Two Wrongs Portland

Loved our experience here, we came in for a drink and enjoyed the cocktails and had a great experience with everyone behind the bar. Love that they host community events and cultivate an awesome atmosphere. Can be busy on the weekend but is a nice spot for a drink on the weekend. Really beautiful space. The cherry baby was a must try!

Came here on a Sunday night and we had the best experience. Tom, the bartender, gave us a taster of espresso martinis before we put in a big order. Needless to say, we ended up getting 5. They were delicious! Also, loved the vibe of the place.

Pricey drinks but friendly staff. $18 for a margarita is steep, but I did like the staff—they were welcoming and helpful, which made the experience better overall.

A super cool bar in the pearl area that usually has good music and a decent crowd. The drinks here are pretty good and reasonably priced. They have both table service and also counter/bar service. I have not tried the food yet, but will eventually.

I loved the music and ambience and we got the special couch next to the imposing logo. The cocktails were delicious and the staff were great. We were not ready to leave at midnight because we were having so much fun!

Snobby is not the right word, but it felt like both the patrons and the staff had their noses turned up the whole night. Not much dancing despite the music being so loud you couldn’t even talk, and the wait for a drink or the bathroom was excruciating! Unless you’re willing to pay $200 for a table, you’re going to be disappointed.

Wanted to have a night out and my cousin took me here. Fun atmosphere, and the music was on point.

I came here for a meet up event. I had a two drinks where here to include a lemondrop and cactus slim. Both drinks were okay but not worth the money in my opinion. I was not a fan of the step up of booths and the random seating in the center. Maybe I am too old for this place? I don't know but wasn't for me.

Two wrongs don't make a right sometimes - walked in for a quick drink and i gravitate towards gin drinks and well that's what i got. the vibes are nice and it was empty when i popped in around happy hour. The drinks were light and just ok.

Stopped in to grab a drink with a friend and was pleasantly surprised with the experience. The service was solid, there was a DJ playing 90s jams on a weeknight, and the drinks were spot on. The ambiance is unique... there are Moroccan tiles all over with live plants throughout. There is even a Photo Booth if you need some variety in your life. Love the decor and the diverse clientele. Reminds me of my fun days in Cali!

Amazing service from the bartender. He was beyond nice and attentive. The vibes were mellow with 90s r&b playing and just the right kind of lighting . Will definitely come back on my future stops in portland :)

THANK YOU , THANK YOU!!! I traveled to the Portland area for 24 hours, and literally someone at the mall in Portland told me about this place. I was pressed on time but I was token care of by Austin, ( make sure you ask for him ). He was my bartender and he was so nice and he understood the assignment- my first drink I order the flavor of the gin I wasn't feeling. But it was such a pretty drink, Austin was so attentive and noticed it, I was still going to just drink it because he was so nice and didn't want to give him a hard time. He instantly asked me what kind of drinks I like and he made me this... don't ask me what it is because I don't know. Some kind of margarita he made and I love things spicy so of course we did the tajin rum.... And I LOVEEEEEEEDDD it!!! Make sure you guys check them out. And right next door I ordered Pollo Chicken fries - let me tell you now. THEY WERE THE BEST I SWALLOWED THEM... I have not ever tasted chicken fries that good, when I landed back home they were all I could think about. I was tipsy from the drink Austin made me and wanted to chow down again, I was so mad I couldn't just get up and go get them. DEFINITELY coming back for them fries. Please don't walk, RUN to go here. Check out my pics below

The environment was very mellow, service was amazing (the bartenders are very friendly and helpful) and the music was great! Perfect spot to go with a friend or your partner for a drink.

A nice casual spot to chill with friends. When we went, it was a bit empty so there wasn't a lot of energy. The interior is nice with booth seats and bar seats, and lots of space. Drinks were good, service was alright.

