Great spot to grab a quick drink and some food. The dogs are a little spendy, but then again you're not just getting your average dog. They have a long list of creative yummy options. The ambiance is more of a bar than anything else but the outside patio is spacious and nice! Lots of cool art. They also have a lot of lawn games and do trivia on Thursdays. Service was really quick and friendly.

Seattle Dog

Five stars for late night drunken hot dogs!!! I've been to this place a few times. They have a big back patio. The vibes are usually pretty chill. Back to the hot dogs! I had my first Seattle dog here, which is a little ironic. Then again, I technically had my first Chicago here - had them as a kid in Chicago - but picked off half the toppings. Adults, do not pick off your toppings. Eat the dog the way it I supposed to be or order something different. The Seattle Dog is strange, it might have been a special and not on the regular menu. The flavors work, but I don't know it would be my go to dog. The Chicago Dog is so filling and feels like a meal! I'll be back to try some more. Stop by late night and try one the hotdogs.

So we were just in the area and hungry, wanting hot dogs and decided to try Zach's. I wasn't sure what to expect but it kind of just had a dive bar feel with good servers and friendly patrons. I love all the variety of toppings. Plenty of places do basic dogs but I'd been wanting something a little more special. TBH, for the price I want something I can't just do myself better (ie chili dogs). I ordered a few so I could try a few and share. I thought the concept of wings interesting just because they actually put baby carrots on it. There's lots to choose from and I pretty much like any hot dog because, it's still a hot dog. The prices are pretty much what I've seen anywhere else. They were complaining the the actual hot dogs were very low quality. I can't disagree, but I'll still be back to try different toppings. For me it's more about the toppings so if that's your jam too then you'll like it here.

Double Chicago Dog

In a city of amazing food, this is the only spot I hit multiple times per Portland trip. Best chicago dog outside of IL, great indie rock aesthetics and playlist, awesome staff.

Bartender is always nice, food is great, and they have great drinks. Ping pong, giant connect four, and card games are always available. Best bar in this part of Hawthorne. Back patio is sick

The Chicago style Dogn Yes, this is a real thing. And it's amazing.

This place is divy but it's a classic, and open laaate, and has Chicago Dogs! My dream is to open a restaurant next door to Zach's Shack and call it "Nick's Kobe (kinda like Ruth's Chris)" Get it?

Always delicious. Always fun. Always Zach's. Great veggie options for really terrific hot dogs. I keep coming back to fill up my belly AND my punch cards.

Zach's favorite add chili

Best chili dog I've had yet, easy friendly experience, just yum ( plus it's a cozy bar with outdoor patio and games!)

Cheese fries! Huge serving

My boyfriend and I came here for some late night eats last weekend because I was craving hot dogs like crazy! There's really not tons of places in Portland you can get them, and we live in SE, so I knew we had to finally try Zach's Shack. And before I fully start my review, I am giving them 4 stars based on exactly what they are... a little dive bar/restaurant that serves hot dogs. When I read the negative reviews, it made me feel like people are just expecting too much. It's hot dogs ya'll. It's pretty basic! When we walked in around 9pm, it was empty except for a table in the back and someone at the bar. They only have one person working the counter so if they're busy, be patient! It was too hard to pick one dog, so we both got two. And we got stuffed and could barely finish... I was shocked because so many people claimed these dogs were "too small". They really pile on the toppings, too! We ordered: - Cheese fries (and when these came out, I was like no way we're going to finish these, the portion was huge! But we did because they were just so simple and delicious). - New York Dog (this was definitely my favorite!) - James Brown (also delicious, loved the sour cream) - Zach's Favorite Dog - Their special that day (can't remember what it was, but it had coleslaw and it was amazing!) New York Dog and the special they had were our favorites. We will definitely pass on Zach's Favorite Dog next time, but wanted to try it this time since it was our first visit. The pickle spear and celery salt was just a bit much. All in all, it's a cute little spot with some decent food for your drunchies. We did get a couple drinks as well and I thought the customer service was good.

A small vibey bar with fun energy. Space is pretty limited so plan accordingly…read more 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!

The drinks are really good and the staff was very friendly! The overall vibe/look of the bar is…read morecool 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

The ambiance hits the perfect note--it feels intimate and elevated, making it an ideal spot for a focused conversation or a stylish night out. The house venue itself is stunning, blending classic architectural charm with modern, thoughtful touches that make the entire space feel like a hidden gem. As for the menu, the drinks are truly amazing. Each cocktail is balanced and beautifully presented, mirroring the high-end feel of the surroundings. Whether you're there for the design inspiration or a perfectly crafted drink, Fox Trot delivers an experience that is consistently polished and impressive. Portland has plenty of spots for a drink, but few manage to balance atmosphere and artistry quite like this. I'll definitely be back.

I definitely want to return when I'm feeling my outfit more cause the whole place honestly is really unique. If you're a 90s baby you remember that cool house with all the glass bottles that was so creative and cool in Hariet the spy? It feel like the whimsy of that. You go to the patio area to order and they were so kind and also very quick with the drink orders. We came a morning after a busy weekend so they were out of little thing which was no problem they recommended similar things that worked out in the end! Very fun vibes will be back!
