Valley Public House

Love this place! So many options on tap. We tried ciders today and really liked Cider Boys. The service was superb. They helped us choose. Of course tasters were an option. The outside patio is dog friendly. We did not partake in food options this time, but definitely will be back and give those a try. Highly recommend you give it a try.

Great place to just hang out. Outstanding service not to mention the enormous selection of beer, wine, cider, and good old booze. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and just good people.

Genuinely the most tasteless, boring food I have ever had. I got Tamale Boy, my dad got an enchilada (I think) and I got nachos. I'm genuinely astonished how nothing both our food tasted. Absolutely zero shade to the employees cooking, you work with what you're given and they tired the best with what they had- that being absolutely no seasoning. I'd call it white people nachos, but shredded cheese tossed on great value tortilla chips would have more flavor than the nachos I ate. The "cheese" could pass as gravy with no flavor, the "carne asada" could be ground beef, and I'm almost impressed how they made jalapeños not spicy. When my dad asked for salt, as they had none out for customers, the poor girl behind the counter had to scramble around the kitchen to pour some into a small dipping container like she couldn't even find it. It feels like they wanted to just make the place a bar and food for drunks who couldn't tell any better. Taco Bell would pass more as Mexican food than this... 😭 sorry to be so harsh but I cannot stress just how bland all this food was. I'd call it cardboard but that would at least have a comparable taste...

First time here and loved it. Ate at Tamale Boys which is a separate review. Drinks were great, bartender was nice and mixed a fabulous drink. Atmosphere was fun and busy. Lots of outdoor dining inn the warmer months and indoor dining is great with a 21 and over space which is nice. So many beers, ciders and wines as well as the cocktails. Too many to list off so you may have to head down to take a look.

Great place for a beer and food. Lots of local beer on tap to enjoy. Tamale Boy and Ranch Pizza are delicious. The bar also has a menu to order from.

UPDATE: Had our 3rd visit yesterday! Had dinner and sat in the bar this time! Dinner from Tamale Boys was excellent! Always a great experience! Our 2nd time was due Sunday brunch and we sat outside. Been wanting to come here forever. Our nephew and his wife were in town, so it was the perfect opportunity. Can't wait to return and sit outside.

They have everything I need, an extensive tap list, great food options, and cocktails. I went during COVID restrictions and this place was perfect for that. It has a large outdoor patio that is covered and has plenty of heaters. The tap list is huge and has something for everyone. Besides a great selection of craft beer, they also have wine, cider, and cocktails on tap. For food, they have outposts from two very popular local restaurants, Tamale Boy and Ranch pizza, as well as their own kitchen. There was also a whiskey bar downstairs that wasn't open because of COVID, but they did have a "pop up" version in the taproom mixing up select cocktails. I had a cocktail while I was there, which was very well done. Finally, the staff was friendly and helpful. I look forward to going again.

Love the chill vibe on a spring day. So many taps to choose from! The food is great and easy to order. Downstairs is a nice restaurant, Whiskey Barrel Lounge, which is great as well! Stoked that Happy Valley has a nice laid back place like this!

A great local spot with a good beer selection and drinks! The staff is great too. With the 2 restaurants/vendors inside and the bar menu there are plenty of tasty food options. There is Tamale Boy & Ranch Pizza on the main floor. Outdoor seating on nice days is another bonus. There is also a pinball bar in the basement that is lots of fun, with free play on all the machines for a 1 time cover charge of $10. Family friendly too!

Portland cider company's cinnamon roll cider is delicious. Love this tap house because there are also two restaurants: tamale boy and ranch pizza are both located inside the tap house. Spacious and cozy, but I love going here on summer days because the patio is a quiet hideaway. However it's usually busy whenever I attend so it's definitely the hotspot in Happy Valley.

An incident at happy valley public house a few months ago with my son and the owners daughter .The owner told me my son wrote a bad review on Google so my son can no longer come in to his Establishment all I can say is WOW. Which is fine and my family will no longer come in anymore also. There are better business that we can go to and cheaper instead of paying high prices at the public house. We as a family have supported your business for 3 years during rough times and this is how you react. Good luck. Really bad. Some education to the onwer on how reviews work "owner". People post reviews and as a Business owner you take those reviews and figure out how to better your establishment to make a better place for your customers not kick people out just on bad reviews. This is not how it works. There are many more places in happy valley to go you are not the only one. Please take these reviews seriously and improve your environment. That's the beauty of social networking. I would never recommend happy valley public house. There are better places to go.

