Driftwood Room: Reviews & Ratings
Absolutely love this bar Great decor and vibe. More than just bar bites, some really nice dishes on offer and great selection of drinks including non alcoholic cocktails
Convenient for the restaurant to be in the lobby especially for the first night of checking in and bring hungry after landing in Portland. My husband ate the Italian pork meatballs a d I had the prawn skewers. Both so amazing! Customer service from Jeff and Carmen were making me feel welcomed and comfortable. The bread and butter so good! And of course for desert we had the chocolate chip cookie with ice cream! Thanks for creating such a wonderful memory for our vacation!
Yup! Bartender from Seattle is a good dude and makes good drinks. I tried two drinks I’d never heard of before, ended with a gin and tonic to smooth it out. A service all around. Good atmosphere too.
Very cool and unique lounge. It was dark and moody. Jeff, the mixologist was very knowledgeable and accommodating to our cocktail requests. Great place, kind of underground and hip at the same time. We loved the retro jazz beats that were playing in the background. If you like to try different places off the beaten path, I highly recommend!
Classy. Charming. Unique.
The bar is very dimly lit, so it’s a little hard to see inside. Nice place for an intimate conversation. Great drinks and attentive service.
Great little spot with friendly staff and a good range of food. Be prepared to soak up the atmosphere for a bit if it's busy though. Lovely absenthe selection as well.
This spot is worth a stop while in downtown. The food and atmosphere are very good. The highlight in my opinion is the drinks. They have an excellent selection of drinks/cocktails, with very friendly staff. I look forward to our next visit.
