Top clubs in Portland

In 2013, there were more than 8,800 clubs. This is the second year in a row that this statistic has increased so high. The number of bars that are located in the area is going up as well.

That is going to increase as well. It is kind of interesting that a club like Club Privata, that is a really cool club, but it is so well known in Portland that people are very interested in what a band like The B-52's are up to. The club has been around for almost ten years.

They are one of the most well-rounded bands of my generation that I have listened to. In fact, they made a video for their debut album. And I'm really excited about hearing a new song from them, because that is what I'm listening to on my iPhone right now.

It has been 10 years since I played a song from them in my car and it still does.

They also have an album out called "B-52's - The Greatest American Rock Band of All Time". Their album is coming out this summer and I'm really looking forward to it.

In regards to the number of bar that are located in Portland, it has been growing and growing, which I have noticed, as well.

If you look at what they are now, it shows up here as well. It is really interesting to see an area in the Northeast growing so rapidly that a lot of these bands are doing well in it.

You get a few places like that. Like I talked about earlier, the number of bars and clubs has grown exponentially since the early to mid 2000s. It is really interesting to see an area in the Northeast growing so rapidly that a lot of these bands are doing well in it. You get a few places like that. like The B-52's .

I have vivid memories of Dixie Tavern music club from my trip to Portland a few years ago. My business partner and I were eager to experience the local music scene, and Dixie Tavern was highly recommended by our friends. Located at 32 NW 3rd Ave, Portland, OR 97209, United States, Dixie Tavern certainly did not disappoint in terms of location. The exterior of the club was quaint and unassuming, but as soon as we stepped inside, the atmosphere was electric. The interiors were dimly lit, with a warm, red glow that permeated through every corner. The walls were lined with vintage posters and photographs of past performers, adding to the nostalgic ambiance. The DJ quality was exceptional, and the music selection ranged from classic rock to contemporary indie bands. However, our experience was somewhat marred by the exorbitant drink prices. High costs for basic beverages can leave a sour taste in one's mouth, especially when you're trying to enjoy a night out with friends. The drinks themselves were not particularly memorable either - they were simply average cocktails and beers that did little to enhance the overall experience. Despite this minor setback, I still fondly remember Dixie Tavern for its unique vibe and authenticity. It truly felt like a hidden gem that only the locals knew about. The crowd was friendly and diverse, with everyone from young adults to seasoned music enthusiasts mingling together. As we left the club at the end of the night, we couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for the past - a time when music clubs were less commercialized and more focused on the art form itself. Dixie Tavern embodied this spirit, and I hope it continues to thrive in today's rapidly changing world. Today's news has brought to light some concerning developments in the entertainment industry, with reports of artists being mistreated and underpaid for their work. As a music lover and advocate for fair wages, I urge all music clubs and venues to prioritize the well-being and compensation of their performers. After all, without them, there would be no music scene to enjoy in the first place. In conclusion, my experience at Dixie Tavern was a mixed bag - while the atmosphere and DJ quality were excellent, the drink prices left something to be desired. Nevertheless, I still hold fond memories of that night and hope to return one day soon. Here's hoping that the club continues to uphold its unique spirit and support local musicians in the years ahead.

