A small vibey bar with fun energy. Space is pretty limited so plan accordingly. We had a couple of drinks here and they're tasty! Craft, refined cocktails. They also have a filipino food menu when we're there but we didn't try any. Would be down to come back, especially later at night to catch their last call cookies! read more

The drinks are really good and the staff was very friendly! The overall vibe/look of the bar is cool as well. One thing that bothered me though (and I know maybe I'll get hate for this), is I feel like some of the decor is tone deaf. They have a bunch of colonial men ceramic decor, but they partner with and serve food from a Filipino company. I'm Filipino and it was a bit offensive to me because even if the point of having them is trying to make fun of them, it's not really funny. We were colonized for over 300 yrs and still deal with the trauma from it. Please consider removing the colonial decor. I really enjoyed the bar and want to enjoy it in the future, but I don't think it's necessary to have those things in the bar and doesn't add anything to how cool the bar is apart from that. UPDATE: the bar messaged me. They were super professional and kind in their response. I really appreciate that they were open to my perspective on the colonial items and said they will be removed. Thank you so much!! Looking forward to enjoying the bar in the future read more

TLDR: this is probably the best cocktail bar I have ever been to. I used to live a few blocks from here way back when I lived in Portland. Back then, there was an amazing business in here called The Cardinal Room (?). I loved it, they had a romantic cozy ambiance and incredible chicken sandwiches. While the food is gone, the unique, romantic ambience is back and the drinks here are next level. It's a cocktail bar that has amazingly crafted drinks but ZERO pretension about them. In fact, the service here is incredible. Friendly, fun, and frequent. They were very good at just making random creations based solely on flavors you like. But even if you are ordering on-menu, there is something here for everyone and none of the drinks are boring. I plan on coming back here every time I'm in Portland and...I WISH I still lived a couple blocks from here! read more

Too Soon is the bee's knees! Me and my friend spent a couple hours here during our recent trip to Portland, and it was by far my favorite bar experience. Our server was pleasantly boisterous and provided excellent recommendations, and I quickly noticed the mark of their high caliber bar program. So, I just let her surprise me with a cocktail each time I ordered another drink. They were all superb. I even took two of their Jell-O shots, which were the best I ever had. I DO NOT like Jell-O, by the way. The inside seating area was pulsating with energy each time I walked through to use their facilities. If it means anything to you, they were recently included in Esquire's list of The Best Bars in America 2025. read more

Top 25 bar in the country, really? If based on ambiance, there's a good vibe, but far from such an accolade. If based on menu offerings and taste, then it's certainly worthy. The Beekeeper cocktail was delicious and packed a good alcoholic punch. The cocktail with pandan was light and refreshing as expected. But the most memorable experience was the buffalo chicken sandwich on Happy Hour, so much better than expected! Many venues get their buns from a small selection of bakers such as Dos Hermanos, Fleur De Lis, etc., I don't remember ever tasting the wonderful bun used here. The tempura broccoli was meh, but at least not too greasy. Nice server, but when we inquired about our fish and chips order that was placed sometime ago, she indicated she never put it in. Lost revenue and tip, oh well. Maybe wait for the buzz to settle as getting a seat or table might be tough. read more

Cute bar with a great atmosphere. Very trendy but in a specific almost niche way. Street parking available all around, but we were able to walk. We were able walk-in the times we went. The bartenders are nice as well. The drinks were pretty good. We got the Old Fashioned and a couple other drinks. Also one of the nights, they had a Chicago pop-up called Over by Dere with interesting drinks. The had a pizza negroni! Too Soon is cute and I can't be back soon enough! read more

Stopped in here for a pre dinner drink. It is a smaller neighborhood restaurant bar space, they do also have outdoor seating. It is fairly dark inside but once your eyes adjust it's not so bad. The ambiance is great. It's decorated really fun and randomly when we were there they had bubbles going. The service was phenomenal with people coming around often to check on us without it being too much. They have a great cocktail menu with many different selections, all sounded great. Worth stopping in for a drink or two! read more

This is the coolest bar and they have such great mixologist that know exactly what they are doing! It's nice and dark on there so perfect for a date night because it is intimate. They also have some outdoor seating. The best thing about this bar is that they have a "bartenders choice" so you tell them what types of flavors you like and they will make a drink for you. The bartender asked us a few other questions like if we want an egg white in it and what type of alcohol. They absolutely nailed the drinks they were soo good! We also had one of their signature cocktails which was the "the right now" which has a good Smokey aspect too it and it has artichoke salt which is such an interesting taste. Overall, an amazing and intimate cocktail bar! read more

