A spirited, warm and inviting door has opened amongst the profusion of artsy boutiques, shops and cafes in Northwest Portland. North 45 lures you in with tastes, sights and sounds from around our world and genuinely happy faces welcoming you in to theirs. The proprietors of North 45 are two travel mates who have very different and eclectic life stories, but have come together to bring Portland their very own upscale travel pub. The idea was born while they were backpacking through South America together in 2005. “We wanted to incorporate the intimacy and social elements of a pub, without labeling ourselves as an Irish or English pub. We figured a travel-themed pub is something that everybody can relate to and/or be the source of inspiration.” North 45, the name inspired by the pub’s location on the 45th parallel, is a cozy place to meet your neighbors or people watch with friends while sipping one of our seasoned bartenders’ specialties. It is also the perfect place for an intimate candle-lit dinner for two over one of the seven differently prepared mussels and pommes frites dishes. If whiskey is your weakness, choose from over 150 bottles of some the finest bourbons, ryes, Irish and Scotch whiskies around. North 45 also features a rotating wine list and an extensive collection of delicious Belgian beers.
