The only thing this place needs is a piano. A beautiful old room with lots of wood walls and glass. There's an oldish TV, but it's always powered down. One of the fullest bars you'll find, complete with aperitifs and freshly pulled espresso. The drunks, dates, businessmen and off-duties all get the same royal treatment from the welcoming staff. Also, I'll put their burger up against Slow Bar's much touted. If you want dive - or particularly cheap - this place is not your jam. But Cassidy's is the place for authentic bar charm.

There are so many new choices in Portland on both sides of the river and both sides of Burnside - but just because Cassidy's has been around for a long time doesn't mean that the menu or the service is stagnant. The complete opposite is true. Cassidy's has a menu that is creative and the food is satisfying and adventurous at the same time. Try the grilled romaine salad with blue cheese. Best salad I have had in a long while. The wait staff is informed and attentive. A seat at the bar or in the dining room gets you the same excellent treatment.

Yeah, I'm related, so biased. Nonetheless. Portland classic. And I only give that label to two other things, one is Roake's Hot Dogs and I'm not telling the other without you buying me a Jameson at the bar.

Cassidy's is a true Portland gem! Ask any server/bartender in the Downtown area and they will agree. Great for dinner and late night snacks and drinks. No skimpy happy hour here - full plates of food for cheap. The bartenders, servers and owner are knowledgeable and provide great service. They serve drinks the way they were always meant to be served! If you have never been you should definitely go and check it out.

Hey, been going to Cassidy's after work for a while now. The food used to be what you'd expect from a bar, i.e. fried. Guess they got a new chef this year and he's completely changed the menu. It's definately a "gastro-pub" now. And as usual the bartenders are awesome and you don't have to deal with the burbs crowd on weekends.

was just here on new year's eve...great food, tasty drinks, attentive service.

Excellent place to relax and wind down especially after a great evening or vise versa!! The happy hour food is cheap and excellent as are the drinks... very welcoming, knowledgeable bartenders!!

One of my favorite places to go. Excellent service, beautiful establishment. Great, great wine menu and an extremely knowledgable staff. Food, outstanding. Everytime

This is my favorite bar because of the mix of service industry and barflies that congregate at its tables and at the bar. The service is some of the best in Portland and there is none of the usually annoying downtown crowd.

this has become my favorite place in portland. the service is friendly and professional. the food is consistently terrific. great wine list and expert bartenders.