Can't believe this place is unclaimed and only 3 stars considering this was the most fun I've ever had in portland. I went on a Friday night, arrived early enough around 930 and watched it slowly fill up and get packed. By 11 it was bumping! The music was a diverse hop hop and r&b/dance mix and the crowd was the most diversity I've seen in one room in Oregon. The drinks add up quick, i spent a smooth $150 here going with some friends but i had so much fun. They also partner with the Mexican restaurant next door so you can order their food at this bar and it comes delivered. Yum. We just got chips and guac and one taco but it was a great accompaniment. Can't wait to go back!

Super lively bar. Music blasting and great energy on a Saturday night. Maybe a bit loud inside but the outside bar area made for a good spot to hang and have a conversation. Drinks were creative and delicious. Lots of fun twists on classic drinks. Especially a fan of the Candy Rain and Mangorita!

We love stopping in for drinks because we love the vibe and the atmosphere of the bar but the customer service could definitely use some work. Bartenders aren't friendly or welcoming, but the drinks are good. There is a Photo Booth tucked away in the corner of the bar that's fun to use with friends. We enjoy coming here during the summer time.

It's a nice spot. Cool vibe? Bartender was a pain about only having cocktails, no beers, and when I order a cocktail it was awwwwful and I think pre-mixed.

I would leave zero stars if I could! Don't go here if you want unwanted tips added to your bill on a night out. If you do go, make sure to check your statements. My husband tipped $20 in cash that night and they added in a $10 credit card tip to his bill. Luckily we check our statements and have a copy of the receipt where you can see that he put a zero with a slash through it in the tip line on the bar copy.

Good fun ambiance for a night out at the bar, though can get a bit loud. They have $5 Corona's and there are often enough girls here to give it a good ratio. Bathroom lines can get long though.

This is for the bouncer on the night of 10/26/24. I was in this bar with some friends. I wasn't feeling great so I stepped out to get some air, I then was followed by some men ( I was alone ). They would not leave me alone and kept following me as I tried to walk to the other side of the street. They kept following me. I then stood with a group of girls who were in the two wrongs line (they were so sweet to let me stand with them). When I noticed the men were still standing around me staring at me , I then went to the front of the line to speak with the bouncer. I told him " i need help I'm being followed can I please come back in my friends are inside " he then laughed and said hah your being followed no you can't. I was in shock I really needed help. I had clearly been crying and in distress. He did not care. I will not be coming back to this bar based on that asshole bouncer who wouldn't help a woman who was alone and scared. If I was trying to "cut the line" I wouldn't have been crying and scared saying please help me I'm being followed !! Hurt my heart. Hope he gets training so this does not happen again ! WOMAN GET FOLLOWED AND WORSE EVERYDAY. IF SOMEONE SAYS HELP ME IM BEING FOLLOWED , HELP HER ! That is your responsibility as security!!

Giving 4 stars bc the bathroom was atrocious!!! But overall onna Friday night it was a vibeee! The drinks are a fair price and the DJ was playing old school and new school music! Very classy but also groovy bar people really enjoying themselves and keeping it cute! Lots of POC in there!!! Got kinda dead around 12:30 but was a vibeee from 9pm till then, would definitely come back. Definitely got older folks in there so very mature vibe

Used to love coming here, it had a great vibe. My female friend and I had came here one night. I had been with her all day prior to coming and we had no alcohol. She went in and ordered a vodka soda alone while I was trying to find a parking spot. Not much after from that one drink she was blackout drunk. I had to carry her to the car and by the time we got to her place which was about a 3 minute drive. She was completely blacked out. Someone 100% that works behind that bar is helping to drug women. This is not a new thing in Portland. I've seen this girl drink 6 drinks in an afternoon on a cruise ship and was barely drunk. How does 1 vodka soda do this!? We all know how.. Wouldnt recommend this to anyone.

Good vibes, good music... strong drinks!!! Service was good. We sat at the booth right by the bar. It wasn't too busy at the time we went. Chill spot to hang out at with friends.

