Went to Bacchus Bar on a Wednesday night for their Little Mic Comedy Open Mic. The bartender (handsome man with dreadlocks) was super kind and helpful. The hosts of the open mic were VERY welcoming. I will return.

Staff was so nice!! Barely any pictures of food so we didn’t think they sold food but their menu is amazing. I had the steak sandwich which was very tender and my boyfriend had the burger. It was super delicious!! And once again the staff is so friendly!

I was intrigued by the picture I saw online of a drink lit up inside of a coconut. Come to find out they do not have that drink, as it must have been a drink by the previous owners. Too bad, but the drinks were still tasty. The bar is literally in the lobby, across from the hotel counter to check in. But once we were seated it did t feel like we were in the lobby of a hotel.

The bartender Brad might be the most professional bartender I've seen in Portland even through he's unassuming. He made sure I felt special for my birthday.

The BEST Jell-O shots in town, $4/piece, but the espresso one comes with a homemade whipped cream, and the old fashioned one is strong and comes with an orange twist

RJ is amazing -a really talented bartender very skilled and kind. We had a group of four and he really took care of us at the bar. We felt very welcomed. The cocktails are very experiential and This place closes early and he kindly gave us a place to go after they close. The selection of alcohol was also amazing. My partner ordered some very specific stuff that we were impressed that they had. I got the cocktails on the menu which were yummy. One of the best drinks was excessive bacchanalia … gosh I’m spelling that wrong but it was Smokey and cinnamon and so good .
