Oregon City:
There is a newer speakeasy located beneath Hive Social. It is located in the basement of the building that used to house Frederick's hardware store. To find it you will have to ask around, and look for clues. This location captures the feeling of a modern speakeasy.
Bend:
Broom Closet - McMenamins Old St. Francis School:
Address: 700 NW Bond Street, Bend, OR 97703
While part of a larger establishment, this hidden bar within the McMenamins Old St. Francis School offers a distinct speakeasy feel.
When you see a door marked Broom Closet we encourage you to open it! Even then, glancing at the brooms may give you pause, but we give you permission to investigate. What you discover behind the panels may entail fresh scones or fresh cocktails.
Yet this space reopens to the public in the afternoons with a spirited bit of offerings: classic cocktails, with an emphasis on a greater selection of whiskey, scotch and Port. A menu of small bites is available as well.
As you partake in the offerings and wonder just where you are, enjoy the classic blues music playing. Note the five-panel painting, our artist Andy Eccleshall's tribute to the late Jim Boyer, who was a longtime Portland musician and member of a McMenamins' favorite, the Freak Mountain Ramblers. Boyer is depicted in the center, and his lyrics are woven through the panels, to live on.