Stellar in EVERY way. Perfectly balanced cocktails, meats, outstanding food and beyond attentive service! Everything was on point. Believe all the reviews. Chill vibe and the staff are genuinely great human beings who care about your experience. The buffalo chicken sandwich was a standout and the portlight cocktail amazing. Run. Don't walk. It won't be "too soon" and before you know it, I'll be returning too! Even money says you will want to return after you go to here. So go to here! read more

Cute bar with a fun vibe just off Burnside. We checked it out while we waited to a table a Ken's Artisan Pizza down the road. I was glad to find a cool cocktail bar nearby to visit! I had the melon and pandan drink which I liked! My husband got the Last Rites which comes in a fun cup (he got the banana!) The staff were super friendly. I liked sitting at the bar and watching the bartender make drinks. I also heard other tables asking for them to make up something off the menu and they were happy to do that! read more

A very cool, trendy spot with a definite mood - but don't let the ambiance deter you from a fun time! The service was very friendly! Drinks were fun with their house special tonic and Japanese spirits. We also had fries, and I would just advise against eating here. It wasn't bad, but was overpriced bar food that made me feel gross afterwards. The drinks are the better choice! read more

Seth was a great bartender. Kareen (I'm probably spelling it wrong) was also great!! This place has some unique cocktails which is pretty cool. If you like flavor, this is your spot. Come here and enjoy something you've never tried before. They also have indoor and outdoor seating available. Would recommend this place for sure!!! read more

Too Soon is super cute and fun! My friend found this bar on instagram! It's more of an intimate setting I would say due to the dark ambiance and the red and blue disco effect lights. I ordered the melon and panda which was refreshing in a chilling ice glassed mug. My friend ordered the mango chili which I really enjoyed the tangy spice. My other friend ordered the barista's special which was cool that you get to be randomly surprised with a cocktail. But they're definitely will notify you in advance of the type of liquor. Menu is limited. The mushroom fitters were mushy. My friends liked the pork sliders and albacore though, so definitely try snacking on these small plates. The servers were super attentive and always checked in on my party. I would suggest going with a party of less than 7 people because it is a little bit smaller. read more

I'm going to keep this short and sweet. Servers 10/10, service 10/10, drinks 10/10. The menu says "the best vodka soda" and they meant it, it tastes like what I believe heaven feels like. Mind blown. I will be back! Very chill spot but what isn't in Portland? Definitely a core memory visiting here. read more

We had some time waiting for a table at a restaurant down the street. The bartender was great, she could tell we weren't sure what we wanted so said she could make something for us just needed to ask some questions. It was great she asked yes no questions like do you like creamy drinks, banana, citrus... I got a great citrus focused drink and my husband wanted something non alcoholic that night and got a fun mixture. Like the atmosphere and the friendliness of both bartenders, very inviting. Nice sit and bar and tables in the back. Like the drink wall. read more

We came here for after dinner cocktails and had a great time. The bartender and the staff were super friendly to us. We had him make us a variety of old fashioned cocktails. We also notice that they have a Haku vodka machine to make highballs, first Haku machine I've seen. Now I know where to get some super fizzy drinks. read more

Um EXCELLENT cocktail bar! It opened about a month ago and I have already been about 4 or 5 times. First - cocktails are excellent, highballs are the specialty, and they are actually significantly better than most, the soda water alone is bomb! My favorite drink is the Melon and Pandan, but I've been trying to mix it up and every other drink I've had has also been delicious. There are some really uniquely flavored drinks like Celery & Shiso, which was GREAT, but definitely not run of the mill. I've been enjoying the bartender's choice - just tell them the your flavor profile! On top of great cocktails, ambiance is great -music has been ON POINT, a lot of variety and creates the vibe. Lighting is cool - large moon-like colorful lights that I love. Fun vibes - perfect for friends or like a "keep the date going" and def will be in during the week for a casual drink. The food I tasted was also delish- enjoyed the chicken sandwich and the sauce that comes with the fries ALOT. Obviously, I'll be returning and would def recommend. read more

The service was amazing! My first time there and I got 2 orders of the " bartenders choice" and they nailed it each time! I just gave the description of what I like and they did the rest! Also they served the BEST espresso martini Jell-O shots! Definitely would recommend checking out! read more

This is one of the sexiest bars in Portland that I know of. Great ambiance, wonderful food, and amazing bartenders! They offer fabulous drinks as well as non-alcoholic beverages that are amazing. This is a great place for date night, or to hang out with your friends. Must see!!! read more

Came here after dinner (on a Thursday night) and was pleasantly surprised!! My husband and I both got bartender's choice and it was always a hit. The bartender was super knowledgeable and created unique drinks we never had before! It seemed like he was really good at reading us and knowing what we would like. This is a great place if you appreciate a good artistic cocktail and want to have an intimate experience with your partner or friends. The place was super vibey and it wasn't too loud. This is one of those places I would want to go to end date night with my hubby! :) read more

