Everything was good. The pretzel is amazing with the beer cheese. Chicken sandwich was probably one of the best.

To expensive for what it is. Also the biggest problem for me is they charge for everything like to go boxes when ordering out.

We visited a neighborhood restaurant. It has side street parking. They have outdoor seating and inside is inviting and warm atmosphere. We were quickly greeted and was sat down and water was brought to our table. They have an array of food choices to choose from and their daily specials on the blackboard. They have a lot of beer on taps. Plenty of seating at the bar. It is well lit for restaurant and bar serving food. Booths and tables seating arrangements. Service was quick and prompt. I ordered a Pub Burger and it was so humongous. The rustic bun was delicious. My medium rare burger was perfect. I could see the freshly made ingredients too. The lettuce and tomato and red onion was well received. My friend ordered a spinach and beet salad with grilled chicken. The plate was big enough to share. The grilled chicken was a good portion size and it was delicious. The chicken was delicious and juicy. This is a fun place to enjoy and eat. Service was very attentive. They made sure we were taken care of during the meal. read more

Some of my favorite wings! Love the barnyard fries as well! Great outside seating ambiance and the service is always great!

We had a nice Saturday afternoon stop here with amazing food a decent beer selection of 20 beers on tap and good friendly attentive service. Breakfast was still being served at 1 pm which was amazing. We have only come here four or five times but the food and service has been consistently good each time . read more

Love the menu here at NEPO 42! So many yummy items to choose from it makes you want to return to try them all. Our dog, Nova, loves the large outdoor patio seating to meet other pups and NEPO 42 provides water bowls for furry friends! Back to the food a must try are the zucchini cakes... like veggie crab cakes, but better. Absolutely delicious with a dill and lemon aioli. I had the chicken salad sandwich that was actually a yellow curry chicken salad with grapes and raisins, oh it was so light, fresh and freaking good! And their fries!! Crispy, perfect fries, pillow soft in the center with ranch to dip! Heaven! Husband had the Salmon dish and he loved it, and daughter had the Cuban that was huge! We are definitely going to be returning to go through the rest of the menu! read more

My experience tonight was honestly very disappointing. The woman behind the bar had negative energy from the start and the service reflected that. She took our menus without asking if we wanted anything else, which felt rushed and dismissive. We ordered cocktails and later noticed they had a drink with CBD and THC in it. When we tried to order one at the bar, she came to our table to tell us she couldn't serve it to us because we had already had a cocktail. That seemed extremely odd, especially since there was no explanation of that policy beforehand. I asked another bartender about it, and he said he would have ordered one for us and even agreed it was strange. That confirmed for me that the issue didn't seem to be policy, but the way she handled the situation. Based on the attitude and the inconsistent service we experienced, management seriously needs to address this. Staff representing a business should be welcoming and consistent, and unfortunately that was not the case tonight. If this is the level of service being provided, it's something ownership should take seriously. read more

Solid place wonderful salads great tap list and the service is wonderful! Try homemade pickle fries chips holy cow! Perfect combo of bar and diner .. kids always welcome we love this place could not recommend more! Wings fries everything is stellar definitely a gem read more

This place is quintessential Portland, in that it's so casual, but elevated with fresh local ingredients. It seems like a great neighborhood spot for lunch, dinner or drinks with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I visited on a Friday afternoon with colleagues for lunch and I was really surprised by the menu. There are so many good options here from sandwiches to bowls, to burgers to mac & cheese and of course the bar appetizer classics like fries, wings and pretzels. I opted for the salmon entree which came with brown rice and broccoli (tried to be healthy on this particular day) and it was fantastic. My colleagues got the harvest bowl (made vegan), Mac & Cheese and the burger with bacon. There really is something for everyone here so it's great to go with a group but also great for dining solo. Service was outstanding. Our serve handled our many unique requests. Thank you!! read more

Outstanding!! Owners really take pride in what they do, which is everything!!! Deck is spectacular and sunny on good days with nice umbrellas and shade options... and inside would be great on a "Portland day" also!!! read more

Love this place! Great lunch, happy hour, and dinner spot. The food is amazing and the cocktails are even better! Great beer selection as well. Service is impeccable. I recommend the barnyard fries, chicken wings and the el diablo cocktail. Local Portland vibes, quiet inside and lots of outdoor seating if the weather is good. Covered outdoor area if it's raining. read more

Amazing staff, food is solid, and the beer list is amazing. They also have an outside deck to enjoy the summers in Oregon.

