Expatriate

We tried to go here at 9:45 on a Friday night. Seemed like a cool place, but they wouldn’t seat our party of 3 despite the fact that they had a big table, 2 bar seats, and 2 outdoor tables open. They were apparently saving the bigger table in case a larger party showed up (which didn’t happen in the time we waited, so apparently they hate money 🤷‍♀️). We communicated to them that we would be flexible and leave or relocate to stand at the bar if a larger party arrived, but they refused. Stood around waiting for 15 min before giving up and going to the much cooler, chiller bar next door.

Met the owner and had a lovely chat. The fries that everyone talks about combined with their curry ketchup are the truth. The nachos are unique and well portioned for two. I did like the cocktail menu, but what made the experience was their bartender and the atmosphere. A great date night, thank you Expatriate team!

Really great craft cocktail bar....depending on who's mixing. If Mike is behind the bar you'll enjoy some of the best cocktails in Portland. They spin cool vinyl records which is a perfect fit for the funky vibe of this joint. Go for the drinks. I haven't been happy with the food but I just read they've added a spicy chicken sandwich that is considered the best in Portland. I need to try this.
