Portland restaurant culture runs deep. And though it's easy to get distracted by the new restaurants opening every week, it's important to remember the city has decades-old classics that’ve made Portland food what it is today. Over the last few years, some iconic Portland-area spots that have held on through the decades — Canton Grill, Jaciva’s, Claudia’s — have shut down or gone on indefinite hiatus; however, a number of historic Portland restaurants and bars have weathered the pandemic, as they have survived the crises of the last several decades.

On this map, find some of Portland’s longest-running diners, cafes, steakhouses, watering holes, and other historic drinking and dining establishments worth checking out, including Huber’s Cafe, Portland’s oldest. The restaurants on this map have been open for at least 50 years, aka since 1973 (the passing of time is relentless, bestie). Some are only selling takeout; some are opening up for indoor dining once again. Nonetheless, they’re staying afloat, the way they have for years.

Skyline Restaurant

Copy Link

The ‘50s drive-in vibes at this classic Northwest Portland burger spot remain intact. Skyline first opened in 1935, and the restaurant still serves nostalgic milkshakes blended with pie, half-pounders on sesame buns, and chili cheese tots to eat sitting on the hood of your car or on the patio. It’s the ideal spot for a weekend lunch after a hike in Forest Park.

The Original Pancake House

Copy Link

The original Original Pancake House was born in 1953, and the family-owned business that resembles a cozy cottage has since spread its glorious, batter-built gospel worldwide. For decades, hordes of Portlanders have flocked to the Southwest Portland cafe for the giant, puffy, eggy Dutch babies baked with sauteed apples. Those looking for traditional buttermilks will find those here, as well.

Ringside Steakhouse

Copy Link

Open since 1944, this beautiful, special-occasion steakhouse, replete with fireplaces and table-side lamps, also serves onion rings that were purportedly the best James Beard ever had. It’s also hard to resist the lobster mashed potatoes. The wine cellar — only accessible by elevator and one of just two keys— holds many of the city’s oldest wines.

Bud Clark opened this pub and restaurant in 1967, going on to serve as the city’s eccentric mayor from 1985 to 1992. While Clark has passed away, the restaurant lives on, serving Reubens and pints in the Goose’s poster-lined dining room and outdoor garden. Bands will play out back in the summers, and in the winter, there might not be a cozier spot for toddies and Irish coffees.

The Leaky Roof started life as one of the city’s original food carts, way back in the 1940s. In 1947, it opened in its current Goose Hollow location and is still going strong as a neighborhood fixture. Diners will find the usual Irish pub food like Guinness stew and shepherd’s pie, plus weekend brunch, and “Portland’s largest selection of Irish Whiskey.”

Jake's Famous Crawfish

Now owned by McCormick and Schmick’s, Jake’s has become more of a traditional seafood restaurant than a typical spot for peel-and-eat mudbugs. Open since 1892, the shop popcorn-fries its crawfish, stuffs halibut with bay shrimp and Dungeness crab, and ladles a bouillabaisse abundant with shellfish and salmon. During happy hour, Jake’s offers things like crawfish etouffee and garlic steamed mussels for under $10.

Nite Hawk was built in 1931 as a place to bring in cars for an oil change and chow down on diner food while waiting. It’s since changed many hands, but ever since 1980, it’s been a proper diner serving up chicken-fried steaks and club sandwiches.

A lunch counter in the true sense of the word, the diner with classic stools and weathered linoleum, serves fare like hash browns and hotcakes, as well as a noteworthy club sandwich layered with chicken salad.  Note: Fuller’s is set to reopen in mid-November, depending on permitting.

Kelly’s opened its downtown Portland location in 1902, originally called the Olympian Saloon. Kelly’s remains a spot for burgers, sandwiches, and beer, but its main draw is likely its shows, which range from stand-up comedy to local hip hop. This is another spot that’s nice to visit for the decor alone, decked out in motorcycle memorabilia and full-blown bikes.

Walking into this 100-plus-year-old restaurant and bar in the heart of Chinatown feels like walking into Wong Kar-wai’s In the Mood for Love, all intimate booths and neon red glow. Little wallpapered nooks, a dining room flanked with murals, a back lounge frequented by decades-old regulars, and a hidden banquet-room-turned-venue for concerts and parties make it one of the more compelling spots to grab a no-fuss cocktail and an old-school Chinese American restaurant dish like egg foo young or chop suey. Plus, it’s open until midnight most nights.

Mike’s thrives on a foundation of sesame-seed-bun burgers, fried snacks ranging from pickle spears to tots, and plenty of ice cream treats like floats and malts.

Chin's Kitchen

Copy Link

Dating back to the 1940s, Chin’s Kitchen, with its hard-to-miss neon, is one of the oldest Chinese restaurants in Portland. A few years back, the kitchen got an overhaul, and the restaurant began turning out Dongbei delicacies like handmade dumplings, steaming clay pots of Chinese sauerkraut and pork, and the summery la pi, a chilled noodle salad with a rainbow of julienned vegetables. It’s the ideal spot for a meal ahead of a movie at the nearby Hollywood Theatre.
