Tapphoria Taphouse & Bottle Shop — Restaurant in Tigard

Walk into Tapphoria and there’s a good chance you'll feel like you’ve entered a sitcom. No, seriously.

The ambiance? Picture this: If "Cheers" had a love child with "Architectural Digest", it'd be Tapphoria. This place boasts an exquisite blend of comforting nostalgia and drop-dead-gorgeous décor.

With 28 taps of frothy goodness (and a sprinkling of seltzer for when you're pretending to be 'healthy'), you're always a sip away from declaring, "This is my new favorite!" And by your third drink, you'll probably be convinced that the bartender secretly moonlights as a beer wizard.

Oh, and a heads up – the regulars? They’re like a close-knit family with a few extra lovable black sheep. Don’t be surprised if, by the end of the night, you’re sharing mildly embarrassing stories and contemplating getting matching tattoos.

So, if you're looking for a spot where your beer glass is always half full (and the other half is probably on your friend's shirt), Tapphoria is the place to be. Just remember to keep it just this side of lewd - after all, we're all...

My partner and I planned exactly what we were going to eat and we picked this place because she absolutely loves beer. We walked in and it turned out to be super tiny and the person who was running it all but ran us out. Using the open arm shooing and everything. I didn’t have my ID and it was 15 min minutes before they had to card and the guy was pretty upset about it all.

The worst part was as soon as we sat down he yelled across the bar, “we don’t really have food. we don’t really have a kitchen at all. we don’t make anything. what you see on the menu is all you’re gonna get.”

it was overall unwelcoming, and we WERE going to get stuff on that menu.

We left almost immediately. One of the worst “restaurant” - or even bar - experiences...

Nice place. Especially if your a beer nerd. They do manage to pull off beer nerd without transcending into beer snob. I find that tiresome but didn't see any of that here, at least during my two visits. The decor is drab and does little to detract from the fact that your in a strip mall, other than the multi-screen real time keg monitor. This is the first time I've seen one of these and really puts the question of nerdiness to rest. Still the place is full regulars who clearly love the scene and the ownership. What better recommendation is there, after all sometimes you want to go where everyone...
