🍻 The Historic Multnomah Village Safe Harbor

Known as a relaxed hangout where regulars and newcomers mingle over pool, pinball, and lottery games, The Ship offers a rare glimpse of unrefined, vintage Portland. It remains a cherished sanctuary of community, character, and laid-back Pacific Northwest hospitality.
