Description

The bar Angel Face operates on Northeast 28th Avenue, near the intersection with East Burnside Street, in the northeast Portland part of the Kerns neighborhood.[3] Eater Portland has described Angels Face as "a pretty little European bar with handpainted flowers on the walls, oysters on the half shell, and famously, cocktails ordered on a case by case basis, sans list".[4] Alexander Frane of Condé Nast Traveler wrote, "With a horseshoe-shaped marble bar and faded pink wallpaper, this cocktail den feels like something out of an Impressionist painting."[5]

Portland Monthly has called Angel Face a "Paris-meets-Portland cocktail bar jewel".[6] Angel Face has a covered and heated patio.[7] Michael Russell of The Oregonian described the clientele as "artists, musicians, boutique owners, chefs and a writer grabbing a drink before a second-run movie at Laurelhurst Theater".[8] The menu has included a pickle plate, Castelvetrano olives, lamb stew, steak frites.[9] The bar has also served food from neighboring restaurant Navarre.[10]

History

Angel Face opened in March 2016.[11]
