Editor’s picks from published local guides
  • The Slammer Tavern, a perennially decked-out dive bar in inner Southeast Portland, keeps Christmas going all year long: string lights run from floor to ceiling, and wreaths, tchotchkes and holiday kitsch cover nearly every visible surface. During the holidays the tiny room fills with office parties, and locals and tourists alike pack the well-worn rail. Don't expect fancy cocktails or frills. Order a bottom-shelf boilermaker or a pint and settle in with the friendly neighborhood crowd.
