feel it should be. But when you’re drunk who cares. The nachos were exactly what I needed. Side note- AVOID the matcha Jell-O shots- I nearly vomited

Such a cool bar! It had a nice ambiance and the cocktails were so unique. Our bartender was very friendly and was happy to tell me about areas in Portland when I told him my husband and I would be moving to Portland. I can't remember the names of our cocktails but they were very good! Mine had a pho wash which I was skeptical about when I ordered it but it was incredible. Highly recommend!

Had an amazing time at Dirty Pretty. They serve very creative and refreshing cocktails. The food is super tasty and pairs well with a night out. I really enjoyed my interactions with the staff and I can tell that everyone there was truly passionate about their craft. Also the PATIO!! So cute and perfect for summer, I’m excited to come back for their movie events as well. Can’t say enough good things!!

Been by twice since they opened! The cocktails are exceptional and interesting, between myself and friends we’ve made it through 90% of the menu and haven’t found a single drink we wouldn’t order again. The Vibe Check is so good and interesting, it’s a nearly savory cocktail that will really confuse your taste buds (in a great way). Also love the Down Bad and the Guava Wars. Snacks are bangers, get the Dirty Edamame. Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful and proud of what they’re serving up.

I had a cocktail and the burrito and loved both! The decor, service, music, overall vibe was 10/10. Can’t wait to go back.

My girlfriends and I happened upon this cute bar during a quick and rainy trip to Portland. We went for the drinks and stayed for the service and food. The drinks were artful masterpieces and the food was delicious!

Summer patio option. Cute cocktails, friendly staff, instagrammable "aren't you pretty" sign out back, can accommodate multiple credit cards.

What a cute place to celebrate with the girls for a birthday! We had an intimate little booth reserved for us by the door. It was fabulous. The cocktails were so delicious they could be dangerous! Lol the waitress was so sweet and even took some group pictures of us. Beyond wonderful service. The scallion pancake was different than I expected. I thought it would be thinner and more crepe like but it was a fluffy American style pancake. The filling was flavorful and I enjoyed the sweet chili sauce. Just different than I expected. I'd love to come back for the tasty cocktails and small bites .

Good bar with a nice outdoor patio. They have a lot of cocktails for the girls but also Kokanee's for cheap for the boys so I can't complain. I sometimes stop in here if I'm on the Eastside at night.

The dirty chai cocktail is out of this world. I don't know what magic they sprinkle in there but wow *chefs kiss*. I also loved the vibe check cocktail as well. Very unique flavor profile. We came for a friend's birthday and they were easily able to accommodate our large group. Great DJ as well! Can't wait to come back and use the patio once the weather is nicer and try some of their food as well!

I've only been in twice but I like this place for drinks. Most recently I had the Vibe Check, with gin, vermouth, coconut, lime, lemongrass and a pho-wash. It was sooo good, great balance of lime, sweetness and those pho flavors. I love the vibe of this place too and it's just a great location for a drink. The bartenders were friendly. My favorite combination is to get a drink here and then go across the street for pizza at Dimo's.

Surprising flavor combos, pretty floral garnishes, and dino slushies -- all on a super cute little patio (with table service! Even outside!) that they've done a great job enclosing from the rest of Burnside. We just went for cocktails, but the food looked and smelled great, so we'll probably be back to try it out sometime. Our cocktails were really well-executed and I imagine the same of the food. The pho-wash on the Vibe Check was a surprising savory note that somehow worked really well. The Down Bad was smokey delicious, and the bourbon-peach-rosemary slushy had really warm vanilla flavors that balanced so nicely. Server had good knowledge of the flavors.

My girlfriends and I stopped in for a drink and a quick bite before an event we were attending 2 blocks away. Such a cute spot with good vibes. We sat inside in a booth near the windows but they do have an outdoor patio in the back and they also have live DJs. The service was wonderful. All the staff was super nice and friendly and so welcoming. We order a few drinks; Jungle Juice, Blush, and the White Lotus (this was a non-alcoholic drink). All the drinks were good and refreshing and they even had my favorite ice! The small nugget ice. My friends and I ordered a few dishes to share. We had the fried deviled eggs, Hurricane jojos, Korean fried chicken sandwich and the fried sieman. The deviled eggs were good and they come topped with Chinese sausage. The sieman noodles were my favorite! So flavorful and tasty. The hurricane jojos were good but could have had more seasoning/flavor, and the chicken sandwich was also good. The menu is very small and so are the portions. We were still hungry after we left from here.

