The Leftbank Annex

The Leftbank Annex in Portland is a gem of a venue, and it truly shone during the recent cheese and meat festival! From the moment | walked in, it was clear that the space was pertect for hosting an event of this scale and nature. The industrial-chic design, with its high ceilings and open floor plan, created a welcoming atmosphere that was both stylish and functional. The layout allowed for an effortless flow of traffic between vendor tables, tasting stations, and lounge areas. It never felt crowded, despite the enthusiastic turnout, and there were plenty of cozy spots to sit and enjoy the delicious bites we picked up along the way. The natural light streaming through the large windows during the day made everything feel warm and inviting. The festival itself made excellent use of the Annex's multi-level setup, with upstairs areas providing additional experiences and views of the bustling crowd below. It felt intimate yet spacious—a rare balance. The acoustics were great, allowing for live music to set the mood without being overwhelming. All in all, The Leftbank Annex was the ideal host for the festival. Its unique charm and thoughtful design elevated the entire experience. I can't wait to attend another event here!

We hosted our wedding reception at Leftbank Annex and couldn’t have been happier. The space is stunning, modern, industrial, and incredibly versatile, which gave us the perfect backdrop to bring our vision to life. Kylie was amazing to work with throughout the process. She was organized, responsive, and made everything feel smooth and stress-free. The entire team was professional and ensured the event ran seamlessly. Our guests were blown away by the venue, and we received so many compliments on the atmosphere. If you're looking for a stylish, well-run space for a celebration, Leftbank Annex is a fantastic choice!

It’s a stunning venue for weddings, offering a unique blend of industrial charm and modern elegance.

The professional staff at Leftbank Annex goes above and beyond to ensure every detail is taken care of, making it an exceptional choice for couples looking for a memorable wedding experience.

I have always loved events at The Left Bank Annex. Last weekend was the first time I’ve worked an event in the downstairs space. It’s split into two sections, a main area and a part next to it as a lounge space. Great for small/medium events. The staff was amazing to work with, as always, and vendor access was a 10/10.

I attended a wine Exposition at the leftbank annex. Wineries from Walla Walla pouring and the facility was very nice. Large open space very raw exposed girder inside, but it felt clean and comfortable as well. Located very near the Rose Garden so easy to get to, so you have to park in the Rose Garden parking lots and walk a couple blocks to the facility itself. Could have used a little more bathroom space and closer parking would have been nice, but a useful small convention space on the whole.

I went her for an event I was volunteering at, it’s a great space, would be great for weddings or family reunions, birthdays etc. or beer event, craft fair etc.

Helped cater for the Portland cheese and meat festival here. It was a blast, and everyone had a lot of fun! It's an amazing space whether you're there to host an event or go to an event.

This venue is a great for those wanting a large, centrally located, temperature controlled (let's face it, it's Oregon -- who knows what kind of weather you'll get!), and Urban/Industrial event space! As a vendor, Kylie, Joe and the team are always great to work with and are always helpful and accommodating to the clients as well. That is a win-win! The venue rental/access period itself gives plenty of time for vendors to set-up and teardown as well, which is great. You won't be disappointed if you are considering Leftbank for your event, whether it's a corporate event, tradeshow, or wedding! ~Reedville Catering
