Great pizza, very good beer, and the best barman on the west coast. Seriously. He drew a map to Belmont Station, and helped me get oriented for getting around in Portland. The sampler for the beer, however, is a joke. TWO OUNCE GLASSES??? I guess they’d be OK for knocking back shots of beer, but for tasters??? Gimme a break. They fill them almost to the rim so you get as much beer as possible, but then there is no way to appreciate the aroma. I watched the barman trying to fill them. Laurelwood loses because the glasses are not saving any money, and your customers your customer lose a chance to really taste an appreciate the beer.

One of my favorite places in Portland. Great small/personal atmosphere. Excellent beer. It’s been a while since I’ve been there, so I don’t remember exactly what the food was like, I just remember I liked it :)

This Laurelwood location has a small B&B type of feel to it. Light hardwood floors and bright and sunny windows allow this small space not to feel too cramped. Service was waitress as well as one or two bar staff, so very adequate staffing for the size of the place, but it does seem to stay busy. 8 house taps, no guests, but Laurelwoods beers are good enough. They had the seasonal Espresso Stout made with Stumptown coffee which was excellent. This place is a nice reprieve from the boutique and salon infested trendy 23rd street area. Might be worth the (less than 5 min) walk from NOL if you don’t plan to visit another Laurelwood location. Reasonable happy hour prices.

Great food. Good ales. Service can be overwhelmed at times, but always working hard. Very willing to discuss ale issues, where time permits. Parking is very difficult - plan at least two blocks away to get an hour zone. There’s lots of competition for it.

This is indeed a large house, with books and games inside to play as you whittle away the time awaiting food or drinking a pint. Fairly decent selection of brews, food selection was very good and high in quality. Staff was pretty helpful, and even though it was a weekend, we got to park right in front and didn’t have to wait for a table. It was far from dead inside, though. I’m recommending this place.

I went in on a Saturday night thinking it was going to be busy there, but it had a nice mellow crowd, not too loud. The bartender was nice and friendly, and didn’t act like we were bothering her, and I’ve noticed a quite few bartenders in Portland that act like you’re bothering them. There’s a little bit of indoor seating and quite a few chairs outside. The inside has an orange wash paint job on the walls, with a mixture of odd, antique-like furnishings. The selection is good. They had about 7 regular beers and two seasonals. No guest taps. I didn’t have any food but it sure smelt good in there at times.

Like others have said, it has the appearance of an old house, and inside it’s small but very comfortable. Small bar area on the first floor, happy hour food and drink specials in the afternoon, and decent people all around. I can imagine sitting outside would be nice, but of course it was raining on the day I visited, so I sat up at the bar. I will visit again, the house has a lot of character,

A Charleston, SC looking house. Big and White, but still easy to miss. We sat upstairs out on the balcony. Pleasant selection of brews. Food looked pretty good here. Hopnessmonster ordered a huge dog. The beer was organic and very inviting. I remend this place as a stop in PDX

Located about half a block off of 23rd in the "Alphabet District", this is basically a house that could very easily be missed by your average person. There is a deck out front with some chairs, which is labelled as their non-smoking area. I stopped here at about 11:30am and I was the only person there other than a couple of businessmen for lunch. The interior is pretty clean and quite bright with an orangeish appearance. Smallish bar with maybe about 8 seats with 2 TVs. Bathroom was clean and somewhat small from my recollection--not overly ornate. Quiet place. I ordered 5 of their 5 ounce samples for $1a piece. I believe they had 8 beers on tap. All of the beers were extremely solid and well above average. I did not have any of the food. The bartender and waitress were really interested in my rating and thought the concept of a site like RB was awesome. They both asked me to write the link to the site down for further perusal. They seemed pretty knowledgeable about the beers and were obviously big fans of organic beer. I’d definitely go again.

Only had the clam chowder for food. It was very good. Another big sampler tray. Bar staff were very friendly and helpful. I want to move to Portland.
