Havalina

Never seen a bad beer on tap, classic cocktails, and “slushys”… who said you can’t have it all. Havalina nails it in St Johns and would go head to head w the best of all Portland.

This is a real gem of a joint. Good music, food from the kitchen or from Beto's taco cart is always a delicious treat. Often they have live music, and a fun karaoke night on Sundays. I was lucky to catch the debut performance of the St. Johns Yacht Club duo.

We had sooo much fun here. Staff was personable, drinks were delicious. it just happened to be taco Tuesday and they had a great deal running with the taco truck next door. I should have ordered like 12 of them. Instead, I only got two and then went home and seriously regretted my life choices. Definitely going back!

Havalina is a great place for cocktails, music, and FUN! From the welcoming environment created by Ezra, Managing Partner/Owner, to the friendly vibe and delicious drinks created and served by Ian, Julie, Dan, Brian, Charlotte, and Brandi-- Havalina is a MUST SEE!!

This place has amazing cocktails and every time we’re there there’s cool live music. I had the Pear Martini and The 1934, they were both so good. The staff are always so nice, we love this new spot in St John’s!

We come every week for their amazing Taco Tuesday night! They partner with Betos, so you can get the best tacos and burritos to go along with the amazing drinks. The staff is all amazing and so welcoming, they have a lovely outdoor patio, AND they have live music! A must visit in St. John’s!

Great cocktails, great taco truck out back, taco Tuesdays are insane ($10 gets you a margarita and 2 tacos).

This isn't really Havalina's fault, but since the only food available is from the taco truck outside, I will mention it. The atmosphere was fine, the service was good, but the food was not so good. Bland, over Americanized Mexican food should not be a thing in Portland. There are too many great Mexican restaurants serving delicious authentic food.

Stopped in for lunch. The bartender was pleasant and filled my beer fast. The food cart out back has one really good burrito. Nice little dive bar here. I like the big windows letting in some sun, when we have it here in Portland.

Very new cool cocktail bar in downtown st. John's. This bar yet new always has something going on from trivia to live music . And they just got a bbq food cart from one of the new best cooks in Portland the owner of a new soul restaurant. These cocktails are amazing. I've been here a lot now and will continue to come.

I believe my bartender, Brandy is her name, was super friendly and very accommodating!! Honestly a gem within the saint johns tundra. This place is amazing and the fact that my favorite taco truck is right behind this place just make me love this place even more!! They have a lot of cocktail choices so you are bound to find something to suits you!! They also have live music!! Honestly, I just became a regular because this place definitely is it!!

Havalina is what St. Johns needed. Super great cocktails. Fantastic food from Beto's Tacos (soooo good) and a wonderful music program. Top notch acts basically every night. Many with low or no cover. Bar tenders are friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. Place is clean, well appointed and nicely lit. Outlets all around with USB ports for those who stay a while. Haven't been to another watering hole in St. Johns for weeks. This is a place worth traveling to if you are not a local.

Literally loved it here. Our bartender was awesome and made our drinks perfect. We wish we could have stayed longer and tried more of their specialty cocktails. I'd recommend this to anyone going on their own, on a first date, or with a friend - the ambiance is warm and the staff are cool

This is a super cool new cocktail bar in the Jeezy. The owners are SUPER SMART because there's something going on every night here. From live music, drag bingo and trivia, there's something for everyone. The cocktails are delicious and they have daily specials so there's sure to be something on the menu to please all y'all. There's a food cart in the back patio area that serves up BBQ. There are plans to get anther truck back there, too! I love the bartenders here. Super friendly. Don't forget to pick up some hot sauces from HAB. They sell that yummy stuff here too. Come on out to the hood and have a cocktail or seven.

Service was very personal and friendly. Lance is a new bartender and is kicking ass. Brandy is a awesome friendly bartender who is full of fresh energy!!!!! Indoor and out seating, and animal friendly

BEWARE HIDDEN FEES! If you open a tab with a credit card, they charge a hidden surcharge. They don't tell you in advance when asking you whether you want to open a tab at the bar counter. Decline an open tab an bring cash so you don't get scammed!

Bar is great, people are great, cocktails are great but they might want to think about a different food cart, cuz that's not great! Some are worried if this is their long term plan for this bar. Portland is known for great food and this just isn't it, sorry.

Great service, delicious drinks, good prices, immaculate vibe/energy! This is exactly the kind of bar I've been wanting to find for ages, Julie made it such a wonderful experience and I felt at home immediately.