As someone who is only passing through Portland, I stumbled upon Holocene by sheer luck. It was a chilly evening, and my friend and I had just finished a hearty dinner at a nearby restaurant. We were discussing our next move when she remembered reading about an intimate music club called Holocene in the local newspaper. Excited at the prospect of experiencing some live music, we decided to give it a try. The address was scribbled down on a napkin, and we set out into the night, armed with nothing but our sense of direction and a map. Now, let me tell you, Portland is not exactly easy to navigate for someone who's not used to its winding streets and quirky landmarks. We made a few wrong turns and stumbled upon some strange alleyways before finally arriving at Holocene. But oh, was it worth the adventure! The moment we stepped inside, I could feel the energy of the place. Dimly lit, with soft-glowing lanterns hanging from the ceiling, it had an intimate, cozy vibe that immediately drew me in. The sound of a guitar strumming and a gentle voice singing filled the air, and I knew we had come to the right place. The crowd was diverse - young and old, couples holding hands, groups of friends chatting animatedly, all united by their love for music. We found a spot in the back corner, where we could watch the performers up close without getting in anyone's way. The music was spellbinding - a mix of indie folk and soulful ballads that left us mesmerized. I found myself swaying to the rhythm, lost in the moment. As the night wore on, we ordered some drinks from the friendly bartender, who recommended a local craft beer that was both delicious and refreshing. The atmosphere grew more lively as people danced and sang along with the music. It was such a contrast to the hustle and bustle of the city outside - here, in this tiny corner of Portland, we were all connected by our love for something beautiful. As we left Holocene that night, tired but content, I felt a sense of gratitude for discovering such a hidden gem. It had been an unexpected adventure, but one that had left a lasting impression on me. In the midst of a world that often seems chaotic and disconnected, there's something special about finding a place where people can come together and simply be present - to listen to music, to share a drink or a conversation, to feel alive in the moment. That's what I experienced at Holocene, and it's an experience that will stay with me long after we leave Portland behind. Today's news has been dominated by talks of climate change and its impact on the environment. It's easy to get bogged down by the scale of the problem, the overwhelming statistics that seem insurmountable. But tonight, in Holocene, I was reminded of something else - the power of community, the importance of coming together to create something beautiful, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant it may be. In this age of technology and instant gratification, there's something refreshing about finding a place where people can just be, for a little while, and appreciate the simple things in life. And that's something that gives me hope - hope that we as a society can still make a difference, one small step at a time. As I drift off to sleep tonight, I'm reminded of the words of the singer we saw at Holocene - "Every little thing is gonna be alright. It may sound like a cliche, but sometimes, all you need is a little reminder that things will work themselves out, that there are still beautiful moments to be found in this world. And that's what I experienced tonight at Holocene - a moment of beauty, of hope, of community. And for that, I'm grateful.

As a self-proclaimed music aficionado, I've had the pleasure of experiencing some incredible live shows at various venues around the city. But none have left quite as lasting an impression on me as Hawthorne Theatre in southeast Portland. Located at 1507 SE 39th Ave, this cozy little music club has been a favorite haunt of mine ever since I stumbled upon it years ago with a group of coworkers. At the time, I have to admit, I was less than thrilled about the limited seating situation. It seemed as though every time we visited, the place was packed to the brim with eager music fans, leaving us cramped and uncomfortable during breaks from dancing. But over time, I've come to appreciate the intimate and cozy atmosphere that Hawthorne Theatre fosters. The interiors of this joint are a feast for the senses: colorful murals adorn the walls, creating an otherworldly and whimsical backdrop against which the live performances unfold. The lighting is dim and moody, casting everything in a soft, dreamlike glow that's both romantic and enchanting. And the DJ quality? Well, let's just say that every time I catch a set here, I can't help but shake my groove thing with reckless abandon. But what really sets Hawthorne Theatre apart from other music clubs in the area is its commitment to fostering a sense of community and connection among its patrons. It's not uncommon for strangers to strike up conversations during intermission, bonding over their shared love of music and the infectious energy that fills the air. And with recent developments like Marie Makuate's call for more African countries to launch their own satellites into orbit (as reported in today's news), it's clear that the spirit of collaboration and innovation is alive and well at Hawthorne Theatre. In short, if you're looking for a music club that's more than just a place to see live shows, I highly recommend checking out Hawthorne Theatre. The atmosphere is electric, the interiors are breathtaking, and the sense of community is palpable. Trust me, your ears (and your soul) will thank you.

