White Oak is one of the Portland area's best taphouses. From the moment you walk into the taphouse you are greeted with a unique atmosphere. The entire taphouse is decorated and furnished using wood from the same white oak tree. This design choice looks amazing and makes the interior of the taphouse feel comfortable and welcoming. There is a diverse list of beers on tap including lagers, ciders, IPAs, stouts, and more. White Oak tries to replace spent taps with similar types of beer so there's always something on tap for all tastes and preferences. The best part, by far, is the amazing customer service that you'll receive while visiting here. All of White Oak's employees are wonderful, kind people who provide an excellent customer experience. This taphouse is dog friendly, and they even have treats for your pup behind the bar if you ask for them. They also have snacks like popcorn and jerky that you can purchase, or you can bring your own food to eat while you drink. A few more pros of White Oak include: board games, clean bathrooms, and outdoor seating with heaters. If you're looking for an amazing taphouse in the Portland area, you will find one here...
ย ย ย Read moreI went here when they first open and tried to order a cider with a co-worker. One of the co-owners was working the bar, when I handed him my I'd he said "you're not 21 I can't give you anything to drink" very loudly infront of the rest of the guest, so loudly that others at the bar chimed in on the conversation. I thought he was joking because I was 23 at the time, my id was not expired, in fact it's the same I'd I currently have and I've been able to use it everywhere else. I didn't press the matter, he ownes the place and I'm not the type to argue. It's obviously their right to deny me service, just the whole experience made me cry because it was so embarrassing. I wanted to like this place because I work in the plaza and live across the street, but I'd rather go anywhere else...
ย ย ย Read moreCute little tap house..nicely located in the Murrayhill shopping center..plenty of tap beers to choose from. They don't serve food, but bar snacks. I'm giving it a 3 star because the bartender wasn't very engaged and appeared to not be interested in being there. The beer that I received had things floating in it which was a turn-off. When I asked about it, I felt as the bartender didn't really care and said the particles were from the keg...I have ordered PLENTY of tap beers and not had things floating in it. It would have been ok if he was more understanding of my concern, but felt like I put him out just asking...