It's fun ! The music is good R & B or hip hop ! Yes Good vibe people dress nice or casual

This is the kind of bar you'd go to if you want to party hard and get drunk hard with a group of friends on a Friday or and Saturday night. The music is too loud for my taste but you won't mind it if you get super drunk. They have great beats/music choices when it comes to the songs they choose. They are all rap and hip hop. I love the interior of this place. It's super trendy hip and modern. Inside they have a neon peace sign that's huge and takes center at the back wall. Some things that I don't particularly like is that there is a security guard who has to check on your purse or bag, asks you security question which is reasonable. They do a pat down. I'm grateful the guy didn't pat me down. I understand they need to do it for security purposes it's just I've never been to a bar that checks so thoroughly and has such high security. At least I know it's safe.

My wife and I recently moved to the ridgefield area and we've been looking for a spot like this! The ambiance is nice! Loud music music and a lot of greenery! Something my wife LOVED! Bartenders were helpful with the questions my wife had and the drinks were SOLID! I got the Mangorita and it tasted like candy! For the people know the spicy mango lollipops, it tastes just like that! Except without the chili powder. It was so good! I'll definitely be coming back here for that drink!

vibes are absolutely great. very friendly staff and amazing drinks. restaurant is very clean and well kept. highly recommend.

Great place to enjoy with friend, good music and specialty craft cocktails. Winston always provides superior hospitality.

I've been to two bars in Portland during this pandemic and two wrongs was one of them. I saw through social media that they were following social distancing and mask rules well, and that tables were spread out. Their outdoor seating made me feel safe, and I was able to keep my distance from others. Inside the bar where you order your food and drinks there is a mask requirement. Their drinks were great. I enjoyed their Pomelo Anthony. Their food was good too, tacos and drinks, how could it get better? It was definitely a pick me up and much needed! Would visit again during the pandemic and well afterwards

Don't come here if you're a woman that has any concern for her own well being or safety. They continually support predatory behavior among their male patrons and take zero accountability when a woman is harassed or taken advantage of inside of their bar. It's been an issue for months and months and the owners and security team continue to ignore the complaints. Do better.

$$$$$ for bottom tear drinks. You go for the experience. Cool lay out and papi chills next door is really good. The music is usually good and it can be pretty lively on a weekend!

With lots of dark wood and Moroccan tiles glowing in gold from the under the counter lighting and framing the bar, the dark & sexy vibe envelopes you immediately upon entering. There are tables and high-top tables on the left and a large bar to the right with various hanging mosaic lights adding even more ambiance. This is a beautiful bar. We came for cocktails after dinner elsewhere, having seen the sign and realizing this was new, so we had to check it out. The food menu seemed to consist of various types of hot dogs and cupcakes. Is this a thing? If I'm going out with friends for Happy Hour, I want better food choices. The cocktail menu is filled with inventive concoctions with clever names like Standing Spritz Face. If only I could have seen the description in the dark I would have ordered one! Note to owner, please add more candles to the bar so customers can actually see the menu. I'm all for ambiance, but it's in everyone's best interest to have enough light to read and order. Yes, I did try to use the flashlight on my phone, but there was a user error! Frustrated, I gave up and ordered a margarita on the rocks. It was good, but not as good as the margaritas next door at Papi Chulos which was strange because the restaurants share the same owner. My friend had wine, which was fine. As the night went on, a few people came and went, most noticing the new bar and checking it out, same as us. The bartenders weren't overly friendly or attentive, surprising since it wasn't crowded. I'll chalk this up to newness. Hopefully when they get into a groove this can become a place where people become regulars. It's such a nice looking place! Even though there are some kinks to work out, this is a place where I enjoyed hanging out. It's in a great location making it easy to stop in before or after dinner.