About 9 years since i was last here. interior even scruffier, but homey. tap list has doubled to 20, Excellent service. Had the brisket sandwich. bisket a bit dry but good melted chesse & grilled veggies, bun a little substandard. melba had the reuben which was okay, and much liked the jalapeno slaw read more

The wings were okay, pretty salty, maybe rinse the brine before cooking, The fries were good but the Rueben was way over cooked and the meat had no flavor. I do appreciate the wait staff taking 50% off the sandwich due to the poor quality. Had a few beers that were not that great but that's my fault for not checking untapped first. read more

Not enthusiastic about an hour and a half wait up the road at Little Griddle, my sister suggested we head over to Nepo 42. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available for our group of three. Outdoor is covered/tented with heaters, so we were sheltered and warm. Waitstaff was attentive. Short bloody mary with gin was the fucking best. If we were here for drinks this would be a 5-star review. The food, however, sort of missed the mark. Chicken n' Waffle ($16) was supposed to come with sage syrup but arrived plain and dry. When asked about it they brought over what tasted like regular maple syrup. Maybe the sage was just really subtle? A little disappointing. Huevos Rancheros ($14) was topped with a nacho cheese that did not do it any favors at all. I would not order this again, though I did like that it was accompanied by a side salad instead of something heavier. The Mr. October ($18 -- HOUSE-MADE BISCUIT TOPPED WITH FRIED CHICKEN, PEPPER BACON, AND EXTRA SHARP CHEDDAR. SERVED WITH YUKON GOLD BREAKFAST POTATOES). We requested no bacon and sub spinach instead. They left off the bacon and charged us $2 for adding spinach. Hardly seems like a fair trade, especially since we weren't informed of the additional cost when we ordered. This was a massive dish of food that easily made two meals, so the price wasn't too terrible if you take that into account. Definitely a meat-heavy menu but with a couple veggie/vegan options. I'd come back for drinks. read more

We just moved into the neighborhood and have been dying to check this place out. It came highly recommended by our neighbors. A short walk from out place! It has a wonderful outdoor patio that we are looking forward to using once we get warmer weather!! Hummus plate for appetizer was really good. Ruben, Wrap and Bowl were also very good and rich with bold flavors. Unfortunately service was very unpleasant. It seemed like our waitress was the only one working and didn't really want to be there... gave off a pretty negative vibe... Looking forward to trying it again for a better experience! read more

Wow! I housesit in the neighborhood frequently, and I have never had a bad experience at this establishment. Friendly staff, great tap list. Today I got the brisket sando with a side of the jalapeño coleslaw, and put it on the sandwich itself....game changer. Lots of people come on these platforms to complain, let's not forget to rate when we have an amazing experiences. :) read more

Came here for a Saturday brunch. No parking lot so use street parking. They have a great outside set up. They have a full bar and plenty of brews on draft. I ordered the chicken and waffle. It came with two chicken breasts and a giant waffle with bacon. Everything tasted great. read more

Awesome food and good menu. Sadly seem understaffed but they are really upfront if/when it will be along wait for food! Inside and outside tables are all great. Wild that this place is more packed! Parking can be tricky since there's not a parking lot and it's right on 42nd so just plan to street park, walk a min or two, and cross the street. Recommend: brunch, club sando read more

Mehhh. I feel like I've been here years ago and enjoyed it more, but I ordered a bunch of sides recently and was mostly unimpressed. Mashed potatoes? Deeeeply under-seasoned. Might not have been anything but potato. Fondue? Surprisingly bland as well. I added it to the mashers in hopes that it would liven them up, and ended up needing to add extra cheese (whyyyy?) and salt and seasoning to make it palatable. Felt more like roux than fondue. Greens? Pretty tasty. Would order again. Cornbread? Good but the consistency was strange to me for cornbread. A little dense, maybe. I'm sure I'll give it another go at some point, but not on my must-go list. read more

Always a solid place and food is on point! Great servers and nice to sit outside during the summer.

First time going here my amazing partner and I went here for a date night out. They were very welcoming and offered outdoor seating which is a huge plus. The outside was well lit and had big heaters out to keep you toasty warm. After we sat down the waitresses came over there was one in training they asked what we wanted started with a round of drinks I ordered a old fashion, it was well made perfectly paired with a hand sliced orange slice and a delicious cherry. My partner got a mascow mule and I had a few sips also tasty. While we were enjoying one another company we enjoyed the hummus platter which included fresh pita slides, and different toppings peppers, olives. Menu: https://www.toasttab.com/nepo42/v3#!/order COVID 19 Didn't check temp Had masked workers and gloves Offered hand sanitizer in restroom. Plan on spending about 40.00 + for two people. Definitely would come back here again parking is close and walking distance to bar. read more

