Editorial Review for White Eagle – by Anne Marie DiStefano
In Short
Portland's oldest continuously operating bar is now part of the McMenamins' empire. As usual, the brewpub barons have retained vintage details while raising the level of funkiness--and cleanliness. The long, narrow space is dominated by an ornate, 19th-century back bar. Flame-like light fixtures and an elaborate tile floor add to the Victorian feel. Mostly young, laid-back people eat pub fare and enjoy local folk and country acts on the low stage.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoThe rooms upstairs, once a brothel, have been thoroughly renovated into an inexpensive hostel. Call (503) 335-8900 for reservations.
The ExtrasLegend has it that the White Eagle is haunted by a prostitute who met with a violent death there, and maybe a drunken sailor or two.
What to DrinkIn addition to McMenamins' well-known microbrews, the White Eagle features their proprietary Edgefield wines and cocktails made with their own gin.
Where to SitIf the weather permits, picnic tables line a spacious beer garden outside.

Just went for our first time last Saturday and really enjoyed it. It was the first time for belly dancing there and we were really glad we got to see them perform. Each dancer was awesome, unique and fun to watch. We liked that they really got the crowd involved. Very cool! We really enjoyed the drummer and guitar player that started it all off, great music guys! Really a fun place to relax and see something different - we could tell the performers were having as much fun as we were.... oh and we liked the food and good prices too. Will definitely be going back and taking our friends with us.

If you are a musician, or simply a music lover, this is absolutely, hands-down THE best place to catch an open mic in the city of Portland. Not only is the audience consistently attentive, the musicians that play White Eagle on Sunday night open mic are incredibly talented. I myself play there, and while I consider myself talented, I am always impressed, even intimidated by the high caliber of music that other musicians play. Blues, folk, country, rock, you name it-- the Portland musicians that come here are top of the line. Sunday night at 8 is when you want to come to the White Eagle. Trust me, you will have a blast, either playing guitar on stage or simply soaking up the good vibes. And no, I do not work there. :) I am just stoked to have found a great, respectful place to play my songs, and to listen to others, too.
Pros: EXCELLENT music on Sunday nights, NON-smoking
Cons: Beers are over $4, food is a bit expensive
