Yamhill Pub
About seven blocks away from Keller, this seedy dive can be a bit intimidating. However, if you're brave enough to fare the dingy, crowded and blaring environment of the Yamhill Pub, the drink prices are insanely low. It also serves a variety of typical dive bar foods.

Kells Irish Restaurant & Pub
A little farther away from the auditorium than some of the other pubs, Kells is worth a short bus or cab ride. With live Irish music seven nights a week, a downstair's cigar room and lively atmosphere, Kells is a great place to kick back and have a drink. The restaurant portion serves an array of Irish meat, seafood and pasta dishes, and both the restaurant and pub have a large selection of Irish draught beers and various other bottled beers. The pub serves appetizers and appetizer-sized dishes.

McMenamins Ringlers Pub
This large pub, filled with pool tables, is located on the first floor of Portland's famous Crystal Ballroom. With a giant, tiled bar and wooden-beamed ceiling, you wouldn't be able to tell that McMenamins Ringlers was once an automotive repair garage. It offers the usual selection of McMenamins beers, as well as over 100 different whiskeys. Food offerings are almost identical to the McMenamins Market Street Pub.

McMenamins Ringlers Annex
This triangular pub is located in the middle of a unique fork-in-the-road, just blocks from the main Ringlers Pub.

The annex has two full bars (ground floor and basement), stocked with various liquors and McMenamins ales. Only appetizer and appetizer-sized dishes, like quesadillas, salads and paninis are available.