Public is frequented about once a week with the boys. Solid spot to watch a sports game, good selection of beers on tap and Ranch is a good choice for food. Our usual bartenders are great, my girlfriend always gets samples before deciding on her drink and they don't seem to mind. Plenty of seating, indoors and out, although it may be limited outside when the weather is nice.

I love this place! Delicious cocktails, and excellent service. Special thanks to AJ and Sabina @ whiskey, barrel lounge, for always taking the best care of us!

This place rocks!! From a huge selection of drinks to the great selection when it comes to food, I love coming here! Theres plenty of seating, outside, at the bar, and on the cute cozy couches in the corner. It's a cute spot, and they host some pretty fun events here. From charity nights to pints and pups (if they don't still do this, they NEED to bring it back. Puppies available for adoption while enjoying a drink? Are you kidding me?!!) this place has it all! The staff is always nice and friendly. For how busy it can get here, they're always on top of it! If you're in the area, definitely stop by for a drink, and order a slice of pizza while you're at it!

Great spot. Lots of beer selections to choose from. Can be a bit busy so parking is a little troublesome on a Friday night

We are fortunate to have this place as our local public house. With almost 70 beer/cider/wine/etc taps, a whiskey bar/steakhouse downstairs and Ranch and Tamale Boy upstairs, it's hard to justify going anywhere else. Service is great, plenty of TVs, patio heat and fire pits, clean taps, good list rotation, and sometimes you can find Alchemist cans and Russian River bottles for sale to go. If it was walking distance from our house it would be perfect :-) I don't do video lottery but they have that if that's your thing

Lots of yummy beer choices, with lots of seating. If things are too crowded downstairs, there's more upstairs. Staff are friendly and are happy to let you taste before you buy.

I hate to say it but this was the worst $16 I have spent on a burger. It was nothing like the picture on the menu. Very thin patty, gobs of mayo, barely any cheese and scant wilted lettuce. Utterly disappointing. Would much rather spend less and go to one of my favorite food trucks for 100% better quality, freshness and flavor, all for less $$. I wouldn't bother with this place if you are looking for fresh higher quality food.

Our bartender Jodi was so awesome! Love the atmosphere and she makes fantastic Old Fashioned! Wings were good as well.

Great beer selection and good service. Locally owned. Food is solid too. Check out the restaurant downstairs

The staff is friendly sky and helpful, they have great notion sours on tap which I love! I have yet to try the food but would love to try their wings. Everyone seems super friendly here and it's always very clean!!

I've been a fan of this place since they opened. Now they have a new pub menu the makes this the best place for a burger and beer in the Portland Metro area!! I wish I would Have taken a pic and I will next time!! Well worth the trip!!

Very impressive drink menu. If you are not into drinking alcohol I would not recommend. Non-alcoholic drinks are served in cans and are very limited. They gave us paper straws...yuk! The side of the place that is not "21 and over" is like sitting in a cafeteria (noisy and lots of echos). You have to walk up to one of two counters to order food. One counter is for pizza and the other is for a gourmet Mexican food. The menu for Tamale Boy is hard to comprehend. They use ingredients that you don't normally see. We ordered pizza. It was $22 for a square pizza. The pizza had the thickest pizza I've seen. You can order a 1/4 pizza for $7. I also order a Caesar salad. The salad only had radicchio (no other lettuce) which is strange for a Caesar. Our food was brought to us in to-go containers. There is a sign on the table that says you have to bus your own table. When you pay for your food at the counter the visa machine defaults to a 15% tip that you have to override. Seriously??? They want a 15% tip when you have to stand at a counter to order and then have to bus your own table? The "21 and over" bar was busy. If you're not going to sit in the bar for an alcoholic drink I would not recommend.

Great outdoor area. Love that they allow dogs. They have really good selection of beers and kombucha and other items.

Love this place. It's our go to spot for drinks and quick food. Beer selection is robust, classic cocktails and great service. Owners are awesome and the staff is super friendly. Access to Ranch, Tamale Boy and the Whiskey Lounge menus. Love it here.

New review: Don't waste your time or your money. I voiced my displeasure about the lack of customer appreciation and was told to leave and "not come back." I was polite and tried to voice my opinion about past problems.

Great neighborhood spot for casual drinks & food. They also have an upscale dining experience downstairs for those looking for such. VPH has a great selection of cider on tap and the fire pits on the back patio make for a cozy evening.

Wonderful place and dog friendly! Local neighborhood pub. Great drinks, the food it ok, could be better.