Came by the other day with some friends for a late night dinner & we quite enjoyed it. We all ordered smash burgers (and in true smash fashion they were delicious). We also got the pork hash & enjoyed it. I ordered the Capricorn and was surprised that the goat milk didn't come through more; the cocktail tasted pretty much just like bourbon, but with a savory (not sweet) hint of something else. The star of the show was the Vibe Check, I'd recommend going to this bar just to get this drink. Imagine that sweet aspect of pho broth separated out and melded into a perfectly balanced cocktail. My friends & I were a bit skeptical at first, but after tasting the drink, we had to order another. The drip was also a favorite--felt like an adult version of a creamsicle. The bar has a nice ambiance, with ample seating and moody lighting. The back patio is also pretty big but with a more well-lit summer backyard vibe.

I was so disappointed that I never got to check out dune but Dirty Pretty was awesome! I love the ambiance. Very chill for all types of people and events. Love how chic the bar is and the server was super kind. Drinks were delicious. The cocktails were dangerously yummy. Spirit away was so tasty that I couldn't even taste the vodka and highly recommend to Studio Ghibli fans!

Chill vibe and great spirits. A lot of choices for specialty cocktails. The spirited away (Gin and sake) drink is like lemonade and goes down smooth. We picked the edamame from the small plate menu, which is roasted and delicious. The jojos packed a subtle kick that was great. A Smear of sauce similar to a yum yum sauce served. Will definitely back!

I give an A+ for the customer service here! They're so sweet and they are hospitality doesn't go unnoticed. I love that they serve food pairings with their drinks and the patio is open. However, they told me that they are going to have a covering over it so that it's year-round so when it rains people can still hang out there. I got the blush drink I am not a huge fan of the huge ice cubes as I feel like I'm not getting much of the drink but other than that it was very tasty as floral!

A really cool/trendy cocktail bar within walking distance of the convention center. I tried two cocktails the Pho wash one and the Capricorn. The pho wash cocktail which the name escapes me was DELIGHTFUL. A true 10/10 and honestly I could see myself bathing in it at some point it was that good. I do not even have words for how it tastes but I am telling you to come out and try it for yourself.

Approached the bar and asked if we needed to order at the bar to sit on the patio and was told to go find a seat because they have service. Waited 15/20 minutes and ended up leaving alongside 2 other people because no one came out to take our orders.

The ambience is cool nice place to come with big groups. Kind of reminds you of Sugarhill on belmont. patio in the back is nice but if it's sunny, you're going to be hot as hell cause there's no shade. I believe the menu is reasonably priced choices are limited, so don't come here super hungry

tldr: solid unique drinks with decent bar foods at a trendy bar Dirty pretty lives up to its name with uniquely weird cocktails. Southpaw seen in the photo has Japanese curry whole vibe check has pho! Sounds weird but in my opinion, they made it work very well. Their other drinks aren't too bad either. Definitely a cocktail bar so don't expect them to be cheap drinks. As for the food, they weren't bad but not as amazing as their drinks. I like the playful plating and their heavier portions but the flavors were mid. Service was great! You can sit anywhere you want and servers will just pop right up to you. They're patient with you and will guide you through the menu if you need some help. Overall a nice bar to check out when drinking out or just want some well made cocktails

Came by on a Friday evening to enjoy HH specials and we were about to get seated right away. We enjoyed a couple of cocktails off the happy hour menu (Capricorn and jungle juice) and also ordered the smash burger and Jo Jo's. I quite enjoyed my jingle juice drink and my partner liked the Capricorn. The burger and jojos were super tasty, but wished the burger was bigger for the price. We were still hungry so we added on the fried saimin noodles and another drink, blush. The blush cocktail was refreshing and light. The noodles was good, but slightly over salted (and I love salt). Service was very attentive and the bar itself is chic and trendy. Loved all the plants!

