Craft cocktails, DJs, and vegan food in a stylish downtown club.
"The Sentinel Hotel’s entirely vegan lobby bar is a downtown hotspot for cocktails and bites. Fortune’s menu includes a timeless In-N-Out–style cheeseburger and a bordelaise burger with double Impossible patties blended with herbs, double cheese slices, and thousand island, all drenched in bordelaise, a classic French sauce made with red wine, demi-glace, butter, and shallots. At Fortune you can enjoy other French-influenced items seitan steak frites and French onion soup. The bar’s cocktail menu is always fun and its rum and mezcal creations are some of its best." - Anastasia Sloan
"Located inside the Sentinel Hotel and wrapped in floral wallpaper that channels a moody Palm Springs vibe, Fortune is the place to catch vegan cocktails and snacks, while DJs spin tunes beneath the neon “We Back” sign. The downtown spot offers seitan French dips, mole poblano with soy curls, burgers (minus the beef), and deep-fried mac and cheese croquettes to pair with cocktails like serrano-infused Oaxacan Garden and the peach, lime, and ginger beer-laced G.T.S. Mule." - Anastasia Sloan
"Wrapped in floral wallpaper that channels a moody Palm Springs vibe, Fortune is the place to catch vegan cocktails and snacks, while DJs spin tunes beneath the neon “We Back” sign. The downtown nightclub offers Buddy’s Steaks mozzarella sticks with marinara, Thrilling Foods bacon-wrapped dates, In-N-Out style burgers, and rosemary garlic shoestring fries to pair with cocktails like serrano-infused Oaxacan Garden and blackberry-rosemary-mezcal Condessa Shuffle. The winter menu includes ultra creamy vegan mac and cheeses — available as classic, pesto, and chipotle bacon — from former food cart Macaroni in a Pot." - Waz Wu
"A quintessential downtown hotel bar flanking the lobby of Sentinel Hotel, the scene at Fortune is dark, a touch brooding, and anchored by a huge indoor fireplace. The food here is particularly interesting, with a menu by noted Portland vegan chef Jewan Manuel (Plant Based Papi) featuring a vegan adaptation of an In-N-Out style burger, fried jackfruit nuggets, and oyster mushroom “calamari” — dream vegan bar snacks, basically. The cocktail menu is smart and considered, with standout drinks like a Hennessey sidecar and a deep bench of rare, sought-after Japanese whisky." - Jordan Michelman
"The bars co-owned by Portland’s Eric Bowler will close temporarily during the outbreak 'for the time being,' including popular hip pseudo-sports bar Century and Old Town’s Tube, Fortune, and Maxwell." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