Cochinita pibil tamale from Tamale Boy was pretty good. Huckleberry kombucha was refreshing and tasty. I had a good time sitting outside with my friend for our lunch today. I will be back again!

Favorite new hang out spot. The staff is friendly, the drinks are cold, and the pizza is MY FAVORITE in driving distance. It can get busy and loud but that has never bothered me.

Very unimpressed. The bar side is where you have to order your beer, and there are no minors allowed. If you were to stop in here with your child, you would have to leave them alone on the side they're allowed to be on to get your drink. It would be much more modern and functional if they put QR codes at the tables so you can order your beer from anywhere and get it taken to your table. Or just make the whole thing minor friendly. Since there is food there I don't think it's a legal issue I think it's a choice. Very dark inside very bland looking, very freezing and tamale boy was super cold. Good beer but nothing else good.

This is a great spot to come and grab some food and drink! The patio space in the back is spacious and actually pretty warm for being outside! There is also a ton of seating out front with heat lamps that provide a bit more comfort in this cold weather. I do wish that there were more food options available, but I'm sure there are more to come. The patios are also dog-friendly! There were so many dogs, and so many friendly people that wanted to say hi to ours. It's a really great atmosphere!

Cool spot! So many beers on tap! I also appreciate that they have ciders on tap as well! The tables were pretty socially distanced and the staff was really friendly. Great spot to grab a drink and a bite to eat!

Awesome outdoor seating area! Huge beer selection and now, food too! Love the public house atmosphere... a friendly place you want to hang out in!

We have been to VPH 2 times. The first time, we said we would not be back. Well, we tried it again. Confirmed our original opinion. It's cold, loud and seating is very uncomfortable. Maybe cafeteria style eating and drinking is not our cup of tea. Pizza too thick and bready. Cold entree from Tamale. Was hoping for a better venue. Maybe it will improve over time;)

I had met my friends for a drink...out side!!! I was super late....Being last to join I only had two bees, and when I went to order a round the server told me I NEEDED a water. Hmm thank you but that is not why I'm here.I was rudely refused service and so were my other girl friends.

Best tap list in Oregon. Period. Please please whatever you do don't go here and order a Coors Light!

Cool little pub with restaurants inside. They definitely do social distancing in the bar. To order you have to go to the bar and order. The food you can order and they'll actually bring to your table regardless of which side you're sitting on. Many beers/ciders on tap.

Awesome place! I love the ambience, the huge choice of beers, wines, and ciders, as well as the food. The staff is attentive and the guests seem like a great bunch of people, half of whom all seem to know each in some way. It's a very warm, friendly vibe. Can't wait to experience the Whiskey Bar Lounge when it opens downstairs. I'm looking forward to spending more time there.

Love the outdoor heated dining. Great food and cocktails. Dog friendly is great too. It's nice during this covid. You will enjoy. Dress warm but it's still very cozy.

Stop by and was greeted and put on a waiting list. The people there was awesome and the foods n drink was great. Will come back when this snow storm go away. Only bad thing was that they closed around 8 or 9pm.

We have given this place a few tries and both times the hostess was so rude and off putting. The interior is dirty and dingy And the lighting is horrible. Pizza was not very good.

Rude servers on a power trip. Don't think I will be returning..better places in Portland to have a beer at with nicer servers.

Brian and Amy are the best. Awesome selection of beers on draft. Ranch Pizza and Tamale Boy on-site for food. Cannot wait until all this COVID stuff is over so we can truly experience this slice of heaven in Happy Valley. This place is a must.

Best Taphouse in Oregon. 80+ taps, mixed drinks on tap, pizza restaurant, and taco restaurant, whiskey bar with fine dining downstairs. Nice outdoor seating with fire pits and heaters so in the winter it's not too cold. Upstairs seating, big TV's everywhere. 10/10 parking. AMAZING SERVICE. Good owners, good people, good beer. Nice they carry some good sour beers always too. Only thing I wish is that they would carry more than 2 sour beers. Great selection still. My favorite place to get a drink.

We very much enjoyed our visit! We had our pup with us who had her own personal water bowl built in next to our table. The pizza was insane! The spirits were great and the staff friendly. Highly recommend and can't wait until the rest of the restaurant is up and running. Great to have a new option in the area. Large patios for distance open air dining...

Due to Covid-19 I've only purchased to-go beer! I'm happy to say that while their beer menu is still heavy with IPA they now have more offerings for the non IPA beer drinker! Looking forward to the end of the Covid-19 pandemic to enjoy beer and a meal or two on premise!! Wishing Brian and Ami great success....Happy Valley really needed this place!
