Function NE

Awesome concept. One brewery takes over each month and transforms the space into their own. They bring in top-tier breweries and the taps rotate often, so you really get to experience what each brewery has to offer. Can’t wait for the beginning of each month!

Function is a wonderful spot hosting fun and exciting new breweries each month. An amazing addition to our neighborhood. We good each and every month. Steven is the very best, always so friendly and cordial.

Function checks all of the boxes. You can bring your own food and service is stellar. The beer servers are very friendly and knowledgeable. The beer is great because it rotates frequently and is from breweries that Portland doesn’t typically doesn’t have. Love this place.

One of my favorite places to hang out! The vibes are super chill and Chelsii always takes GREAT care of us.

A great beer bar based on a rotating guest brewery takeover concept. The selected breweries are consistently top notch and offer Portland beer drinkers the opportunity to try brews that are otherwise hard to find in the area.

Absolutely a nice upscale place with outdoor heated seating. They switch out drink menus to keep things fresh with a wide selection around the world popular libations. This location is going to be packed during the holidays coming up, so get in there on a chill week and experience it.

This place always feels like home. Music, decor, open windows to hear and see Alberta st. And the beer is always on point with their monthly brewery pop ups.

Frequent patron & place is almost always empty when I go in. staff has always been really impersonal, but didn't take it to heart until recently. Regardless of the service, I loved the product, so I would constantly send people there when I worked nearby. I have no intention of returning or recommending the business to others after this. When I was last in, I bought four rounds & a 4 pack - about a $70 expense give or take. Right before leaving, the bartender asked me what I did. I told him I raise money for LGBT+ rights. I went to the bathroom & left, following that he followed me out the business door to tell me I was kicked out...without any real reason whatsoever. I asked why & he told me it was about my bathroom usage, but wouldn't get into specifics. It immediately came across as discriminatory, especially towards someone who is just trying to exist & use the restroom at a place I would say over time I've spent thousands of dollars at. No concern if I was okay or sick or anything either. I was shocked. I left a review, hoping this situation can be remedied. Edit: Things have gotten worse & clearly starts with how this business is being run. Owner messaged me & flat-out accused me of "lying" about the recent incident. I just wanted to add I am visibly a trans person who has been harassed for years using the bathroom at both locations (and I didn't know this was happening funnily enough or I would have stopped going sooner) & that was disclosed to me in these messages. This is EMBARRASSING coming from a business in this city. Unless this is resolved somehow, it is probably not a safe place for community members to frequent. Just excuse after excuse, placing blame on me with zero apology whatsoever. I attached part of the email I received to the review just so it's clear how little this business values their customer's their happiness & safety.

I can get behind this concept. Great space. AC was on point when I came here it was 90 outside and I biked here, why not! It's beer! I'll be back with a crew next round. I hope this place stays in the hood.

In a world that's rapidly losing beer bars, I love that Function exists. Monthly guest taps are a genius idea and a great way for locals to try some faraway brews. Nice that there are options to sit inside or outside. Hasn't really been busy any time I've dropped in, but the service was fine. HUGE shout out to Spanish Marie. Kind of obsessed with that brewery now, and I wouldn't even know about them if not for Function. Great way to try to beers we might not otherwise get around here. Flights are a great option to try several offerings at once. Fun place in a great neighborhood.

Amazing concept and so glad it's in the neighborhood! They're always super friendly and helpful with whatever they're pouring/featuring each month.

In the heart of the Alberta District lies the brand new Function NE location. Like their NW location, Function hosts a different brewery each month. They offer memberships, have wonderful staff, and of course, the beer is always great!

We've become regulars and I love this spot so much! Always a great vibe with excellent beer and fun company.

Great, clean, fun beer bar! Service is wonderful! Happy and friendly bartenders. Shout out to Jen! Great place for pups on the hot days because they have A/C and close to many food options! Give it a shot! (Or a pint rather!)