Couldn't pass up the signature banana cocktail glass, so made a visit to Too Soon. Was absolutely wow'd by the purple pink glow just passing by this place. They really set a really fun almost tiki ambiance. For drinks, they actually have the option to give details of strong to sweet and let the bartender do the work or choose from a nice list of options. I simply had to get the crushed ice banana drink and my partner a mai thai in another glass. It looks from socials they have a bunch if really fun ones, even a little racecar. For food, the crudo was fantastic, with a glaze that we finished till the last drop. I thought sliders would be smaller, but these were almost burgers! A very welcome surprise at the prices they had for them. Servers here all seemed to have a lot of fun. One bartender blasted a bubble gun in the air which made for such a colorful scene with the disco balls and neon lights in this place. Couldn't believe how cool this spot was, and will definitely be back for more. I wonder which cocktail glass I'll end up with next time! read more

We are writing this without chat gpt so give us a break. Where do we start? The vibes are almost as good as their drinks which are almost as fantastic as their team. You can tell love was poured into the idea of this bar and everything that goes into it. Their food is delicious and their drinks give you a reason to go out. It's fun. It's dark. There's bubbles and swinging lights and it's the best place. We tell all our friends about Too Soon and you should too. :) read more

What a fun new bar - the colors and ambiance instantly draw you in! You walk in and are greeted by friendly staff and great music! I love that the menu is straight forward - with a handful of cocktails to pick from and then a leave it to the experts twist. I did the leave it to the experts and chose the citrus / refreshing profile. They asked me if there were spirits I preferred / disliked and any other notes. I kept it broad and just mentioned I didn't like vodka - they came back with an awesome, and totally refreshing, drink! Look forward to coming back. read more

Have you drank from a rabbit or a boot? Have you ever had a tequila with absinthe? Have you ever had a server ask you a string of innocuous, probing questions like a personality test or a pleasant first date? Look, I don't want to give away any of what makes this place special, so if you want a couple of drinks with friends and are OK to spend $15 on each, then go here and try it out. It's quirky and lovely and their cocktails were some of the best I've ever had. Give it a shot. read more

I love this place. The drinks are always amazing. The house special is one of my favorites. On top of that the food is equally amazing. I will just note that it can be a tad loud/dark, but nonetheless I'm a big fan. read more

I got a sneak preview last night of this new bar. They did a great job remodeling the former space, and the new back bar catches the eye right away. Cozy spot that seems capable of handling a variety of different sized groups as well as being inviting to the solitary wander. Good lighting, comfortable seats, and an affordable, well executed menu. I tried a couple items but what really stood out were the beignets. Very delicious and not overly sweet. A late night dessert provider can be difficult to find so I'm certain I will find myself back here. All and all a welcome addition to the neighborhood. read more

Too Soon - Great back bar. - Lounges Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Before I get ready to head to a SUPER Funsies, Burning Man Event, I MUST write this review. I've watched this establishment being built and even offered to consult with the owner. I'm NOT sure who he consulted with but it is VERY likely a rapist. Food, shit, music too LOUD, that's perfect to drown out screaming. I mean, we all know a casual date night place has music, the level for quiet, get-to-know-you conversation. On my last visit, I was actually scared, Too scared even to pee. The hall is lined in black. Take a peek at the video filing situation to the right when you first go in. I've been an advocate for sex workers, marginalized community members, and vulnerable populations for MANY years! I watch and listen for signs of date rape establishments. I've not only been an educator for Harm Reduction, I'm an entertainer, work closely with government officials, and have been in event productions and festivals for MANY years; I'm also a PISSED of woman who also has been drugged and raped many FUCKing times! Avoid this place, especially if your date was set up on a dating app. TRUST me, I know. My next step is an investigation, I mean have you seen the surgical gloves laying around outside. I'm repulsed and disgusted. Go Anywhere next door, ASHA, Navarre. read more

WARNING - DO NOT GO TO THIS BAR MY FRIEND AND I THINK WE WERE DRUGGED THERE TWO NIGHTS AGO (This is not a statement of fact since we did not get tested, but it is our experience and the only conclusion we could come to) We sat at the bar (the only two there), and after drinking only two cocktails each, we completely blacked out for hours. At some point, we were separated and wandered through the streets, trying to get home. Luckily we didn't get in our cars and drive (only because we were too incapacitated to do so). My friend fell at some point and is badly bruised and scraped up. We came to about four hours later and were completely disturbed by this experience. STAY SAFE, AVOID THIS BAR!! read more

10/10 highly recommend. The staff is amazing and the cocktails are spot on! I haven't had food here yet, but I'll definitely be back. This is easily my new favorite cocktail bar! It's a good place to hang with friends or also for a cute date. read more
