Comfort food, cocktails, draft beer, and a heated patio
"East Burnside’s pragmatically named Eastburn is a quintessential something-for-everyone Portland bar. The kitchen offers elevated diner food alongside upscale pub staples like pan-roasted salmon, bougie mac and cheese, and shrimp pasta. Libations include a long and reasonably priced whiskey list, as well as nearly two dozen brews on tap. Eastburn also provides three distinct vibes: polished street-level indoors, complete with charming basket chairs; a relaxed, eclectic (heated) outdoor patio; and a rumpus room of a basement taproom, complete with Skee-Ball, old-school arcade games, frequent comedy shows, and plenty of excellent beers." - Nathan Williams
"Perhaps most memorable for its hanging basket-style seats in its front window, the air-conditioned Eastburn is plenty cool upstairs, but even cooler in its cozy basement taproom. Eastburn bartenders mix both specialty and classic margaritas with aplomb, and the whiskey list is sneakily one of Portland’s finest — though remember mint juleps are especially time-consuming for bartenders, so go for a simpler cocktail on a busy hot night. Later in the evening, the Eastburn can have a bit of a party atmosphere, particularly on comedy nights, so vibe check accordingly." - Nathan Williams

"The casual neighborhood restaurant, pub, and venue Eastburn shows games upstairs at full volume and downstairs on three screens (volume varies by evening), and offers $2 tall boys, half-off bowls of trinity fries (fries, sweet potato fries, and crispy fried leeks with roasted tomato aioli), and half-price pints if the Blazers score 100 or above." - Alex Frane
"Neighborhood pub and restaurant Eastburn Public House is hosting its annual costume party on Saturday, October 27. The pub will feature live bands upstairs and a DJ-dance party in its basement bar, and will be giving $500 to the best dressed guest. The party starts at 5 p.m. and goes late, with a $10 cover." - Alex Frane