Came here for drinks on Thursday. Unlike a lot of places they have extended hours on Thursday. Great ambience and music all night and it was not very busy The drinks were amazing. Had the DOWN BAD mezcal drink which was amazing and garnished to be very presentable /high quality cocktail bar presentations Would come back!

The people that brought us fools and horses have brought us this cool place too! Service there is great, everyone is very friendly, and the drinks are pretty rad. The space feels very 70's mixed with islander vibes which I'm totes for! I love that they have a back patio, and the only thing missing is a pool! lol We had their fries, the Charlie's burger and the hash. Ben and Jacob were our main dudes to tend to us and they were freaking rad. I'll definitely go back for sure, especially because my dude Andy has a skill for some nice drinks!

This place has great vibes and a cool backyard patio! I thought the food was a bit of a miss though, it was decent but I didn't super love them all. My friend really liked the Smashburger, but it was pretty small. The Steamed Pork Hash-Hash was alright, but not as flavorful as I'd like. The Pork-Stuffed Scallion Pancake was quite disappointing as it was just a regular american pancake with pork and scallions on top. I was expecting an actually scallion pancake, so that was disappointing. I just got a mocktail--Setting Boudaries, which was alright but I don't think it was worth the price.

Great price on happy hour drinks. 70s themed bar. Spacing is a bit tight so keep that in mind when coming by for happy hour. The drinks were a bit stiff but nonetheless delicious.

Good drinks and the food was good but it took way too long on a slow night to get us some edamame! Like an hour! I wonder if they forgot about us?

The people are so nice! The service is amazing. The gin beverage w the pho wash is PHENOMENAL honestly, I texted several friends about it, and I'll come back to this place for that cocktail alone. They were out of the smash burger, so I asked the server what she'd get and she advised the pork scallion pancakes. I will say I think this order is overrated, is *covered* w peanuts, and really felt like a crepe with some ground pork? But to each their own! Will come back for cocktails for sure!! Great service!

Love this place I love the decor I love the quality I love the overall staff I came here on a Saturday night a little packed at first but we got to get drinks right away and the food is so good was freaking good it's a little on the small side of bars but the location it's so much more than just a barhopping kind of bar .I mean you can do that, but this is like come here with your girlfriends or come here on a date and have a great time good music overall 10 out of 10 would recommend to everybody even your grandma.

We went to have a drink about 9 PM and ordered the vibe check and the guava, something, and the drinks were not good... The vibe check had an overwhelmingly, strong lemongrass flavor, which I actually like but there was way too much lemongrass, so it tasted like a savory Thai food dish. The guava drink was not mixed, so the banana liquor was sitting on top and tasted like syrup. we informed the waitress and told her we wouldn't drink them and they were really bad and all she did was say "sorry about that" took the drinks and that was it. No remake or refund. Kind of disappointed as the ambience was super cute and I loved the vibe. But likely won't be returning.

All of the drinks we had were amazing! Not very strong which I don't mind. The spring rolls and shumai (not dim sum shumai, more like gyoza) we're delicious. The inside is simple yet beautiful 70's aesthetic, good music as well. Will definitely be back!

Cool vibes and friendly staff. The space is small and cozy. Drinks are priced just right and aesthetically pleasing. Not sure if they were trying to come up with a drink list that had their drinks not have a strong alcohol taste to them, but seems pretty weak. A new bar with a trendy crowd is a cool way to spend the evening.

Portland's new bar Dirty Pretty brings so much life to the sad form Central Portland has become. Their pork scallion brings a new take on bar food that no one else is doing in this city. I'm happy to be around other young creatives while being able to sit back and have a cocktail. Also, the owner sells the best coke in Portland. Hats off to you Portland.

this place was nice, not exactly poppin when i went but it's was like early on a friday. the drinks are good and strong, the vibe seems instagram cute but not like an authentic dirty and pretty vibe that one might hope for
