2nd time here and it's even more fun in the daylight! Asked for a pear martini but got a regular martini with pear vodka- I'll be more clear next time! read more

Inferno Lounge - Martini with Pear vodka - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Astoria, Oregon

This is hands-down, the best martini I've ever had! We heard the people next to us order a cilantro lime martini from the bar and had to try it. It was perfect! A must try if you appreciate those flavors! When we went, it was in the evening and we got booth seating right on the ocean. It was such a fun vibe in there. The service was great. Our waiter was amazing. Could not recommend more! read more

This was a great restaurant! We were greeted warmly when we walked in and grabbed a nice high top table with a view. The service was great, and we had an order in fast. We shared a black currant hard cider and it was smooth and delicious. The garlic burger was sooo good, cooked well, with just the right amount of garlic. The flavor balance was awesome. The views from inside were great too, it was so nice to see across the river, but to not have to be out in the cold! Great location, great food, great service! read more

We were heading back to the valley and stopped in Astoria for breakfast/lunch. The view of the river is hands down gorgeous! The service was welcoming and the atmosphere & decor were nostalgic. I am always curious on cold salad options and can never go wrong with breadsticks so I tried both! Their BLT wrap was also delicious..We will be back to try more options off the menu read more

Fun night with friends while in Astoria. This place was a fantastic find! Such nice servers and bartender made our experience fun with the great suggestions for cocktails. They have food available too. They don't have dessert so I got a dessert cocktail "peanut butter chocolate" martini! Husband got a Spicy Bloody Mary that was loaded with things on top. read more

Came in for the first time on a gorgeous sunny day. We arrived at 11AM for lunch and sat by the door on the riverside. That way we had the breeze and all the windows to watch the action. Always something new on the Columbia River! Started off with a cold pilsner and chatted with our server Vanessa (5 star). We ordered a HUGE nacho plate and Thai penne with bacon. The penne was delicious and took some home with us. The nachos were just average (we live in the Southwest). The place has its own vibe, welcoming and clean. read more

Came here as a last spur of the moment option. I will now come here first when I come to Astoria. Came to Astoria on a spontaneous date and tried to go to two different places that sadly closed before I got there. I found this place on here and couldn't have been happier. Walked in to a quaint bar with aesthetically pleasing decor, and a warm welcome from the bartender. It was slightly busy inside so I sat at a side table until I could get a water-view seat. Even with it being busy I was met, served my drinks, food, and had time to enjoy the view all within a timely manner. The weather and sunset permitted a lovely view. Although I imagine a stormy night here would be so pleasing. Now.. the vending machine. I LOVE a good vending machine. Theirs.. it's the best I've seen yet, and I've seen over my fair share of quirky vending machines. I wish I had came on a day the business next to the front door entrance were open as well. I will be back. 11/10 I even saw a seal! read more

Located on Pier #11 in Astoria in Oregon, we arrived late so it was pretty dark, too bad we didn't have such a long day sightseeing, it would have been a beautiful sight looking out of the window seeing Washington state across with the view. I ordered the bowl of clam chowder which was good and came out nice and hot, it was flavorful only thing it could use more clam meat, other than that it was worth it! The nachos came and it was huge even 3 of us couldn't finish that order and it came with 3 type of colorful chips and the side condiments you can order on the side which was nice because it didn't make the chips soggy, the only thing is that you pay extra if you want guacamole or salsa or sour cream and they sell it by side large or small containers. They also had some slot machine, if you wanted to gamble. Staff were friendly and service was great! read more

Update: 12/17/25 We visited the Inferno Lounge this week, and it was amazing! Our server, Josh, was excellent. Our food was great, which included the French Dip, the Garlic Penne Pasta and a Bacon Cheeseburger. We enjoyed all of them, especially the side salads we ordered. But the drinks stole the show! We ordered a couple different drinks, and they were all fabulous, including the Peanut Butter Martini, Cherry Blosdom Kamikazi and one of their Signature Blood Marys. We'll be back. Our only complaint was the building was a little cold. By the end of our meal, we were all wearing our jackets. Which is weird, considering we were sitting in the 'Inferno' lounge. read more

