Bummer, the beer is great, but service is atrocious! Definitely never coming here again.Added: There are medical exceptions as per the Americans with Disabilities Acts. Even airlines honor medical exemptions. I had a card that I tried to show, but you werent interested. Thats fine. Just not coming back. Ill just go to Johns Market, they have a much better selection there anyway.

Great tap house and bottle shop. Selection of beers was very well spread out between genre and breweries. A food cart is near serving burgers and fries 🍟. The folk serving were great. Thanks for sharing good beer. Parking is limited.

Awesome spot. Appreciate that they put lagers in correct glassware. Great prices on draft, super convenient online ordering (peruse their selections on your phone and get exactly what you want). Dog friendly. Been coming here for a while.

Wonderful before covid and theyve really helped shape the place after. Plenty of spacious outdoor seating and great tabs.

So sad to have to give this place 1 star. Descent selection of beers with terribly rude service. If you come here I hope youre ready to get yelled at. Recommend going just about anywhere else. These are not fun people to deal with.

My boss gave me a gift card for this place, but I cannot seem to redeem it anywhere.Update: Card is working now!Update2: Order would normally be delayed because I placed it after 11AM. The issue I have here is that I wouldnt have had this problem if not for the gift card issue. So thats upsetting.Ive emailed yall about the situation and I appreciate the staffs flexibility to still do the delivery today. But this was a REALLY bad experience overall and the owners should double check their Square stuff because its not working like it should.Update3:Delivery Received - and early to boot!

We were here to get a sure shot burger and grab a few beers to take home. I had my baby with me while I ordered our burgers and wanted to tell my husband what beer I wanted -Immediately Kicked off the premise by the bartender. Apparently I could not even stand outside near the burger joint under the awning to stay out of the rain or be in the area while my hubby bought beer togo. It was the tone and the destain he had for us that made it all the more terrible. Hate when local places have to be checked off our list

Tonight was my first visit. The selection of both draft beer and bottled beer was excellent. The service was great and they had a lot of outdoor seating. There is a food cart outside, so when you NEED fries you can get them.

The staff for professional and followed COVID protocols perfectly. The outside tent was not fully inclosed to proved proper ventilation. Had to ask to use the restrooms since no inside seating is allowed but I didnt mind one bit. Great drinks too! The lady was very helpful for someone who isnt fond of beer!

This spot has an amazing beer, wine and cider collection. The outdoor seating area is really nice and laid back - and dog friendly! Great for either stopping in to grab some drinks to go or hanging out and tasting for hours.

Uptown Market is a great place to pick-up a unique beverage. They have a large selection of beer, cider, and wine. As a beer enthusiast, browsing the selection here is always a fun experience.More recently, with COVID-19 going on, Uptown Market has moved online. I think the response of Uptown Market was impressive with being able to purchase beer online, and either have it delivered or picked-up in store. I opted to have my drinks delivered, which was a smooth experience.I am thrilled that Uptown Market is here to serve the community and help keep spirits high.

Review №21

This guy should not be open during the Covid-19 pandemic. My first time visit to this bottle shop was very uncomfortable. Solely due to the obvious paranoia of the man filling orders. He was appalled that I didn’t have a online order. Walking up to his counter at the front doors and ordering 6 beers off a list posted on the door would have been fine by me. However because I felt so dirty for being 20 feet to close to him, he suggested that I use my phone and order online.Just stay closed until the media tells you that you can be safe.

Only went a few times. Beer selection is fair, not amazing like so many people think. Small place. Good rotating tap selection. A few of their beers and the rest are guest taps.First few trips were different younger men working there. Service was fine, provided samples, answered questions, helped customers, my glass was never empty long.I went in recently and a younger lady wearing a Green Bay Packers jersey was working. At first she was attentive, gave samples, poured me one beer, and then pretty much ignored me.Multiple waves of customers came in, she talked to them, poured samples, sold beer, never even look at me again. I didnt exist. There was nobody else at the bar except myself.By now my temperature was rising. I shouldnt have to ask for help when sitting at the bar. She had no problem serving many other people driving up and walking in.After about 20 minutes I gave up. By now both my empty water and beer glasses were pushed forward. She finally asked if I wanted another beer. How about not making me wait? There were breaks in customers coming in and she could have helped me. I paid the tab and left.I wrote a complaint to the owners a few weeks ago. No reply.Will not return.

So many great choices at this local brewery. 9 house made taps and 26 guest taps. And if you cant find what you want, choose from aisles of bottles and cans!

Review №25

I live a few blocks away from this place and it’s really gone down hill lately. They turn the patio lights and music off an hour before the place closes. The bartender turned the open sign off an hour as well. It’s like they only want a very small group of people to come in. I’ve been coming for years and I’ve started to come less because it’s going downhill fast. You can say it’s to be respectful of the neighbors but I spend a lot of time across the street and at the peak of noise it cannot be heard.

The selection is super great, unlike what some of the reviewers here think :p So many pretty beers to choose from! The space was super hip and clean. Human working the counter was really nice as well. I live in Portland but would journey down here for the cool vibes.

Review №27

Uptown Market might be the best place to try and buy beer in Portland. I loved this location, their selection, staff and in house beers before. But since the remodel its even better. A clear side for browsing and buying bottled (or canned!!! beer), and then a pub side with seating, enough (but not overwhelming number of) tvs and a great ambiance. And on top of all of that, there is great food to be had from the semi permanent food cart outside.Its a great place to stop and pick up a six pack, or to sit down and enjoy an afternoon of delicious beers inside or on the patio.Very highly recommended.

