Lindsey HughesMarch 22, 2015This bar is very cozy and upscale in the front, but there is a secret door that leads you to a speakeasy bar in the back. The back bar has fun games like shuffle board, pool, and darts.
Carlee PotterJune 7, 2013You gotta go with someone who knows the pin code to get into the speakeasy. It's so cool! PS: the key pad is inside the MAFIA book
lydia lauerSeptember 9, 2012The patio in the summer is wonderful. Fortunately they've got heaters for the rest of the year. The Moscow Mule is my fave drink, the fish & chips are hard to beat.
Amazing cocktails and delicious snacks. I really like the old Fashioned here
Bobby WeslowskiJuly 22, 2018Fried cauliflower, vegan & gluten free, served with chili lime peanut sauce... FOR THE WIN Y’ALL!!! 💣💣💣😍😍😍
Shelby StokichAugust 23, 2015Our bartender with the fire red lipstick was so awesome! She made some great cocktails and let us in on the speakeasy in the back.
Kimmie NguyenAugust 17, 2016Vegan burger! Best I've had in Portland. Butternut squash and apples with a great crust and spices.
I'd stay away on the weekends. But on a quiet night, this is a great spot for first-rate cocktails & delicious food.
Benjamin ChaitOctober 12, 2014Cocktails are great, and an impressive list of beers on tap. Outside is covered and has heaters during cool, rainy evenings.
Mike WalekeJune 5, 2016There might be better food in town, but the overall experience of circa is always top notch.
- Mike WalekeJanuary 11, 2016Don't forget to save room for the pudding, don't worry it is small but still rich enough to share.
Ros HodgekissApril 17, 2013Look for the secret 'back room' - it's behind the bookcase and is much quieter. If you can't find it, the staff may well help you ;)
Great food. Not crowded at open. Awesome service. And alley outside seating in the sun.- Jessica BergerFebruary 26, 2013Speakeasy open in the back thurs-sat, be sure to call ahead it is frequently rented out! Mafia book :)
Pretty sweet summer special @ Circa 33 --> Bulleit bourbon, burger, & beer for $10 every Wednesday!
Kirsten SouthwellAugust 8, 2014Felt really cool when I discovered the secret bar in the back. Then I found out it's not so secret.
JaredSeptember 3, 2014Whiskey selection was pretty good. Pappy Van Winkle was available, but pretty steep in price.
Nicole ConantAugust 8, 2011Get the calamari (fennel!) and sit on the back patio (spacious, clean and cute!)
Mckenzie PettersonApril 24, 2011Awesome waiter Marcus! I would like to apologize for my drunk friend. He's a champ tho and suffering through.
The mushroom lentil burger is probably the best non-meat burger in town.
Sarah LemmonNovember 13, 2010Fish n chips are d'lish. Grab a chair at the window for great people watching.
- Get Mini corn dogs @ Circa 33. Supposedly going off the happy hour menu soon.
