The Sonder Bar

This is the kind of bar where you can spend hours chatting, enjoying excellent music, and watching whatever nature doc is on the projection screen. Immediately felt comfy cozy and would totally go back when they have designed and dance parties! Our bartender/owner was so friendly and welcoming. 100% recommend

I’m so happy I found this gem! Owners are super friendly and great drinks and atmosphere. I heard about Sonder in my zero proof cocktail offerings search in Portland. They have all the right alcohol free spirits and make yummy drinks. My friend I was with had nice alcohol cocktails and we ate really nice vegan food. Good music, great vibe and will be really nice on warm summer days!!

Great place with vinyl turn tables and excellent cocktails. First wednesday of the month they let people sign in to bring their records and spin them on the tables in 30 min sets. Weird in all the best portland ways. One of these pictures is the bathroom. I've never felt the need to take a bathroom pic till this place. Keep it up Sonder Bar I'll definitely be back!

The decor in the bar is so beautiful, you can tell they put a lot of effort and energy into it. The lighting, the plants, all the decorations, the music - it creates an amazing vibe! The drinks are also very good, one of the best slushies I've ever had.

The male bartender was so wasted that he struggled to speak, was visibly unsteady, and messed up my table’s check. It’s a cute establishment, but I have NEVER been served by such a drunk and inept bartender. EDIT: Fortunately, the reply speaks 100% accurately to my experience of the character of this establishment—and was a good reminder to specifically describe the circumstances of a bad review. They did in fact place our to-go order on a separate tab, after charging one party for our entire drink tab despite our instruction to split. Assuming the rest of the (to-go) order wasn’t coming, we left so as not to waste more of our time on poor service and watered down drinks, which didn’t bear mentioning in the original service-oriented review, but I think an discerning reader would certainly agree deserves to be mentioned now. The bartender shouted after us, chased us down the sidewalk, and called us back into the bar to hand over our food and demand we pay for the new to-go tab. He only provided half the food ordered (but only charged for what we were given) so we paid the tab, took the food order we were given, and left this review behind. I recommend Three Doors Down and The Moon and SixPence for bars in a similar area with great service, sober staff, and integrity-based business.

I randomly came across this cafe and it was great. The service was fantastic and everything is vegan. I ordered the Bahn Mi, which I’ve been craving for awhile. The bread stayed remarkably crunchy during my entire lunch and the tofu had a terrific almost smoky taste. I’d also recommend the London Fog with oat milk and a touch of lavender sweetener. Delicious!

You had me at vegan berry compote waffle 😍 I came here with my friend for a final brunch before my flight back home. We had originally wanted to go to another brunch spot with some vegan pancakes but they required reservations and were all out until the afternoon. No dice. Undeterred, my friend pulled out her phone and found this gem! I got the berry compote waffle (was debating the Elvis waffle bc of the peanut butter but if you are a berry fanatic like me, you won’t regret the berry compote), and wow YUM. I think my friend got a half of the savory waffle and mushroom which was actually quite good too but mine was better :) I took away the other half of my order so I had something for lunch/dinner on the plane! My friend also got a smoothie but I can’t remember which one. I do remember that I got the wellness elixir shot, which I was apprehensive about but wanted to try because “it must be good for me!” It actually tasted pretty good to my surprise, and the apple was great afterwards to help with the spicy cayenne (thanks to the server for recommending it!) would also highly recommend that for a good wake up shot. Anyways, yum I’m actually happy the other brunch place was all reserved up so I could experience this delicious berry waffle and also feel better about myself with a good ole healthy shot. Thank you, Nectar Cafe!

My favorite place in Oregon!!! Love the atmosphere of this small place, stuff is very friendly. Smoothies are well combined with all good ingredients, very tasty. Had their potato pancake, it’s the most awesome breakfast I had. And the Apple pancake was awesome too. Anyways, easily a 5 star place. Now every time I come to Portland I’ll visit this place!
