McMenamins Ringlers Pub

Beneath Portland's Crystal Ballroom, this former service garage now hosts billiards, pinball, and a whiskey selection topping 160 varieties. The decor leans bohemian-quirky, with a circus-like clutter that gives first-timers plenty to take in. McMenamins' own beers are on tap, and food runs to burgers and onion rings—though one regular found the kitchen inconsistent, while another praised quick service and friendly staff. It's a lively spot for a one-time look around rather than a destination meal.
