Double Barrel Tavern

I've seen Double Barrel go through the usual changes over the years - a new menu here, a coat of paint there, some nips and tucks, etc - but it's always remained true to its dive-bar self, so I always find myself returning to a corner seat at the bar. No pretensions, a big old circular bar, cheap beers and strong drinks, terrible house wine, and of course, a trashy bathroom complete with graffiti and a condom vending machine. The bartenders can either be surly or merely tolerant, but that's cause they're always busy - and I'd expect no less from this joint. There are booths if ya want privacy and a very cool library-like side room that feels a bit more upscale, and even a row of vintage pinball machines on the back wall, but at the end of the day Double Barrel always gives me that somewhat gritty, slouching shot of Portland that's harder and harder to find these days.

Used to be a regular.Never again.As a person of color, I find it odd that I was the only one pulled out of line for an ID check.Granted, I didn't have my ID on me, so it's understandable that I had to leave.My question is, why did they not ID the other 5 people in front of me in line?Also, did the bartender really need to call me a f***ing idiot to her fellow bartenders?

Ordered:-Buffalo Cauliflower-Onion Rings-Buffalo Wings with Marionberry sauce-Gochu Peno BurgerPro:-Onion rings were flaky and crisp!-Buffalo cauliflower was the group's favorite & the buffalo sauce was a good balance of tangy and spicy.-The wings had a slight amount of batter on them which made them crunchy to eat. The Marionberry sauce was sweet and good! We'd like to try the spicier sauces next time.-Employees were really friendly and there are happy hour prices starting when they open at 2pm!Con:-The cauliflower would be easier to eat if it were cut into bite sized portions! -Burger was great with grilled veggies in it, but would have been enhanced with fresh vegetables as well! We found it a bit greasy and heavy otherwise.

HH from 2-6 on weekdays, all day Sunday, with daily specials. Their fries are curled wedge fries and are DELICIOUS! Good selection of craft beers, would come back.They also have 2 dart boards and I believe a shuffle board table.

Great bartenders love the chill atmosphere. We always get the wings. My fave is the classic spicy and their fried cauliflower is also another favorite. Their burgers are also a go to for me

Double Barrel slaps so hard. First, the food is incredible. Yummy, comes out fast and hot, and great selection of burgers. My go-tos are Gochupeno and the Western Burger, always with tots. Second, the staff are universally really friendly and manage to hold it down despite it being a pretty large and busy spot. Adam is one of the nicest dudes I've met and Chazz, the dude managing this place is from Texas and brings awesome country playlists featuring the best of indie country, books vinyl djs, including great country djs (DJ Roughrider and DJ Stone Bunny), they've even started bringing in live shows on occasion. Finally, while I usually get a six shooter (rainier and a shot of whiskey), the cocktails I've tried are delish. I go in probably every other week and always have a good time. Keep it up y'all! P.s. Not sure what the deal is with people with virtually no reviews on here throwing shade, don't y'all have better things to do with your time? Trust someone who consistently reviews spots and visits this place regularly, Double Barrel is a gem.

Disgusting. The only double barrel they had was of salt on my burger. I stopped eating after 2 bites. Cross this of your restaurant list.

This is your typical dive bar! I don't say that in a bad way. They actually have a great drink selection. I am a huge sour beer fan and they had a breakside sour in tap! I've also had a Manhattan here and it was deliciously strong.You also can't go wrong with video poker and shuffle board. They do have a patio which is nice if you want to be outside. There is plenty of seating inside too.Staff has always been friendly and quick with orders!

I just got off the phone with my credit card company. I came in last Friday night, closed out and tipped in cash. Found out today that a bartender added a tip to my credit receipt. I will never be going there again

I love this bar, I love the pimento cheeseburger and the patio rocks. I just wish that cowboy bartender didn't pretend I was lucky to get a drink from him. Shout out to Adam, though. He's such a sweetheart. Dont let the pornstache fool you.​
