Wow! What a space. Endless spirit selections, excellent design, comfy seatings ...like the old timey man cave of your dreams. Plus 90s RnB! ("neo soul" to be precise)
"We have a beautiful table for your party. Unfortunately guests have overstayed their welcome, so you'll be seated at the bar this evening." Pro tip: Buy them a round and ask them politely to GTFO.
I'd give this place 1000 thumbs up. Green room was very cool. Excellent staff . YEA, you have to wait to get to the library , but man is it worth it. Enjoy spirits of choice. I'd go 100 times.
Amazing service, atmosphere, music , and drinks. I ordered a rye old fashion and they made it for me right by my seat! This place is awesome, absolutely will come back and bring all my friends.
You like Whiskey ? This is your place. With an entrance that feels ripped from a mystery novel and a beautifully kept atrium, this place truly sets the mood for an equally amazing drink selection.
Amazing location and a matching collection of 400+ single malt whiskies incl. closed distilleries . Prices from 5$ to above 500$ per 4cl. Some are a bit pricy compared to the collectors bottle price.
The Multnomah Whiskey Library has nursed long lines and wait times since day one. The crowds are flocking for the gorgeously appointed room and the some-1,500 bottles of booze that line the walls.
If you love whiskey , or a dim and lux environment, this is the spot. Either come early and get your name on the list, then walk around the neighborhood for a bit, or pay for a reservation .
This is the man cave you've always wanted to hang out in. Whiskey lovers, you won't be disappointed: there are over 1,000+ types here. Great atmosphere. Definitely bring a few friends or a date.
It's a must! The staff are beyond knowledgable , professional and friendly . There is an unparalleled selection of spirits and the cocktails never disappoint.
Amazing selection of all kinds of Whisk(e)ys! Nearly 900 bottles and 1,500+ including other spirits . Definitely be not afraid to ask for recommendations!
Portland’s hottest restaurant is a speakeasy-like bar in a former piano store, with stained-glass skylights and more than 1,100 types of whiskey . Order an Old-Fashioned from the roving bar cart .
Great cocktail lounge , friendly staff , huge selection of whiskies available in a speakeasy-like environment. Certainly a visit worth making while in downtown Portland

I've been to bars the world over, and very few can match this selection, service, and ambiance. Be prepared to wait or make a reservation . It's worth it. Very worth it.
Pages and pages of things of things to try. George Dickel is a good way to start if you are into Whiskeys .
Huge whisk{e}y collection here. If you feel overwhelmed by your options, tell your bartender what you generally like and they'll find something special and new for you.
Impressed by the whisky , cocktails and food. The interior is a good mix of modern and classic. Bartenders are friendly too... Not as pretentious as it looks.
You have to love any place that's been described (by Thrillist) as "less a bar than a church of mash set up to look like the 1920's finest gentleman's lounge (minus the cigar smoke and hookers)."
Whisky , whiskey and bourbon . As impressive a list as you're likely to find anywhere. Very knowledgeable staff .
A time machine to the peak of 19th century class , their selection is astounding and their service is impeccable. Oysters , Brussels Sprouts , apple pie a la mode.
While the whiskey wall is impressive the cocktails alone, made table side on the trolley, are well worth the trip.
This is by far my favorite bar I've ever been to. Our bartender was amazing, the atmosphere was amazing, all of it simply amazing
Exactly what the internet says...there was a wait. Burger was cooked well , Brussels sprouts were well seasoned. Lots of rye choices. People seemed more dressed up than usual in Portland.
Ambiance, selection, and exclusive feel is amazing! Get a mixed cocktail or pick from the library bible.
The upstairs is incredibly impressive, though a really long wait . Big selection of whiskey with helpful bartenders for newbies like me.
You can get half-pours (flight style) if you'd prefer to taste several spirits . After all, the more the merrier!
Great bartenders , dizzying selection of whiskey , cozy atmosphere
A ton of whiskey to choose from and they also make other drinks!
Old Fashioned cocktail is best I've had in Portland. Very cool touch to watch them prepare in front of you.
Even if you just grab a drink downstairs in the Green Room, sneak a peek of the whiskey library upstairs!
Their cocktails and their food is amazing. They have a good mezcal assortment too!
This temple of whiskey is worth the wait, for both rare spirits and well-made cocktails .
Thousands of bottles of whiskey and other spirits , plus cocktails served from custom bar carts .
Most extensive whiskey collection I've ever seen. Get an old fashioned , was the best I've ever had
Definitely worth the wait! Killer staff , amazing selection & wonderful atmosphere!
Great place to sit at the bar alone and have a great cocktail , or to go with someone special
Loved the drinks and atmosphere. Plus the bartender is a real artist
They really do act like a library (though not as quiet ). The whisky list is intimidating, which is how I like it.
It something the wait for a neat experience complete with table-side drink creations!
What a cool place to try whiskeys not typically available to the public
Get on the list, head across the street to Tasty & Alder for dinner and your seat should be ready when you're done.
Amazing selection in a very cool setting
The ambience is The Thing. Unless you're willing to spend Benjimans on whiskey drams. The Old Fashion was a little weak. The oysters were awful. Do it once, then try Clyde Common. Quality..
This is a breathtaking bar with a world beating spirits selection . Order cocktails from the trolley.
Classy place , with an amazing collection of drinks and extremely knowledgeable bartenders !
talk to the bartenders ! They have so much knowledge
Food is awesome! I had the bison steak . The waiters know their stuff.
Check out the whiskey sour . I've never liked them until I had a real one here. Delicious
A night out on town .. food is amazing
