Portland, OR

This week’s Friday Feast will actually focus on food! Yay! Tomorrow night, some friends and I are going to celebrate a boyfriend being in town by having happy hour at Portland City Grill. While this isn’t generally a finance-friendly place to eat dinner, we’ve found that the happy hour menu is fantastic and we can feed a group pretty cheaply!

Located on the 30th floor of the Unico/US Bankcorp Tower (111 SW Fifth Avenue, 97204), Portland City Grill offers a beautiful view of the fair city. Two full walls of the “bar” area are glass and you can enjoy the sun beaming in (not tomorrow night, though), watch the sunset (when the sun is actually out) and even see Mount St. Helens as she burps steam (on a clear day). If you’re lucky, you’ll actually be able to grab one of the corner booths and have the most perfect view of everything.

Happy Hour Menu
My favorite happy hour food items at Portland City Grill include their Teriyaki Chicken Rice Paper Spring Rolls ($2.95), the Thai Lemongrass Beef Tenderloin Satay ($3.95), the Ginger Hoisin Chicken Satay ($2.95), the Dungeness Crab & Bay Shrimp Bruschetta ($3.95) and the Dungeness Crab Cakes ($4.95) (and I don’t normally like crab OR shrimp!)!

So, if you’re looking to get out and have a cheap happy hour with a beautiful view of Portland, check out Portland City Grill and enjoy yourself!
