BarFly's Review of Heathman
In the Marble Bar, you'll find throngs of symphony folk, the odd visiting dignitary (from rockstars to politicians - pump the personable servers for a little polite gossip), plus the occasional punk in for a drink apres movie. The charming Tea Court doubles as a jazz lounge most nights.
Don't miss the Warhol collection in the lobby. Good place to take the parents, especially if they're buying, as it ain't cheap (although bar menu is considerably more affordable these days).
Best bargain in town: the elegantly dirt-cheap happy hour menu features a wide selection of appetizers approximately 50% off their usually tres chère prices, 2pm-close (approximately midnight), everyday.

My friend and I wanted to get a drink and some food before a concert at the Arlene Schnitzer.. Unfortunately we hyst missed happy hour. We sat right in front of our cute bartender Brian and ordered 4 drinks that night. Guava Sexy, Brian's Specialty (a lemony drink), spiced rum with diet coke and a BFK, which became my NEW favorite drink. THANK YOU BRIAN!! Brian was veryvery sweet and he helped us with our orders, pictures, and walked us to the bathroom. =) and You know what?? I cant wait to have another girl's night out!! btw, the crab cakes were so delicious!!!Heathman Bar Rocks!
Everyone should know that the Heathman Hotel and the Heathman Restaurant are two different companies. The hotel is "run" by an insignificant moron named Jeff Jobe and the restaurant and bar are run more professionally by McCormick & Schmicks.
My stay at the Heathman for my birthday was one of the most disappointing experiences I have ever had in a hotel. First, my friend called to have room service send goodies from the menu to my room as a birthday surprise and was told that she should not have waited until the last minute, that the hotel was understaffed, and no one had time to take her order.
During our stay we found that the television in the room had no sound for random and long intervals. In addition, the sink in the bathroom had a leak that puddled onto the floor. This is a 4 star hotel! When I told the manager about these issues in the room, he could not have been more dismissive and indifferent. He suggested that we go out for a while later that day so someone could come upstairs and have a "look" a the problem. He repreated several times, "Well, you did book through Expedia" as if to say I should not expect better service.
The alarm clock had remained set for a 4:00 wake up call from the previous guest and I was up at 4 figuring out how to shut off the thing.
We decided to go to another hotel and the manager refused to credit the 2nd night to my accuont, saying that, since I had booked through Expedia, I should get my money back from them. He was unbelievabley rude and never even apologized for the many things that had gone wrong during our stay.
When I called Expedia, they said the hotel was absolutely responsible for removing the charge and taking care of these issues. The Expedia representative called the Heathman and the same manager was not only rude but hung up on her!
The heathman's new cocktail menu rocks!!! Cute girls, good service, and the basil grape refresher! This is my new happy hour favorite.
I used to dump whole boxes of cereal into mixing bowls to get the made-in-Taiwan "prize". Sit your butt at one of the Heathman bar windows facing SW Broadway and there is no need to wade through a shyly ordered microbeer or Willamette Valley Pinot Noir; get a Tennesse bourbon neat with an ESB back and watch businespeople from Chicago talk loudly about accounts they landed in little ole Portland.
