Rigby Yard

Known For
Warehouse-scale room that somehow still feels intimate
Rigby Yard has the bones of an old warehouse — exposed brick, high ceilings, moody atmosphere — and the wine program to back up the aesthetic. Cozy nooks carved into a larger space make it feel more intimate than it actually is.
🕐Best time to visit: Thursday evenings when it's lively but not packed
Our Take
Rigby Yard's moody vintage interior and cozy nooks make it one of the more atmospheric places to settle in with a glass in Portland — the kind of room that encourages you to order another round. It sits right at the standout local favorite threshold, held back slightly by a rating that suggests a more mixed experience than its best nights would imply.