I recently visited Soho Restaurant & Music Club while on a business trip in Santa Barbara. This is quite an interesting place located right at the heart of the city, just across from Arlington Theatre and a stone's throw away from Stearns Wharf. As an accountant working with numbers all day, it was a nice break to spend my evening here, sipping some fine wine and listening to live music.
I arrived around 8 PM on a Saturday night. The place was buzzing with energy; the aroma of delicious food and live jazz music filled the air. I had been recommended this place by a local friend who lives in Santa Barbara, so my expectations were high.
As soon as I entered Soho Restaurant & Music Club, I was greeted warmly by the staff. The hostess who welcomed me had an amiable smile and her attire was impeccable; she looked quite professional and courteous. I was led to a corner table which offered a perfect view of both the stage and the crowd.
The ambience was cozy yet vibrant. Dimly lit chandeliers adorned the ceiling, while paintings of famous musicians lined the walls. The music was soothing and it seemed like everyone in the room was enjoying themselves.
I ordered their signature dish - a grilled chicken breast served with sautéed vegetables and mashed potatoes. It was absolutely scrumptious; the chicken was cooked to perfection and the vegetables added an earthy touch to the meal. The presentation was elegant, making it all the more enjoyable.
The live music that evening was by a talented jazz band. Their rendition of classic tunes had everyone tapping their feet and swaying to the beat. It was evident that the musicians were passionate about their work. They took regular breaks between songs and engaged with the audience, which made the experience even more memorable.
Throughout the evening, I observed the staff working diligently behind the scenes. The waitresses moved swiftly from one table to another, ensuring everyone's needs were met. Their uniforms were clean and well-maintained, reflecting their pride in being part of such a renowned establishment.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Soho Restaurant & Music Club on State Street, Santa Barbara with my business partner during one of our working trips. Being an entertainment enthusiast, I was thrilled to find a place that not only offered excellent food but also live music and a cozy atmosphere. From the moment we entered the venue, I could feel the energy and vibrance that this establishment exudes.

The Soho Restaurant & Music Club is nestled on State Street, a bustling commercial area in Santa Barbara with a mix of upscale shops, trendy cafes, and unique attractions. As a frequent visitor to Inglewood, I've always been fascinated by the variety of experiences that this city has to offer, and Soho was no exception.

The restaurant boasts an extensive menu featuring a wide array of dishes from different cuisines. My partner and I decided on sharing a few appetizers and entrees between us. We started with the stuffed mushrooms and bruschetta, both of which were delightfully tasty and had us coming back for more. For our main courses, we opted for the grilled salmon and chicken fettuccine alfredo, which were cooked to perfection and left us thoroughly satisfied.

But the real highlight of our visit was the live music that played throughout the evening. The band was incredibly talented, playing an eclectic mix of tunes that had everyone in the restaurant tapping their feet and singing along. The music was a perfect complement to the delicious food and made for a memorable dining experience.

What impressed me the most about Soho Restaurant & Music Club was its ability to create a comfortable and inviting ambiance.

While I appreciate the positive review by Harper Hewiitt, I cannot fully agree with her opinion on Soho Restaurant & Music Club. My experience at this restaurant was quite different from hers, and I believe there are some aspects that should be taken into consideration before making a conclusion about this establishment.
Firstly, I found the prices to be quite steep for what they offer. Although the food was well-presented and tasted good, it didn't live up to the high price point. The appetizers we ordered, such as stuffed mushrooms and bruschetta, were overpriced and not worth the cost. Additionally, the main courses did not impress me either. While the grilled salmon was cooked nicely, the chicken fetuccine alfredo seemed bland and lacked flavor.
Another issue that I encountered during my visit was the noise level. The live music, while entertaining, was too loud, making it difficult to have a conversation with my dining partner. This is not ideal for a place that claims to offer a cozy atmosphere. Moreover, the staff did not seem attentive and often took a long time to attend to our requests.
Lastly, I disagree with Harper's praise for the decor. While the lighting was warm and inviting, the booths were too small and cramped, making it uncomfortable to sit in for an extended period of time.
In conclusion, while Soho Restaurant & Music Club has its moments, there are several aspects that need improvement before it can be considered a must-visit destination. The high prices, lackluster food, excessive noise level, and uncomfortable seating arrangements make it difficult for me to recommend this restaurant to others.

Last night I had an unforgettable evening at Balcony Music Club, a cozy spot nestled in the heart of New Orleans' French Quarter. Tucked away just off Bourbon Street and Jackson Square, this music club offers live jazz and blues performances that transport you back in time.
As soon as I entered the dimly lit venue, I was captivated by its intimate atmosphere. The stage was already set up for a live act, and booths lined the walls, creating an inviting space for guests to relax and enjoy the music.
I arrived around 9 PM on a Saturday night, just in time to catch the band's first set. Their soulful and energetic sound had me tapping my feet and singing along in no time. The place quickly filled up with locals and tourists alike, all eagerly joining in on the dance floor as the night progressed.
The staff at Balcony Music Club were incredibly friendly and attentive throughout the evening, checking in on me regularly to ensure I had everything I needed. They even recommended some unique cocktails inspired by famous New Orleans figures like Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau and pirate Jean Lafitte.
Towards the end of the night, I struck up a conversation with a kind local who shared her love for Balcony Music Club with me. She regaled me with tales of its rich history and how it's become an important gathering place for musicians and music enthusiasts alike.
Overall, my experience at Balcony Music Club was nothing short of magical. From the lively atmosphere to the talented musicians and friendly staff, this venue truly feels like a second home. I can't wait to return again soon and continue making cherished memories with both old friends and new acquaintances.