We decided to celebrate Thanksgiving this year at the Inferno Lounge. It was the only local place that didn't require a reservation, so we decided to throw caution to the wind and see if we could get a table. We got there early and a line was already forming to get it. We were able to snag a table with a fantastic view. Most of the tables have great views of the Columbia River. Besides their Thanksgiving special, they were also offering regular menu items. Since it was Thanksgiving we all ordered that special. What a delicious plate, too! Moist and flavorful turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, perfectly cooked asparagus, small portion of cranberry sauce, gravy and a soft, squishy dinner roll. Great portion, too. The only thing missing were sweet potatoes. Excellent meal, great, friendly service and a table with a view! And no clean up for me! How cool is that?! Thank you, Inferno Lounge, for a delicious, and relaxing Thanksgiving. P.S. I was so excited about my food, I forgot to take a photo before digging in! The plate truly was full before I dug in! They also served us some delicious Wassail! So tasty! read more

Inferno Lounge - Partially eaten Thanksgiving meal. The plate was loaded with food before I dug in! I forgot to take a photo before eating! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Astoria, Oregon

Went there based on reviews and was not disappointed! We met friends before a performance at Liberty Theater, and it was early, so still happy hour. Decided on the happy hour shrimp tacos and they were the best I've ever had! Based on expectations of the size of happy hour items, we ordered too much food and ended up taking quite a bit home. The drinks were crazy good, too! Highly recommend, and we'll be back again. read more

Excellent service. Everyone is so friendly here! We had the inferno bloody Mary and it was exceptional. The pesto clams are so freaking good! We also really enjoyed their clam chowder. We've yet to have a bad experience here! read more

The best for after hours in Astoria. As a town Astoria shuts down pretty early. This Bar has great food, house infused spirits and a killer Bloody Mary that's garnishes count as a meal! And open later than most things in town. read more

Cute little place by the water, fun drinks and good food. The lights could be a little less oppressive, but that's an easy fix and just my opinion read more

Great view, great service, excellent clam chowder. Sat by the window overlooking the Columbia River, which was lovely. I only ordered the clam chowder, but it was rich, creamy, and really hit the spot. The service was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Definitely a nice place to stop for comfort food and a view. read more

Food and service here are fine, but as a cocktail bar, this place sucks. They have a nice range of infused spirits, but no real cocktail menu. They encourage you to be "creative", but they can't follow through on it. We've been there three times and they've screwed up the drinks every time. They can't be bothered to look up drinks they don't know, so they just make something and give it to you apparently hoping you won't notice you didn't get what you asked for. On our last trip (which will be our very last), my partner asked for a specific drink with rum, flavored whisky, and flavored vodka. They copped out and gave him a whisky and coke. The only saving grace was they didn't charge an arm and a leg for it. read more

This space is absolutely a treat for the eyes. Rippling lights like flames dance across the entire bar along with sparkling, spinning chandeliers overhead. This felt like the ultimate cool kid date night space and oozed sexiness. The service was helpful and really kind. The nachos are massive--so be forewarned. Would definitely return. read more

Stopped here on a whim when I was in Astoria for a few hours and wanted to eat somewhere by the water. This place had a very good vibe and the staff were all so nice and friendly. I loved my server who had pink hair (and I didn't get their name) but honestly 10/10 service with a smile that seemed truly kind. I got the burger with a side salad and was very happy with both. And the view of the water just made it all better. If I ever come back to Astoria, I'll be sure to dine at Inferno Lounge again. read more

My wife and I stopped into Inferno Lounge for a quick drink and light bite while heading to Cannon Beach. Free parking can be found in the surrounding area. Discover is an accepted form of payment. Narrow perimeter outdoor seating is available. Indoor décor leans towards gothic with deep and dark colors. The lower-level seating area offers a beautiful view of the water and mountains. Happy Hour is offered Sunday-Thursday from 4pm-6pm. Inferno Lounge offers a full bar along with specialty cocktails. Menu offers a variety of food choices from sandwiches to seafood ensuring there is a favorite for all. During our visit, I had a glass of St. Michelle Sauvignon Blanc for $13. My wife had a Jameson on the rocks for $8. We shared the Crab & Prawn Cocktail for $39.75: 6 jumbo prawns, Dungeness Crab, vodka cocktail sauce and a lemon wedge. Our lunch choice was visually tempting and quite delightful. Our server was friendly but extremely slow. I got the impression that Inferno Lounge was short-staffed. Overall, we both enjoyed our quick lunch stop at Inferno Lounge while road-tripping. read more