Went back had a good experience bc of Winston only reason I'm giving a 2 start review but the "owner" David had such a nasty attitude. He came at us stating "can you read bro" bc we didn't read the house rules without any type of communication prior & then started claiming he's from California & this is how he treats people. Sadly in Portland this is the only social bars we have & all the co owners of all these places think they're all high & mighty. We know what they do on the downlow & you can't treat people like you're better than them when you're in customer service. One day you're good one day you're low so don't treat people like you're better than them.

We love this place! First of all, we fell in love with David! Super nice guy, very friendly and passionate about what he does. Secondly, the drinks are a bomb! You order from the menu or just explain what you like and watch David do his magic. The atmosphere is very nice. This might be our new to go place for cocktails:)

The few thing that stands out at this place is the Decor followed by the music. In a row full of quiet restaurants , this one does seem to be making a lot of noise (pun intended). The vibe is very Moroccan meets bougie. Lots of mosaic lamps , beautiful tiles ,quirky pictures of Hepburn and Dalai lama giving chill vibes to the crowd. It was slightly crowded when we came in , so the server made us hang outside in the waiting area ,and told us he would move us inside or in the tent outside ,once there was space . However a lot of folks came in later then us and were seated before us . Eventually after like 45 minutes and two drinks ,I had to remind him that we were hoping to sit inside and I could see empty tables in there . He then let us move inside to one of the empty tables. Drinks were OK , nothing really stood out to me. They have cocktail pitchers which could be great for larger groups .We tried a few drinks and were less then impressed . The food is from Papi Chulos and is pretty great . The service definitely could be better , there was just one person to seat everyone ,to clean the tables, to do the rounds etc. and hence it was a long wait to even talk to him or ask a question or to even be seated . Parking is OK for now since the streets are closed, however post Covid its a difficult spot to find parking at.

We were in town and Noré from Deadstock Coffee suggested Two Wrongs. We were there on a Wednesday night- no security/bouncer, nice diverse crowd, got a table right away and drinks were great. Met some locals and had a great time.

1 star for the decor which was clean, tasteful, and well spaced. We went at night and it was a decent crowd but not overly crowded. 1 star for the music! Fun, dance hits kind of music. Now for the rest, it was unfortunate that such a cool place was brought down because of the people and bartenders. The bartenders are NOT friendly, I get they're doing their job, but have a little fun .. it's not a stuffy high-end bar, try to match the vibe of the place you work at. The crowd honestly matches the bartenders. Portland is friendly, people are nice here! But I have never been anywhere in Portland that had so many rude women in 1 place. Constant catty-ness near the bathroom and tables was uncalled for. It felt like a bunch of out of town college kids who thought they were at an LA club. I highly recommend skipping and checking out any of the far friendlier local establishments (River Pig, Teardrop, hey love etc). Update: Rontoms has a much better, loud music vibe with cooler, friendlier bartenders! Tip: I didn't have issues with the doormen but heard after 10pm they charged $10 (but based on other reviews and my friend's experiences they have been asked to pay $90 cover, and no that does not go towards a table). And if you want to kick people out of tables you have to pay $50-$100.

Terrible ambience. Hard to hear yourself think. Always way too crowded, too loud, and the drinks are too expensive but understandable given the location

The cocktails ranged from $12-14 and were delicious! I'd recommend getting the pitcher as it is cheaper and shareable.

Not a fan of this place. It's always super crowded and I've never had a good experience here. The security guard working Saturday afternoon was really rude and he asked me something and I couldn't hear him because it was so loud in there. The music is legit way too loud in there. I was there with my group of friends for her birthday and I could not hear anyone in our group and we had to basically yell at each other the entire time we were in there. It was also a Saturday afternoon/early evening, so didn't make sense why the music was so loud and it was uncomfortable at times how loud it was. Won't go back to this place going forward.

