So, where to watch the game tonight in Portland? Barfly has a big list of bars playing the game here. We have some recomendations for you as well after the break…
Pipeline SE Pick: Tanker Bar, 4825 SE Hawthorne
If you are in the Barmuda Triangle, there really isn't a better place to watch the game than Tanker. They have great taps, several nice televisions giving a view pretty much everywhere in the bar happy hour until 8PM.
From Barfly Happy Hour info: Thursday $2 off grinders, $2.50 well, $1.50 doms, $3 micros 3-8pm
Pipeline SE Family Pick: Blitz Ladd, 2239 SE 11th Ave.
Kids are allowed in Blitz until 9PM and they have 15 52in HD TVs and a 12ft HD Projector. Bltz Ladd and Pearl have been having Civil War parties all year with prizes, so I am sure tonight will have a good crowd.
From Barfly Happy Hour info: Thursday $2.50+ Pints, $3.50 wells, $5 win 4-7pm, 10pm-midnight
Pipeline Pearl Pick: Blitz Pearl, corner of NW 10th and Couch
Blitz Pearl has 21 TVs and look above about the Civil War parties.
From Barfly Happy Hour info: Thursday $2.50+ Pints, $3.50 wells, $5 win 4-7pm, 10pm-midnight
Pipeline NE Pick: The Hilt, 1934 Northeast Alberta Street
If you haven't been to the Hilt yet, here is might be the time to do it. The owner is the same of Stark Naked Pizza and family of the Bonfire. Like the Bonfire, there is a pretty good menu with Greek items and good burger. Stark Naked was my secret location to watch Blazer playoff games last year due to the nice-sized HD Tv in the back. Well, that TV has moved up there plus they have added another one and I've heard good things about watching Blazers, so I am sure this will be nice as well. Barfly has no HH info on it, but I know it will go until 8PM and is the typical kind of $1 off well and micro things that most places have.