One memorable incident I recall happened at Balcony Music Club was when a lover had an argument with one of the staff members. It was during a romantic evening when the atmosphere was filled with soft melodies from a soulful jazz band. A couple sitting by the corner seemed to be in bliss, enjoying each other's company while sipping on their drinks. However, things took a turn for the worse when the man got into an argument with one of the staff members over what he perceived as poor service.
The situation escalated quickly, drawing attention from other patrons who were initially enjoying the soothing music. It became evident that the couple was experiencing some underlying issues in their relationship. Despite the tense atmosphere, the musicians continued to play, drowning out the argument with their beautiful tunes. In no time, the staff managed to resolve the issue amicably and the couple resumed their night, albeit a bit shaken but still appreciative of the music that had filled the air.
This incident serves as a testament to Balcony Music Club's unique ability to create an environment where people can connect with each other on a deeper level. Whether it's through sharing a love for great music or offering support during difficult moments, this place truly embodies the spirit of New Orleans – a city known for its lively culture and vibrant community spirit.

As a native of New Haven, Connecticut, I have always been drawn to the vibrant music scene found in various cities across the United States. While visiting my wife's family in Louisiana, we decided to take a weekend trip to New Orleans, known for its rich history and diverse musical heritage. Upon arrival, we were eager to explore the local music clubs and experience the city's unique sound.

We began our journey from Jackson Square, an iconic point of interest in New Orleans that is easily accessible by public transportation or a leisurely walk through the French Quarter. From here, it was a short 15-minute stroll along the historic streets lined with historic buildings and eclectic shops before we reached our destination - Balcony Music Club at 1331 Decatur St, New Orleans, LA 70116, United States.

Experience electrifying fusion of old and new beats at CMXD, nestled in bustling downtown Mexico City. Dance the night away with traditional Mexican drinks and bites while surrounded by soft lighting. Conveniently located near historic center and airports, this trendy hub is a must-visit for an unforgettable night out during your stay in Mexico City.

As a traveler who has been to many clubs around the world, I must say that my experience at Music Club CMXD was underwhelming compared to Noah Briggs' review. While it is true that Mexico City has a rich music history and vibrant atmosphere, Music Club CMXD fell short in several aspects for me.
Firstly, the live performances were not as diverse as I had hoped. The club mainly featured local musicians playing traditional Mexican music such as Mariachi and Folklore. While this might be appealing to some tourists who are interested in experiencing authentic Mexican culture, it did not cater to my preference for a mix of genres.
Secondly, the atmosphere was far from intimate. Despite being in a lively neighborhood, the club was overcrowded and noisy. The dim lighting made it difficult to see the stage and interact with other patrons. Additionally, the cozy seating arrangements were limited and uncomfortable for someone like me who prefers standing during live performances.
Thirdly, while the bar tenders were friendly, their knowledge of cocktails was lacking. The menu lacked variety and creativity, making it difficult to find a drink that would complement the music. The Mexican dishes served were also mediocre at best, lacking in flavor and presentation.
Lastly, the location of Music Club CMXD was not convenient for tourists staying in the Centro Histórico district. A short walk down Callé Bolívár may sound like an easy journey, but navigating through the busy streets of Mexico City can be daunting for first-time visitors.
Overall, my experience at Music Club CMXD did not live up to the expectations set by Noah Briggs' review. While I appreciate the effort put into promoting local musicians and traditional music, I believe there are better options for tourists who want to experience the vibrant music scene of Mexico City.