So I haven't gone to a bar since the pandemic hit, this place seemed insane, it was really hopping on a warm Friday evening. They have a lot of outdoor tent seating as well as a few seats at a counter on the deck, which is where I sat. Inside the tables are technically appropriately spaced, but it still felt somewhat crowded to me, probably because I haven't seen so many people in one place in a long time! When I went, the wait to order was not long, got our drinks right away and our food quickly after. I got the Lime in the Coconut. It is primarily limey, I didn't get much coconut flavor, unfortunately. The food comes from Papi Chulo's next door. I also ordered a pork burrito and it was HUGE, like Chipotle sized, and delicious. There's something about the rice in there that was very tasty. There's good people watching here, people were dressed like they were in Miami, not Portland!

This place just always has vibes. Too much, sometimes I don't know how to act (especially when I get too lit). The DJ really picks up on the energy in the room and turns up the heat. This was my first real outing since the start of Covid, yeah the last time I was really outside was Feb 17, 2020. So you can imagine how excited I was to finally feel comfortable stepping into an establishment like this. They really enforced social distancing and limited party sizes. The only downside was that my party got separated to two opposite ends of the bar and weren't allowed to go back and forth. At least they were enforcing their policies haha. When I'm vaccinated Ill be back for more Mangarita pitchers.

Seriously loving this place! Music was right up our alley, playing classic 90's hip hop when we visited and all the best hits! Bring your entire crew because they've got cocktail pitchers! Not only did they have cocktail pitchers but they are GOOD and come out to be a really good deal! I will say, Tecate for $5 is a little steep. They should only be like $4 max imo, c'mon it's a Tecate. But aside from that minor gripe this place is making it to the top of our go-to watering holes. Ambience is perfect. I liked the lighting. Lively but not over crowded. Plenty of seating and the bar is a good size. Bartenders are very attentive, welcoming and friendly. I didn't get that standoffish, "too cool for school" feel that I sometimes feel in "local" spots.

Probably the worst bar experience I've ever had in Portland. For all the reasons others mentioned and then... I tried to close to out my tab on a busy Saturday night; was trying to follow a big group of friends to another spot. Signaled to the bartender that I was trying to close out and was just ignored. After several minutes of waiting with no response, I called out "Can I just close out?!" The bartender looked at me coldly and said, "Do you want me to stop serving drinks so I can close you out?" Uhh...yeah! It's a Saturday night and the place is packed. If I waited until nobody wanted a drink, I'd be here until 2am. I walked away without closing out. A $47 preliminary charge was upgraded to $70, so they clearly treated themselves to a healthy tip. AVOID!!

This is my favorite place for cocktails in Portland They are always playing the best old school hip hop and it is full of energy from the bartenders to the waitstaff to the door guy. Their decor and setup inside creates for the best ambience. The bartender can always create something new and amazing if you let him know spirit or taste you're in the mood for (the best mixology) Highly recommended. They also have pitcher options!

Two wrongs LITERALLY wronged me twice. First off, the waiter who greeted us told us that if we wanted a table inside we had to pay $100... JUST TO SIT AT A TABLE, and when we said no, he said he could do it for $40... and that we would have to VENMO HIM PERSONALLY, so again, we said no, and decided to sit outside with our group. After telling him no, our table kept being dodged and we 100% felt like he didnt want to interact with us. Second, when we went to the bar to order drinks, the bar tenders were literally reaching into chip bags and eating as they made drinks, and on top of that, there were CLEANING SUPPLIES sitting along the back of the bar next to the drinks they were making as well! I had to watch them make our drinks because it made me feel so uncomfortable. I wanted to love this place so bad because it is a cool space, but after having this experience, you could not pay me to go back.

Came here for a cocktail to end the evening and was impressed with the layout and ambience of the place. The bartenders were pretty knowledgeable about the drinks and efficient in making them. I had an old fashioned based on the bartender's choice and it tasted great. What made it better was that they played some of the old school hip hop jams back from the late 90s and early 2000s. The vibe was great and definitely will have to come back and have a couple more cocktails and try out their food.

