Rogue Pearl Public House

My running buddies and I are signed up for the Rogue and back running challenges. After our run, we returned to Rogue Pearl for some hydration and eats.

Their parklet is nicely built offering steady protection against cars and their umbrellas are the adjustable kind so they can be adjusted to accommodate shade based on where the sun is. Be sure to let the Rogue staff do the adjusting of the umbrellas!! Our server Colleen was quick to make the necessary adjustments.

We had marionberry cider and Yellow Snow Pilsner and tater tot's to start. The tots are perfect!!! The cider and Pilsner were soooooo refreshing!

I had the cheese curd burger. It was delicious and it is LOT of food!! The fried cheese curds on the burger add a delicious crunch. The fries are a tasty side.

The food and drinks were the perfect way to reward ourselves after our hot run.

The best part of our experience was our server Colleen!! She is quick witted and incredibly efficient.

We are looking forward to going back next week after our run to Pittock mansion!

5* for the beer but 2* for the food

This is a really great spot to grab one of the many wonderful beers Rogue brews. Their menu also contains a lot of unique combinations of beer which you normally wouldn't find anywhere else.

Unfortunately, the food is below average barfood, at best. The most recent trip to this location I ordered the Buffalo chicken sliders. Unfortunately, it seemed that the batch I got did not appear to be cooked all the way through. I only finished eating one of them, actually.

This is a great place to go if you just want to grab a beer and maybe some casual appetizers. I would not recommend it if you are looking for a full meal.

When visiting a state with over 280 breweries, one must try as many local ales as possible. While hanging out in Portland, we stopped in for dinner and more ales. This Rogue location is Conveniently located in the hip pearl district. The restaurant wasn't too busy the evening we visited and we quickly seated and greeted. We ordered and enjoyed:
Four play pizza
Rogue lettuce wraps
Flights of beer

The food and beer were great! We loved the four play pizza as there were four different types of pizzas within one pie! The ales were also memorable and a visit here will not disappoint you! Mahalo Rougue for an excellent evening !

Rogue is one of the many reasons why I love Portland -- it's such a great place for a drink!

The inside is spacious and well-decorated. I sat on the bar side, not the restaurant. The wall of beer options can be overwhelming, so ask for a sample or a suggestion if you need one. I'd say beer flights are the way to go. Beers are about $6 a glass, which is totally not bad. I think beer flights were just under $10.

I had the Hazelutely Choctabulous and the Hazelnut Brown Nectar. Both were quite delicious and savory. I also tried the Nitro Oatmeal-something, and I was decidedly not a fan.

They have their merch for sale, which is pretty cool. Nice to see a company with a solid brand. I didn't get a chance to look around last time, but I'll have to check it out in the future.

Service was great. I don't remember his name, but he was chatty and knowledgeable and much appreciated.

There's food, but I didn't want food. Typical bar food, from what I remember.

I'll be back!

Awesome tap room. Tons of beers to choose from. The staff and bartenders were super nice and offerred us some samples.

Im a big fan of stouts and porters and they had a good selection. For those who like lighter beers and ipas, this is also a good spot to check out.

Definitely would come back in the future.

We were in the area and decided to get some beers. We got the beer flight so we got to taste a variety of the beers. We tried the yellow snow pilsner, canter current, pinch imperial hose, fruit salad cider. We also got a side of dirty sweet potato fries.

The beers were alright. I liked the yellow snow and pinch imperial the most. The fruit salad cider was very sour and kind of tasted like 4lokos. The sweet potato fries were good! They were crispy enough but the potatoes weren't very sweet. The bartender was hard to get attention of even though he was right there.

It wasn't very busy and they only had 1 bartender and 1 waiter. We were seated at the bar so only got to talk to the bartender.

It was a busy day everywhere but we came in at the tail of a rush. Really fun vibe inside and out on the streets here. We did the share plate thing that when placed together looked like a party...it was. Tasty bites with a great amount of different dipping sauces. Sliders, curd, veggies...and I don't know, must have been the beers. The beer here stands on its own.

Dyamo tap list! Convivial vibe in new pub layout! Great service (you rock Ana)! Hold off on the grass feb burger!

The brew tap list is dynamite and it's a cool spot to drink it up in the newly renovated pub or diner. It's way more spacious and open with that trendy contemporary industrial look. Catch my drift?

Now to the burger. It is excellent quality from Bartel Farms where the cattle lead a happy life style grazing on grass only --- no grains, right Foodies! But the burger is rolled thin as a pancake and cooked well done. Basically over cooked. Perhaps, there is an undercooking concern, but with grass fed there is 10x's less issues than beef provided in the standard industrial food (CAFO) chain where cattle do not roam, live in confinement, fattened on grain and shot up with antibiotics --- yuck at the thought of that.

Dear Rogue,

I'll be back for beer, but no grass fed burger for now. I suggest make it an 8 OZ pattty, juicy thick, cook medium (try one at Dick's Kitchen on 21st --- and you will have a winner winner winner grass fed burger). Charge a few dollars more for a delish burger. There are few concerns undercooking grass fed beef as long as the kitchen staff is managing cross contamination prep with meats with other foods. Matter of fact, medium to rare is better for grass fed and well done is a bummer!

Being on a roadtrip from SoCal to Portland and back, this was a great ending to our time in Oregon. We visited on 7/16/2020. We had the Reuben Fries, Deviled Eggs, Hawaiian Seoul Burger, and the Beyond Burger. Everyone was pleased with their orders.
Anne was our server and she was awesome! She seemed to be the only one taking orders/bussing tables inside and out at the time we got there, but she was quick and effecient and very friendly. The drink menu is a nice size, so she let us know we could taste anything that we weren´t sure about. She also gave us recommendations on drinks and what to do in the city if we were staying any longer.
There are other breweries around, but I´m sure this place is poppin when it´s fully open.

Going Rogue in the Pearl is easy-peasy thanks to 40-plus taps of Rogue Ales and Lagers and a menu featuring CHEESE CURDS.

Drink beer.
Eat cheese.
Go rogue.

Sure, the remodeled Pearl Public House of Rogue Ales has been around for awhile ... and that's a good thing ... because it's serving some of the best Oregon beers available from some of the happiest servers in the state. Of course, I'd be happy too if I could sip Imperial IPAs at work *wink-wink*...

If you can only try one beer at Rogue Pearl Public House, leave and come back when you can drink like a rogue.

When you finally do make it to Rogue, plan to drink (and uber your way home). Start with a Dead Guy Ale, their world-famous Maibock delivering 6.8% abv & 40 ibu or a New England IPA called Wombatsquatch with 6.4% abv & 41 ibu ... or, simply get whatever cider, sour, or brew will get you feeling rogueish.

Then, it's time for the Double IPA (aka Imperial IPA) tandem that makes Rogue one of my liver's favorite breweries: Wrath of Dorado Imperial IPA at 9.8% abv & 82 ibu or Hop Greed Imperial IPA at 10.2% abv & 60 ibu. Both taste like you shouldn't be driving and will make you feel like a real rogue for at least one double-dealing night.
