Lazy Days Brewing Co — Local services in Portland

PORTLAND, Ore. — Tucked into the rhythmically laid-back industrial corridors of Southeast Portland, Lazy Days Brewing Co is anything but idle. This quietly confident newcomer has swiftly become a sanctuary for beer lovers seeking craft excellence without pretension—a place where meticulous brewing meets Pacific Northwest charm.

The taproom itself is warm but minimal, echoing Portland’s affinity for comfort without clutter. Here, the sense of community is as present as the faint aroma of hops drifting from the back of house. At Lazy Days, the beer is the star, and its supporting cast is strong.

Take TRILLIUM, for example. A vibrant, citrus-forward IPA with a restrained bitterness and soft mouthfeel, it’s as bright as an early summer afternoon. Grapefruit and mango dominate the palate, with a subtle herbal edge that invites sip after sip. It’s a beer that shows intention and skill, not bravado.

PROJECT PALE MARY, a standout pale ale, plays a different tune—earthy, resinous, and classically American in its hop structure. It’s assertive without being aggressive, showcasing a deft balance between malt and bitterness. There’s something nostalgic here, a reminder of what made Pacific Northwest brewing iconic to begin with.

For those leaning toward the crisper side of the spectrum, YONDER CIDER VANTAGE offers a refreshing detour. Technically a guest cider, it feels entirely at home on the menu. Bright, dry, and elegant, VANTAGE balances orchard-fresh apple character with a clean finish, pairing beautifully with the brewery’s frequent pop-up food vendors or a lazy golden hour on the patio.

What sets Lazy Days apart isn’t just the liquid in the glass—it’s the ease of the entire experience. The staff are informed but unintrusive, the music is just loud enough to complement a conversation, and the design—clean lines, warm woods, and clever branding—feels effortlessly lived-in.

In a city saturated with excellent beer, Lazy Days Brewing Co doesn’t try to outdo anyone. Instead, it invites you to slow down, take a sip, and stay awhile. And that, in Portland, might be the boldest...

Their Detroit style pizza is where it's at! I drive all the way across town for it, and order an extra pie or two for leftovers. We have a glut of mediocre pizza in Portland with unoriginal new options popping up all the time (don't get me started on smash burgers LOL). But I'll suffer mild gluten sensitivity for Lazy Days' perfectly pillowy crust, perfectly spiced sauce, and dilligently selected toppings. Plus the beer and cocktail offerings are good too. Atmosphere is warehousey and loud inside, but the outdoor seating is nice--right across the from a park on a quiet street--as long as no one brings their shrieking kids or...

My wife and I strolled passed this location and saw all of the good reviews and decided to try it out. Let me tell you, the food was hot and delicious and were complemented well with a delicious light lager beer and a Paloma cocktail. The fries had a perfect amount of seasoning and crispness and the pizza was no where near shy of missing cheese nor sauce. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a chill spot for some delicious...