Stopped at Two Wrongs on a Tuesday after dinner with a friend to wrap up the night with some drinks. I was immediately so impressed with the ambiance and overall vibe. We sat at a high top and perused the menu- laughing at all the clever drink names. The music was a tad loud for a Tuesday night at 8pm (at least when the music is Candyshop & Low), but as we were leaving and more people showed up, it felt right for those people that were probably going out that night. But then we sat waiting at the table for 15 minutes and eventually got up to order at the bar (there was a waitress waiting on other tables but for some reason we were skipped over). He had us open a tab but then when we sat back at our table he brought the card back, since we wouldn't need a tab if were at a table & not the bar. We were served our drinks, which were wonderful, and then again, waited and waited for our check. We ended up paying at the bar. I think the bar was recently opened, but it was a bummer to have such poor customer service.

I am 21 years old. I look young. However, my ID is 100% valid. I arrive at the door and am greeted by a bouncer who accuses me of having a fake ID and keeps asking me questions about information on the ID which I answer fully. He still denies me entrance. Having dealt with watching my friends turn 21 before me, I was excited to enter a bar as a legal adult, yet I was turned away on invalid reasonings and twisted logic. The bouncer was a complete asshole and I felt humiliated and disgusted. I am legally 21 and there is NO REASON I could not be admitted. It's ridiculous to be turned away for having a "fake ID" when it's the same ID I've had since I was 16 years old. If they had had a scanner, I would've been let in easily because I am 21 YEARS OLD. Relying on bouncer judgement is NOT a logical way to go. I am beyond upset. I will be returning, however, because I'm legally 21 and no one can stop me. Because, you guessed it, I AM 21 YEARS OLD.

The reviews make sense, there is literally no one here and Ive now not been asked if I wanted anytime for the last 30 mins, so clearly they're ok with people just sitting and not actually spending money. The two white men at the bar are definitely being treating well.

This place has so much potential. However, there is obviously a tremendous lack in leadership amongst the staff. I've never had such poor, rude, and unprofessional bar service in my life. The vibe you get from the bartenders is that THEY are entitled, instead of the customer. They could care less about you and your experience. Not to mention, the drinks are WEAK. If you've ever been to a bar where the bartenders just looked miserable working there, this is that multiplied by 10! Don't go!! Too many other great choices on the same block.

If I was 20 years younger or really drunk I could see the redeeming qualities of Two Wrongs, however as a 40 something year old (sober to boot) this is a hard pass for me. Reminded me of a college bar with swankier decor. Drinks had no booze in it and were terrible. Super loud inside and bartender was pretty rude. I could see the appeal for a 20 something year old, but for someone looking for a well made drink and a place to enjoy good conversation this is not the place to go. Especially in a city rife with excellent cocktails bars. I guess the only bonus was it was open on a Monday, but otherwise I say skip it.

My friend and I were excited to check this place out as it was recommended to us by locals. We went on a Thursday night and it was vibrant, great venue, great music. Unfortunately, one of their staff members was so rude to my friend and I. We had been waiting at the bar a while and my friend said " are we invisible " instead of apologizing for making us wait, the waiter verbally jumped at my friend asking him to apologize for being rude, etc. He could not shut up and listen to my friend and I for a second neither did he try to understand where the frustration came from as a professional host should have done. Very disappointing. I would still recommend the place but definitely encourage the manager to really train his staff to be more professional and learn how to handle frustrated customers.

Such a great spot. First time going and the DJ that night was so good! Good drinks too. A good place to go out with friends if you are not looking to go clubbing. Mini club vibe for sure

Eff this place. Will never get my business again or anyone I know if I can help it. Left my credit card here and was overcharged. Would have given a large tip for holding on to my card except for the fact that the b!tch @ss doorman grabbing my junk while "frisking" me on a weekday at 08:00 PM. Should be able to leave 0 stars.