Last summer, my wife and I decided to take a little break from our daily routine as dentists in Dover, Delaware, and head down to Mexico for a short vacation. We chose to visit Tijuana, the vibrant city known for its lively atmosphere, rich culture, and of course, great nightlife. While exploring the city, we came across Music Club Tijuana, located at 3401-5, Condominio Gallego Plantas Blvd. Agua Caliente, Chapultepec, Centro, 22420 Tijuana, B.C., Mexico. This place quickly became one of our favorite spots during our stay.
The journey from Dover to Music Club Tijuana was quite the adventure. We started by taking a flight from Philadelphia International Airport to San Diego International Airport. From there, we took a taxi to the border crossing at Otay Mesa and walked across the border into Tijuana. Once in Mexico, we took another taxi to our hotel in Zona Rio, which is just a short distance away from Music Club Tijuana.
On the night of our visit, we decided to dress up and head out for a night of fun and entertainment. The club is located in a condo building on Blvd. Agua Caliente, so it can be a bit tricky to find if you're not familiar with the area. We followed the signs that pointed towards Condominio Gallego Plantas and soon enough, we spotted the bright neon lights of Music Club Tijuana.
As we entered the club, we were greeted by the sound of lively music and the smell of delicious food. The club has a spacious dance floor, which was packed with people dancing to the beat of the music. There were also several bars throughout the venue, which made it easy for us to grab a drink while enjoying the atmosphere.
One of the things that really stood out about Music Club Tijuana is their attention to detail. The decorations and lighting were tastefully done, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We also appreciated the fact that they played a mix of classic and modern music, which made it easy for us to find something we both enjoyed.
Overall, our experience at Music Club Tijuana was nothing short of amazing. It was a great way to unwind after a long day of exploring the city, and we will definitely be back on our next trip to Tijuana. If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend checking out this fantastic music club!

Last summer, my business partner and I decided to take a break from our hectic schedule and visit Music Club Tijuana during our trip to Tijuana. As someone born in Waynebsoro, Pennsylvania, visiting this vibrant city and experiencing its nightlife was an unforgettable experience for me. Located at 3401-5, Condominio Gallego Plant B, Blvd. Agua Caliente, Chapultepec, Centro, 22420 Tijuana, B.C., Mexico, Music Club Tijuana offers a unique atmosphere that combines music and entertainment in one place.
Upon entering the club, we were immediately greeted by the lively ambiance. The dimly lit interior was adorned with colorful lights, creating an intimate environment for patrons to enjoy their night out. As we made our way through the crowded dance floor, I noticed that the DJ was skillfully spinning a mix of contemporary and classic tunes that had everyone dancing. My business partner and I decided to grab a drink at the bar and strike up a conversation with a fellow patron.
As the night progressed, we noticed a strange visitor enter the club. This individual seemed out of place and caused a stir among the patrons. It wasn't long before security intervened and asked him to leave. However, the visitor refused to comply and began causing a scene. At this point, the police were called in to diffuse the situation.
Despite this minor incident, Music Club Tijuana provided an enjoyable experience for us. The friendly staff, lively atmosphere, and diverse selection of music made it a memorable night out. As someone who was born and raised in Waynebsoro, I appreciate the opportunity to explore new cultures and experiences. If you're ever in Tijuana, be sure to check out Music Club Tijuana for an unforgettable evening of entertainment.

While Damian Howe had a generally positive experience at Music Club Tijuana, I would like to present an alternative perspective that contradicts some of the arguments made in his review. Firstly, while it is true that the club offers a unique atmosphere combining music and entertainment, it is important to note that not everyone may enjoy this kind of environment. Some patrons may prefer a quieter atmosphere where they can have conversations without being drowned out by loud music.
Secondly, while Howe praises the friendly staff, it should be mentioned that there were issues with security during his visit. The fact that a stranger caused a stir and had to be removed by police raises concerns about the club's safety measures. It is essential for clubs like Music Club Tijuana to ensure that their patrons feel safe and secure while they enjoy themselves.
Lastly, while Howe appreciates the opportunity to explore new cultures and experiences, it is crucial to recognize that not everyone shares this sentiment. Some people may prefer to stick to what they know and avoid venturing into unfamiliar territory. Furthermore, some patrons may find the combination of music and entertainment off-putting or overwhelming.
In conclusion, while Music Club Tijuana may provide an enjoyable experience for some, it is essential to consider that not everyone will have the same positive reaction as Howe did. It is crucial for clubs like this one to ensure that they cater to a diverse range of tastes and preferences in order to provide a memorable experience for all their patrons.