Arrived on a Sunday morning 9:45am to get in line, but there wasn't anyone waiting. Service was prompted and our orders came out of the kitchen in reasonable time. Everyone enjoyed their breakfasts but... I ordered the Sampler with bacon at $14. Highlights were the biscuits and gravy (one had the mushroom gravy), the challah toast (french toast) and the south of the boarder hash. The bloody mary was one of the spicy my date has had. It wasn't very tomato flavored in fact it was so spicy she could not taste much of anything. She said she'd not have it again. $9, ouch. There was something major missing from the 2 beer selection boards. It lists the $ and ABV ( alcohol content) but not the far more important numbers, the IBU (International bitter units). If I were to come to have a beer, I'd have to look these up. By 10:45 it was packed and too noisy so we finished up and left about 11. We would not return again for breakfast but we'd try them for lunch and a beer that I'd have to research IBUs before ordering. We've heard the wings are super. read more

Our go-to spot immediately after arriving at PDX or about to get on a plane! Greatest burgers & beers anywhere. We roll in here & they take care of you quickly. Food always DELICIOUS & beer selection always PHENOMENAL. Even for portland. And that's saying a lot! Most places have good selection, NEPO42 is always top notch! The wings are also great here. We have not been disappointed once & look forward to our many happy returns. GO HERE!!! read more

This spot is a hidden gem for brunch! A friend suggested we go as they have outside seating and are super clean during the pandemic and we headed over at 11am on Saturday. No wait! Widow unheard of in Portland for brunch. We sat right away and had coffee in front of us within minutes. Good coffee too! The setup outside was sunny and clean which we relished. The menu is awesome with great options for veg or meat dishes across the board. Heads up that many items contain jalapeños for you spice lovers! My Breakfast Barnyard potatoes were GOOD. The fondue cheese was *chef's kiss* and the portions for all were huge. My friend's chorizo dish was good but they did forget to remove the jalapeños as requested so it did put a damper on things. Overall we ended up swapping as I love spice and the chorizo was a little too spicy as well. We both agreed mine was 10/10 but I did love the spicy jalapeños and chorizo in theirs :) Parking was fine but there's no designated lot. Service was perfect (beyond the kitchen jalapeño issue). Highly recommend! But shhhh! Don't tell everyone you know about it so we can have no wait brunch for a while. read more

My sister in law likes the impossible burger here so we tried it out. ( tried a bite- not a fan) I probably wouldn't go back and definitely wouldn't get a burger.. Meat was dry and didn't have much flavor.. even the bacon didn't have much flavor. Bun was good. My husband got a burger as well with blue cheese and bacon and didn't like it much. He likes his beer though. Fries were good at least! read more

After Portland Pizza Week I was in need of something remotely nutritious. The Healthy Bowl definitely satisfied. A few times I bit into an entire garlic clove so I wish they would dice them. And the jalapeño grits were good. Nobody checked on my meal until I was finished. The bartender guy with the bun was cool. No salt and pepper or spoons on the table. Lastly, the hot sauce selection is very weak. Still, a nice place to dine especially outside on a sunny day. read more

Have call multiple times on multiple days to place an order...never can. As a local, sad to never feel you can't support a local business, because the staff decides how busy it is. Was told the kitchen staff takes phone off the hook too...owners u see read more

The worst service I have seen in long time...I had to go and order another drink at the bar myself because the server ignored my attempts I was sitting with empty glass for 20 minutes... I ordered chicken wings they were barely warm and dry nothing special... This day I got really bad experience in this place... The only nice thing about this place is good draft list... read more

Went in on a Sunday around 1:30, sign up front said to seat yourself. We sat down in the main dining area near the bar. There were 3-4 servers working, about half the tables had customers. We sat about 15 minutes and no one came by our table. Figured they may have had a busy rush, and were still catching up, so we continued to wait. Tried making eye contact, but were completely ignored. After almost 30 minutes we got up and left. read more

I've been looking for chicken and waffles like they make back home at Roscoe's. No luck whatsoever. Tried all the places recommended and had given up. Went to NEPO 42 for the first time with friends for happy hour, and there they were! Honestly, I nearly didn't even order them since nothing had come close to what I hoped for. This was such an amazing surprise! I'll be back again and again and again. BTW, everything my friends ordered was also amazing. I tried the hotdog. So much flavor! Enjoyed all our drinks as well, and the one with grapefruit vodka shouldn't be missed. I normally get a Greyhound, but this was better. read more

Arrived with my wife and two kids. A server told us it would be ten minutes before they could seat us. As we waited out front, a child-free couple walked in after us and were seated immediately. The staff told them that the open table we were waiting for was theirs. We have had this same server before and she's always been rude and claims to be short staffed. If you're not kid friendly just put up a sign or advertise it so we don't waste my family's time trying to give you money. read more

freakin amazing food! love it! get me a bowl! get me a beer! bring my pup and come here!

I was very pleased. I ordered the full-sized wings on Grub hub and was very pleased. They were hot and the celery and carrots complemented the wings very well. I also made a new friend in the process with the delivery person because she was a patient for a hospital system I was in town interviewing for at the same time. Delicious food! read more