This place recently went through a remodel and re-opened their food cart, and the food absolutely ROCKS! Noteworthy: the scotch egg and chicken sliders. I love the pimento cheese sammies, too. They also offer an outstanding selection of beers, both on tap and in bottle. I like that they have different brewers rotate through (tap takeover Thursdays) and always seem to have some fun events going on during the week. Friendly staff,too. Oh, and theyre DOG FRIENDLY!

Great to have a growler fill station/bottle shop in the SW area. Weve been going here since they only had a few taps on and weve kept going back. The service is always friendly and attentive (even if theres a line). I also love that they are open early (10am) to stop in for a growler before heading to a game or out of town. Its awesome to see them continue to expand their taps (up to 20 now, right?), host brewery tastings, and start featuring their own brews!

We love Uptown Market. This has become the local neighborhood pub. Always great beer on tap, including their own (now that they are also a brewery). As well as good friends and company to enjoy a beer with.I highly recommend stopping by, tasting what is on tap, and trying a pint.

Review №36

The guys who own this place are great. OK selection of bottles, a few beers on tap, and laid back place to drink. I moved out of town before they started brewing their own beers so I cant speak to any of that, but my husband and I liked getting a mystery box of bottles. We always got to try new beers and talk with the guys about them later.

The staff is nice and helpful when trying to find a beer. They have a huge selection of beers and some wines to pick from. They also fill growlers to go, if you are in a hurry. If you have the time you can sit down have a pint. There is usually a food truck parked out front in case you get hungry. Overall a fun place to chill.

I only know uptown market through Trivia night which my friends brought me to, and now I go almost every week.This is a fantastic place. The beer selection is amazing. They have 30 plus beers on tap, and 100s more in their coolers categorized by style (IPA, ales, lagers, European, bitter beer, cider, etc, all these beers actually have normal market prices and only a $1 corkage fee if you choose to drink in house. They also have kegs available and kambucha, or so Ive heard.Back to trivia, which I just finished for the evening (and am on safe transportation home from), the hostess is charming yet firm. Her questions span many subjects and generations, so bring your a-game and a diverse a-team. Trivia here is so much fun!My friends always get BBQ. The few bites Ive had were very satisfying.As a brewery they produce solid beers that will compete with any Portland brewery. I recommend going to Uptown Market and going deep, just remember to take uber or a bus. Lucky for me, my apartment had a direct bus line.Cheers,Nate

Review №57

I have been there a couple of times and very pleased with the results. Both times the staff has been knowledgeable and articulate when talking about what they have on tap and the selection is easily as good as what I would find if I went to Belmont Station or MainBrew. On my most recent visit, the keg I wanted to fill my growler from was tapped out, so they gave me a full growler of something else instead and let me keep the half-full growler as a bonus. My only gripe is that there is nowhere to lock up my bike when I ride out there. Would it kill you guys to put in a bike rack?

Review №60

So, this is kind of like Johns Market encapsulated in a smaller space, sporting a brewery instead of a deli. Lots of wine and beer choices - and then their own brews on tap along with some guest brews. Super friendly owner/brewer and a good spot to just get some friends together and do happy hour. They have guest appearances/tasting events and I think they have just done a great job with something that may have been a convenience store wedged between Burgerville at Scholls & Allen and maybe a body shop??? or car repair of some kind. Go there, you wont be disappointed. It only gets four stars through not fault of its own...the ambiance might suffer a bit from being where it is.

A great spot to grab a pint, a growler fill, or a six pack of whatever beers your heart desires. Staff is versed and ready to help, trivia on Tuesdays, homebrew stuff, it really is a little gem of a bottle shop. Snobby help and all... :-) . Seriously theyre the opposite of snobby, down to earth nice guys who love beer. Go Check Em OUT!

Most of the beers you can find cheaper at the grocery store. Also, if you buy a beer out of a cooler, they will charge you an extra dollar to open it. They called it a corkage fee. So many better places around

Its a weird bar, growler fill-up, beer bottle store. I walked in and the waitress and the cashier were gossiping about something. I was ignored. Not even a hello. I was just looking for a 6-pack of Weinstephaner, but all they had was the big bottles(overpriced). I think New Seasons Market has a better selection.

Review №91

Awesome selection of delicious beers (in a bottle, or straight out of the tap & into a glass), wines, homebrew supplies and other goodies - and every employee Ive encountered is a scholar and a gentleperson. Theyve even expanded to brewer status, followed by opening a 2nd location in Lake O.! Ive been coming to this place off and on since just after it opened (still have my brewery founders t-shirt & steel growler!), and theyve never been anything but the coolest of folks to me. I try to recommend this location any chance I get. •••I dont always buy beer anymore, but when I do, I buy it from Uptown.•••

OK, I see other people give UM good reviews- Every time Ive been here though, I swear its my last time- too frustrating!Great beer selection, yes.Service? Non existent.Every time I come in, mostly for homebrew needs, the guys are talking amongst themselves, and I ALWAYS have to stand and wait for them to even notice or acknowledge my presence. These guys act like theyre doing you a huge favor to even be there-serious attitudes.The last few times Ive been in, they have been out of some of the most basic brewing items Ive needed: bottles, carbonation tabs, etc. Really close to my home, but Im done. Ill go a bit further to Above the Rest Homebrewing - super nice, well stocked store, and always willing to answer questions. Sorry Uptown, you had your chance numerous times and have lost me as a customer!

Homebrew supplies selection is severely lacking. Ive been a couple of times and been largely ignored by staff both times. If theres a game on, forget about being helped unless you get right in someones face. Youll find a larger bottle selection at ABV and much much larger homebrew supplies selection at Mainbrew or Brew Brothers.
