BarFly » Kid Friendly Bars in Portland

AKA kid friendly, child safe, minors allowed, unfortunately
When it comes to bars, children should neither be seen nor heard nor be anywhere near tainting the patrons with their sticky little cheetoh dust hands.
Despite our childphobia, we have managed to index the places that can accommodate you and your crotchfruit. The rest of us can use this list as a guide of places to stay far, far away from.
