A vegan bar with Indian food themes sounds amazing and it almost was.
The food was pretty good, I'm not vegan nor do I have a preference for it, but I absolutely destroyed the burger and fries I was served. Was it $18 good? No, probably closer to $14 or $15 good. The masala fries. My buddy purchased our definitely the way to go. They were loaded and delicious!
But at the end of the day at a bar like this, you're paying for the ambiance, and boy does it have that in spades. The overhead lighting, brass finishings, murals and floral backing to the central booths. Give this place very cozy yet Whimsical vibe.
When I walked in with my buddy it was quite busy and it felt a little understaffed, and apparently it was because right after a big pop hit another weight staff came in for their shift lol. Can't fault anyone for that.
Now my buddy and I sat near the windows on the far side of the bar and whatever they had done to insulate the windows was not working, there's a very strong and cold draft constantly pushing against my legs, making it very uncomfortable. After some folks at the bar next to the window moved away, Me and my buddy switched over there so We could warm up. This needs to be addressed during the winter months or you're going to get a lot more complaints than just me... And a much lower rating from them. Outside of that all I can say is that maybe some more sound dampening needs to go on in order for the bar to be a little more conversationally friendly. Maybe some cloth window furnishings and a couple sound panels.
I had a great time and I'm definitely going to be taking my wife here, I showed her photos and she's...
Read moreHad an out of state vegan friend visiting Oregon. Tried this place for the first time. Food was okay. Staff were quite strange. When we arrived the bar tender shouted at us to sit down and order at the bar when ready in a bizarre tone. We went up to bar and placed two separate orders. They gave us one table number and assured us we’d both be covered under it. They brought out my friends food and snatched the table number. I started to worry that they wouldn’t be able to find me once my food was ready. An employee came out of kitchen with what looked like my order and was searching around for the table number (which they had previously snatched). My friend politely waved to the employee and they came by our table and I started to ask if it was my order but because we already had my friends shareable plates on our table they questioned whether or not the food they were bringing out actually belonged to me. And I was shocked so I offered to pull up my receipt on my phone. For how much money we spent on our two separate orders and the hassle of being made to feel like we were attempting to take someone else’s food which was rightly ours… I probably won’t go back again… my vegan friend visiting Oregon liked the food okay but ended up highly preferring some other vegan restaurants we tried… we experienced a rude vibe...
Read moreA Hidden Gem in Beaverton - June Bar & Restaurant
Stepping into June in Beaverton was an unexpectedly delightful experience. This cozy little bar and restaurant immediately catches your eye with its beautiful interior design and captivating wall art. The unique wallpaper and artistic touches make it feel like a place with a long-standing local charm—somewhere regulars gather to unwind and connect.
The bar itself is stunning, and the drinks match the aesthetic perfectly. Each cocktail is crafted with such care and presented beautifully—fresh orchids adorn some of the drinks, adding to the place’s vibrant and refreshing vibe. Not only are the drinks gorgeous, but they are absolutely delicious.
The bartenders deserve a special mention—they were attentive, skilled, and genuinely welcoming, making the experience even more enjoyable. I met friends here, and despite never having been to this area before, I was so pleasantly surprised the moment I walked in. It truly feels like eye candy in both atmosphere and presentation.
The only drawback was the temperature inside—it was quite chilly, and I found myself wishing I had kept my coat on. Despite that minor issue, the ambiance and quality of both service and drinks make June a standout spot. I’ll definitely be back, hopefully when it’s a...
