Friends laughing and raising cocktails together at a lively bar

Welcome to Little Bitter Bar

Nestled in Portland's Central Eastside, inside Hotel Grand Stark, Little Bitter Bar is a neighborhood gathering place inspired by the art of the aperitivo. Equal parts cocktail bar, café, and living room, it's a space for long conversations, spontaneous meetups, and lingering over one more round.

Our menu celebrates bright spritzes, inventive cocktails, thoughtful wines, local beer, and shareable bites designed for grazing. Whether you're joining us for happy hour, a casual date night, Vinyl Night with friends, or a late-evening nightcap, you'll find a warm atmosphere, good music, and plenty of reasons to stay awhile.

Bitters, Bites, & Good Nights. Welcome to your neighborhood aperitivo bar.

Come for the bitters.

Stay for the company.

We believe a great neighborhood bar should feel welcoming to everyone, including four-legged friends. Dogs are always welcome, making Little Bitter Bar the perfect stop after a walk through the neighborhood, a weekend outing, or an afternoon spent exploring Portland.

Whether you're joining us for happy hour, Vinyl Night, a casual date night, or simply a quick spritz that turns into a second, Little Bitter Bar is a place to settle in, connect, and stay awhile.
