About this business

Jackknife Bar is located at the upscale Sentinel hotel. This stylish cocktail lounge has a vintage vibe that's only enhanced by additions like wooden floors, a wrap-around marble bar, Art Deco lighting and more. A central fireplace creates a comfortable social space to mingle with fellow patrons, while more intimate nooks are ideal for couples. Moreish small plates satiate hunger pangs, and perfectly accompany a glass of wine or draft beer from one of their 12 taps. A discrete speakeasy also adds to the bar's throwback charm... read more

The bartenders are really cool and down to earth, overall vibe with the staff is the greatest. The DJ starts up and get the party cracking on Fridays and Saturday nights , all around good time!

I have been here multiple times. The DJ was horrible. We suggested more upbeat music. He wanted us to be kicked out at this moment. First we were allowed to dance where the DJ couldn’t see us. Then when we danced near the DJ stand, he required we left, and shined his flashlight in our face. The bouncer walked us to the door. We got kicked out because “the DJ is in a bad mood.” The bouncer said we hadn’t done anything wrong, yet their shitty DJ got to pick who stayed or left? We were paying customers trying to have a good tim... read more

So warm and cozy on a cold Portland day. Charcuterie tray, Brussel sprouts, cheese plate all excellent. The charcuterie, especially so. Service attentive. Drinks well made. Would go again and highly recommend for a late afternoon or early evening spot to kick back and relax!

Jack Knife ruined my wedding. More specifically, Annie, their events coordinator ruined my after party. I reached out to Jack Knife to rent the back area for my wedding after party.
