Things are not what they seem and don't judge a book by its cover is the closest I can describe this bar. I believe this bar purposely decorated the inside to prevent people from being able to describe it to others.

I'm going to give 3 starts because the place is actually pretty coolButWaitress didn't give me my change back for a water. I already gave a tip for the alcoholic drink.She literally ignored me.And she was on her phone the whole time!!!!

This is one of the funkiest bars I've ever stepped into.Went to the 80's night. The DJ didn't do a great job sticking with the 80's, really missed a huge number of British New Wave classics, but it was still great fun.

An experience like no other. A huge nightclub with the weirdest decorations ever. They have multiple dance floors and typically do a 80s theme night. So much dancing! They do have a cover typically $5 and the bar is cash only so be prepared. The drinks are strong and a little pricey. Overall a great time if you want to dance!

This landmark bar & club is not to be missed! Visit on Fridays, wear your retro outfits, and dance to all your favorite 80's music on the lighted dance floor. So fun here!Parking: Very tight parking, bring a small car, ride with friends, or get an Uber. Kindof a sketchy area.

The way they treat their customers…. I am a tourist who is celebrating his birth with his local friends—the attitude towards the customer is unexcaptable. I already told my local friend how the place acted and how was the experience. If I came Portland again, I will try and not even think about this place. Disaster...

Bubbas is a GREAT place for girls night, especially on Friday, 80's night! Too bad it's not free for those who dress up in 80's anymore ... should be on the website so people know before they get there to have cash for the cover and that it's cash only for the

Expensive, they leave no room for their bartenders to make tips. 14$ for 2 regular twisted teas is OUTRAGEOUS

What a mind trip. I've never been so confused in my life. Exploring Portland with a bunch of my girlfriends for a weekend, and we had to stop in and check out the "thrift store, meets club" vibe place that people talk about. It smells like an old dungeon, but the dance floor was packed with so many different aged people it was so nice to see. The dance floor is super weird as well. So many were tripping over the uneven tiles .The bar is cash only, and there was a 5$ cover charge.Overall, it was an experience. Different. Definitely could use some good cleaning and renovations . But I definitely still had fun dancing.
Fun atmosphere, good music, and entertaining patrons.

As delightful of a disaster of an experience as the other reviewers led me to believe it would be. Traveling from the west coast and looking for a place to dance, we found this place. The atmosphere was beautifully bizarre, the music was eclectic (we went on a Saturday night, 90s to now), the service was fast and friendly and the crowd was a mix for sure.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for sure - I hope to go back next weekend before we head home!!