I am in Astoria on a work trip and read reviews on this place and thought it sounded like a good place. I ordered the nachos with the added cost of tri tip ($16.50 extra) which cost nearly $35. I had about 2-3 oz of meat and limited toppings. It was a plate full of chips for $35. I have never spent that much on nachos before and will never again after this experience. I was thinking it was going to be a loaded mess for that cost?! The prawns were pretty decent but I ended up not ordering a drink after I saw the nachos. $58 for one person to eat without alcoholic beverages. That's a spendy dinner that did not come close to filling me up. I do not recommend this place at all for food. read more

Stopped in here for a couple drinks and ordered a couple non-menu cocktails. A simple gin gimlet with Hendrick's gin and this place charged me $29 per drink, which is about the same as an entire bottle of Hendrick's. Their most expensive menu drink is $14. No heads up, no communication. Just gouging. Combined with slow service. Go to the Bowline. Same view, better service, honest pricing. read more

Server was great. Personable. Friendly. Took her time with us. We split the Brussels sprouts and the pork carnitas tacos. Zero complaints. Place has a 60s or 70s decor and vibe which is my jam. read more

Great views and good food. We picked this place because of the views and it was opened late. I ordered pesto pasta and a cocktail. Both were pretty good. The service was okay as well. Note: no kids are allowed here per their signage. read more

When visiting Astoria, this place is great for dinner! It's right on the water! The atmosphere is very groovy and comfortable. The employees are super nice and friendly. We had wine, quesadillas, and nachos! The combination of the cheeses they put on quesadillas makes them super special! read more

If you haven't been here you are certainly missing out. When you walk in you feel at home. It's like being in a lounge in the 60's. The view is spectacular to watch the ships come and go. The food is great and plenty of it and the drinks are magical. But the best thing is Jane our mixologist supreme. She always has a smile and will definitely take care of you. So stop in, relax and let Jane take care of you. read more

Stopped in for a little snack and drinks while waiting for our bus to back to Portland. We sat by the windows facing the river and it was just a gorgeous view of the water and the boats out there. Our drinks were good, as was the shrimp cocktail. I'd be back again to kill some time and relax by the windows. read more

Very cozy, old school spot right on the water. Great views, good cocktails, and great music too! Highly recommend, if only for the view.

What a fun and funky place with AMAZING cocktails and tasty food! So glad our hotel recommended them to us. read more

The decor is unique and fun. The views of the Columbia are stunning. The staff is simultaneously amusing and professional. Cocktails made with house infused spirits are replete with boozy yumminess and the ratified bar food menu is spot on. Wonderful place. read more

Food was pretty good. The asparagus, clam chowder, and pastrami burger were favorites, but the penne pasta with garlic cream sauce was too bland. Service was friendly and efficient. We sat at a table overlooking the water and had fun watching sea lions or harbor seals swim past. The decor was dated and a bit shabby, though, and it was chilly where we were sitting. I would return again to try their happy hour specials. read more

Really unique place, with some of the best prawn tacos! They infuse their own spirits so you can try some specialty cocktails or even a classic with a spin. We loved the cherry infused whisky in our old fashioned. read more

Josh was my bartender today, he was absolutely fabulous. Made me an amazing Peanut butter cup martini cause I needed dessert. While the menu doesn't pair well with this dessert cocktail, the chowder was on point. The chowder is always a highlight of this place. It was a slower day but the ambiance was soft and chill. Love it and will continue to come back again and again. read more

Service was quick. Came here for the nachos and it was decent sized. Melted cheese and meat as well as guacamole and sour cream. Also got a side of parmesan asparagus. The burger was ok mainly because it needed a sauce to meld the flavors together..like an aioli possibly. Ambiance was good especially since it is next to the water read more

Thoroughly enjoyed our lazy lunch here last Saturday. And by lazy, i mean we were lazy, not Inferno Lounge. It's located in a building down by the river. Definitely digging the vibe - - dark, red and black color scheme, chandeliers and fab booths that were definitely calling my name. We opted for a table by the window, where we could relax and enjoy the up close river views. They have a nice sized menu with fun cocktails and plenty of food options. Our server was friendly and helpful - - they had no problem with slight modifications for my dietary restrictions. Drinks were well mixed and refreshing. Shrimp tacos were crisp and fresh. Bathrooms past the bar. Street parking a few blocks away read more

Such a cool spot to visit while in Astoria. The BLT was world class and ordered one of their premixed cocktails that were as cool as the vibe in this throw back dockside establishment. If the walls could talk I would definitely sit and listen. Loved it! read more
